with Mercs started up and Arena of death only with 3 matches left thought i might as well start up arena of death V.
Character Creation:
Combatants must be a non-vechile unit from any army (no assassins, venerable dreadnoughts, or greater daemons). The unit must be legal within its army list restrictions and requirements and may not be worth more than 250 pts. You may have more than one model; command squads, retinues, wolves, thralls, etc. are allowed. No vehicles or mounts are allowed. This includes Space Marine Bikes, jump packs, Juggernauts of Khorne, etc. Minor psychic powers are allowed. No special characters will be allowed, the only exception being the Emperor’s Champion (who must be taken as is – no additional wargear). You may only choose from 1 unit entry. There is a limit of 15 models, and no more. This is about cool battles, not swarm tactics! Other than these restrictions, you are free to choose as you like.
Starting the Fight
Two models/teams enter; one model/team leaves. Both models set up 6" apart. There is no cover or terrain! The Arena is featureless and empty and goes on into infinity!
Shooting & Charging
A D6 is rolled and added to the initiative of the majority minis, who ever scores the highest gets to charge. Both parties will get to shoot first and who shoots first is determined in the same manner. After that combat is as normal (by Initiative). In the event of a tie (mutual simultaneous death), the victory will go to the one who has scored the highest number of wounds, including overkill.
Special Rules
The Hand of God: In the Arena of Death; I AM GOD. I roll the dice and I post the results. This ensures the impartiality of the fight.
Splitting Attacks: Models in the Arena of Death that are armed with more than one weapon for Close Combat may choose to make a certain number of their attacks with particular weapons. by default all of your attacks will be made with your most powerful weapon unless you state otherwise.
Disclaimer:
I will be responsible for rolling any and all dice associated with this arena, as a normal human being i cannot predict the vageries of fate and hence anything that happens in the arena is entirely dictated by luck. To maintain impartiality i will not be entering the arena myself.
OOC: if anyone has a problem or wants me to place restrictions on other units PM me please.
Let this latest incarnation of the arena of death begin!
Yep, i did copy and paste with a couple of minor additions and subtractions. Point is, yep, carnifexes, rippers, scarabs, immortals, flayed ones and everyone else is allowed, and the best part is up to 250!!! pts is allowed. So, what with all this new flexibility, let it begin!
EDIT: Actually screw it, i'll play but remain impartial.
