Adepticon – Doubles – Introduction





This event was 1200 points per player doubles event.  There were no lords allowed and no special characters.  Also, magic items could not be duplicated, nor could BSB.  The normal doubles rules were used, but deployment was done 1 drop per player per turn.  We also did one scout and one vanguard per player per turn, though those weren’t in the rules specifically.

All the terrain was fixed, and pretty much the same per table, with two forests, two hills, 1 impassible or water feature and 1 building (though on some it was a pyramid people tended to use as a third hill).

The points break down was 20 per game with a 20 for win, 13 for draw and 7 for loss breakdown.  There were also up to 3 points for both Battle and Objectives per mission.  There was a 12 point for the event reward for taking different contingents, 12 points for having a story that matched your army (worth only 3 with an unmatched story), 30 for sports and 25 for appearance.

I didn’t see any combinations on display that I didn’t want to play against, though there were a few that I thought would be rough, such as the double organ gun, triple bolt thrower dwarf/high elf pair.  Sean didn’t think that such a list would bother us though.

All forests were mysterious.

This was Sean and my third team event.  For the event we used a story that Sean had written for a previous event that required a story.  It’s one I’m sure we will continue to use as long as we are team Double Death.


Here are some pics of what is the best army I have EVER seen.  They were running it as Chaos Dwarves and Skaven.
