| Right as its my turn to design(Damien is busy and i came second)Â ive chosen the following format:
-300 points.
-You're band must have 2 figures from each faction
-Each faction may have a maximum of 100 points spent on it and a minimum of 50.
-Two of the same figure are not allowed in your band
-You may have up to 1 figure that is split faction in any way, it may take up one slot from your choice of one of the factions it may be in.
-Maximum of 2 commander
-Minions do not count towards faction limit.
-Creatures can not have their faction changed via a warband building effect.
-I have selected the following figures to be un-available for use as I believe they would be over used:
Couatl
Inspiring marshal
Snig the Axe
Orc wardrummer
Drider Sorceror (obviously)
(Snig just because I dont think 3 minions in 1 piece is fair peticularly.
Please send entries to : thefroffenhoffer@hotmail.co.uk or jndggroverceg@aol.com with RE: WBC(or something similiar)
With your entries band, map choice and a brief paragraph with you strategy.
Also please give your maxminis name in case you win, so i know who you are.
If your band is identical to someone elses, first come first served, I will email you telling you its identical.
Cheers and good luck.
Entry closes on sunday night, just before 10pm UK TIME(when i must busy myself watching lost)
Edit: Could someone sticky this?
Edit2: It should always have said 2 commanders. | |

Isn't it WBC VIII? Indeed. I edited the title and stickied the thread. Now I have to spend some time making a band for this.

| Ah, I like this idea.
Funnily enough, I was thinking of a warband with Couatl, Wardrummer, Inspiring Marshal and Snig before I saw the ban list.  | |

Does the 70% rule apply? Can we use epic versions of creatures?

You can only have a max of 100 pts per faction in a 300 point band, so no. | |

| If you find an epic with 97 points or less, then the answer could be yes. (And I know there are some...)
But perhaps Froffenhoffer don't want to... | |

| Rules state 100pt max per faction, so cant use an epic piece.
Email sent to both addresses, I assumed no epic pieces, and stayed under the 70% of 200pts rule. even though 300pts.
I had to resubmit due to missing that 100pt per faction rule (cant mkae it 102?).
Thanks for running it and coming up with system. | |

| So, any piece that costs 97 or more points cannot be used (otherwise the 100-point max per faction limit will be violated). And, while low-cost pieces can be used, doing so threatens the size of other pieces (for example, no one can use a Duergar Champ and a Kobold Miner).
I suppose it's good that none of us has to worry about being assaulted by Archmages.

This is deliberately unstickied? Stickied threads have an unusual habit of unstickying themselves. (Really.)
Sorry about that.

I'm guessing that others utilize these WBCs as an exercise in entertainment as well as an exercise in warband building. It's not that I think my band can't do well, but I am willing to try things here that I might not try otherwise.
(Of course, it's kinda hard to not be in this position, given the unusual nature of the challenges.)
