Match duration: the time for each round will be 65-75 minutes.

Rules: the rules in use are the DBA 3

Army lists: the Army must be chosen among those included in the rule book sections 1 to 4. The same option of the chosen Army must be used for all the 4 rounds. Army lists with variants must be decided at the start of the competition and may not be changed between rounds.

Pairing procedure: First round random. From the second round on pairings will be made from top to bottom of the first round standings as follows: 1st vs. 2nd, 3rd vs. 4th and so on. In no case will two players play twice against each other.

Terrain: A selection of terrain will be available, but players are encouraged to bring own supply to ensure available options for their army type can be met.

End of match: ten minutes before time will be called by Referees. At expiration of playing time, the game will continue until completion of the defending player's bound.

Scoring system: Victory: 12 points, less the number of elements lost. Draw: 4 points, +/- the difference between elements destroyed and elements lost. Defeat: 0 points, plus number of elements destroyed. (enemy general is worth 2 points for this purpose).

If at the end of a bound both players have destroyed 4 enemy elements, the battle goes on until, at the end of a turn, one player has destroyed more elements than his opponent. In any case at the end of the battle the loser cannot score more than 4 points and the winner less than 8. Players will be required to fill in a score sheet at end of the match, and will give it to the TO. Players are also required to check that the correct number of points are awarded at the end of each game. Tie-breakers at the end of the Tournament are:
1) Generals destroyed.
2) Difference between elements destroyed and lost.
3) Number of elements destroyed. Place
