Tournament round Les champs de Sénart

Control the centre of the battlefield, no matter the cost

The players choose their army, which must have the same number of points as that of the opponent, according to the rules on the previous pages.

The layout section of each Scenario will tell you about any notable features of the battlefield, such as key pieces of terrain used as objectives, or the placement of Objective Markers. The rest of the battlefield is up to you, and will allow you to create battlefields themed around different locations in Middle-earth. We would always recommend a minimum of 33% of the board to be covered in terrain so there are plenty of interesting aspects for models to fight around.
The quickest (and fairest) way to set up a battlefield is for one person to set up the terrain and then the other player to automatically win the roll-off to decide which deployment zone they want. Alternatively, you and your opponent can alternate placing terrain features (which can range from trees and walls, to entire forests and buildings) until you are both happy that there is enough terrain to make for an interesting game.
Whichever method you choose, you should do whatever you can to ensure the battlefield evokes the imagery of Middleearth, and also presents an interesting and challenging strategic situation for both players.
. Once the battlefield has been set up, an Objective Marker is placed in the centre of the battlefield.

At the battle’s start, the Armies are yet to arrive – models are not deployed at the start of the game, but will enter as the game continues (see Special Rules later).

Roll 1D6, the player with the highest number goes first. In case of a tie, reroll the dice.

Once one Army has been Broken, the game might suddenly end. At the end of each turn, after this condition has been met, roll a D6. On a 1-2, the game ends – otherwise, the battle continues for another turn.
At the end of the game, the player who has scored the most Victory Points wins the game. If both players have the same number of Victory Points, the game is a draw

You score 4 Victory Points if you have more models within 6" of the objective than your opponent. If you have twice as many models within 6" of the objective than your opponent, then you instead score 8 Victory Points. If you have three times as many models within 6" of the objective than your opponent, or you are the only player to have models within 6" of the objective, then you instead score 12 Victory Points.
You score 1 Victory Point if the enemy General was wounded during the game. If the enemy General was removed as a casualty, you instead score 3 Victory Points.
You score 1 Victory Point if the enemy Army is Broken at the end of the game. If the enemy Army is Broken and your Army is not, you instead score 3 Victory Points.
You score 2 Victory Points if your opponent has no banners remaining at the end of the game (if they didn’t have a banner to start with, you automatically score this).

Players fight to control five objectives scattered across the battlefield.

The players choose their army, which must have the same number of points as that of the opponent, according to the rules on the previous pages.

Place five Objective Markers on the battlefield; one is automatically placed in the centre of the board. To place the other objectives, both players roll a D6. The player with the highest score places one objective anywhere on the battlefield at least 12" away from the existing objective and 6" away from any board edge. Their opponent then places a third objective at least 12" away from existing objectives and at least 6" away from any board edge. The players then alternate placing the remaining two objectives, according to the restriction noted earlier.

Both players roll a D6 – the player with the highest result chooses one of the deployment zones. They then select a Warband in their Army to deploy wholly within 24" of their board edge. Models must be deployed within 6" of the Captain of their Warband.
When this has been done, the opposing player chooses one of their Warbands and deploys it wholly within 24" of their board edge, as described above. Players then alternate until all of their Warbands have been placed.

Roll 1D6, the player with the highest number goes first. In case of a tie, reroll the dice.

The game lasts until the end of a turn in which one Army has been reduced to a quarter (25%) of its starting number of models or below, at which point the player that has scored the most Victory Points wins the game. If both players have the same number of Victory Points, the game is a draw.

For each Objective Marker, you score 1 Victory Point if you have more models within 3" than your opponent. If you have at least twice as many models as your opponent within 3", you instead score 2 Victory Points. If you are the only player to have models within 3", you instead score 3 Victory Points.
You score 1 Victory Point if the enemy General was wounded during the game. If the enemy General was removed as a casualty, you instead score 2 Victory Points.You score 1 Victory Point if the enemy Army is Broken at the end of the game. If the enemy Army is Broken and your Army is not, you instead score 3 Victory Points
