Tournament Circuit Info
From the Games Workshop site:
Over the years Games Workshop has had a multitude of different tournaments; Grand Tournaments, Rogue Traders, 'Ard Boyz, Iron Man, Doubles, Campaign Narratives, etc.
Starting in January 2010, Games Workshop will be embarking on something far more Grand. We will search for the North American Champion of 40K, Fantasy, and War of The Ring on an annual basis.
The new Tournament Circuit going forwards will run from June until May each year. The circuit is made up predominantly of Independent Tournaments from around North America which are put on by gaming clubs or groups. The Ard Boyz Tournament Finals can also earn entry into the North American Finals.
In the past the Tournament Circuit has run from January until December. To allow for the above change the first new circuit will be 18 months long starting in January 2010 and ending in May 2011. The Champion for each game system will be decided in the summer of 2011 in Las Vegas at a Games Workshop hosted Event. Here you will need a fully painted and based Army for your particular game system. Check the website frequently for specific rules and point values for the Vegas Finals.
The Vegas Finals are by invitation only.So, how do I get an invitation?The top two finishing places in each game system in each Independent Tournament on the Circuit will receive an invitation to play in the Vegas finals in 2011.
If you don't make it into the top two places in one Tournament you can try again in another Tournament on the Circuit.
The first circuit features 70 Events over the 18 months. They have a wide geographical spread across the North American Continent.
