Rules Updates

There were quite a few changes in the new Comprehensive Tournament Rules. I've highlighted some of them here:

1.2.3 Subsequent round pairings will no longer be random but will instead depend purely upon tournament standings (VPs, etc).

1.2.6 I am no longer allowed to play in events that I run so in the future I will only be playing in the case of byes (which will, of course, have no effect on the bye).

1.2.12 If you use a custom sculpt then you MUST also have an unmodified version of the figure with you which you must use instead if your opponent wishes it.

2.3.1 You now bring one BFC for each round of the tournament instead of one per round and a dud. However you may choose to use a dud (which can be a feat, an ATA, or any other game element of the same size) every round. Also, the revealing to your opponent of which BFCs you have available is no longer mandatory but you must reveal them if your opponent asks.

4.6.3 Battle Royales are always Team-Ups but the round ends as soon as one player of a team is eliminated. In the second round, instead of the game ending when one player is eliminated, it becomes a three-way match and continues until only one player remains.

--------------------------

And there were also a couple of things I'd previously overlooked in the Player's Guides that I thought y'all might like to know about:

The Tombstone's defense bonus is no longer optional but it is still only destroyed in the case of an unsuccessful attack.

The Desk, on the other hand, is still optional but is destroyed when used regardless of whether or not the attack succeeds.
