Warhammer 40k 10th Ed. League:  Pariah Nexus 2024 (August/September)

The purpose of this page is to create a standardized rule set for league play using the current edition and evolving rules of the 40k game. This is to provide a clear understanding of what you can expect when you play at Muse Comics & Games, and the way that the league will be organized and structured.  Our mission as organizers is to encourage players to have FUN, centered in the Warhammer 40k hobby.

• This season we will host and Competitive Open Play League. (Standings at bottom of this page, undated weekly)
• League will have an open play period that will culminate to a play-off bracket. This means players can play and participate anytime they want!
• OPEN PLAY means games can be played at any time in-store or at home during the open play period of this season!!
• We have 2 tables available in-store with terrain assortments that are free to use (1st come-1st serve). These tables can be used anytime our gaming center area is open (check our current schedule for times). A 3rd & 4th table may be set up if needed on request basis provided our other paid events don’t need the table space.
• TABLES ARE ONLY AVAILABLE DURING REGULAR GAME CENTER HOURS (provided below)
• Games must be reported to Muse Comics in-store, over the phone, or email to be accounted and updated to league standings
• Join our DISCORD to communicate with other players and connect to schedule games!
• PARIAH NEXUS MISSION DECK WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR IN-STORE GAMES (WE ONLY HAVE ONE DECK TO LEND OUT)

PLAYER GUIDELINES (both leagues):

• Players MUST provide a copy of their army lists (Point cost of models and upgrades included) to their opponent during the “muster armies” stage of each game. We suggest exporting txt-based lists (battlescribe, ect.) to your opponent.
• Players need to arrive prepared for their game. Examples:
  • Dice
  • Measuring tape
  • Rulebooks and Codex and/or Datacards
  • Charged devices if using electronic rule sources
  • Wound counters
  • Line-of-Sight devices/lasers (pew-pew)
  • Glue (MEDIC!!)
• Players are expected to know their army well enough that they can find rules & list specifics, should your moves, plays, special abilities or point values be questioned.
• Y.S.I.W.Y.G. Player’s armies and miniatures must be modeled to include any upgrade equipment and/or weaponry that the figure has paid to use in the game. Examples:  Power weapons, heavy and medium weapons like Lascannons and melta-guns, vehicle weapons like Hunter Killer-Missiles, etc.  Vehicles must be fully modeled to display all its additional weaponry options if taken.
• 3D printed models and 3rd party models ARE NOT ALLOWED. Bitz/conversions are allowed but fully 3D printed models will not be allowed.
• Horde armies must have some way of distinguishing individual units. This can be color coding, conversions, decals, bases etc.
• Forge World models and rules may be used if they are approved models and/or rules for use in GW open events. (Battlescribe & GW 40K App list legal units). Forgeworld models standing in as models from the 40K source materials is allowed as long as the model is on it’s correct base size.
• TOXIC & UNSPORTMANLIKE BEHAVIOR will not be tolerated.
  • Crushing new players under your heal and apologizing for O.P. rules isn’t fun for anyone.
  • The universe is grimdark enough…lift each other up while you try to obliterate one another.

Competitive League: is designed for experienced players looking for a challenge and/or players looking to practice for high level play like GW Opens Events. This league will be 2000pt games using the most current FAQ, codex books, mission sets and terrain/board layouts.

• All players must abide to the army construction rules for 10th ed and play a 2000 point army (MAX).
• Structures/terrain features on the base/outline of terrain count as line of sight blocking on the ground floor. (example: Models may shoot and be seen if they are on the base/outline of terrain unless they are behind a terrain structure on the ground floor of that base/outline.)
