This system was based primarily on the last CP comp (if you look at the items that are limited, they are mostly the same). What was changed was the tiered...
1)How many troops at max size? Still hammers necron, chaos, sisters, Black Templars, et al. Not sure of a way to reconcile this without getting overly...
... I agree here. With either of the two armies I have/am building I get under 30, and closer to 20 (depending on some of the answers to some of the other ...
The tournament Saturday is almost full! So if you want to play call the store or come by today to put your name down. Sorry for the late notice, but we haven't...
It's been fun to read all the thoughts on composition since the Capital Punishment tournament but I do have a question: Aren't we loosing sight of the main...
Many of the players that attend GT Tournaments are very competitive players and want to maximize the scores they have control over as much as possible to...
I want to thank all 32 of you that came to the first Contest of Champions of 2006. I was blown away by the turnout and, quite honestly, a bit overwhelmed. Had...
So, I've been working on my SOB army for the next CP and I had a question for y'all. I will have a display board that will have "holes" for each of my armies...
put them all holes will look bad IMO. =) Doc Dragon <docdragonis@...> wrote: So, I've been working on my SOB army for the next CP and I had a question...
Hi Doc, No you would not be docked points. We can't punish you because tournaments vary in points. As long as the board is complete you are fine. Gary Doc...
Hey all, Are any of you guys up North thinking of running some events at KublaCon this year? Please contact me off-list: jason@... Cheers! Jason Ellis...
So lets talk about comp rules. The comp for the latest CoC are, I feel, way out of balance. Taking a comp hit for having more than 3 ap2 weapons in an 1850...
I thought I remembered (probably somewhere around CoC #2) that the comp had been "scaled" for the 1250 points for that tournament. I might be wrong. I'd have...
Ok, here are a few questions from the current comp list: 1. Why 50% of the points on troops? Why not 45? 50% is HUGE. 2. Can the infiltrating % be changed...
... 40% was the standard for a long time, both in GW sanctioned and indy events. Im not a fan of being penalised for having 'only' 40% troops, but this is not...
... They're searching for the Holy Grail: A comp system everybody can live with. Haven't ever seen one myself. At which point, you just kinda have to say "why...
Well, as I've read all your posts so far I would like to say that I don't agree with all the comp ideas for CP, but that said, I will enjoy playing anyway. The...
... Oh yes. I always enjoy playing, rather than not, and I did have fun last year. ... I agree. Anybody who takes on running a tourney is immune to criticism ...
Hey Guys, I am not ignoring the debate on comp, I am simply not going to get caught up in the debate like last year. I will pay attention to concerns and make...
Great. Thanks Gary. First - I'm going to play, comp or not, and I'm going to try and tailor my army to the comp of the moment, choosing to ignore comp where...
Gary, My thoughts are simply, Why do gaming groups try to set comp systems when GW does many many years of play testing. The game is very balanced. You can...

... I agree, Tim, but I have seen NO comp system that corrects this. They just move the base line around from one army to another. ... And I think the current...
i think yes it is a good idea to try something but.. i think in my opinion that the same people are gonna win as usual no matter what way comp is due to the...

It doesn't look to me like the majority feel that the comp is terrible... just that a few things need to be loostened up to allow more flexibility in the army...

... Here's one to ponder, Gary. Last year, my Tau scored a 26 out of 30 in that comp system (86.7%), and went 3-2-0. Not exactly an overpowering record. That...
