Iron Kingdoms: Hardcore

Miniature / Warmachine and Hordes / 8 - 32 players / 3 sessions
by Edd Brgoc

Hardcore is a 750 point tournament for Warmachine and Hordes, using the Privateer Press "Hardcore" tournament format.

Players may bring one army list, using the following restrictions:

  • Both armies must be chosen from the same faction.
  • 750 points per army
  • Timers will be used - players have 7 minutes to complete each turn.
  • At the end of each game's allotted time, "dice down" will be called. At this time, all games immediately end if they haven't already done so.
  • All rounds will use the Assassins scenario

Full rules can be found in the official Hardcore rules pack

Note that this is an unofficial tournament, and does not require 32 players to run. The Arcanacon Hardcore tournament is a good chance for dedicated players to try out Privateer's most gruelling event format. It's also a good warm-up to Australia's next official Hardcore event at GenCon Oz.

Prizes will be available for the overall winner (Champion), highest victory point tally (Executioner), fastest caster kill (Mage Hunter) and best painted army (Master Craftsman).
