Gladiator Cup League
Gladiator Rules
Groupings and Games:
1. Players will be divided in to three Groups: Galleria-North, Bunker-North and ATC-South
2. Players will be required to play seven (7) games against players within their respective Groups. Out of these games they accumulate corresponding points based on VP difference, casualties, and bonus points made available during the weeks that follow.
3. Of the 7 games, a player may be allowed only one (1) rematch, but scores from both matches will be recorded. Note: Considering the number of players per Group, this should not be a problem.
4. Games can be arranged by agreement between players and played at their convenience, with at least a third player acting as witness. With Galleria, ATC and the Bunker as very visible venues for the games, any games arranged outside these three mentioned will require validation by the third player acting as witness.
5. In true Gladiator tradition, the Primary Objective of each game is to wipe out your opponent from the face of the battlefield. Other minor objectives will be announced at the start of each gaming week.
6. A gaming week starts every Friday and ends the next Thursday where a new Weekly Bonus Objective will be announced for the next gaming week.
7. Each player will use the 1500pt list submitted.
Points to be awarded:
1. Win-Loss:
To be determined by differences in Victory Points (VP) scored for destroying enemy units. Kindly refer to page 300 of the 40k Rulebook for computing of VPs. For 1500pt games, a difference above 150VP determines the winner, while a 0-150VP difference will determine the draw.
a. Win (greater than 150VP difference): 5pts
b. Draw (0-150VP difference): 3pts each
c. Loss: 1pt
2. Casualties:
Award the following points (cumulative) to the Win-Loss score received:
a. Wiped out enemy HQ slot: +1pt
b. Wiped out enemy Elites slot: +1pt
c. Wiped out enemy Troops slot: +2pts
d. Wiped out enemy Fast Attack slot: +1pt
e. Wiped out enemy Heavy Support slot: +1pt
Kindly note that dedicated transports (Rhinos, some Landraiders, Raiders, etc.) do not count in resolving casualties nor units that do not count in the standard force organization (ex. Chaos Spawn, Lesser Daemons, etc.)
3. Bonus Points:
a. Wipeout (Remember those dedicated transports and non-counting standard force org elements? They count here.): +2pts
b. Bonus Points awarded in the Weekly Bonus Objective Scenarios (To be announced at the start of the gaming week): +2pts maximum +1pts each for a draw*
* An important note on Weekly Bonus Objective Scenarios: Points from Weekly Bonus Objective Scenarios may only be won ONCE, and may be attempted only TWICE by any one player for the given gaming week.

Siege of the Emperor's Palace
From Jay Estaris' 50mms Worth of Life
This probably shouldn't be in my photoblog but what the heck.
Joel "Ebon" Tiongson organized a small Apocalypse level battle (Oxymoron?) last Saturday over at Lito "Oberon" Tan's excellent Battle Bunker facilities. While attendance was uncommonly small (8 players in Total methinks), the battle was fast and very enjoyable. I had the honor of piloting Ryan Chung's Bore-a-manders from half of turn 2 til game end due to him failing his Leadership check and succumbing to his hang-over.
I actually hate megabattles but this game has managed to convince me that with the right venue and, most importantly, the right friends, it could be a very enjoyable experience.
