The tournament is A Taste of Gencon .
Each round will have a different 2017 Gencon Format. The formats are pre-set so you can take that into account which formats come first when designing armies. (The playoffs will be reverse format order from the regular season, with Uniques not being played again unless 4 playoff rounds are required. So the Round 1 format, will also be the Championship format)

The formats are:
Round 1: Alliance War

No more than 300 points from 1 general.
Round 2: Coalition War

Round 4: Uniques Only
Figures: Classic Figures ONLY, no Marvel
600 points, 16 figures
Only unique figures (heroes or squads) may be in your army. Uncommons may NOT be used in your army.
Tournament Setup
-There will be 4 rounds (swiss style) lasting 2 weeks each.
-Each player with at least 3 wins will make a single elimination tournament with tiebreakers for seeding based on Strength of Schedule (Win (non forfeit) total of opponents. secondary tiebreaker will be combined win % of opponents (game actually played only)).
-Rematch Avoidance within the playoffs given priority over seeding to avoid rematches where possible
-A diceoff before each match will determine who chooses to place armies first, except in the Cluster Draft format. The diceoff winner will choose who makes first army choice. The diceoff loser of the Cluster Draft will decide who places first
Maps
Spoiler Alert!
Glyph Pool will be the same as last year’s Gencon unless I get an updated list: (d20, Unique Attack, Wound, Move, Initiative, Healer)
Re: Classic League IX: A Taste of Gen Con (Signups until 6/4
This looks really cool, definitely gonna take a little while to put together armies. One fairly insubstantial question: what is the rationale behind Valkrill being in that alliance?

Why is valkrill aligned with Jandar and Ullar? Did those two wake up and take stupid pills this morning? LOL

I'm leaning towards the stupid pills. They will change the entire war for Valhalla.
I think the alliance breakdown was done for competitive balance and not storyline, but since
@Clarissimus
posted the event details, maybe he can shed some light

Re: Classic League IX: A Taste of Gen Con (Signups until 6/4
Hmm... Perhaps Valkrill thinks that once Utgar takes over Valhalla it will be too orderly, so he's temporarily going to "join" the good guys for the sake of chaos? Besides, now he might be able to :jotun:

I plan on entering.
If maps get announced before the start date will you update them?
Clarissimus doesn't have have any special insight as to why the generals were aligned as such. He just posted on Heroscapers what was already public knowledge.

Yes, I will update the maps with the actual Gen Con maps if they are announced in time.
In fact, even if we've started the tournament I will change the map pool on the fly to match the GC pool.
And never underestimate the things Clarissimus may or may not know!

Re: Classic League IX: A Taste of Gen Con (Signups until 6/4
Clarification question: Can two army cards with the same figure (i.e. Drake [RotV] and Drake [SotM]) be used in 2 different army submissions?

May 24th, 2017 09:50 PM
Re: Classic League IX: A Taste of Gen Con (Signups until 6/4
Yes, you can use both Drakes and/or both Raelins in separate army submissions.

Good question. No, only cards that actually say "unique". Sorry, hydra lovers. :)
I actually was tinkering around with a multiple Feral Troll build.....alas
