More details:

50 min. Swiss rounds; 4-people final (with partial point totals for unfinished matches (i.e. at 50 min. the games will be called, units will be tabulated using the "Fractional Scoring" Rules in GrungeBob's Tourney Rules.)

Question: How would you all feel about a Reverse the Whip! format (like GenCon)?

Here's the blurb for how we'd do it:

Reverse the Whip!!

Final Four players bring the same army they played during the Swiss rounds. Players will then switch armies with their opponent for every match of the Final Four.

Can you beat the army that got you to the Final Four? two times in a row? Others will be using your figures and cards; if you don’t want people touching your stuff, do not play in this event.
