As I was getting ready for the tournaments I want to play next week, I was reading through my gencon emails, and noticed this:

"You must bring an army of 3 regiments to participate and and have two copies of your army sheet ready to be inspected"

That's very surprising to me, as it contradicts the tournament rules (that states 2 regiments), and our basic assumption that 2 regiments shoudl be the regular format.

Do you know who I could contact (and how) to get a confirmation ?

Also, it sounds to me that 3 regiment-games will be very challenging to fit in their 65 minute time slot.

Tournament rules state that players must bring three regiments to tournaments that have a top cut.

During Swiss rounds, players will use their main two regiments only.

The third regiment will be included in the 90 minute elimination rounds.

Thank you for telling me !

I have just re-read the tournament's rules that detail what you say.'

I did not really like the idea of playing all rounds with such a big army, but I think it is a plus for the final rounds !

For example if you have a rematch with someone, the reserve is likely to change the picture and strategy you have to go with.

I turned from disapointed to even more enthusiastic !
