Killa Kanz

This November we’re hosting the fifth annual Killa Kanz, a 40K doubles tournament and canned food drive in support of Philabundance, a trusted food bank serving the Philadelphia and Delaware Valley region. The tournament is a doubles event (meaning each player will need a teammate), using the normal Matched Play rules for Warhammer 40,000, with all applicable FAQs, beta rules, and errata. Each player must bring a Battle-forged 1000-point army for a total of 2000 points per team. Once each game begins, each team’s forces will function as a single army, combining their command points, and benefiting from each other’s stratagems, psychic powers, and auras as appropriate for any keyword-based targeting restrictions that may apply. There is no painting requirement and Forge World units using the rules from the most recent source are allowed, but players are strongly encouraged to play fully based and painted armies, as there is a hobby component to scoring.

Players must be present by 11:50 AM and a short dinner break will be held before the final round. Players must bring at least one printed copy of their army list, and have all necessary rules, dice, measuring devices, etc., at their disposal. All models must be WYSIWYG; proxies are permitted but must be very clear. Terrain house rules will be in effect: Models may only be placed where the base/hull fits. Solid terrain pieces provide cover if the entire unit is within 3″ and at least 25% obscured (this still applies if part of the unit is not visible to the shooting unit and further than 3″ away). There will be a variety of on-site give-aways held as part of the event. For every canned good a player brings (or $1 donated), their team will receive an in-game reroll or use of a special “Kanz Only” stratagem (hint: bring an extra squad, vehicle, or character, just in case) during the event. All canned goods and money donated for in-game bonuses benefits Philabundance.
