| Hey guys its James and I am starting a new league that will begin March 2nd and go until May 25th (Need to fully map out dates but this should be correct)
Here is all the rules and info that you need! If you have any questions let me know!
The Journeyman league for WARMACHINE and HORDES is Privateer Press’ official slow-grow league. This league is designed to encourage new players to begin learning the game with their chosen faction’s battle box and then expand their collection over the course of six weeks. The Journeyman league rewards both the player’s in-game victories and their skill with a brush. In fact, eager hobbyists can enter the league and score points just for assembling and painting their models! Over the course of six weeks, players compete for prizes by earning league points. There are three types of league points: game points, hobby points, and journeyman points. Game points are earned for playing against other players in the league using that week’s rules, hobby points are earned for painting models, journeyman points are the sum of game points and hobby points. Each week, rules are set to restrict the size and general composition of players’ armies. This will help encourage an environment that is enjoyable for players who may take longer to become accustomed to the rules of the game.
Prizes Patch prizes are awarded for initial participation, continued participation, and championship awards. There are four rank award patches that all players may earn by participating in the league. There are three championship award patches a player may earn if he qualifies.
Championship awards (One of each Per league) (A single player cannot win more than one award from this category) • Destroyer Award (Skull): Most Game Points • Creator Award (Flag): Most Hobby Points • Journeyman Award (Crown): Most Journeyman Points • Best Painted (Awarded at End of League) • Wooden Spoon (Worst in league but we still love ya!)
Rank awards (Obtainable by all Players) • Rank 1: League Entry • Rank 2: 10 Journeyman Points • Rank 3: 20 Journeyman Points • Rank 4: 30 Journeyman Points Rank layout The awarded rank patches are modular. All players begin with the Rank 1 centerpiece patch and may earn additional chevrons up to Rank 4. Each rank patch is placed below the previous patch in order. Any Championship patches a player wins are placed at the top of their earned ranks, as follows. • Championship Award(s) • Centerpiece (Rank 1) • Chevron (Rank 2) • Chevron (Rank 3) • Chevron (Rank 4)
Scoring Players earn game points by playing league format games. • 3 Points for a win • 2 Points for a draw • 1 point for a loss Players earn hobby points for painting models in the faction they are playing within the league. These models do not have to be used at any time during a league game. For a painted model to score hobby points, it must meet the requirements listed in the Painting Requirements section. Hobby points are awarded only for models painted during the course of this league. Models painted prior to the start of the league do not count. Use the list below to determine how many hobby points a given model/unit is worth. • Warcasters, warlocks, warbeasts, warjacks, and solos: 3 points for large-based models, 2 points for mediumbased models, and 1 point for small-based models • Battle engines: 5 points • Colossals and gargantuans: 7 points • Units of two models: 2 points • Units of three to six models: 3 points • Units of seven or more models: 4 points • Units of only medium-based models: 1 additional point • Units of only large-based models: 2 additional points A unit can earn hobby points once it is completed at minimum size. If the player later adds to that unit and paints the remaining models, he earns hobby points equal to the difference between the hobby points for the total unit size and the minimum unit size. Example: Billy paints six Exemplar Errants and earns 3 hobby points for his minimum unit. During the league Billy adds four more Exemplar Errants and the UA, which he also paints. He then receives an additional 1 hobby point. Solos, warcasters, and warlocks that comprise multiple figures are worth hobby points corresponding to the base size of each individual model: 3 points for a large-based model, 2 points for a medium-based model, and 1 point for a small–based model. Example: The Witch Coven is worth 5 hobby points when fully painted: 1 point each for the three small-based Witches and 2 points for the medium-based Egregore. The dragoon Fenris is worth 4 hobby points when fully painted: 3 for the large-based model and 1 for the small-based model.
Tiebreakers If two players are tied for most hobby points, the player with the most game points wins the Creator Award. If two players are tied for most game points, the player with the most hobby points wins the Destroyer Award.If two players are tied for most journeyman points, the player with the smallest difference between his total hobby points and his total game points wins the Journeyman Award. If these tiebreaker conditions still result in a tie, the winner of the last game played between the tied players wins the contended award. If these players did not play each other during the course of the league, they do so at this point to determine the winner of the award using the week 6 rules.
League schedule A player may paint as many models during a league as he likes. Only models painted in the faction a player originally signed up for in the league will count towards scoring. A player may play as many games during a league as he likes, but only two games per two weeks can be scored (So pick your best!) Games played during the league will follow this schedule: • Weeks 1-3 15 points • Week 4: 15 Point Steamroller Tournament • Week 5-7 25 points • Week 8: 25 Point Steamroller Tournament • Week 9-11 35 points • Week 12: 35 Point Steamroller Tournament
At the EO’s discretion, the schedule and/or the scenarios used each week may be altered to best fit the needs of the community
Painting requirements Painting For a model to count for hobby points it must be primed, basecoated, and painted with a reasonable diversity of color. Individual elements of the miniature must be distinguishable by color or shading. For instance, flesh must be a different color than hair or clothing; metal should be a different color than leather. Basing Miniatures must be on their appropriately sized WARMACHINE or HORDES bases, but players may add scenic details. The base’s edge must always be considered when doing this, as the base itself is used for all measurements. Although scenic elements may overhang the base’s edge, enough of the edge must remain visible that accurate measuring does not become difficult or impossible.

| Entry Fee will be $10 and one last thing I wanted to add was Proxys are allowed during normal play (So for testing lists and whatnot) but Models are required during the tournaments. Play Like You've Got a Pair! | |

| Recorded! I will also have a sign in sheet up on the corkboard at Hobbytown for people to record games!
By the By You can record week 1 and 2 games all month (To help those who have a harder time getting games in) So for those of you that have games with less points you can always still play other games and try to get more points! | |
