1 World Championship Weekend ticket
2 Regionals 2013 dice bags
8 sets of 10 acrylic focus tokens (80 tokens total)
16 Regionals 2013 patches

Pre-Registration Details:

Pre-registration for the Event will begin on Friday, March 22, 2013 at 11:00 am and will end the day before the event.

The Entry Fee will be $15.00 and will be due at the time of Pre-Registration.

 

Format:

3-5 Swiss rounds (depending on participation)
Cut to top 4 if there is not a definite winner after 5 rounds.

Squad Build:

Each player must build one squad for use in an X-Wing tournament. The squad-building rules described in this section supersede the squad-building rules described in the X-Wing rulebook.

The maximum squad points for each player is 100 points. A squad cannot exceed 100 points, though it may contain fewer than 100 points. Each player may choose to field either a Rebel or Imperial squad, as tournament seeding ignores the player’s faction.

Each player must submit his squad composition, including all associated Upgrade cards and total squad points, to the TO before the start of the tournament. Players must use the same squad for the duration of the tournament, including all Ship and Upgrade cards.

Players are welcome and encouraged to personalize their squads according to the following rules. The TO is the final authority on a ship’s eligibility in the tournament. If a ship is ruled ineligible and the
player does not have a corrected replacement for that ship model, the player is disqualified from the tournament.

Ship models may be painted as desired as long as the alterations are not offensive and do not adversely affect another player’s experience. The size and shape of a ship model cannot be modified in any way. Ship bases cannot be modified to alter their size or shape. Weight may be added to a ship base if it does not alter the size or shape of the base.

All components other than ship models must remain unaltered. Cards may be sleeved for protection. Sleeves for Damage cards must be identical and unaltered.

Proxies are not allowed during tournament play. Each player must use only the components included in official X-Wing products. Each ship must have the official ship base, official Ship and Upgrade cards,
and the correct, official ship model.

Scoring:

Players earn tournament points at the end of each match as follows:

Match Win = 5 points
Modified Match Win = 3 points
Draw = 1 point
Match Loss = 0 points

Each tournament match ends in one of the following three ways:

All of one player’s ships are destroyed (respecting the Simultaneous Attack Rule, p 16). The player with at least one ship remaining immediately earns a Match Win, and his opponent receives a
Match Loss. If neither player has any remaining ships, the game ends in a Draw.

At the end of the current round, the match time limit has been reached. Each player calculates the total squad point value of his opponent’s destroyed ships, including Upgrade cards equipped
to those ships. The player who destroyed the greatest total squad point value receives a Modified Match Win, and his opponent receives a Match Loss. If the winning player destroys at least 33
points more than his opponent, he receives a Match Win instead. If both players destroyed the same total squad point value, the game ends in a Draw.

A player voluntarily concedes defeat at any point during the match. By conceding defeat, he receives a Match Loss and his opponent receives a Match Win. It is considered good sportsmanship to
concede defeat when there is no reasonable chance for victory.
