Montuhotep Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Simple one; What are the rules for Armies on Parade in the UK? Only I asked my local GW manager (because of the poster that says "Check with Staff") and he doesn't have damned clue. He's saying the 2' by 2' board piece has to be a Realm of Battle board tile, but I've seen plenty of entries elsewhere that don't even remotely look like one. Help!

Psy-Crow Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I'm fairly certain that in the old rules it could be any board 2x2, but I think (not 100% on this) they've changed it so you don't even have to have a board. Maybe phone GW HQ for confirmation of the rules? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montuhotep Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 I did! They had absolutely no bloody idea, pointed me in the direction of the Facebook page which has bollocks all information on it and is about as generally useful as a life jacket made of loo roll!

Kierdale Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 For what it's worth the Japanese AoP used to be the same as the UK one (2'x2', not necessarily Realm of Battle, had to follow FoC) but this year I'm told it doesn't need to be 2'x2'. That's the maximum size. Don't know about any rules on army composition. I was told this directly by the boss of GW Asia, for what it's worth.

Chaeron Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 They're not not selling individual tiles now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHelion Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 My local GW Manager tells me that AoP entries are allocated a 2'x2' area which they can use as little or as much as they want. No army composition requirements, although there needs to be at least one model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kr80gZ Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 We've been given a height restriction, too, here in Oz. No part of the display can be more than 2' high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to give the guy some credit (although obviously of the warped variety) How to turn a relatively simple question into a possible £175 sale I wonder what he would say if you asked him what would be a reasonable size starting army.... "8000pts and you will need a copy of this book entitled apocalypse" If it helps you can get a piece of 2' x 2' MDF board from B&Q for a fiver.
