What is Hegemon Team? We are Hobbyists 😉 We have been operating since October 2021, putting the customer's needs first, of course.

We support the local community by organizing tournaments, challenges and leagues. There is always someone in the shop who will introduce you to the secrets of painting figurines. We will teach every willing person to play battle games or we will play a friendly battle on a larger or smaller scale. But most of all, we always give you advice 🙂

In cooperation with the Polish National Team in Warhammer 40K, we have created Hegemon Battleforce, which is a response to the needs of new players of this system. We are also the sole sponsor of this particular team.

If you are looking for a battle store, you couldn't find better! You will find here both the most interesting battle games and also game sets, books to play and a number of various accessories and add-ons for both beginners and advanced players. We provide the highest quality customer service and will advise you on any issue related to your hobby. We are also waiting for you in the stationary store in Bielsko-Biała, which is also a unique place to play with friends in a great atmosphere. We invite you to Stojałowskiego 39 from Monday to Saturday from 12:00 to 20:00.

TOURNAMENT RULES

- We’re using 10th edition rules, with all codexes, FAQs, Chapter Approved, WTC FAQs released
before [31.05.]
- we’ll be playing on 60x44” tables,
- Each game uses a fixed game length: 5 turns will be played,
-. It is BOTH players’ responsibility to ensure mandatory things that happen in the game take place. It
is customary to ask your opponent at the end of his movement phase if he is sure he does not want
to bring any reserves on before moving on to the next phase.
- The terrain is placed by players, for each table there will be a set of terrains that players have to set
up following the table layout. Players are expected to set up terrains on their table for the game they
will be playing, before, or just after pairings.
- If something is not in the rules pack the referees can (and will) make relevant rulings during the
tourney.
- The players are required to have the relevant rules, faqs etc. for their army,
- The players can, for whatever reason, choose not to play the game- there are 2 options that can be
taken:
a) tactical draw- 10:10 match points (0:0 victory points)
b) walkover- 20:0 (50:0)
This has to be communicated ASAP to a referee.

PAIRING SYSTEM & TERRAIN

Pairings:
Sequence of events
STAGE 1
Captains roll off to determine which team will get to choose its table first. That team gains the “table choice” token and becomes Team A.
Team A and Team B secretly choose their first defender and reveal them simultaneously.
After that, Team A and Team B secretly choose their two attackers for the given defender and reveal them simultaneously. At this point there are two players available remaining in each team.
Team A takes the two attackers given by team B, and secretly chooses which one is refused. Team B does the same with the two attackers selected by Team A.
The refused Attackers are revealed simultaneously. The refused attackers return to the pool of players of each team. At this point two pairings are determined and there are three players remaining in each pool.
Starting with Team A, the two defenders pick their tables. After this swap table choice token.
STAGE 2 Team A and Team B secretly choose their second defender and reveal them simultaneously. Team A takes the two attackers given by team B, and secretly chooses which one is refused. Team B does the same with the two attackers selected by Team A. The refused Attackers are revealed simultaneously. They will automatically be designated to play the 5th game of the round and face each other. Starting with Team B, defenders pick their tables. This leaves one table unpicked which will be the table for the refused attackers. (Order of Table Choice Team A -> Team B -> Team B - Team A -> Remaining Table)

PENALTIES, YELLOW & RED CARDS

- Chess clocks are mandatory. Each player is allocated equally half the remaining round time once pairings have been completed.

- It is MANDATORY that ALL games conclude their full complement of 5 turns within the allotted time.

- Deathclock: Once a player hits their allotted time on the clock, the normal rules for playing the game no longer apply (rules such as that you MUST attack when it is your turn to fight) and they can take no further actions during the game except in order to:

A – Make saving throws, and taking a Battleshock Test if required to

B – Score objectives that they have achieved or already hold

- Penalties will be applied at the discretion of the referees if they feel clocks are not managed properly, if players try to abuse time management, or if a game does not complete the mandatory 5 turns.

- Players are not allowed to pause the clock at any time. Pausing the clock may only be done by a referee if they feel it is necessary during a game. If a player pauses the clock at any time this is a foul. As well as any penalty applied the referee may adjust the clock to establish what they feel is the correct game state.

- Furthermore, if a game does not complete the mandatory 5 turns and a referee hasn’t already been involved, then the captains and coaches are obliged to inform the referees immediately. Failure to do so can incur a penalty at the discretion of the referees. This is so that the referee corps is always aware of any ‘repeat offenders’ and therefore potentially deliberate slow play.

To enforce this, penalties will be imposed on any team with players unable to finish their game within their allotted time, termed a Timekeeping Foul (given for not finishing 5 rounds). These penalties will be cumulative throughout the event. Multiple fouls in a round are possible. Timekeeping fouls from running out of time do not stack with other penalties unless judged appropriate. Extreme cases will be handled differently.

1. a) 1st Timekeeping Foul - Official team warning
2. b) 2nd Timekeeping Foul – 10 Game Points per team
3. c) 3rd Timekeeping Foul – 20 Game Points per team
4. d) 4th Timekeeping Foul – 30 Game Points per team

Players Penalties:

1. a) Warning – 2nd results in yellow card
2. b) Reprimand – 10 points, 2nd results in yellow card
3. c) Yellow card – -10-25 points, 2nd leads to Red Card
4. d) Red card – -100 points, expelled, team can substitute
5. e) Referees may escalate penalties.

Teams Penalties:

1. a) 1st infraction - Official team warning
2. b) 2nd infraction – 10 Game Points per team
3. c) 3rd infraction – 20 Game Points per team
4. d) 4th infraction – 30 Game Points per team

HOBBY SCORE

Painted armies

All armies should be painted with at least basic colors. Unpainted models may be removed from game by referee. 

Battle Ready:

Your team can get 120 point if all models be battle ready ( 20 vp per person, be added after tournament)

• All models must be glued and/or magnetized and fully painted,
• By a painted model we mean one that has detailed elements such as armor, robes, and smaller parts such as weapons, emblems on armor, holsters, tracks on tanks, windows, spikes, etc. must be distinguished either by painting them with colors other than the base color of the armor or garments on the model, whether by shading or highlights other than those on the main body of the model
• Monochromatic painting schemes, ghost armies, etc. must be individually approved by the organizer
• The base must be prepared. A prepared base means:

1. a) a base with Texture paint from GW (or equivalent from another company) applied
2. b) a base with some form of sand, static grass, cork, etc. glued on and painted
3. c) a stage base, painted

• Models must be WYSIWYG of all weapon elements that have some choice (i.e. special weapons, systems, mutations, etc.),
• The same units must have distinctions such as:

1. a) different colors of the base edges
2. b) differently painted shoulder pads
3. c) colored rubber bands applied to the modele
4. d) anything else that will enable them to be distinguished at first glance

Models:

- Players using converted or alternative models are expected to contact refs with photos of such models at 40k discord or via mail (refs40k@gmail.com) in regards of being allowed to use them. While providing the photo a player is expected to show his converted/alternative model next to an assembled, unaltered original.

Failure to do so may result in the models being removed from play

- Any size difference between a model being used and currently sold, normally assembled one is also subject to the rule above.

TERRAIN FEATURES

The event will be held in line with latest designers commentary, errata and FAQ released up until
29.05.2024. If a balance dataslate or any other change would be released after that, its impact will
be evaluated and depending on the changes it might be applicable for the event.
During the event we will play with: doors, hatches, scalable terrain, scramble over.
We will use the following terrain:
- Open
- Into the Dark
- Bheta Decima*
* - Some rules will require an explanation which will be provided as soon as possible to ensure
clarity during the event.
The number of Bheta Decima tables will not be proportionate to open and Into the Dark boards (we
will not have 1/3 of each terrain types).
As Bheta Decima is still being tested as viable tournament option, it is possible it will not be used in
the tournament if it remains unbalanced and would have very negative impact on the game.

Day 2:

If you perform any movement with a unit, and before that movement you don’t mark down where that unit was, and then there is argument if the move you made was legal (for example, your opponent thinks you moved too far), this argument is resolved in favor of your opponent.
