DEFCON 2 – WW3 50pts Beginners Tournament

If you don’t play regularly but are maybe tempted to join the rapidly growing WW3 Team Yankee community, want to try out a new army, or are even an experienced player who’s prepared to play a friendly army and help newer players, this is the perfect one-day event.

The previous DEFCON2 events have proved to be extremely popular due to the event format being designed to keep it as beginner-friendly as possible – full details are available in the downloadable rule pack at the bottom of the page but, as a general outline, it will involve:

1. Players using small armies of 50pts

2. No painting requirements – just build and play (although painted miniatures are very welcome)

3. Friendly opponents who are either newer players themselves or players with more experience but who want to help tutor others

4. Extended rounds that give time to play at a friendly pace without the pressure of watching the clock

5. Restricted participant numbers to help prevent newer players feeling overwhelmed.    

6. WE ARE USING DYNAMIC POINTS AT THIS EVENT – full details can be found here: https://www.team-yankee.com/Default.aspx?tabid=867&art_id=7957  (If you’re not sure what they are, its simply the revised points needed to balance a number of units and they make it a lot easier to include tanks in your army, which is always a good thing!)
 
If you’ve any questions about DEFCON 2 or Dynamic Points please feel free to ask them in the Battlefront Games at Firestorm and The Armageddon Club Facebook groups, or email them to the Event Organiser (email address is in the rule pack available to download from this page).


The South Wales Gaming Centre will be open at 10am.

Refunds will be subject to a £2.50 administration fee. Any request for a refund one week or less before the event will only be possible if there is a reserve list of players who can take up any refunded ticket.

Vouchers for lunch will be issued during registration.

For larger events our on site Cafe facility will be selling sausage and bacon rolls until 10.30 am.

We ask that you don’t bring your own food or drink into The South Wales Gaming Centre.
