Hi Fennrisman,

You sign up here.

Where do you live ?

Before you sign up you should notice those subjects:

• All participating players must be familiar with the entire Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion rulebook and the Optional Rules & Units that are described as part of the Tournament rules (see above).
• We have decided that the 6th Northern European A&A Wiking-Con 2025 is scheduled for 1 game. So we have more than enough time to finish this game.
• At this point there are 8 players signed up - all are Veteran Players (minimum 10 games G40 HRE)
• Each game is 1 vs. 1 (1 player controls all 3 Axis Powers and 1 player controls all Allied Powers).
• To participate you must have completed at least 3 games of G40 HRE - either on TripleA against at least 1 other player or on game board against at least 1 other player.

The Timetable for the Tournament rules has been updated.

We have attached the revised pdf file at the first post in this thread.

Hi Feenris,

I have sent you a pm on the chat.

Captain

The Game Plan is now settled:

Game Table 1: The bid was for the Axis. Berserker accepts 4 IPC and plays the Allies.
Axis: The Captain
Allies: Berserker

Game Table 2: The bid was for the Axis. Dark Knight accepts 5 IPC and plays the Allies.
Axis: Cornelis Post
Allies: Dark Knight

Game Table 3: Players: Traesko vs. Palin53 (bids are ongoing)
Axis:
Allies:

Each Game Table is scheduled for 1 game only during this Wiking-Con. This means that the time limit for each round does not follow the Tournament rules.
A new time limit for each round is agreed by the players just before the game begins.
At least 12 rounds of play must be completed (Late 1945) unless Victory is achieved earlier.

Note:
All games are registered during any Wiking-Con event.
Scoring points are registered like this:

• Winning player: 3 points
• Draw (a): 1 point to each player if both players have played same number of G40 HRE games (+/- 2 G40 HRE games)
