The league season will run from February till the end of November.
Games will be played and scored using whatever mission pack is available to the players. Using the latest mission pack (currently Pariah Nexus) is advised. If a new mission pack is released during the season, that will be used. It is recommended that the Tabletop Battles app is used to score games. Game results are submitted via the WhatsApp group after the game is completed.
The league will use WTC's 20-0 scoring system to determine ranking.
In short, games start at 10-10; for every 5-point difference, the winner gains a point, and the loser loses a point. For example, a score of 100-89 would be an 11-point difference and convert to a 12-8 victory.
With 20-0 scoring, two new incentives are introduced. You want to achieve crushing victories where possible, racking up more points for your six-game total. Being able to force through some points even when you lose still helps your league process overall. This means you should play hard for every point you can scrape out. It also helps with tough matchups, as you can play for a small loss rather than letting yourself be blown out of the water.

Don't worry! This will all be calculated for you. All you need to do is submit your results via WhatsApp.
You can play as many league games as you want during the season. A minimum of three league games needs to be played to quailfy for placing. Your best six (or less if you don't play six) scores will be used to calculate your final score.
Players cannot play the same player more than twice for the league.
Each player picks a faction and uses this for the league. This can be changed once during the season (because I suspect there will be a Slaaneshi up-rising at some point) and cannot be swapped back.
Armies will consist of 1000 points to 2000 points, but it is advised to play 2000 points if possible.
Army construction can be done via the 40k app or the New Recuit App to ensure the latest points and rules are used.
Your list may change from game to game but do not tailor it to your opponents.
Proxies are allowed with the permission of your opponent before the game. Proxies should have the same base size and height similar to the model they are representing.
