An Anniversary Year: This year we will be celebrating the 250th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. To mark the occasion, WBC has given us a dedicated space for our event; Foggy Brews in the Ski Lodge where we will share space with Battles of the American Revolution games.

Play in as many Heats as your schedule will allow; win or lose. The top four players advance to the Semifinal based on the Heats Most Wins – Points standard tie-breakers with GM specific tie-breakers listed below.

Seeding for Heat 1 will be random pairing of those without a game with those that have a game.

Seeding for Heats 2-4 will be based first on wins from among those players having played in previous Heats, then by morale points; then rating from among those players entering the tournament for the first time during the current Heat, and finally randomly among the non-rated players entering the tournament for the first time during the current Heat.

Seeding for Semifinal will be based on wins then morale points from the combined Heats.

Byes: There will be no byes offered. The GM will act as an eliminator if necessary, so as to have an even number in each Heat.

Sides will be determined by gentleman's agreement or by a secret bid of at-start formation morale points, There will be an auto reduction of 1 AM from the British in all games. Bidding for the British will begin with a bid of at least 2 with the winner being able to reduce a British formation a maximum of 1 point per formation as determined by the American player.
