3. Warmachine/Hordes Trifecta Team (Fri 8/30: 5pm-12 Midnight)
3-person teams pit themselves against one another in sets of 1 on 1 battles to see which team comes away with the better record. 2 out of 3 is all it takes to advance to the next round.

4. Warmachine/Hordes Death Race (Fri 8/30: 12 Midnight – ?)
Offered on Friday and Saturday at Midnight, these lightning fast 25-point games are open to 32 players (maximum) per tournament. Can you win a game with only 18 minutes on the chess clock? Come find out! $10.
5. Warmachine/Hordes Who’s the Boss (Sat 8/31: 8am-11am; 12 Noon-4pm)
41-Point SR2013 Tournament with caster-less lists. Spin the wheel and get a random warcaster or warlock to use each round. It’s hilarious, broken, full of shenanigans and loads of fun. 32 Players (maximum). $10.
6. Warmachine/Hordes Hardcore (Sat 8/31: 5pm-2am)
Hardcore tournaments are designed for the most competitive of WM/H players. It requires a single, fully-painted army, and absolute mastery of that list since you only get 7 minutes a turn. 50 Points, 32Players, and whole lot of bloodshed! $10.
7. Warmachine/Hordes NOVA Old-Style Masters (Sun 9/1: 9am-1pm; 2pm-6pm)
Must qualify to participate.
In the Old-Style Masters tournament, players face off to prove that they are a master of their WARMACHINE or HORDES faction. In this format players bring multiple lists of their chosen faction and battle over carefully selected scenarios in a series of matches. These scenarios provide the arena with which to test a player’s knowledge, skill, and ability to adapt. It’s all come down to this. Are you ready?
Multiple Players from tournaments held prior in the weekend will qualify for this event. Prove mastery of your faction by going against the best of the best. 50 Points – 3 Lists – Divide and Conquer. $10.
8. Warmachine/Hordes Flanks (Sun 9/1: 9:30-11:30am; 12:30-4:30pm)
This event is like no other during the weekend. By using the Reinforcements variant, each scenario used is modified to use the Flank Deployment adding a new twist to old favorites and each player’s army comes to the table with reserves, waiting to jump in when they’re most needed. This tournament finishes just in time to catch the final round of Masters, so be sure to cheer for your favorite player!
Let the cavalry save the day in this tournament where the Reinforcements artifice means additional models enter the battle on Round 2. 25 Points – 32 Players (maximum). $10.
