SCHEDULE NOTES
*If you are NOT at your table when the time starts the round, your opponent will decide who KICKS/RECEIVES - If you are 15 min late to your match, your opponent will get the auto win*

*If you feel as though your match is falling behind, it's recommended that coaches use the four-minute timer to help matches finish on time. If there are any concerns about time left in the round or using the four-minute rule, please ask for a REF or the TO to come to the table.*

*Once time is called for the round, you may finish your activation (not your turn).*

DICE & DICE ETIQUETTE

• NAF, GW and the 2026 Baron of Dice CHAOS CUP dice sets + the 2026 Tournament Dice are the ONLY dice that can be used for this event, and as NAF tournament guidelines dictate, Dice Sharing must be adhered to when requsted by your opponent. 
• It is NOT mandatory, but Dice Cups and Dice Towers are encouraged. It is also good dice etiquette that all dice should rest completely flat and that "cocked" dice should be re-rolled.

AVATAR of AKHORNE - Round 1 (Optional)

All coches during Round 1 will be able to invoke the AVATAR of AKHRONE Special Ability for one of their lineman positions (0-12 or 0-16)

• For Round 1 only, this player will replace their stats/skills with that of Akhorne the Squirrel. It is HIGHLY encouraged to utilize an AKHORNE model for this round.

CHAOS ROUND - Round 6

Before Round 6, but after you know who you are playing, you may award 2 mutations to your team

• The players gaining the mutations must be the lineman position type (0-12 or 0-16) on your team and cannot have been given an additional skill increase for the tournament already
• You must clearly mark which players have which mutation and make sure your opponent knows what you have chosen before the game begins
• If your team race is a CHAOS, CHAOS DWARF, CHAOS PACT, NURGLE, or KHORNE team, you are an exception to the above “Linemen only” rule for awarding mutations. You can still only award a mutation to a  player that has not yet received an upgrade, but it can be any player type, not just 0-12 / 0-16

TOURNAMENT POINTS & TIEBREAKERS

After 6 rounds, the Chaos Cup Champion (as well as Runner-Up and 3rd Place) will be determined by overall tournament points. In case of tie-breakers, the below bullet points will be used to determine the outcome.

• Touchdowns + Touchdown Differential
• Casualties + Casualty Differential
