About a month away and people are constantly asking me about rules for the different events, and i have no idea where to send them to answer these questions.

Its about time a thread was stickied with the rules or links to the rules for each event.

If you post links or information here that might be a start, i've started with what i know and it doesn't cover things like jedi challenge build rules and maps. no idea what to tell people about the assassin format. Where are the BHC rules? Will the floor rules get changed last minute?

Assassin Rules

A moderator will be necessary to run this event. The moderator needs to assign targets, choose initial map spawn points, and draw initiative each round.
Each player controls a preset squad of two characters totally 100pts. One character must be melee, and one ranged. All players are given two targets; one melee, one ranged and chosen at random from the characters controlled by the other players. Each player will be given a token with the name of each of his targets. Depending on the number of players and the layout of the maps played on, the game can be played on one, two or three maps.
Each player is assigned an initiative number. At the beginning of each round, the moderator will draw numbers and lay them out in the order he draws them. If any player controls a character with Master Tactician, he may take his number and place it anywhere in the initiative order he wishes. Play proceeds with each player activating one character until everyone has activated one. Then, in reverse initiative order, the remaining characters are activated.
Players start in random spawn points on the map chosen by the moderator prior to the event. Each player seeks to eliminate the targets he has been given. When a target is successfully eliminated, the player controlling the eliminated target must relinquish a target of his choice to his opponent. Regardless, one target must be relinquished for each success.
Players may only target and attack a character they have as a target. If an area effect is used, the target must be a legal target. (Legal target is defined as a character the attacking player has a target for.) Non-targeting effects are permitted. The only exception to this targeting rule is if the controlling player’s character has taken damage in ANY way. Once this occurs, ALL of the characters controlled by the player doing the damage are now considered legal targets. If a character is eliminated as a result of this type of retaliation, the player controlling the eliminated character must still relinquish a target, but the elimination does not count towards the total targets eliminated.
Play continues until there are no more legal targets. The player who has eliminated the most targets is the winner, even if he does not control any characters at the conclusion of the game.

Royal Rumble -team event Rules
teams of 3 players will play in separate games of the royal rumble format listed here
http://www.swmgamers.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=9281

I've been wondering the same thing. In the Jedi Challenge, I know the first leg is 100 pnt rebel storm - the force Unleashed.
And 150 pnt legacy - masters and 200 pnt v-set only, but what about the sub sets and map packs? Where do they fall into line? Lancer, GOWK, etc... were sub sets/special sets.

And with the 100 pnt light side/dark side, how does affinity work? Are characters like Atton "Jaq" Rand considered fringe? Cause he can be both light side and dark side.

On a completly different note, I am assuming that I am running Royal Rumble again but have not heard any official call on that yet. I designed the format and set forth the rules for RR and did my best at making everything known so that is why I assume that I am running RR again this year.

Any information would be extremely helpful as I am trying to build squads and such for these events.

are any figures outside of the sets allowed? (uggies etc)

Affinity for Dark and Light side factions (MAs Amedda, Atton Jaq Rand, etc) - can they be used in either Dark or Light side teams for Dark Side vs Light Side?

the 100 points JC is lightside/darkside?

are there events I'm missing in the first post?

the 100 pt Jedi Challenge leg is normal faction rules but just limited to sets RS-TFU.

hopefully Deri can copy this up to the first post.

This list is wrong. The Royal Rumble is not part of the Sith Trials.

should be in the event description, but I think everything except the champs is the standard list.
