40k Rankings/Campaign

All,

As this has been discussed on the fantasy forum and i certainly think it would be a good thing to start a ranking/campaign for 40k as well. And as such before i make a "stickied" topic which will have current standing and battle results, id like to kick about a few ideas first.

So for games the recording of victory points would be essential. Like most league standings there will be a VP for and VP against column, not that the league will come down to "goal difference"!

Each time a game is played, the scenario can be rolled out, or you can simply elect to play "purge the alien"

Victory Conditions could be as follows;

Draw - Both players scored the same number of VP's and the game is a draw
Win - You have beaten the enemy by 1 Victory Point
Clear Win - You have beaten the enemy by 3 Victory Points
Massacre Win - You have beaten the enemy by 5 Victory Points


When awarding points on the ranking table, due to the different victory conditions, the following points can be awarded.

Loss (by any margin) = 0 Points
Draw = 1 point
Win = 3 Points
Clear Win = 4 Points
Massacre Win = 5 Points



So thats what i got so far, lets kick it about.

No reason to not get a standing table up as soon as all are agreed. We can run the table for a year or 6 months and see how it all looks?

Not sure how we will work people that play alot more of this game system than any other as they will clearly get alot more exposure for points.

Also i can create a standard form for recording of game results, which can be handed to me at the end of the session for updating onto the standings/forum.

im in also to alleviate the prospect of people playing more games than others we can have league games and non league games therefore you only record the ones that count so everyone can play everyone and have the same number of played games

yeah I was thinking everyone just plays each other once or twice and then otherwise it's a non ranked game

I think we should set a points value but then don't wanna exclude people who can't make the value. tournaments seem to be about 1850 but I think although guys do it at tourneys we wouldn't have it done in time, so maybe 1500 is a good place to do the first campaign
