While some hang limp perennial flowering parasitic plants from the lintels of their grubby doorways hoping to rub their feeding orifices against another feeding orifice;
while others nail old socks to the mantels above their fireplaces hoping that an obese spirit visits and fills the crucified hosiery with pancreatic poison in the form of nutrient-poor but sugar-dense consumables;
while some light oily smoking candles in a vain attempt to ward off the darkness that will never cease its encroachment;
while some sing banal and beleaguered ditties in reedy off key voices made even more unsteady through the ingesting of organ-rotting ethanol;
while some fritter the limited course of their days in pursuit of their nostalgia-crippled culture’s unrecognizably diluted yearly winter festival, we of lost Carcosa submit not to tradition, submit not to worship of a sun deity, submit not to mindless gluttony and orgiastic consumerism.
Nay, we of the club, we of the cult celebrate our own festival. If these nights around us are considered holy, we must then celebrate the unholy. We lucky few have read the signs and know the destination of the path our world stumbles upon: a time of war unending, of the thirsting laughter of gods amongst the stars.
So join us, join arms with your fellows. Laugh at the future we have seen together as comrades. Defang the awful future by making of it but a game.
Throw thy mammon not into the maelstrom of imbecilic expenditure, but instead pile it towards the burning heavens, creating a stack to astound the magisters and deans of our local halls of ivy. Howl loud in joy and celebrate death, rebirth, life in all its awful glory… with a team doubles 40K event.
What?
The UNHOLY DAYS 40k Doubles Event is part of the Carcosa 2023 Charity Weekend benefitting the scholarship program at Borough of Manhattan Community College. This is a casual, fun event where camaraderie and team spirit will count for more than annihilating your opponents off the table.
The Rules
Participants will form 2 person teams that will play against other teams on a single table/mission. Each player will assemble an UNHOLY roster of 666 Points in accordance with a single detachment. The team will field a combined 1332 Points across two detachments in a single game.
Team Play Rules
Players will EACH pick a Warlord from their respective armies
Any unique units or enhancements can only be included once in a team
The same datasheet can only appear 3 times across BOTH players’ lists.
Command points are pooled across both players. Players generate CP as a single army.
The team is considered “friendly” for rules purposes. Any ability, stratagem, psychic power, etc. that has the appropriate keywords can affect both players’ units
Based on your chosen armies, teams will be considered to be one of the following classifications for the duration of the tournament. These will interact in fun and tactical ways during the course of the event.
Teams will be using fixed secondaries for all missions - with a fun and festive flair.
Same Faction: (Ex: Adeptus Mechanicus + Adeptus Mechanicus)
Your team is considered to be a Black Metal team
Same “Allegiance” (Imperium, Space Marines, Chaos, Xenos)
Your team is considered to be a Thrash Metal team
Neither Allegiance or Faction matching
Your team is considered to be a Doom Metal team
Missions, Special Strategems, and other surprises will be revealed at the event! Each player MUST purchase their own individual ticket.
