First Round: Modified King of the Hill. You had to either take the hill, take the most distance on a bridge, or hold the most building of a village. James defeated Rich, Andrew defeated Jordan, and Peter defeated Jarrod.

Second Round: Hold the Hill. The winner of the previous round had to defend the territory he just captured from a new attacker.
Jarrod defeated Andrew, Peter defeated Rich, and Jordan defeated James.

Third and Final Round: Modified Treasure Hunt. Each force knows where the treasure is, they just need to carry it back off the side of the table through their deployment zone. Carrying it means you can't run or fight. Peter defeated James by taking the treasure. Rich defeated Andrew by killing more units. Neither one moved the treasure. Jarrod defeated Jordan by killing more units.

Peter was tournament champion and Khador faction champ. Jarrod was Cryx faction champ.

Jordan won Best painted army.

Pete chose a Legions of Everblight starter for his prize. Jordan chose the Circle of Orboros.
