Tournament Policies


  • W.Y.S.I.W.Y.G - We want to strongly encourage the players to model their miniatures in a way that is fair to their opponent and is in the spirit of the game. We also encourage conversion work, that said if you have a conversion that might be questionable please email us at flyingmonkeyswargaming@gmail.com with photo's of the model. 
  • Rules/Book Cut Off - We will have a Two week cut off policy for all rules updates, FAQ's, and Supplements. The date will specifically be August 1st, 2021
  • 3 Color Minimum - The Flying Monkey GT maintains the policy that any model that is not painted to at least a 3 color minimum can and will be pulled from every game in which the model does not have the 3 color minimum rule. We realize this might seem harsh, but we feel like it is not in the spirit of the game to be played with models that do not have some level of effort put into painting the models. That said we will NOT pull models that we believe to be aesthetically unpleasing, everyone paints at different levels, all we ask is that you respect our wishes and feelings, and the feelings of your opponents who put a lot of care into the painting aspect of our hobby. 
  • Harassment - Harassment is treated on a case by case basis. That said any one found harassing an individual for any reason based on sex, sexual orientation, race, religion, or for any other reason we deem demeaning to the individual being harassed we will ask the person harassing to leave immediately without exception. We have never had an issue before and we hope to never have to use this policy
  • Refunds - Flying Monkey Con maintains the policy of issuing refunds within 30 days of the event, any requests after that will not be processed. 


**We will not physically take your models off the board but we will ask you to remove them from the playing field unitl they reach the 3 color minimum**


  • Illegal Lists - The Flying Monkey GT maintains the policy, if your list is found to be illegal on the FIRST DAY, we will handle the illegal list in two ways. If your list is illegal because of a detachment error, the detachment that is deemed to be illegal will not be allowed to be played, and you must play without those models in the said detachment for the rest of the tournament or be disqualified. Second if your list is illegal because of points error, the units/models that are not correct because of points will not be allowed to be played with for the rest of the tournament, and if you do not do this you will be disqualified. On the SECOND DAY if your list is found to be illegal in any way, you will be disqualified from the tournament, no exceptions. Upon either instances on either day if your list is illegal you are not eligible for any prize support 
 
  • Cheating - If it is found that you are intentionally cheating in any way at the Flying Monkey GT you will be immediately disqualified and asked to leave the Con.
