    IronMan
    During an IronMan tournament players keep track of losses and wounds. Losses cannot be played in the next tournament rounds and wounds stay on multi-wound models. Any models created during the game are counted as causualties at the end of the game and cannot be used in subsequent rounds. An example of this is using a daemonic artifact to summon a free unit of daemons. Those daemons would be destroyed at the end of that game.

    If at any time you do not have any models surving models you will be considered out of the tournament.
    Rounds
    There will be three games in this tournament.
