Alamo GT ‘26
Lists are due 23:59:59 11 May 26 and no new Codexes or supplements aside from FAQs, erratas can be used after that day. All lists are to be up to 2000 points. Chess Clocks can be used at the request of just one player and can not be denied. They must be used by all undefeated players on day 2.
Highlander list must be labled as Highlander at the top of the list. Furthermore, GW's failure in nerfing Ctan, has inspired one additional limitation. Like before, Highlander list can only use one Epic Hero Monster/Vehicle in the list. This is in addition to the limitation that a Datasheet can be used only once.
For example, an Admech List could have either Cawl, or Ghuld in their list as they’re both Monsters. If that same Admech list wanted to add a Knight, any imperial knight could be added except Canis Rex.

Alamo GT Terrain Examples
Ruins Ruins Everwhere, yes they’re all ruins, Blame GW.
First Floor windows and doors are all considered to be closed as if the wall was there. Blocking both line of sight and movement as normal. For example an infantry can walk through a wall or a door left open but swarms can not because the open or closed door is treated as a solid wall. Most of these have already physically been closed.
Crates are used as an extra thick wall that reaches the first floor. Infantry and beast can move through crates as if it were a normal wall and can not stop in it.
If a wall is on top of a blue section of a terrain base or what should be a blue section as labled in the tournament companion layouts for your game, that wall may be moved through as if it were 2” of terrain.
These Small Ruins are treated as all windows closed.
Alamo GT FAQ
Secure Positions:
Q: Can I Advance a Transport and get out with the Secure Positions stratagem?
A: Mostly No, if you use the stratagem on a Sagituar in the movement phase after it advanced, you will receive the benefit of the 6” Disembark because the transport has a special rule to disembark after advancing. However, that Ability will not trigger when using the Secure Positions Stratagem in any other phase because of the Out-of-Phase Rules.
Q: Can I Disembark on to an Objective point when arriving from reserves.
A: Mostly Yes, the Transport must arrive wholly within 6” of a board edge but when using Secure Positions, the unit that Disembarks wholly within 6” of the transport must remain outside of 9” from an enemy unit possibly hopping into range of an Objective.
