## What is Bracket Bay?

Bracket Bay is the free, all-in-one tournament manager built for Warhammer 40,000.

Whether you're running a local game-store event or a multi-round championship, Bracket Bay handles the hard parts — pairings, standings, lists, and stats — so you can focus on the games.

SMART SWISS PAIRINGS
Generate fair, balanced rounds in seconds. Bracket Bay's smart Swiss engine lets you prioritize the constraints that matter to you:
• Avoid repeat matchups
• Avoid same-faction pairings
• Avoid same-nationality pairings
Drag to reorder priorities and toggle each rule on or off — the pairings adapt to your event.

FULL TOURNAMENT CONTROL
• Create open, request-to-join, or invite-only tournaments
• In-person or online events
• Set player limits, rounds, deadlines, and scoring
• Manage rounds: generate pairings, enter results, track standings live
• Invite players by email and review army lists before play

RANKINGS & STATISTICS
• Season-based leaderboards
• Player win rates, records, and average scores
• Faction performance stats with win/loss/draw breakdowns
• Personal profile tracking your games, factions, and recent tournaments

LISTFORGE INTEGRATION
Connect your ListForge account to pull your army lists straight into a tournament — faction and detachment fill in automatically, and you can sync results back. Prefer to keep it simple? Paste any list in manually.

OPTIONAL PAID REGISTRATION
Bracket Bay is completely free to use. Organizers who want to sell event tickets can enable secure payments powered by Stripe, with optional discount coupons. Attendees pay quickly with Apple Pay or card.
