September/October CMx2 Tournament

[Pewpewchewchew]

Hi folks,

Intro
I'm PPCC, host of the PPCC Strategy games channel on YouTube, and I'm here today to announce a CMFI & CMBN casted Tournament. The main goal here is to get the war gaming community involved playing a game that is exciting to watch and fun to play for both new players and veterans of the series. We'll be hosting a two tiered Tournament, with one veteran bracket and one community bracket.

This thread will be an early sign up announcement, really meant to gauge the amount of people interested and to size up the brackets. At to moment, I'm still working out the exact details, house rules ,prizes, casting, accessibility. If you'd like to help organize or sponsor a prize, send me a PM.

If you're interested in signing up, please check out the info below, sign up for a Bracket that you feel comfortable with.

Veterans Bracket - One for both games
• Eight Player Capacity - Is subject to change depending on demand
• This bracket will assume that the game of your choosing with all expansions EG. CMFI + GL / CMBN + CW + 2.0
• Sign up here if you would like challenging battles with other experienced players
• Battle sizes are up to the players though rarity is on strict.
• Two weeks per match


Community Bracket One for CMFI and Another for CMBN
• Sixteen Player Capacity - Again subject to demand
• You must have the basegame and the 2.0 patch if you're playing CMBN
• If you do have the basegame but not the 2.0 patch in the case of CMBN contact me I'll see what we can do.
• This bracket is for everyone who is interested in playing CMx2 multiplayer.
• If you would like to send me a PM regarding how well experienced you feel playing the wargames on a scale of 0-10. We'll try to set up games accordingly.
• Small sized battles / Rarity on normal
• One week per match

Both Brackets
• These are the conditions that apply to both Brackets for both games. Do note that you may only sign up for one game & bracket.
• We'll be using PBEM play

• Meeting engagement or Attack - talk this over with your opponent.
• Matches do not need to be Allies vs Axis. Play with what you're comfortable with.

Battle casts
I will be casting a few matches, these are optional excluding the final matches. If both players are fine with their matches being casted, send me a PM when the time comes.

Important Dates
• These are subject to change
• September 6th - Registration closed

Listen interesting, but two weeks per match (Veterans Bracket) listen not very long for 30/45 minute battles. I remember the "In the shadow of the hill tournament” This is no critic, but it’s difficult to have a kind of discipline with so many players.

Interesting. I am ready to take part.
Community Bracket, CMBN

I bet that with this time limit only a couple of games will be finished.
Even 30 minutes are too much for a two week game.
Real life commitments,different time zones,frustration due to armour loses, etc will take their toll.....

Community bracket please CMBN
Can you extend the timeframes if possible to complete.
Perhaps have two games going at once with different maps and different people.
4 week turnaround?
Get results quicker?
Cheers
