New winWW2 tourney (dedicated to memory of SKOTTY702)

[retired from gaming]

Hi All
Good questions by everyone.

Czerpak...deep breath and have yourself a nice cold beer...it's only going to get more intense as you well know.

Respect for your effort buddy.
Cheers

I think we are almost done with questions.

BTW right now I have 14 players registered for tourney, so definetely we will be on schedule with first battles.

And here are some general notes :

Weasel is a very experienced player, so I would recommend to read his posts on this thread carefully. Chris read and undestood tourney rules well.
I have an impression some of you consider core as something you gonna have for whole tourney, which is basicaly not true. I understand many players like to buy larger formations (thats something I do as well in regular games), which is good for historical reasons at least.

But here is the quote from tourney page :

Before each battle you will be informed how many units from core force you can use and what extra units you can buy.

I guess many of you just missed that part. I would say flexibility is the key for the core force.

There is a lot of work to be done on your side (as opposite to other tourneys, where you have everything given on the plate), but rest assured you wont be bored. I have all the four battles planned already, with special rules/targets for each and every battle. For first three battles you will have to find the balance between achieving targets and keeping your core alive.

And the last thing : some of you might think I am very picky about the way you do (and send me) your core force list. Please understand you do it just for yourselve and I have to deal with 14 (maybe more) different lists. So I want to have it the way it is showed on tourney page or in the example attached to this thread (first post). This will also make it easier for you to plan the battles. If I ask for a unit and its cost that literaly means it. It doesnt mean I expect a list of 150 units and a statement they all cost 7000 points together.
If you are quite new to the game and have troubles with finding out how much a single unit costs please send me an email and I will tell you how to find that out. We are learning all the time. I personally have spent hundreds of hours with this game and still missed one very important technical detail while preparing this tourney. Something which will cause additional technical troubles in last two battles, but I have to live with it. And you guys have to live with me. But once all the hard work with preparations is done you will have fun with hunting, and I will have even more work to do.

cheers
