Pro Tourney
In a naked attempt to increase traffic, I am going to do the grunt work for a Tourney.

Weasel said keep it short and sweat so we will try.
Tourney them'e' is the Iran Iraq war between 1980 and 1988.  The war, I hope the tourney doesn't get that big.
I do not want to get stuck with scrambling for replacement players, so no team play.  That leaves Last man standing or a round robin.  I invite input on that.  I lean toward a round robin, with every player playing every scenario on both sides.  If I remember my Stats 101 class (almost 50 years ago) that is the number of players minus 0ne?  Plus one?  I want a scenario because The battles will be short (under 20 turns in most cases) and sweet ( I will adjust the scenarios for variety for each player).  That means the units deploy from a entry hex and the v-flags will change position and value.  Might even ditch the V-flags for some scenarios. 
Because this will put more of a burden on players, I would prefer experienced players.  Cut down on the time I spend if I don't need to explain the basics. 
I will use these sources for the tourney;
http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/w...n-iraq.htm
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran%E2%80%93Iraq_War

So far I have sent out in house E-mails for some players and hope to hear back from them this weekend.
I have started on a map of part of Khorramshahr.  That would be one battle.  There will be a battle of Basra and I expect most of the others to come from various attempts to break the trench warfare of the mid 80's.  I am very open to suggestions.
My thoughts on scoring was to keep a running score of 'hard' point totals, then do averages at the end.  Some of the scenarios will have point per turn V-flags, which always inflates the scores.
So I am looking for a few good men. 
I know nobody here has heard that phrase before so don't swoon.
