CS: Middle East Tournament - TOURNAMENT ENDED

[RADO]

If you start up an ME tournament, count me in. Can't wait!

Indeed, time to get the first CS Middle East tournament rolling! And why not, as the game comes loaded with six Tournament scenarios to play:

Israel vs Libya:
- LINK: Set A01 - High Noon
- LINK: Set A02 - King of the Hill
- LINK: Set A03 - Cat and Mouse
- LINK: Set A04 - Motoring to Karam

Israel vs Syria:
- Set B01 - Into the Breach
- Set B02 - A Furious Charge

And if we so choose, we can always continue with the LINK:  Duel for the Golan'85  NATO vs Warsaw Pact What-Ifs by Al Sandrik.

Tournament Set A and Set B sceanrios are all set in 1982, so a modern battle field it is, with guided missiles, helo gunships, thermal sighting, the lot. So if any of you have not had a chance to play with them yet, why not give few of the Teaching Set scenarios a quick spin. Especially the 1967, 1973 and 1982 versions give a good idea of how the firepower of various weapon systems increase. 

Al Sandrik scenarios, as you may have figured out, are set in 1985, as modern as the game allows for. 

As for Tournament Rules, why not figure out that as we go, but something like two teams, rotating the sides per round, so everyone gets to play both the IDF and the Libyan / Syrian side of things. As for points and tournament ranking, how about something simple such as an overall score for the the duration of the tournament, with players adding to their tally in a manner for instance:

• Major Win: 5 x SM of the given scenario
  
• Minor Win: 4 x SM of the given scenario
  
• Draw: 3 x SM of the given scenario
  
• Minor Loss: 2 x SM of the given scenario
  
• Major Loss: 1 x SM of the given scenario
  

But, rather than getting into a competitive mode, let us rather enjoy this as a good chance to have fun games under our belts, especially with modern gear.

Participant medals for everyone completing five rounds, medals then for top dogs too. 

So who's in? In addition to RADO and myself, of course
