[kronenblatt]

Please declare (through posting in the tournament thread) your respective attacks (one each) in round 3 ASAP, but no later than June 1.

Example on how to express attack declarations (assuming second round 1390-1150 BC):
kronenblatt attacks using Egyptian 1200-1150 BC with Greek 1179-681 BC allies.

Please keep the following in mind for your respective attacks:

• Players can announce attacks without having to wait for each other and without any particular order.

• Attacking players are not affected or limited by each other's choices.

• Main army
  • A player uses major factions and their army lists of his own choice as the main army, subject to however that he cannot select the same major faction:
    • in two consecutive rounds (i.e., not the same major faction as in the second round), and
    • more than twice over the course of full seven rounds.
  • The selected major faction's army list must overlap (at least partially, with 1 year at least) the time period of the round in question.

• Ally army
  • A player must use an available minor faction as allies, but may in maximum one attack elect to not use any allies at all.
  • A minor faction can be selected only once by a player (i.e., either as an ally army or as a defending army) during the course of the tournament.
  • The selected minor faction's army list must overlap (at least partially, with 1 year at least) the time period of the major faction's army list as well as the time period of the round.

kronenblatt attacks using Babylonian 1594-891 BC with Elamite 1500-816 BC allies.

[kronenblatt]

No answer from rpadilla1988 so I've "randomised" as follows:

rpadilla1988 attacks using Egyptian 1200-1150 BC with Luwian 1594-1180 BC allies.

(I took a major faction that he hadn't selected before and one that no one else had selected this round either, for variety. Luwian because it was the last chance to select them.)

[kronenblatt]

It's time for the defenders to select their minor factions, posting their selections in the tournament thread ASAP but June 5 at the latest.

• rockmanbob123 attacks using Hittite 1270-1180 with Sea People 1208-1176 allies. indibil defends.

• jaerho attacks using Hittite 1275 -1180 BC with Zagros Highlander 2500-1001 BC allies. rpadilla1988 defends.

• kronenblatt attacks using Babylonian 1594-891 BC with Elamite 1500-816 BC allies. rockmanbob123 defends.

• indibil attacks using Neo-Hittite/Aramaean 1179-891 BC with Elamite 1500-816 BC allies. jaerho defends.

• rpadilla1988 attacks using Egyptian 1200-1150 BC with Luwian 1594-1180 BC allies. kronenblatt defends.

Please note the following

• Minor factions are used as the armies defending against major factions' attacks (as selected by the defending player).

• Minor factions are not linked to any particular region but can be applied anywhere, for any region, with no geographical constraints.

• The selected minor faction's army list must overlap (at least partially, with 1 year at least) the time period of the round.

• A minor faction can be selected only once by a player (i.e., either as an ally army or as a defending army) during the course of the tournament.

• A minor faction's army list can be selected by more than one player in the same round, whether as ally army or defending army.

• However, if a minor faction is selected as ally army by an attacking player, the defending player is not allowed to select the same minor faction as defending army.
