SMALL RULE CHANGE

Ok, since i tested the matchups with solo skirmish, I didn't know that for some esoteric reason, the mp option would be different. it seems now that 16 units would be a more efficient limit. therefore:

1. if you have started your games and were able to build an army with less than 20 point unused, contitnue.
2. if you have started your games and were not able to build an army with less than 20 points unused, resign the game, and restart.

guillaume, you send me a new challenge for catholic 32-38 vs swedes 30-34.

moving forward, all new challenges are now understood to be for games with a 16 unit limit.

Also, in the event of an unplayable game due to the random map, for instance huge amount of woods, if both sides agree, the game may restart.

but 16 unit is still short. some challenge are already impossible but if you are oblige to leave point or to take heavy but bad units that doesn't make sense.

and by the way, if you change the rules, all games must restart

16 unit limit is good enough to build an army without wasting over 20 points. it makes sense that a commander doesn't get to hand pick his army. historical commanders don't have that luxury.

you take it too seriously. just play and enjoy the games.

[krieg63]

so it will be without me

[pantherboy]

Everyone is laboring under the same conditions so it shouldn't sway the results either way. Everyone will have the same tough and easy matchups so everyone will enjoy equal access to scoring. But I wouldn't change the tournament rules as the games in both rounds should be resolved under the initial conditions. If anything just allow the Catholics fighting the Swedes to have 16 units (though I'm fine with playing at 90 points short).

OK.

I'll contact iandavidsmith to pick up guillaume's games.

doesn't make a difference either way. i don't understand why people get worked up over such things. this is meant to be hobby, relaxation time.

sorry if I don't understand rigid rules and sorry If I have no pleasure to have to follow your decision...

Should I be fighting ggarynorman? I joined a battle with him. But in the table, I'm up against pantherboy.

yes. you have to challenge me and pantherboy but if you look vertically from your name ggarynorman is one of the 3 players who are challenging you.
