We have reached 80 players, just 2 below the previous record set in Season 1. Classical Antiquity and the Themed Event are now full and I can only offer reserve places for these two sections. There are still 9 vacancies in Late Antiquity, 5 vacancies in Early Middle Ages and 2 vacancies in Biblical. I could still open a fourth division in Biblical if there was a sudden surge of players signing up over the weekend, but I think that is unlikely.

Yes, you pick one set of allies at the start of the competition if you want to and then use the same allies in all 9 matches.

I'm in. Armies to follow.

1. Byzantine 963-987 AD w/Arab (Syria/Iraq) 890-1008 AD
2. Sassanid 591-628 AD w/Arab (Bedouin)
3. Dailami 928-1055 AD
3. Arab (Abbasid) 874-946 AD w/Arab (Syria/Iraq) 890-1008 AD


Cheers

And pantherboy makes 82! So we have equalled the record set in Season 1 now.

Today I will send out reminder invitations and I expect to pick up a few more recruits over the weekend. Then it is normally the case that players will still apply in ones and twos as we move closer to the tournament start date. We have 6 divisions in Classical Antiquity; it looks like we might only have 5 divisions in Late Antiquity as we have been stuck on 51 players for a few days now; we are well on the way to getting 6 divisions in Early Middle Ages; Biblical looks like it will have 3 divisions again; and the Themed Event will have one pool of 12.

I will be holding the Group Stage draw on Sunday live here, as soon as I have finished the draw for the KO Tournament semi-finals (which will only take 5 minutes). The Themed Event group stage draw is unseeded, so anyone can be drawn in the same group together. I will draw out the 3 players for Group A first, then update the thread. Then I will draw out the 3 players for Group B and so on.

Not sure if Batesmotel has signed up yet but I am playing him now so will prompt him
