Fair, perhaps I am still sore from my loss to you before!
I also lost one map as defender where attacker landed with sneaky infantry on north east bridge and blew it up within the same turn leading to a loss for me.
It would be good if victory conditions were more clear as currently it seems defender loses if attacker accomplishes any of the primary objectives? Is that correct?

The attackers only Primary objective is to cut the railway. That means blowing either of the two bridges.

Ok, thanks for that! Just a word of warning to the lucky ones that make it to round 3:
The attacker wins when he/she captures the rail bridge. This is made clear when you click on the "?" of the objective and read the detailed text, but is not clear (at least it wasn't to me) just looking at the objective's text. The objective's text hints that the bridge must be destroyed, which can only happen on the turn after the unit was moved and by an engineer. I made this mistake once already, so don't repeat it!

Hi ruski_canuk.
I've set up our two challenges and PM'd you but it doesn't look like you've seen the message yet.
I'm ready to start play whenever you are.

I would like to report my game has ended early because of Uran21 resigning from both games.
I have asked about it via PM and he has said that he wanted to withdraw from the tournament.
This is it for now but he’ll probably give confirmation here aswell.

LynxCom ... from your screenshot, it's looks like you're trying to play me instead of dolphin0810.
I'm happy to give you a game though as my opponent is a no-show thus far

Hi Robert,
Your folders and files should look like this. My guess is that you've got one folder too many between Scenarios and R2_BattleNewBritain?
Ta
Did you get it set up? I've got to crawl out from under some stuff due to bidness travel today but can play tomorrow as we discussed. Let me know if you can't get this set up correctly. Maybe I can help in that regard.

The procedure is the same as for the first round.
Player 1 creates two challenges using player 2s name as password.
Please start and play both mirrored games in parallell.
You have two weeks to finish the games.
Please take a screenshot of the final turn (victory message and turn overview).
The scenario used for this round is a variation of the official New Britain scenario, replacing the Japanese with the Germans.
So the focus here is air combat.
You can download it here:

Good luck to everybody!

Number of radar stations lost/destroyed and number of air units destroyed/lost are the primary objectives.
In the event that neither side fulfills both or each side fulfills one primary we'll look at the secondaries; destroying/protecting ships and killing fighter/bomber units.
This probably means that players must check their status very carefully to decide what primary/secon daryobjective they will be their main concerns.
