LORDS OF HISTORY
Posted: Sat Dec 07, 2013 3:45 am
Away from the hypothetical to the fantasy matchups that could never have happened, we propose a scenario tournament, grounded in exhaustively researched history. Small, short and bloody.
Players:
Jonathan4290, fogman, pantherboy, batesmotel, iandavidsmith.
Scenarios: kalka river 1223, nicopolis 1396, angora 1402, tannenberg 1410, fornovo 1495.
Players are to play 8 matches in 2 rounds (4X2). Games are not paired.
Round 1
Legend: refer horizontally. For example: in Round 1, Jonathan4290 will play Tannenberg, Kalka River, Nicopolis, Angora. He will play as Ottomans in Nicopolis against Pantherboy, and as Ottomans in Angora against Batesmotel. He is also responsible for challenging Pantherboy and Batesmotel. Fogman (Poles) will challenge him in Tannenberg, and Iandavidsmith (Russians) will challenge him in Kalka.
Scenarios not played in round 1.
Jonathan: Fornovo
Fogman: Kalka
Pantherboy: Angora
Batesmotel: Tannenberg
Iandavidsmith: Nicopolis.
Scoring: players accumulate points from the percent of enemy casualties. For example: Fogman 31/30 (103%) vs Jonathan 28/30 (93%) means that Jonathan receives 10.3 pts and Fogman 9.3 pts.
Round 1 starts now and will end on Saturday December 28th. Casualties level will be taken at that point for all unfinished games. The convenor reserves the right to adjudicate unusual situations.
Round 2 will start Sunday December 29th and ends on Saturday January 20th. In round 2, players will be assured of playing the scenario they did not play in round 1 and for the scenarios they did play, assured of playing a different player and/or protagonist.
Scenarios not played in round 2:
Jonathan: Nicopolis
Fogman: Fornovo
Pantherboy: Tannenberg
Batesmotel: Angora
Iandavidsmith: Kalka
Challenges: players refer to the table for the 2 challenges to be made. Settings: Fog of War off, Double Moves off. Use password. Please make your challenges within the next 3 days.
