But back to the topic:
I suggest to give the winner a money price instead of a OH beta access. Far better imo.

This is not the Wohlfahrt. You can't hand out money to that many people, especially if you want to make it a high prize. Even if you offer 10$ to each of the winners, that's still a lot of money out of pocket for a 15-20 man team.

Early Ostheer access is a much better prize because it doesn't matter if the teams are large or small it's a good prize for someone whom does not already have such access.

And plus I don't think we have that much money on standby :P. Plus $10 isn't going to get you far (2 subway footlongs, mini shopping spree at dollar store). Access to Ostheer isn't going to get you far either but at least it's fun :D.

Ostheer Beta will be released a great deal of time before it is released publicly, therefore it is a grand prize for those whom do not currently have this access.

You could also play for, I dunno, Fun.

You'll have a solid week to plan when the game will be held with your opponent.

Re: The Great Patriotic War-Eastern Front Tournament/Event

Hey, can someone explain how the western front will open up, because I find myself knowing the Western front maps better than the Eastern front maps, plus there are more 1v1 on the western front. And also, how will teams communicate amongst each other, and how will battles be organized?
No one can stop the German panzer divisions.

Likely, we will also have to resort to using some Vcoh maps on the EF as well as on the WF, because there are not enough EF maps to support larger numbers like the ones presented so far.

The WF will open up when allied command (and players) believe it will be a good time to call D-Day. At that point some EF players will be redirected to the WF, and the Axis players will have to defend their territories. (Axis will start with holding France as a whole.)

There will be games of all types on all fronts.

I don't know if I can allow that at this time. This would proportionally shift the tourney into the Axis hands. There are 2 more people joining the Allies (If I can get their lazy butts to post!)

I (and some devs as well) feel that Ostheer and a badge are a fine prize :) If you feel like that is nothing, that's ok. There's always playing for fun.

I am displeased you have not joined though.

Hopefully we will see some nice casts!
#117492

Re: The Great Patriotic War-Eastern Front Tournament/Event

I'll still be around, but unable to play games because my exams are closing in.

Hopefully everyone who signed up is still around ;)

Glimz and I will be signing into allies. Perhaps 1 axis player can go allies?

Re: The Great Patriotic War-Eastern Front Tournament/Event

Bad news, it looks like one of my exams was rescheduled for the week of the 13th.

If it's Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday then this isn't really a problem, maybe we can postpone it by a week if it is Monday or Friday? What's the general consensus?

That was sort of what the sign-up period was for, for players to meet up and play against each other, to get ready.

The tourney is planned to begin next sunday, as in the first post.

Well in that case it would be 14-13 :P. Then we'd need another Axis player XD.

Maybe something to do with Italians(no offense meant ;)). My name has to do with fishes (which I like) so maybe your name should be something related to you ;). IDK any Italian regiments so can't help you :P

Edit: Vito's army? XD. I remember your text once said "Vito does not approve of........." that's why :P

The Axis is already a superior team statistically.

It's cool. I'd be joining Allies so an Italian name wouldn't fit so well.
