Hello and welcome! I am NateWolfman, official Tournament/Clan Challenge guy for 'The Phoenix warlords' and today i present to you, an 8-way clan challenge! A discussion was placed and opinions were asked of some other clans and here we have it. Before you look below to sign up, please, a few ground rules

BASIC CONDUCT
1) All maps, settings, and ways the groups are done are set and final, please do not complain about how these settings, They have been discussed and while they may not fit everyone's ideal settings it is best.
2) note, all maps were chosen at random by myself (with a few exceptions)
3) 8 clans will play, and while joking is fine, please no bad feelings, i like my events to be a happy place

WHY PLAY THIS CHALLENGE?
-The biggest and best reason, bragging rights! if you can beat out 7 other clans in this challenge there is no doubt in your skills.
-This is part 1... the next time i host this challenge, your participation here will matter
+If you are in the top 4 clans you will be reserved a spot next time around
+If you are in the bottom 4 clans you will NOT be allowed to participate the next time this event happens. and YES this applies to the phoenix warlords as well, we dont set limits and ditch them just for us although you may participate in part 3, part 2 you may not.

ahh, made a mental note on that one and forgot to officially update it it will come back up tomarrow (that event i mean) until then,just know it will be AoR and basically the same format haha

[jaydog]

I am up for what ever, a little one on one or some dubs nate, just let me know where you want me

confirming the bandits entry

emm thought vace was teh leader of BpB

[lord voldemort]

just some notes i dont think nyc is basic i would of assumed basic to be classic

[hulmey]

Im quite sure i asked you this in the pm i sent you but do we (clans) have to make the games!?!

[wcaclimbing]

This is awesome.

one question: how will it be decided who wins the terminator section? Is it whoever kills the most opponents, since the base of terminator is killing your enemies? If its last-one-standing moves on, then you could technically just call it standard instead of terminator.

[BENJIKAT IS DEAD]

just some notes i dont think nyc is basic i would of assumed basic to be classic

both have a ridiculously high "first mover advantage"... (... and surely Waterloo can be classed as basic ... just for me )

one question: how will it be decided who wins the terminator section? Is it whoever kills the most opponents, since the base of terminator is killing your enemies? If its last-one-standing moves on, then you could technically just call it standard instead of terminator.

indeed - the winning of the challenge will surely be more important than a few points here or there... so if the purpose of making it terminator was to avoid stalemates, then a minor rethink may be in order (?) - I'm sure you don't want 200+ round challenge maps (especially when that part needs 2 lots of games!)

[jiminski]

What's all this then!?

shh Don't listen to Benji! .. he's sneaky

[Natewolfman]

just some notes i dont think nyc is basic i would of assumed basic to be classic

it was originally classic but had some complaints from other clans and within the clan so it changed, just didnt change the wording

yes, that was the purpose actually. since 4-way flat rate has a high stalemate ratio, i made it terminator to hopefully help keep that at bay... and the plan was last man standing.

as for the 1v1, NYC is staying for now, should it prove to be too much of an advantage next time around it may change, but the ratonal is, more strat involved for that map, especially with rail lines, so much so that strat is FAR more important with this map then the drop

So as it's last man standing, then (assuming winning the clan challenge is more important than the individual pts - something that is definitely the case for us) it may as well be standard - and the stalemate issue is still there.... My only suggestion is that you "call" the games after a set number of rounds.

yerpo..set the round limit now....then use bob to determine...im assuming most of us are using it

i have fixed AoR, update will appear on the post shortly

[hulmey]

i have fixed AoR, update will appear on the post shortly

i agree with Benny boy about the 1 vs 1 on NYC...The starting armis s huge and most people have never payed on this map before.

thats my concern....i was under impression basic meant that basic...ie 42 territory map
classic is fine as long is it aint unlimited..and its best of 7...and if classic is such a prob pick something else
but the basic challenge should be that basic...geographical 42 terr...ie 14 each to start
