Ever wonder what clan wars were like back in 2007 when they started? Ever wish you could travel back in time and be apart of it? YOUR WAIT IS OVER!
We’d like to take the time to celebrate the “good ol’ days”! In 2006/2007, 71 MAPS were available for clans to use for wars! Not only that, but there were only:
Automatic Sequential No Spoils, Escalating, or Flat Rate Spoils Chained, Adjacent, or Unlimited Forts and....NO FOG! (Only Sunny Games were Available back then) and...NO TRENCH!
Mini WarsPrivs Available from April 1st-Sept 15th 2017 21 Game Mini Wars 3 Dub + 3 Trip + 3 Quad + 1 Clan Choice Home (D/T/Q) 3 Dub + 3 Trip + 3 Quad + 1 Clan Choice Away (D/T/Q) Tie Breaker Classic Trips ESC Chained Sunny Exchanged in one set
Details Rule #1 - Leaving your bickering at the door. Please resolve all issues amongst yourselves unless you absolutely must involve a CD. These games are FOR FUN, please try to keep that in mind.
- These mini-wars are available for 5.5 months starting on April 1st, 2017. - Schedules are up to both clans, as long as the wars complete by Nov 30th, 2017. - All MAPS and SETTINGS must conform to the above list - You must use a minimum of 10 players between all home and away games
- These wars are just for FUN, and therefore will go UNRANKEDon the F400 unless BOTH clans agree to rank them before hand and post in bold in the OP.
Prizes - EVERY Mini War is eligible for DOUBLE RAFFLE TICKETS for your clan players for the Great 10 Year Clan Giveaway! Thats HALF the games and DOUBLE the rewards! - There will not be medals for each war, but every player who participates will get a unique Clan Medal celebrating the 10 Year Mini War Event. This will be the only time you are ever able to earn this clan medal. - Each Mini War clan will also be put into its own special drawing. Winners will get two tickets, other participants will get 1 ticket into the drawing. - Mini Wars will not count towards stats on the clan page
- Prize for the drawing will be a pool of credits split amongst the winning clans members.

Who knows, maybe we can muster some muster for a war in a few months. Will be unlikely that TOFU can commit to several wars though, so for those who are very interested in meeting us, I would suggest sending cat exceptionally large bouquets of roses, adjacent with the cutest kittie adorned cards money can buy. Said cards should contain eloquent poems about why she should pick your clan to sink her claws into on the field of battle. PM me for her home address. Screw roses, and just send catnip.
PS, was surprised to see KoTM was that old, otherwise no surprises on either maps or settings.

Potentially, but this year the focus is on 10 year celebrations. Part of those celebrations is to get back to having fun! New things, difficult challenges, interesting twists...real wars are good, rankings are good, but perhaps people enjoying themselves and breaking out of the norm will be more beneficial for now.
Who knows, clans are free to participate here and get double tickets or choose to go the bigger route of a ranked pick up war for two clan raffle tickets and singular player tickets. I dont want to steer people to something specific, I just want them to do something they feel will be fun So I'm trying to provide people with avenues for accomplishing that.
This is a unique event where you can get priv's for smaller than usual, unranked wars on predefined maps and settings associated with our 10 year clan anniversary and possibly get something nice in the end just for having fun. Its a lot different then prestigeous events and big rank implications on difficult maps and settings with very talented teams as opponents.
Cheers

Love the idea, but don't really get this. I don't consider it fun unless something is on the line besides bragging rights.
The way I looked at it was you can always at any point play a regular war that's ranked. But you can't always play unranked wars which is part of the unique twist of the event. And for those like you who want ranked mini wars, you just got to find someone agreeable to it.
But this allows clans that normally might not play vs one another do so in a fun / unique environment here

Are we under any restrictions regarding map usage, besides only using those available 10 years ago? For example, if a clan so chooses, can they use just 2 maps for all 10 of their home games?

The event has no restrictions for it (for example if clans wanted to do an all doodle or all KOTM war under this event it would fit) but clans are free to negotiate some sort of further restriction like max 1 per map or 2 per map etc.
I just wanted to leave it open for people to get creative.
