the trend that going 1st equals win in a far to high % of the games for this pointsystem to even kick in looks like the trend, so for the next tournament i had this idea..
Example
Player A vs. Player B
Player A gets first turn and is only allowed to deploy his troops no attacks allowed
Player B got 2nd turn and is allowed to both deploy and attack on his first round
so effectively the turn-order is now reversed but Player A got a bonus-stack of 10-18 troops so even if he is now effectivly going 2nd he has some back up to get back in the game..
could this be a good solution to the problem?
this would in that case be the rules for the next issue of this tournament, the semi-finals and finals will continue after the format stated in 1st post..
