In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue and while he died without knowing it, he "discovered" a new world.

Round 1 will be played on New World There will be 120 players divided into 24 5-player games.
Escalating (to represent the ships sending more colonist and soliders over)
Unlimited (to represent the freedom of movement of explorers)
Fog (since you don't know what you're going to find in a new world)
Sequential (to represent the different waves of settlers)

24 winners of these games will advance to Round 2

Over the next 300 or so years (give or take a couple of decades) European powers competed for supremacy on the new continent. In this tournament we'll focus on the English entry into the fray-the 13 colonies and their battle for independence from 1770-1783

Round 2 will be played on 13 Colonies. There will be 24 players playing in 6 4 player games
Escalating (to represent the escalating nature of the conflict of the colonies during the 1760s and 70s)
Chained (to represent the restrictions on troop movments during time of war)
Sunny (to represent the knowledge of both sides for the terrain and the conflicted nature of the issues between men who thought of themselves as loyal to the king)
Sequential (to represent the flow of different battles)

6 winners will advance to Round 3.

Four score and four years after the signing of the Declaration of Independence the new nation engaged in a conflict among itself. It was a war in which more American lives were lost than in all other wards combined. Our third phase of this tournament will remember this portion of our history.

Round 3 will be played on the American Civil War map They will play 2 3 player games
Escalating (to represent the way the conflict escalated over the eighty years of the nation)
Adjacent (to represent the difficulty of troop movements when so many of the troops had no shoes)
Fog (to represent the constant haze of gunpowder)
Sequential (to represent the early gains by the CSA and the later ones by the Union)

2 players will advance to Round 4

Today the United States is a thriving community full of different regions. We have the industrial regions of New England, the home spun Great Lakes, the warm home SouthEast, the hot and thriving SouthWest, the beautiful cool Rockies and the majestic West. Our two finalist will play 7 games, one on each regional USA map pack and the seventh on the USA map itself.

In the event a freemium makes the finals, there will be 2 games at a time, otherwise all 7 will be played at once.

Settings for the finals.
no spoils (to represent the unspoiled beauty of my homeland)
adjacent (to represent the neighbors in each of us)
Sunny (to represent the generosity of American families)
Sequential (to represent the innate sense of fair play)

Sounds like a format I'll hate, but to pay respect to the great Mel Brooks film, I feel the need to join this tournament. I'm in.

"Torquemada - do not implore him for compassion. Torquemada - do not beg him for mercy. Torquemada - do not ask him for forgiveness. Let's face it - you can't Torquemada anything!"
