The Emperor of Europe is an immortal, mythical figure, conqueror of all of the old empires of Europe as well as the Eastern Empires that attempted to stretch into Europe.
The Emperor will be the conqueror of all time, having taken control of Empires through thousands of years.
This tournament follows the Freestyle King of Europe (and incorporates lessons learnt from that tournament) and will be a pre-cursor to a potential Terminator World Championship (to determine the Ruler of the World) with regional qualifying groups. This is NOT the qualifying stage for that tournament however.
As with the Freestyle King of Europe, and akin to the American Leader tournament, this tournament is only open to Europeans.
With Europeans playing others from a similar time zone, and a relatively low number of players in each group, players will hopefully have regular turns.
Details: Ancient Empires and Invading Empires from the East (First Phase): Five Groups of 5, top 3 go through. All games Terminator, Freestyle, Flat Rate, Adjacent, Fog.
Each group will play 5 games on Ancient Greece, Alexander’s Empire, Imperium Romanium, Mongol Empire and Middle East maps.
Western European Empires Emerging from the Medieval Period (Second Phase): Three Groups of 5, top 2 go through, plus, the two best-placed 3rd-place players will progress. All games Terminator, Sequential, Escalating, Adjacent, Fog.
Each group will play 5 games on Iberia, France, Netherlands, British Isles and New World Maps.
The Rise of the Star and Fascism (Semi-Final Phase): Two Groups of 4, top 2 go through, plus the best-placed 3rd-place player. All games Terminator, Sequential, Flat Rate, Adjacent, Fog.
Each group will play 4 games on Soviet Union, WWII – Eastern Front, Germany and WWII – Western Front maps.
The Union of Europe (Final) 5 players. All games Terminator, Sequential, Flat Rate, Adjacent, Fog.
The final will 4 games played on the Europe and Europa maps (2 games on each). If, after 4 games, players are tied on points the Emperor of Europe will be determined by a best-of-three play-off on the Europe map.

Game Options show
Matches will be Terminator (obviously) and Sequential, except for the first round which will be Freestyle (to speed things up).
Players show
There will be 25 players.
Reserves show
All reserves will be sent a PM when an opening occurs. The first reserve to respond will gain a place.
Joining Games show
Players will be informed when they have a game and will have 24 hours to join. If they fail to do so then they will be ejected from the tournament and a reserve will replace them.
Winning Games show
Winners of each game are expected to PM the Tournament Organiser the order in which players finished (1st, 2nd etc.), and no.of terminations for each player.
Build-Up Games show
After 30 rounds I will review the game (if it is holding-up the schedule). Players will receive notification, and have five rounds to end the game. If this does not happen, the game is a draw, with the remaining points being shared (two players get 3 points each, three players get 2 points each, and if four or five players remain, they get 1 point each).
Future Tournaments show
If the tournament runs smoothly then future, much larger tournaments will be run. With more players, there would be an extra stage towards the end – a Modern Nations of Europe Stage - incorporating games on Ireland, Italy, BeNeLux (if a Belgium map doesn't turn up), Malta, Luxembourg (if a Belgium map does turn up), Scotland and Iceland. Another potential, although less likely, new stage would be The Cold War Stage (using Arms Race and Duck and Cover maps).
