[color=#000040]Details: Travelling through time-and-space in your cunningly cloaked inter-dimensional vessel, you are the custodian of all history, safeguarding against the evil manipulations of other time travellers, with the help of your cryogenically-suspended army.
Recently, you have safely prevented the future Galactic Federation from changing history with their fleet of TTTs (Time-Travelling Terminators). This also included preventing them from ever constructing the TTTs by elimination of an original time-lord (of the homeworld Amanecer) who leaked time-travel secrets many millenia ago. Your exploits have been succesfully chronicled in Chronicles of a Time Lord Vol I
Having enjoyed a period of peace and tranquility, you seek a little excitement and decide to travel to the world of Atlantis, circa 2574, to witness the transofrmation of Atlantis City into a fully operational space-city, capable of taking-off and travelling through space to other worlds.
As you pass through time-and-space however, Orac (the computer of your SATKOM - Space-and-Time Kinaesthetic Operation Module) alerts you:

As you approach Atlantis, Orac provides an update:
Chronicles of a Time Lord - Volume II
Chapter II:
Thinking your mission is complete, you light your e-cigar, only for Orac to flash into life again with a further update:
Chronicles of a Time Lord - Volume II
Chapter III:
After celebrating your victories in the Mote's principal spaceport, Orac provides a further update:
In Chapter I, 20 players will play 3 matches in 4 groups of 5 players.
In Assassin games, the winning player will score 4 points. Other surviving players will score 1 point. In Terminator games, the winning player will score 2 points. All players will also score 1 point for each termination.
The top 2 players from each group will progress to the next round. plus the two 3rd-placed players with most points*. Players progressing will take half of their points total with them (rounded-up).
In Chapter II, 10 players will play 3 matches in 2 groups of 5 players. Points scoring will be as above. The top 2 players from each group will progress to the next round. plus the 3rd-placed player with most points*. Players progressing will NOT take points with them.
In Chapter III, 5 players will play 3 matches in a group of 5 players. Points scoring will be as above. The top player will win the tournament. In the event of equal points, the players concerned will undertake a tie-break match.
* If necessary players will also be compared on the number of terminations, then number of rounds survived in the chapter in question. If this does not prove to determine qualifying players then a tie-break match will occur.
Fog of War will be present in the battles of this volume due to the lack of military intelligence in some eras and interference by alien technology and nuclear fall-out in others.
The cryogenically-suspended army are only relatively fast-moving over long distances, therefore adjacents reinforcements will be in place.
Due to the unpredictable nature of the SATKOM's improbability drive, spoils will be of varying nature.
(Other settings will be Assassin or Terminator, Sequential and Automatic)
All reserves will be sent a PM when an opening occurs. The first reserve to respond will gain a place.
In Chapter I, reserves will be sought through the create/join a tournament forum. In Chapters II & III, players who were only just elimiated in the previous chapter will be invited first of all.
Where players have equal points, equal numbers of terminations and rounds survived across all of the matches of any chapter, then a one-match standard tie-break will occur. The map will be the same as the final match of the round. Escalating spoils will be implemented.
If a player misses a turn then he cannot score any points in the game in question. If a player deadbeats at any stage then he will be ejected from the tournament.
Players will be informed when they have a match 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.
Competitors must inform the tournament organiser if they have a regular partner or opponent that is also featuring in the tournament. The organizer can then ensure these competitors do not play together to avoid any potential claims of foul play by other players.
If reports of suspected foul play are made and the competitors in question have not declared that they are regular partners / opponents then they will be both be ejected from the tournament without question or the need for irrefutable evidence.
Where fog of war is present, the competitor who goes first in round 1 must either wait 10 hours before taking their turn, or inform their opponent(s) in game chat of any regions conquered during their first move, and who from. Failure to do either will mean the competitor in question is unable to score any points in the game.
"1. Communication. The team that communicates well is successful. Whether you use in-game chat, live chat, PMs, IMs, Skype, or what have you, every team member needs to know the game plan. Whatever works."
