    Any summary of the games? Standing?

    I suggest you start recruiting for the next round. The tournament is definately a good thing.

    ACS, I think you have just joined the army, they should contact you (probably PM), soon.

    Silent Hunter and I were chatting. I think it may be better idea to schedule a time slot on a weekend to run the tournament instead. I think most players are either in Europe or North America, there are about 9 hours worth of time zones to cover which isn't that bad.

    Anyhow, looks like Wodewick and I had a scheduling problem. :) Match is on hiatus.

    My and Gabeed's game. Tried to hide stuff in the woods and hit him in the back. Would have worked out better if I drew him in more but I didn't want to sit infront of the red line. This map was really small. Neither of us were sure what was really going on but I won after a rough start.

    Army was:

    2 Triarii
    4 Principles
    4 Hastati
    2 Pedites
    4 Samnites
    2 Extraordinari
    2 Equites

    Edit:
    ... I think I accidentally used Polybian Equites but I don't think that should have changed anything since Camillian Equites are better by 2 defense. Not really sure what to do about this.

    Also, Gabeed found one accidental charge through on the left side. One of my Extraordinari ran too far to the left and hit a few Samnites that got hung up on the Illyrians while chasing the enemy general. Then after that, all our cavalry merged into this massive ball that caught those guys in again. Neither of us noticed it during the game because of all the trees. It probably wouldn't have mattered too much. At another point, 2 of Gabeed's phalanxes merged somewhere in the center but it didn't matter by then and hardly intentional. Trees everywhere... so many trees...

    Gabeed said he didn't really have a problem with these issues so I guess we'll have to wait til a ruling. I'm guessing he'll probably post his opinions on this later.

    Fighting isn't about winning, it's about depriving your enemy of all options except to lose.

    I guess this tourney has faded away, eh?

    Well It's not really faded away yet. It jsut happens that mos Jury members, orgnisers are short on time. I think it is rather "In the backroom for now". It might get active again some time later.

    Its too bad, I really like this tournament, though I played more non tourney games then tourney games thanks to this tourney .

    I tried playing a round 2 game with Alexanderthegreaterer yet he didn't have hamachi so I deinstalled hamachi in order to play using gamespy yet gamespy refuses to let s play a game. !
