    Default EBOT 2011 June

    Europa Barbarorum Online Tournament 2011 June

    Point System

    A very straightforward point system will be used. For each win, you gain one point. For each loss, you lose one point. NO TEAM GAMES.

    There are two sets of points. Each player has his own point count. The second point count is the factional point count. Each faction has a number of wins and a number of losses equivalent to the total wins and losses of all players using that faction during that tourney month. Points only are counted for every month. There are no rollover points.

    Signing Up
    Threads like these must be set up one or two weeks prior to the beginning of the tourney. Registrations will not be accepted after the start of the month. Let this be an example. To sign up for the tourney, reply to this post with your faction of choice. And I mean your final choice of faction. No changes will be allowed mid-way through the tourney. Once it begins, you're set. The only option you will have is to opt-out of the tourney (that is also final; no opt-out and then resume; if you have to have a week off, that's fine, but don't "fold your cards" unless you're completely sure).

    Note: On Hamachi and in-game you must use the same name you use on The Guild. This is to avoid confusion. If you have a really long name, like "Hannibal Khan the Great", and you choose to use usernames like Hannibal Khan, that's fine. A shortened version of a long name is fine as long as it is recognizable.

    Replays
    You must upload and submit replays by posting links to the replays here in the form of a reply. Remember to state who you played against and who the winner was. Only winners are allowed to post replays so as to avoid duplicates. Thank you.

    Jury
    Every month, the tourney will have not only participating players but also jury members. Jury members cannot double as players in the same month, and players cannot double as jury members in the same month. The Jury is a board of a maximum of 9 members that adjudicate cases of conflict and protest. The minimum size of the Jury is 3 because it takes the agreement of 3 Jury members to come to a final verdict on who the winner was in special cases and whether cheating took place in protests for disqualification (DQ, wherein the game is not counted toward gain or loss). Three cases of cheating and the player is removed from that month's tourney, and his score contribution removed from the factional score as well. To be a Jury member you must state below that you wish to be so. Remember: This means you will not participate as a player and will solely make yourself available to review replays for cases of protest and conflict. There presumably won't be too many of these, so it shouldn't be much of a problem! All Jury members are respected and admired for their sacrifice. Thank you all.

    And that's about it. If you want more of the nitty-gritty details, such as rules, what to do, what not to do, what to expect, etc., visit the website (it's a must-read for even the oldies).

    Randomer10 will also fight as Averni, since they field the most cost effective mass murderers in the game.

    But since Averni can't fight against Nomads and have a lesser chance against phalanx then maybe I will fight as Rome or Carthage against them.

    So what are you going to play as exactly?

    And you're going with the name Randomer10?

    Averni against all factions which do not use super long range archers, fear units, phalanx, or horse archers.

    Will then switch to Rome or Carthage, based upon whim.



    The main reason is Averni lack of armoured archers and the longsword units in broad mass lack morale to be a line-holders.

    Unless the Averni can be given rhodian mercs or the bataroas mercs edited into being more expensive but with same moral as neitos - for there is no broad mass unit in between which has good morale.



    The tight mass units are fine, but if I use an army entirely made of them then it takes too little space on the battlefield - unless I field over 15 such units.

    I need one balanced army with broad mass units, but another army entirely made of tight mass units and cav (infnatry spam, no missiles units).

    Oh and as Randomer10

    EDIT: Feel free to game with anyone as you wish, though. The tourney is sure to bring an influx of gamers.

    Yes, It seems the MP has errors and crashes :(

    I would have made a backuper; but I was too lazy. Yes, EB clean with EBMP EDU.

    Also, if there are going to be judges, then I want to be one :)

    Lucky this time I've put a clean RTW1.5 in a rar so its just a matter about extracting it and installing EB :)
    And for some minutes I was realy scared that I had screwed my awesome Pontus and lusos campains because of the trivialscript+megapack+MP_EDUinstaller but luckly I could fix it. =)
    Now, after installing EB for MP, to some pratice, after so many time fighting AI I gess I will be pretty dull at MP...

    I don't recognize your name so I take it if you've ever played MP, it's been with friends or people you know, not strangers. That's a good thing, you'll gain experience! Which faction do you wish to register as?

    No, as far as I remember I've never played EB MP, and if I did with any TW at all was a long time ago.
    I'm praticing in customs to get some notions about the kind of army I'll choose since I allways play campain and its a totaly diferent logic.

    I've yet to choose but probably Lusos or Suebi (I'm sooooo going to get so pawned, lol).

    BTW, I cant find any definite rules and settings for EB, where they are (mnai, size settings, unit restritions, etc)?
    Edit, lol, nevermind, there's a link to it in your signature XD
    Since there are already Lusos I'm rolling Sweboz!

    I need to brush up on my skills for this, but all the major exams will be over by then, so I should have time.

    Dunno who to sign up as. Afraid to get my ass kicked by phalanxes if I go with trust ol' Sauromatae...will have to look at rosters once again! :D

    AS actually has a ridiculous roster...

    Yes. For those who are new or don't know the history behind EB Online, the first summer tourney session champion was MegasJinandJuice who won first place (gold; "Golden Kataphract"). He played as none other than AS.

    Hah, don't forget he was Romani first, I slaughtered him as AS multiple times so he decided to switch to AS! That being said, I'd like to play as the sons of Seleukos!

    Now let's find a good place for post 1000....

    I've got a few questions regarding rules.

    1 - Can we use any unit to be general bodyguard or should we stick to standart one?

    2 - Who choses the battle map for each round? For Ex western barbarians would be at advantage at while fighting in forests but in great trouble when fighting a steppe's army in its own habitat.

    3 - How much historical must be tactics? It'll be ok to use successor phalanx tactics with Sweboz (Speutagardaz as anvil lol) or consular tactics with lusos or should both factions stick to good old warband style, ambushes, etc?


    And btw, anyone for some pratice today? I've never did MP with EB so I should get some experience.

    The person hosting the battle. If you do not like the battle map, remake with a different map. This is why most people like to play on relatively level maps. I still recommend EB maps because they are more diverse than a grassland. Grasslands are really whack, to use colloquial terminology, because they lack anything you could use tactically, such as a small forest and what else have you.
    3 - How much historical must be tactics? It'll be ok to use successor phalanx tactics with Sweboz (Speutagardaz as anvil lol) or consular tactics with lusos or should both factions stick to good old warband style, ambushes, etc?
    Use whatever tactics that help you actually win, historical or otherwise.

    Grasslands are used since they offer no advantage to either side, maps with forests, etc.. encourage camping.

    It was linguistic cleverness. The question was this or that. By answering yes the point I'm trying to make is you may use both actual general's units as generals as well as other, ordinary units, whether they be mounted or dismounted. Anything is fine as the general on the field. I hope that answers your question (=

    I'm going to log on for a little while tonight.

    And to Vartan, yes it does, thank you. Often cleverness, like sarcasm is lost over the internet.
