Historical Battles Contest Rules

[Tomisama]

I think Historicals are the supreme challenge, as you are forced to play with the cards you are dealt (so to speak). No too much different than real battle situations a field general would have to face.

Of course it’s difficult to make a Contest out of them (Historical Battles). About the best that can be done is comparing Kill scores, really just for fun anyway, but does give us something to show for our efforts. And I think that win or loose, that the individual Faction scoring is important, as these HBs are not necessarily balanced challenges. So the best of both eventualities has to be taken into the accounting.

One major flaw in what is presented so far, is that there are no distinct Match Assignments. And as much as the possibility exists for folks to randomly get together, the experience of several years at the CWC has taught me different.

So, I am going to propose a bracket system that pits two Codies (or 2v2 in the 4 player HBs) against each other for a 2 Battle Competition. Both play as both sides and turn in their scores to compare for the weekly (may go to monthly) best score honors. Nothing to take too seriously. Like I said before, “really just for fun anyway”.

I am hoping this all still sounds interesting to those who posted interest before. I am going to take it on faith that those who were interested before, still are (if not please let me know). On the list so far are:

Nihilist
Tibilicus
Beefy
Craterus
Shadow
Wishazu
Tomi
