    Default 1st All Britannia Challenge Cup

    After several campaigns I am looking for a new challenge. So I got the idea of a challenge cup.
    Please read this to see if you want to join


    1st All Britannia Challenge Cup

    Rules:
    1. You play RTW patched or unpatched without mod
    2. You play very hard/medium/huge
    3. You play Brittania
    4. You do not bribe
    5. You fight all battles by yourself
    6. You do not besiege or attack any settlement held by Gauls, that is not one of the objectives
    7. You play straight on. Do not load an old stand.
    8. You do not use unfair tricks in your battles
    9. You count your losses as well as the losses of your enemies (w/o sea battles)
    10. You report frequently about your progress

    You can restart the game, but you have to start from the very beginning!
    Your game is over as soon as you hold all objectives.
    Everyone can join the cup.
    There will be a starting date (maybe 15th of June). Everybody plays one year (two turns) per day. Everybody who restarts has to catch up asap.

    Objectives:
    Conquer and keep
    - all inhabited islands (Britannia, Hibernia, Palma, Caralis, Sicily, Crete, Rhodes, Salamis)
    - Jerusalem and Damascus

    Valuation:
    1. You get 1,000 points for each objective (10,000 in total)
    2. You get minus 500 points for each year you are playing
    3. You get 1,000 points if you have the best kills/losses ratio in the end
    4. You get 1,000 points if you have lowest loss count
    5. You get 1,000 points for highest kill count
    6. You get extra 1,000 if you also take Chersanesos
    7. You get 3,000 if you also take Themiskyra

    The winner is the commander with most points. He is allowed to use the title BRITANNICUS under his name.

    And anyways, i refuse to download 1.2, because there isn't a noCD-crack for it. I prefer to play with a noCD-crack, as it takes away the inconvenience of having to spend 10 minutes looking for the CD whenever i want to play.

    So there are some difficulties in 1.0 and 1.2 , so I think it would be fair enough to play ver. of your choice.

    That means not counting sea battles, right?

    Agree with that, but I`ll give huge a try.

    And we`re supposed to start today, right?

    I post here `cause I don`t think I can participate still.

    Going to follow the competition closely and find out who`s going to get the Britannicus title though.

    Nah, I`m a bit unsure.

    Maybe I will participate, just not at the same game speed(like playing 4 turns everey second day).

    But I`m worried about the postcount in the Colosseum, hopefully there will come more posts soon.
