    Ok so here is me trying to make yet another attempt at making a shooooooooooggguunnn 2 total war tournament. This time however, it will not fail. An thanks to Mr. Alex Tran, we have an incentive for people to actually play in it. Here's how it is going to go. Each bracket is going to be a different time zone. If you live in that particular timezone, you will be playing other people in that particular timezone.

    Here are the first round battles.

    Eastern Timezone


    @obiwan11198 vs @LampRevolt
    Winner: Obiwan
    Western Timezone

    @yuri2045 vs @Jack118
    Winner: Yuri2045

    Europe Timezone

    @The Evil Major vs @madprince
    Winner: The Evil Major

    Oceania Timezone

    @theteremaster vs @Darth Rabidus

    Winner: Theteremaster

    The Second Round Battles Are:

    @yuri2045 vs @obiwan11198

    Winner: Obiwan11198

    @theteremaster vs @The Evil Major

    Winner: The Evil Major

    THE GRAND FINALE:

    Obiwan vs the evil major
    The winner of the eastern timezone will play europe's winner and the winner of the west will play oceania's winner. If your wondering why me and @GeneralofCarthage are not on there, it is so there could be an even amount of games, so we could properly have a second round without anybody playing extra games. The first round matchups can be played anywhere between tonight (Friday, May 4th) and next Sunday (may 13th). This should allow for adequate time to get a schedule together. Remember to send the replays.
    The 1 seed will play the 4 seed and the 2 will play the 3. Seeds will be determined randomly. Note what you are put on up here right now is just to see who is joining. Your actual seed will not be determined until we have everybody who will join on here.

    The each matchup will be a best of 2 out of 3. Whoever wins 2 out of the three games with their opponent moves onto the next round. For example, if I play Yuri in the first round, I would have to play him 3 times. Whichever one of us wins 2 out of the 3 moves on. Note that if you win the first two games, the third game is unnecessary as you would already have moved on to the next round.
    After the bracket rounds are finished, the winner from Eastern America will play winner from western America. The winner from Oceania will play the winner from Europe.

    The winners of those matchups will face each other. Then the overall winner will face Mr. Alex Tran himself.
    RULES:
    Battles Are To Be Fought Using Classical Battles! You must use an actual clan! This prevents people from using their own extremely vetted units and makes it more balanced.


    -You MUST play classical battles
    -No more than 6 of any unit
    -As for capping, I think CA did a good enough job with that already, but no more than 6 monk units total and no more than 3 of the same monk unit.
    -No camping.If you move into a defensive position and sit there, than that is fine. But just not moving or moving right next to the red line (unless of course you are strategically retreating or something) is unacceptable. Same goes with corner camping.
    -No strategic buildings in the battles.
    -All 3 battles must be fought on the same map to keep it fair and balanced.

    Battle replays must be sent (only 1 person needs to do it per battle) NKVDChannel@gmail.com This way, we can do videos for all the battles and put them up on the channel. The video shows how you accomplish this task.





    I will tag @Kali and @Chelsea366 and @Spartacus and @Vulcan200x because they were in the giveaway thread.


    Anyone who owns Shogun 2 Total war can join!

  1. theteremaster
    the Oceania timezone will be pretty deserted even if i go in. plus, it is quite easy for me to lose even if i do bring a FotS army. i will join in on behalf of my friend, if i do end up winning i will give it to her and try to bring her to the forums.

    deal?
  2. The Evil Major
    When will this tournament going to be held (dates)?
    'Cause I might sign up.
  3. Darth Rabidus
    I'll be in oceania, I'm no good and don't have FotS.
  4. yuri2045

  6. slydessertfox

  7. PineappleJoe
    I will join if some one buys me a PC capable of playing the game. I bought Shogun 2 and i can't even install it without my PC crashing.
  8. Benerfe
    What are your specs? Perhaps you can tweak it just right to play on low?

  10. slydessertfox
    Okay.
  11. PineappleJoe
    I don't know what i was thinking my pc can barley run empire total war on Low and i still bought the new game. I am a moron.
  12. Benerfe
    Well at least you can develop a mindset to strive to get enough money to buy a good pc, and finally play Shogun 2.

    Come on Shogun 2 calls for you!
  13. PineappleJoe
    Well i have enough money but... ski equipment is really expensive, and I'm looking at a pair of skis for 1000+USD witch would put a minor dent in my wallet but it would still be sufficient of me not being able to buy a new PC.
  14. Benerfe
    1.Skip ski equipment for your next big purchase.
    2.Buy a sauce boss PC/or order parts online.
    3.??????????????????
    4.Profit.

    Nah man skiing is what i do. The feeling you get as you are on top of the mountain looking down the slope is amazing. To me it's priority number one.

    I'm gonna extend the date until Wednesday.



    Also, I haz gotz somethingz to sayz. I couldn't control myself and "wasted" 95% of my money buying FOTS today. Soooo, if the tournament ends up having an odd number of people, I will immediately drop out, as to give it an even number of people.

    edit: Also, I would appreciate it if you guys saved the replays of your battles and send them to me at marcocrolla13@gmail.com. Also, I am gonna ask Feybart if you can send the replays to the NKVD gmail account as well. I will post how to find and email your replays later.
