2nd North American Groupfighting Tournament

[Rere]

Groupfighting has arrived on the shores of North America at last! There

are new trophies to be conquered here, by many a hero and many a team. Too

long has the tournament remained in the confines of old Europe, now it's

time for the trans-atlantics to show off what they've got.
 
So what is it all about? The Groupfighting Tournament is a 5 aside musket

melee tournament, open to anyone and everyone capable of getting together

a 7 personel team and that can turn up on the day. The tournament normally

plays out through a randomly seeded knockout layout, each match being a

best of 5 rounds (except in the cases of the Final and Third Place matches

- these are first to 5). For a better impression of what it's like to

fight in the tournament, check out some of the YouTube footage of the

European Groupfighting Teams in their respective European tournaments:

Better start training now, you've only got 2 weeks! The tournament will be

held on Wednesday, 23rd January, 21:00 EST. We hope to see many

class-A teams signing up for the Tournament's Debut in North America and

look forward for some awesome melee action!

We'd also like to mention Warbawz, our Official Tournament Sponsor, who

has lent us a server for the event. We give a big thanks to Warbawz and

recommend Warbawz's services to all people in search of top quality

Warband Servers.

That's it for the introduction. Please read the following details

to make sure you're fully informed of what is required to join

the tournament, but I'm sure you've got the idea thus far of what the

Groupfighting Tournament is all about!

1.1 Teams are to contain a minimum of 7 players and a maximum of 8

players.

1.2 Teams are allowed to have 5 persons fighting at any given time.

2 members are expected to sit out if all 7 persons turn up, but it should

not be the same persons every round. This will hopefully stop people from

being understregth in the fights. (In the event of a team only being able

to 4 people for a given round the opposing team is supposed to only

field 4 as well, any number under 4 is tough luck for the

team with no-shows, incase the opposing team does not want to go under 4

members to further balance it.)



2.1 No shooting.

2.2 Only line infantry models are to be used.

2.3 Only rankers are to be used.

2.4 Only bayonets are to be used

2.5 Formations are not required since it's all melee.

2.6 There are 5 rounds to every match (will stop once someone reaches 3 to

save time). The Final and the Bronze Match will be in a first to 5 format

instead.

2.7 The Combatants are not to leave the arena until the fight is over.




3.1 Common sense will be used by the

organizers so anything not specificly mentioned may be enacted at the

organizers discretion.

3.2 The severity and therefore the course of action following rule

breaches will be up to the organizers to judge.

3.3 Don't argue with us mid-event, it unfairly slows things down for

everyone else, speak to us afterwards if you feel that we have treated you

unfairly.





4.1 Teams are to register using the following template:
 
Include a Steam ID for the Team Captain!
