Rome: Rise and Fall (Rome II Event)

[Colonel Howe]

Summary
Welcome ladies and gentlemen! Trust me, I am very aware the game does not come out until Septmeber 3rd but I'd like there to be a nice amount of people to start playing a week after the game's released. The point of this series of tournaments is to successfully reenact the Rise and eventual downfall of Rome. The only difference being those who lost battles can of course win them. The series will entail the most important struggles in Roman history and while the game might restrict accuracy, we will work within it. Play in epic struggles like the Punic Wars, the Rise of Julius Caesar and the adventures of Constantine and Julian the Apostate!

Set-Up
Each tournament will be set up as follows. These events will occur in a chronologically correct order and each event can have 12 people maximum. Most likely on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, 4 people will fight each other each of these days. The winners will then fight each other and this will continue until it is whittled down to one. This one person will receive a boost in rank (yes, there is a ranking system) and will move unto the next tournament. The person who comes in second will have a spot reserved for themselves in the next event if they wish to use it. This will continue for all 10 events and the overall winner who has won the most battles and lasted the longest will end up with the highest rank possible (besides my rank of course) and I will purchase them a Rome II DLC. All this time and effort put in for a $10 DLC and some virtual gratification might seem small but it's meant to be. You're playing a game after all

Our Punic Wars event is full but there's still plenty of room to fight the mighty Macedonians or as CA calls them, Makedonians.

[Jarko]

This looks promising, thinking about signing up.

[Colonel Howe]

Awesome, while I am away from steam and all it's capabilities I can and will be accessible via these forums if you have any questions

[kpetschulat]

... there's still plenty of room to fight the mighty Macedonians or as CA calls them, Makedonians.

That's because it is Makedonian. I'm working on reserving the game, and if I can manage to get it, I would love to take part in this.
