24th Foot Battle Event

Aternox:
Not a fancy thread I'm afraid but should tell you everything you need to know:

The 24th AZWR Regiment (UK/EU based) is now opening our Saturday 8pm (UK time event) for other regiments to come join. This is almost always a VS bots event. Our regiment is small but we are just going to get some events going with other regiments invited while our own group lasts, especially since there are no other open EU events for this mod

Event structure

We start a map with 150 bots on the Zulu team (if there are too many to begin with the games lags out) and each win adds +100 bots, until 350 bots max. After the 3rd-5th round we start a new map and repeat with the bots at 150 again. IF gameplay was noticibly too easy for the brits at the 350 bots round(s), the map is changed deliberately to one that increases difficulty. We may also invite a regiment to play on the Zulu faction (non sharpshooter) and give the brits a sapper later on to change things up a bit.

The troop rules are subject to change

Groups may change troops between rounds at their own will if there are spare slots in that troop. New troop rule would apply

We ask that you bring a minimum of 5 people and leaders/representatives do not need to join our TS. Our server is currently 60 slots - we wouldn't accept more than 60 as the number of bots needed is far too laggy. Finally, if your group complies with the rules we should invite you to come to our event again
