Big Panzer Corps Tournament

[Amadeus]

Hi guys and Panzercorps friends all around the world,

the German Panzerliga, also former official Panzer General Site in Germany, is starting an Open Tournament in September 2011. We decided to implement Panzercorps into our supported ladder system. For a hopefully good beginning we want you to take part in our Big Tournament. Open means that also player outside the Panzerliga may join to the tourney. But we hope to watch many other Panzercorps Multiplayer games in our league too. Here are the preliminary Rules of the Panzercorps Tournament:

1) Every player has a known player name and an email address.
2) Playing mode (group phase or Elimination mode) and schedule is not fixed yet because we wait how many players will sign in. Registration deadline is 2011-09-15.
3) Following scenarios should be played: Battle of the Bzura, Bocage Breakout, Hylan Valley, Partisan Uprising, Urban Warfare, Bersaglieri and the Bear, Operation Huntress, The Frozen North, War Games
4) Every game has to be a paired game and has to be finished in 60 days. Each turn should be played in 2 days. Exceptions to this rule have to be communicated in advance to the opponent or arbitrator. Any case of doubt is judged by arbitrator as well.
5) Results and important messages will be announced by the Panzerliga Homepage. It is a German Forum but the Tournament is handled in English and German.

I have yet to win a Panzer Corps multiplayer game.

Sign in and try it again.

Well... if your playing any of those maps... they are not that balanced.

Operation Huntress favor the Allies and is almost impossible to loose.
Frozen North favors the Germans.
Urban warfare slightly favors the Russians, plus I don't like any map that makes a player buy all top of the line tanks.

Might as well play first person shooter.

[Amadeus]

Good to hear about. I hope we find enough real balanced scenarios. It is the first tourny and we need experiences of course

[Amadeus]

Hi guys, small update for you all.

We have already 10 registrations for the tourny.

01 Kerensky
02 Dam
03 El Ssid
04 Longtimethebear
05 Yoki
06 KongKrog
07 Generalex
08 El Condoro
09 Battlemace
10 Rupert

For the scenarios to play I recognize the point of view from Razz above.

01 Battle of the Bzura
02 Bocage Breakout
03 Hylan Valley
04 Partisan Uprising
05 Bersaglieri and the Bear
06 War Games
-------------------------------------------
07 Operation Huntress (favor for the Allies)
08 Urban Warfare (favor for the Allies)
09 The Frozen North (favor the Germans)
10 Hunters in the Atlantic (waterbased scenario)

So this is our first Tournament and we have to figure out what is REALLY fair. At the moment I want to cancel these scenarios (07 - 10). But any suggestions about this issue are pretty welcome.

If you want balanced scenarios try paired games - you play from both sides and can generate a score for the combined match guaranteeing a fair match.

[Amadeus]

Hi Iain,

we will do that as a must. I don't believe that the scenarios would be a problem.

btw. 12 players have already signed in! Still welcome to new players...

I think we can start around the 15th of September as we supposed to.

[Amadeus]

Our Tournament has just begun. All registered players please watch your email account. Any questions please email to me. Have fun...
