--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Welcome all KaM Remake players! We have the honor to announce the first multiplayer event for teams, called "powah tournament", which (if everything goes well) will be the first part of a bigger series called "powah tour" (maybe with prices in future!). The idea was born during beta tests, to give possibility for players to choose the best team from our community. As 2-2 games are based on good relationships and tune, we have hopes that the tournament will take place in a friendly and good atmosphere.

Format
- it’s a 2-2 team tournament
- the limit for participant teams is 24 (in case of huge interest the limit can be set higher).
- ladder with loser bracket (depends on the amount of teams – 4 or 5 rounds)
- maps will be chosen from a maps pool by an elimination system
- locations will be chosen by locations choosing system

following rounds will be played in best of 1 (team wins 1 game goes to the next round):
- all games in winner bracket except semi-finals and final
- all games in loser bracket
following rounds will be played in best of 3 (team wins 2 games goes to the next round):
- semi-finals and final in winner bracket

Maps pool:
- Across the Desert - 60pt
- Border Rivers 4p - 55pt
- Golden Cliffs - 60pt
- Warfare in the Wilderness - 60pt
- Wilderness - 60pt

Requirements for competitors
- KaM Remake r3392
- account on knightsandmerchants.net/forum
- not required, but handy if you have Skype
- stable internet connection (ping up to 900)
- every additional thing that organizers ask you for
- you must play bo1 match in 5 days and bo3 match in 7 days

(about link below: sign up you and your friend only once – if you sign your team, your friend doesn’t have to do the same, cause you will be twice on our list)

Registration for the tournament takes place only by using the following form:
http://www.kamremake.com/competition/

Signing up means that you agree with all tournament terms.

Tournament rules
- 5 days to play bo1 match and 7 days to play bo3 match
- each team will have an assigned number in order of registration
- contact between players will mostly proceed by private messages on forum
- teams will decide about the exact date of the games
- every problem should be reported and then decided by a judge!

Posting results
- match results have to be posted by the winning team
- match results should be posted in the special topic called “powah tournament 2v2: results
- to confirm a victory the winning team have to add one screenshots with statistics and one replay from each game (remember: you have to destroy enemies barracks, storehouses and schools for achieve victory!)

Maps rules:
Across the Desert - 60pt:
- locations choosing system – loc 3 is banned (don’t choose loc 3)
Border Rivers 4p - 55pt
- locations choosing system (or if both teams agree then all players set random locations)
Golden Cliffs - 60pt
- locations choosing system
Warfare in the Wilderness - 60pt
- team with lower registration number picking locations 1 and 2
Wilderness - 60pt
- locations choosing system (or if both teams agree then all players set random locations)

The maps elimination system consist in each team eliminate one map from the available maps pool by starting with the team with the lower registration number. In each next game of the match players will make a new elimination, but without the map played before. Let’s look at an example:
team 1 - we won’t play Across the Desert
team 2 - we won’t play Border Rivers 4p
team 1 - we won’t play Golden Cliffs
team 2 - we won’t play Warfare in the Wilderness
So the map which is left is Wilderness!
If it’s bo3 the players in the next game will repeat this procedure but without the map which was played yet – Wilderness in this example (in third game teams will start eliminations with 3 maps only).

Locations choosing system consist in players choosing locations, starting from player of team, which was second in the map elimination system. For example, if team 1 started eliminating maps, then team 2 starting choosing locs:
Chosen map is Wilderness
team 2 – we will play loc 1
team 1 – we will play loc 3
team 2 – we will play loc 2
team 1 – we will play loc 4

Gameplay rules
- you are not allowed to scout enemy bases with laborers during peace time
- you are not allowed to build towers if an enemy building will be in its range
- you have to set your autosave on
- manual save game is not allowed
- scouting from your base to your allies base with laborers is allowed
- if someone losing connection all players have to wait at least 2 minutes in hope for reconnect

- if someone left the game, that players' team will lose the game (you can appeal to a judge if for example an error has occurred)

well I wanna say good luck, cause it is very difficult to organize such tournaments, and all tournaments in economy games were failed. Last such try (Christmas tournament) were canceled, and there was no matches in team division. I hope this tournament will end with good results.

Re: powah tournament 2v2

I'm not sure if I'll take part. I don't feel the urge to prove myself at all. I do not care for rankings and this 'elite' stuff, which seems what this tournament is based on. Surely I could take part for fun, but I doubt I'll have enough time to play all these economy games.
And I'm probably not good enough anyway. Sometimes I play on an acceptable level, sometimes I don't. I think you'll need to play always good to stand a chance in a tournament like this. I don't want to be a drag on my ally. :P

Re: powah tournament 2v2

Thanks you Lord Stronghold, we tried to teach from the past. :)
Btw. Will you sign up? :P

The Dark Lord - oh, treat this tournament as a good time in true rivalry spirit! Your playing level is not important, and everyone could have bad day - even bests. There is really not many very very very good players, so level will be mostly equal. Think about it - fun > real competition. :)

"Will you sign up?"

It should be great, but I should write f##n dissertation and other stuff as the aspirant, and my mate of The Hole Hellfire team - Andreus - also cannot play(( So Russian Army will be presented by 1 team - cruel economy master ImmortalFen and the real battle legend Kirelareus :wink:

Exactly my point. I don't find it fun when, after peace time ends, the enemy has so many troops that I lose within 15 minutes. ;)

yes, that is a main manner of playing in KaM remake. Such strategy fails in origin KaM games, especially with no peace time (we had agreements about such thing, cause there was no pt function in origin kam)

I think in origin KaM it won't fails, rush is strategy for every RTS game. Only in unbalanced or failed one it won't work. :) In origin KaM it just will works in diffrent way than in Remake at least.

7 signed teams! :D

I wouldn't mind having The Dark Lord in my team at all. I respect this guy so much with doing a lot for the community, especially in maps, that I wouldn't mind if he plays some bad games in my team. The only thing he has to do is let go of the color black :P.

I sign up for this tournament to see if there really are good players at my level out here. Sorry for my ego, but I never played against Florek nor Mulberry.

I'd be even more excited about a 1v1 tournament as I don't want to depend on a teammate. I think 1v1 is where real skill matters.

"I think in origin KaM it won't fails, rush is strategy for every RTS game. Only in unbalanced or failed one it won't work. In origin KaM it just will works in diffrent way than in Remake at least."

that was a main difference between KaM and rts games like AoE of C&C. Many war-gamers, who hates "rts-arcads" like those games, cannot say the same about Knights and Merchants. But 1 thing is absolutely true - if you will make Iron before food - you will die of hunger. That is why many guys, who played in origin KaM with agreement of peace time, selected 1 h 30 mins (it was in terms of German "point league"). Ofc if you have a huge economy you can make a large army, but if you should make it in harm of rest economy (food producing, or another resorts) - it will broke your game, and you will not correct it by market though. That is a main difference between KaMremake and origin KaM. Another important difference - building of town: you should make double or thriple road in many places, or you will have permanent stocks. However, I think that Remake is interesting too and I think that another changes for it are not necessary.

"Sorry for my ego, but I never played against Florek nor Mulberry."

Play with them and your ego will fall down)

"I'd be even more excited about a 1v1 tournament as I don't want to depend on a teammate. I think 1v1 is where real skill matters."

aaaaa!!! the christmas tournament!)) However I hope that such tournament will be in winter, not in summer, cause I will be out of my city to often(
