I am a noob when it comes to blitzing!

Hmmm, why is TNN so popular? 4 first picks on them. And the second most favorable nation being Sauro with two primary and two secondary picks.

Because super early TNN raiding is a terrifying prospect in a duel, I would guess.

They can take provinces so easily with so little investment and unlike in a bigger MP they won't subsequently get gangbanged.
I mod for free and fun. But if you want to tip me for work I've done, you can do so through PayPal to rabbitoflegend@gmail.com

Please keep in mind, the first two rounds are non elimination POOL rounds.

Those who go 2-0 and 1-1 will continue onto the single elimination rounds.

Point taken. Though are they so much better then their stealthy EA counterparts, Van and Helheim?
Ri certainly are much better than Hangradrott and Vanadrott, with better buff paths, slightly better stats and a magic weapon, but the other two have better troops and a forge bonus. I didn't think TNN would be so much more popular.

Never played or faced TNN early on, but they seem a bit one trick pony, especially in blitzes.

Don't worry GFSnl, I can afford to let you win. ;)

I will sponsor a prize. I will make a custom steel and leather spangenhelm for the victor. I don't have one to show right now since they've all gone to new homes. But here is a sample.

Wikipedia Spangenhelm

I will use leather and steel since that's lighter. It's just a costume helm. I use leather for the curved main plates. Looks good. And it can have fur trim.

Damn, that's some prize we've got now!
50$ + 10$ if it's easy + stupid space jellyfish made of sandwiches + spangehelm

Anyone care to throw in some mammoth tusks? Perhaps a signed copy of Dominions by Gandalf Parker?

We already have a helm. I hope someone awards a trident.

The thing is, if you win the helm and trident, next year, when this happens again, you HAVE to DROP EVERYTHING and tournament again.

You have my old nation picks listed. If you recall, i sent another PM with updated choices after i changed my mind. I also spoke to you on ICQ with my nation picks. You said, "mictlan should be a good choice". I hope this isn't a problem.

I do remember that. You're correct, I missed the update.

I will update in 30ish and notify your opponent.

Also Bullock, sorry about the name mixup!

OP Updated with BT's bracket selection, and some more info.

-->>It is probably best to attempt to PM your partner to schedule matches <<--

And ideally both players would log onto IRC together. Instructions in OP (at the bottom), if you need help PM me.

BlanketThief is officially admining the tourney at this point, but I will still help. If you are having trouble scheduling your match please let us know!

Thanks.

It's popped up a couple of times, here's a link to a .rar containing the mod if you happen to have issues downloading/installing it.
