Field of Glory II Grand League (Reworked/edited , Apply here)

[lapdog666]

• Plan
  This week i ll be doing what is necessary to see if we can get at least 12 players to open the league which would last forever, or at least until the Anti Christ arrives
  So bear in mind that the league is NOT active yet. expect it to be up and running early mid april
  Season 1 : 2019 , Season 2: 2020

• Rules :
  
  • 1) Very Large battles only
    2) Game played: Field of glory (including ANY dlc and including Table top mod)
    3) Huge eternal thread where battle results will be posted (check bellow for more info). A thread for disputes and Suggestions (one thread)
    4)ARMY LISTS : no limitations except that you cannot play against the same faction and or same army list
    5) FREEdom to issue challenges and accept them. That means you can play 100 battles a day or 1 battle a day/ Why i think this would work is because its not a tournament and people will accept only battles they want to play , they have their own pace, you have your own pace and preferences , everyone happy
    6) Map Rules : Open,Very Large, open battle (only armies of same time period (filter on) allowed)
    7) if you cant do at least a turn per day or a turn per two days ,surrender the battle , Unless your opponent allows you to be inactive (note: regular ending of stalled games is allowed )
  • 8 ) When you issue a Grand League challenge you need to specify that in the game description by writing : GRAND LEAGUE BATTLE and protect he game by putting the password : 777 (thats three sevens)

It seems that there exists Fog 2 Digital league which is not a tournament

i m still looking into it but it seems that only 9 matches are played each season correct me if i m wrong

if thats the case then a league like this (Grand league) would offer something different : a constant flow of games from every era and flexibility in a sense that everyone plays as much as they can or want to

What is it, then?

Yes, 9 matches for each section a player enters. Players may enter 4 sections so that would give 36 matches in a season.

how long does the season last? is it like a month or longer

and is the whole year covered, or there are breaks in between seasons

The season lasts for 10 weeks and there are 3 tournaments each year, starting on February 1st, June 1st and October 1st. There is also an annual KO Tournament I run, starting April 1st (finishing June 23rd). Recruitment for that has just opened.

i see. so thats a maximum of 36 medium sized battles within 2.5 months . (assuming i have other dlcs)

problem is i played about 45-50 games (casual non tournament/league) in last 1.5 to 2 weeks , half of them very large battles and i m not even going full speed. i like the already established infrastructure and all but the tempo of those leagues and tournaments is just too slow for me. also i need to play armies that i might not like , because 4 eras exist

Sounds interesting.

6) No Dlc mixing is a bit too strict. And too lax, because it would allow some matches where time period doesn´t overlap.

I suggest "only armies of same time period (filter on)" instead.

I'd take part in this

I don't like the points system you have suggested, as it would punish losing more than non-participation. The points should be:

Win: 5
Draw:3
Lose: 1


Greater points for a win would encourage players to take chances and remove benefits of camping on one side of the battle and refusing to take the fight to the enemy. Awarding a point for losing would separate total newbs from people who are familiar with the system and know how to complete a game.

Also, some might rather avoid a scheduled battle, as there would be a risk of losing and having points deducted from their total. (People might dodge skilled players, or simply wish to sit on their accumulated advantage in points.) By adding points for losing, one can only win, even though it is only one point.
