Valor & Victory Tournament Update

Post by Edmon »

Update
If you were having an issue signing up to the Valor & Victory: Stalingrad tournament, this issue has now been resolved and you should now be able to sign up correctly. Signups still close on April 15th.

Original Announcement:
The assault of Stalingrad has begun! Fight to attack or defend Stalingrad in the following tournament rounds:
In this tournament you will challenge other players in three different scenarios:


Round 1 - The German Assault Begins - 6 game turns

The German Assault on Stalingrad begins with a two-proged drive on the center and southern district of the city. Elements of the 14th Panzer Division push into what's left of the Yelshanka Suburbs, resisted by elements of the 593rd Rifle Regiment, 131st Rifle Division.


Round 2 - The Railway Station - 6 game turns

As the German assault continues, extra reserves are committed to the fight, pushed into the gigantic Stalingrad No1 Rail Station. Here the remnants of the 1st Battalion / 42nd Guards Rifle Regiment trade blows with intermingled grenadier platoons of the German 71st Infantry Division and tanks of the 24th Panzer Division.


Round 3 - Ludynikov's Island - 6 game turns

The Germans have broken the last slivers of Russian defense into smaller pockets. One of these is Ludnynikov's Island. Snow blankets the city's ruins. Here we see part of the southern arm of the assault on the Island pitting "Pionier" Battalion 50 and units of Infantry Regiment 576 against remnants of 650th Rifle Regiment, 138th Rifle Division.


Please note, the new Stalingrad DLC is required to play in this tournament.

To enter, go to the tournament page and sign up by clicking HERE.

The tournament follows Swiss Tournament rules: you can find the full list of rules by clicking HERE.

The first round will commence on Friday, April 15th, 2022 at 12:00 am UTC. No further entries can be accepted after the tournament has begun.

The Tournament will last 3 rounds, each lasting 17 days. Games are paired, so each match-up will be played both ways.

All you need to do is sign up. You will be notified by mail of when the tournament is starting and when it will be time to play your turns.
