Signing In

Greetings!

I have a three-headed hydra nesting in the bathroom of my basement, so I need to hire a hero to slay it!

Are you ready to be a powerful, honorable hero? Are you up to conquer the known world? Then this is the right tournament for you!
The League of the Ancient Heroes invites 24 brave contestants to candidate for the League. Freemiuns are invited, as long as they leave a slot open.

In order to participate, you must choose one among 8 historical characters (different users may choose identical characters - see: Characters, Traits and Home Maps) and just sign in!

Example: Hello! I'd like to sign in and my character is Alexander

Of course, to compete you must prove you're worth it, so a preliminary round will be made to select the 8 brave league competitors.

Preliminary Round

Summary: 24 players will play 8 x 3-player games in Circus Maximus map, with settings: Standard, Automatic, Sequential, Escalating, Adjacent, Foggy, No Trench, Round Limit: 30 Rounds. The players will be sorted using random.org.

To enter the league, the candidates must prove they are physically ready, so a 30 laps race will be made arround the Circvs maximvs, each contestant running in one lane. There will be 8 races and their winners are qualified to the League.

Now that the 8 valuable warriors are selected, let the League begin!

League of the Ancient Heroes

Summary: The league will consist of 18 Terminator games and 4 Quadruple games with the teams randomly selected, in a total of 22 8-player games with 30 round limit. Their will be diverse combinations of settings and the maps to be played are 6 Greco-Roman based maps: Alexander Empire, Ancient Greece, Battle of Actium, Conquer Rome, Peloponesian War and Imperium Romanum. All games will be Sequential and without Trench Warfare (see Maps and Settings for details)
A hero is not made in one day so you must prove you are the best among a set of different tests to prove you are the Hero!

Scores
In each game you will obtain a base score with the following rules:
Terminator games:
3 points per eliminated player + 5 points bonus for winning the game.
Quadruple games:
10 points for each player of the winning team

The base score will be altered according to the traits of the caracter you choose (see: Characters, Traits and Home Maps)

End of the Tournament

After 22 rounds of pure entertainment and fun the player with the higher score wins the tournament and has the chance to slay the three-headed hydra of my basement!

Characters, Traits and Home Maps

In the post above I say you are required to choose a character. Such is not needed for the preliminary round, however in the League games, each character has his own unique traits and home maps that make him gather bonus score points.

Characters:
Leonidas:
Home Map: Ancient Greece
Trait: Sharpshooter
Alexander:
Home Map: Alexander's Empire
Trait: Campaign Leader
Achiles:
Home Map: Peloponesian War
Trait: Brother-in-Arms
Julius Caesar:
Home Map: Imperium Romanum
Trait: Builder
Augustus Caesar:
Home Map: Battle of Actium
Trait: Builder
Marcus Antonius:
Home Map: Battle of Actium
Trait: Brother-in-Arms
Hannibal:
Home Map: Imperium Romanum
Trait: Campaign Leader
Attila:
Home Map: Conquer Rome
Trait: Expert Finisher

Traits:
Specific traits make you win bonus scores with specific settings:
Brother-in-Arms: +100% score in Quadruple Games.
Builder: +25% score in Flat Rate Games.
Campaign Leader: +25% score in Escalating Games.
Expert Finisher: 10 points for finishing terminator games instead of 5.
Sharpshoot: +1 point per player eliminated in terminator games.

Home maps:
The score of the player (base score+traits) is doubled when playing on his home map.

Note: You may suggest other combinations of traits and home maps associating a different character. Be creative!
