Download holkann’s module for battlemap under the anniversary edition forum…then go to the global 1940 forum and download sgt. wonko’s & tmtm’s module. You may need 7zip to unzip the files for the global module.

We are starting no matter what, I just need to put the brackets together with what we have.

well i cant edit my last post  :? so, thanks for helping me commander jennifer and Ol’ Blood&Guts.

[Jennifer]

I am locking enrollment on Saturday to give myself time to put the brackets together and get situated.

There are two slots left.  It would be great, for mathematical reasons, if they were filled.

A question just hit me : Will we have a banner for the AAG40 Tournament?

[Jennifer]

I can ask Djensen if we can have one, no promises though.

[BigBadBruce]

Please, it would be cool. Specially since it’s AAG40 (most Epic A&A game) and it’s the first Tournament.

Just got a PM from JWW he’ll take the last spot as a rookie.

Unless we have any last minute applications, it looks like our 32 player tournament is complete.

[Axisplaya]

This will be my 1st AA tournament. I got a question regarding bids.

Is there only 1 round of bidding or do we get to bid until we reach a point when a player doesn’t want to bid anymore ?

Example:
I bid for Axis 9 IPC, my oponent bid 7. Is he going to play Axis with 7 IPC to spend or if i’m not happy with this result, can i now bid let’s say 3 ?

[BigBadBruce]

Each tournament has its way… but Jennifer stated it in first post of this thread :

Bidding will be done as a silent Auction.  Both players will Private Message Commander Jennifer with the bid locations they would like and I will notify them who won and what the winning bid was.
*  Please send the information as thus:
** Player A vs. Player B Global 1940 Tournament - Header
** I bid XX IPC, I want X-Units here and Y-ships there
Brackets will be assigned by random die roll.  As this is the first year of the Global 1940 tournament, there are no last years winners to pair up. 
Edit:  In any game in which one of you is facing me, bids will be sent to Darth Maximus instead of myself.

[Axisplaya]

Had already read that.

It’s probably very well stated in Jennifer’s post, but since english is not my 1st language, i just want to be 100 % sure.

So, is there only 1 round of bidding or not ?

Also, what happens when 2 players make the same bid ? I guess we go to a 2nd round of bidding, but what happen then if both players continue to make the same bid ? Does it just end when one player finally gives up or is there a limit in the number of rounds of bidding ?

[Yoshi]

Organizers will confirm, but it’s one turn bid, roll for side in case of equal bid

Yoshi, who hesitated to play this one as a rookie too

[Axisplaya]

thanks.
