Have people enter, and then get a board of top rated players to judge each player, from then creating pairs that are as fair as possible. They then create the brackets. Players would work in 2-man teams in 2 on 2 games. The winner continues on, the loser goes to the loser bracket, but if you lose in there, you are out. Then the top two losing teams face off to see who gets to see the winners champion. Then the winner and loser champions face each other to see who wins there. For playing different games: games like Bulge, D-Day, and Guadal are worth the lowest points for Ws and Ls, while 1940 and Anniversary are worth more points for both winners and losers. To prevent cheating, there will be a judge at each game who will officiate, but will not punish players if they screw up, but will disqualify them if they do things like roll the dice again, or pick their tech, etc.,intentional cheating like that in which there is evidence beyond a REASONABLE doubt. Everyone should have fun, as it is a double then play for fun elimination circut. If your are knocked out of the losing bracket, you then join the other pairs(1/4 of total players at first possible chance), and play for fun, not to advance, as you are knocked out of the tournament. Where and when will the convention be held because I will try to get there if it is in the US.
What is "High Adventure"?

The perspective on this picture is a little confusing… it looks like he is bayonetting the guy with his Thompson.

What else could you possibly expect from “High Adventure”. :P

The more and more I read online…
“HIGH Adventure” just seems to imply an activitiy, full of explosive excitement, mostly in reference to a person or group of persons overcoming significant challenge/opposition, like mother nature, science, evil monsters, or the mettle of other men and minds.
To which I can say, I have to agree is true.
We’ve all probably cheered as loud in original, when a transport has sunk an enemy battleship, or it was tank on fighter and you took Berlin/Moscow. Many games for all of you I’m sure, have ended in explosive catastrophe, or epic victory, with emotions high, and every eye in the room on the last slow motion die roll.
After all, that’s why we’re all here isn’t it?
Okay so I describe “high adventure” as the stuff of pulp novels, you say I’m wrong and then provide the cover of pulp novel well pulp styled magazine to prove you are right? :?

I also have to say…
HIGH Adventure seems to imply, a “Journey into the unknown” where unexpected challenge awaits. For Men who Dare! :P
Frell man. Did I not say, “a journey to a blank space on the map?” :roll:

I suppose you did lol.

It could be worse. One of the Japanese troops might have looked as if he was trying to shoot the G.I. with his samurai sword.

I think those are imperial officers from star-wars, not imperial japanese troops!

Now that you mention it… there is a striking resemblence that I have never noticed before.

It’s no coincidence. Lucas used all kinds of sources for his designs. If for example you watch the scenes in the movie The Enemy Below in which the crew of the American destroyer have gone to action stations, you’ll note some of them wearing historically accurate oversized helmets that look exactly like the ones worn by some of the Death Star technicians in Star Wars.
