Hi
      Anyone interested can reply here or message me. We are having a 1 day Global 40 tournament by teams. The plan is for a team anywhere from 2 to 5 guys plays 2 games simultaneously and at the end we count total points scored. There is a set bid of 33 for allies. It is based on scoring points not victory on one side. However you do get extra points if you win on a side. We also have open gaming usually the Anniversary or Revised second edition. This is for fun. I seem to have lost some contact numbers so if previous players read this please reply.
    So far we have about 14 to 15 people coming as we had 4 recent cancels. So we have space as not all do the tournament.
          We play at a Church in Whitestone Queens, NY. Doors open about 940, we hope to start play before 1030am and play until we finish. We are planning to keep the global games moving and play 9 rounds by 7pm or so. We order lunch in. We serve soda, snacks and ask for 10 dollars for the church. We have a guy who sells games

Finally posting after lurking for almost a decade now.  Hi everyone.

There’s going to be a Revised (2004 Edition) tournament at the WBC tournament this year (It’s an annual boardgaming/wargaming tournament/convention.  They typically play Avalon Hill and GMT games.).

The tournament is going to be from Friday, July 21 (Preliminaries) until Saturday, July 22 (Semifinals/Finals).  The convention itself is continuing for the rest of the week (July 22-30).
The format uses a unique ruleset to make the game playable in a limited amount of time.  I can post the rules if you’re interested.

Link(s) to Event Website:
boardgamers.org (Can’t actually post links but you get the idea.  A search of “World Boardgaming Championships” will take you to the page as well)

Ruleset:
@WBC:

Time Limit: 4:30 hrs Standard Bidding.

Adjudication System-
The determination of who wins a tournament game will be based upon the control of Victory Territories (VTs). The Victory City method of determining a winner will NOT be used. Each side controls 12 Victory Territories at the beginning of the game. The Victory Territories are listed below.

AXIS POWERS
GERMANY
Germany
Western Europe
Southern Europe
Eastern Europe
Ukraine SSR
Norway

JAPAN
Japan
Manchuria
French Indochina
Philippine Islands
East Indies
Borneo

ALLIED POWERS
USSR
Russia
Caucasus
Archangel
Novosibirsk

UK
United Kingdom
India
Anglo-Egypt
Australia

USA
Eastern US
Western US
Hawaiian Islands
Sinkiang

If a player holds 18 (or more) VTs for a full round of game play (From the end of a country’s turn to the beginning of that same country’s next turn.), then that player automatically wins the game.

In the event of a VT tie at the end of the game, whichever side increased its IPC total is the winner. If the game is still tied after reviewing the IPC totals, then the GM will make a determination of the winner based upon the game situation at the time the game ended.

If a player chooses to concede a game before it has reached the 18 VT automatic win threshold or the game time limit (4.5 hrs), a default score of 19 VTs and +30 IPCs will be awarded to the winner.

I don’t know the rules for sending email addresses out, so I’d have to PM it to anyone who’s interested.

Greetings AA Gamers,

At this time, I have started to update the Swamp with results and pics from last weeks Spring Gathering.  There will be more coming, but just wanted to get something out for you guys to enjoy… Again, thanks to everyone that came out and made it this the great event it has become and to the sponsors and supporters.  You guys are awesome!

http://www.headlesshorseman2.com/id11.html

Also, I have added a new link and it basically revolves around G40 and the information we gathered from both games at the SGX.  I am going to start including this information so that we can make a good and informed decision on how to proceed with FTF tournament games at Origins and GEN CON and the victory conditions, game rules (Alpha +3), etc.

Any questions or if you have any problems opening the site, let me know.

And don’t forget, Origins is just a month away:  May 31-June3, so don’t delay in registering…

Peace,

The Fourth Annual World at War Tournament will begin on Wednesday, March 29, 2006. To sign up, please post on this thread. Also, please make sure that your e-mail address in the AAWC database is current.

Rules:

Games will be played under the Utah ruleset (normal rated-game rules determine who bids first), and each round is single-elimination.

If a game cannot be completed by the deadline for that round, then the SOLE criterion for advancement will be availability to play. This determination will be made solely from the times that a player offers to play on the tournament Rescheduling Board, so you must communicate with your opponent there. In determining who will advance, I will consider only information posted on the scheduling thread, so if there are scheduling problems, please describe them on the thread.

All unit-locked games must be played out.

Unfinished games will be arbitrated only if both players agree.

Players may post matches in the Utah DB if they both agree.

The tournament will be limited to a maximum of 64 players. (First come, first serve.)

Any disputes about which dice server to use will be resolved by the tournament director.

if you would like to see how you stack up against someone from another  club give this a  try and join in the fun at http://www.axisandalliesworldclub.com/
