J'aurais bien participé, mais visiblement, je ne suis pas assez bon

I would have participated, but it seems I'm not good enough

I know you're a strong player, so just sent you an invite. Not sure if that will override the ELO requirement or not.

Tour 6 is open for enlistment. This time we are going to the Pacific Theater. Scenario is Bloody Ridge.

Hello Officers,

Tour 8 is open for enlistment. The scenario this time is a classic, St Vith. The Battle of the Bulge, also known as the Ardennes Offensive, was the last major German offensive campaign on the Western Front during World War II. While too ambitious for the available resources and terrain, the plan was deemed by the German High Command as having more chances of impacting the situation than throwing the same the ad-hoc divisions into the increasingly desperate Eastern front. In the Ardennes, there were only a few cross-country roads, so forces would tend to pile up at the crossroads. St. Vith was one such town.

I try to pick the best scenarios, preferably somewhat balanced. I'm open to suggestions.

I'm not sure how the tournament runs, as I am new to this one, but will presume I'll get instructions!

It's a straightforward single elimination tournament, you keep going until you lose (or are the champion). Just take note of settings, each player has 3.5 days of thinking time to finish the game. Next match starts as soon as possible (you will get a notification), so one half of the bracket can be further along than the other side.
