Welcome to the league of Team Battles!
Find an ally, fight the enemy, earn points to climb higher up the table!
Winner is the person on top at the end of the "season".
All factions are available, however there is a new ruleset being used and the factions are split into categories.
The categories are:-
Romans- Julii, Brutii, Scipii, S.P.Q.R
Hellenic- Greek City States, Macedon, Carthage, Thrace
Chariots- Egypt, Seleucid, Brittannia, Pontus
Barbarian- Gaul, Dacia, Germania, Spain
Eastern- Scythia, Armenia, Parthia, Numidia
Each team can only use one faction from a category, so if i pick a Hellenic faction my ally cant.
Factions are not fixed, so if you use Roman in one battle you dont have to stay with them for every game you play.
All battles are to be played on Grassy Flatlands.

Anybody who breaks rules will have there team removed from the tourney, and battle they broke rules in will be classed as a draw.
All teams are placed in a table, and points are awarded for battles won.
Heroic Victories earn your team 3 points
Clear Victories earn your team 2 points
Average Victories earn your team 1 point
Close Victories are classed as a draw, with neither team getting points.
Barbarian Factions earn 1 extra point for each scenario, so a heroic with a barbarian earns 4 points and so on. However close victories with a barbarian faction within a team still count as a draw with no points being awarded to either team.
Screenies have to posted for each battle. Even if both teams agree the outcome, no screenie-no points.
If a high number of teams join you will play each team once, if low number joins then a home/away system will be used and you play each team twice!
As soon as there is an appropriate number of teams, a fixtures list will be drawn up. Each battle will have a 3 day limit to be played, if one team doesnt show then the other team will get 1 point. If both teams dont show then battle is classed as a draw!
Each person can only enter within one team, all participants are welcome to post their timezones here asking for an ally.
