What tournament would you most like to see someone organize, that isn't being offered now?

And after going to about 5 or 6 wargaming conventions a year for a long time now I'd would think that SECURITY MINISTER CRITTER 1's suggestion might constitute a war crime of some sort.

@Pictors Studio

I remember an Empire tournament back in the day. It was at a convention in Nebraska in the 80s. We had enough entries for me to play and beat (as a Frenchman) and Austrian, Russian and French(!) force. I don't recall the limitations. Something like 200 infantry and 40 cavalry castings per side? It was never repeated.

Check your 6.

MajorB03 Mar 2011 8:18 a.m. PST

There is no need for tournaments. However, a segment of the hobby definitely want them.

TodCreasey03 Mar 2011 8:30 a.m. PST

Lasalle. I also like DBM and FOW for tourneys but that is under control already.

aecurtis Fezian03 Mar 2011 9:23 a.m. PST

Any tournament that you can organize on a cruise ship that is a target for Somali pirates. Or icebergs.

The Sword and the Flame. There was a points list published some where.

John the OFM03 Mar 2011 9:19 p.m. PST

I actually played in a Sword and the Flame tournament about 6 months after the first ed came out. There were 10 British player, and me, the lone Zulu player. They had 20 figures each, I had 40! Woo hoo!

Not a very advanced tournament. The GM put us all on the table and let us loose. I forget how I did. grin

highlandcatfrog03 Mar 2011 10:26 p.m. PST

I don't feel a need for any tournaments.

Waco Joe04 Mar 2011 3:51 p.m. PST

Gladiators. Everyone gets one to start, matches periodically throughout the day. Last man standing wins.
