As for new tourneys - random challange sounds as really good thing and I certainly will participate. Only - is it necessary to split in into two sub-subtourneys? May be bracket tourney will be enough?

I like archies Idea....but think that there shouldnt be any hives or conservatories...coz this might turn the tournie to a "luck" tournie.....

Attlia Raven made 2 threads asking for players advice on what they wanted to see in Clans, you should have spoken up. Raven is open for ideas for clans just let her know what you players would like to see.

small maps tourney - utopia?

Hi all!

If we are discussing here ALL possible ideas for future tournaments in toh, i can present one really new, too.

How about SMALL maps tourney?

I know common opinion about small maps - no challenge, too quick, toh don't accept them in general, etc., etc.


However I still would like to propose tournament with rules something like this:

1.Tourney could be run not as a permanent one, but only once (kind of a refreshing change)

2.Playing is organized in bracket-style

3.Each round goes till TWO wins (means – max 3 games/per round)

4.No random maps, for every round there will be new 3 maps


My points, why such a thing could be good:
1.I don’t doubt that there are many people who play in toh for almost 4 years. As toh don’t allow using small maps, for them this tourney will be something how to change the usual everyday routine

2.For newbies - small maps requires a bit different approach + element of Lady Luck is higher, so they will have a better chance to beat out some of the veterans

3.Small maps could be played sufficiently quickly – no big waste of time.

4.Why two wins/per round? Firstly – to reduce element of major misfortune for strong players. Secondly – to add a little bit of action (if u lose one game, usually there is a physiological necessity for vengeance)  


As for system of playing, there is an alternative to bracket style, too. Since small maps plays quickly, it would be possible to play a tourney “everyone with everyone”.

As for organization – I would volunteer for it, but I’m just a poor computer-user without any knowledge in webpage making or such things. So only thing I can offer from my side, is to find (or to help find) best suited maps for this tourney. If there will be more than 16 players for bracket style, then till final rounds this will take 15 maps.

So, what others think – small maps are total sux, or they deserve one little chance? will anybody feels like ready for this tourney?

First of all max maps wouldnt be 15 if 16 players if you want 2wins to go through - it would take between 30-45.

And although i am not playing i hardly see this as the activity increaser tourney TOH/MAH could use right now (nor do i see LOTR tourney as it).

Hmmm I can never make my mind up when it comes to choosing tourney on bracketd or addict.

What I don't like about addicts is that the player with the most free time wins the tourney.

What I don't like about bracketed is that an average player never has a shot to get anywhere.

What i would like to propose is a split bracketed tourney in which footman and squire play eachother and barons and legionnaires play amongst themselves.

Ok peeps .. feedback please.

Edit: and thise few footman that belong in barons or higher class (but just haven;t played much) should play in the class they belong in (u know who u are . the dude with dragons in there records)

there are tournies like call to power (footmen only) that has been used earlier to raise activity, but to kick of one of those tournies now would maybe be alittle to soon. Wait 4-5 weeks so the good players gets the chance to advance to top.

Attila, did you actually go look at the posted rules page? If you had you would be able to see that they are not exactly like the old HK Clans (which were extremely popular even if YOU didn't like them, btw). There are some elements that have been taken from both the old HK Clans (mainly the use of gold) and from the old ToH Clans along with some new elements . NO where do you see anywhere on the rules page anything about ANY kind of creature bonus! And YES artifacts are mentioned, but artifacts were part of the old ToH Clans as well and if you will actually READ what is written you will notice that it mentions there use in Clan WARS and only by a designated player. NOT by everyone in every game. The main reason I am using a gold system for the purchase of artifacts and clan upgrades (which MAY have a creature bonus, but once again similar to ToH Clans) is so that the team points can be used in the Blood Pool. The purpose of the Blood Pool is to encourage the completion of Clan Wars because if you forfeit games and lose you not only lose the points for the individual game, but you lose the points from the Blood Pool (which were originally deducted from your points). As well as being penalized for non completion of games. I encourage you to reread the rules page that is posted and what I have written here, maybe it will help a clearer picture of what they may be like to appear for you.

hi raven sorry i didnt read rules.

I think clan sounds good but i think upgrades seem to cheap for the amount of gold and that you get. i think maybe 2 oe 3 gold for win and 5 points and like -1 gold and -1 point for loss. but other than that it sounds good.
