Bored with waiting? Come join our TCP Campaign!

[GreenAsJade]

Over at We Band Of Brothers Ardem has just set up

a CM Campaign, with the intention of it moving along quickly based on TCP play.

There's a stratetic level war going on, with anyone (while positions are open) able to take the role of "commander" and direct battalions on the strategic map.

The strategic game is managed by Ardem using TOAW for the FOW mechanics.

When battles are joined they are posted and anyone can play them (TCP). The result of their game determines the outcome of that battle.

The first games are underway... come and join the fun.

Actually there are quite a few tournaments and campaigns being played at the BoB (Band of Brothers) site. And all are very unique in their way.

The joining process seems to be able to weed the serious players from the not so serious which leads to a lot of great games with some talented opponents from all over the globe.

Right now I’m playing on a “Random” tournament where most, not all, catagories are chosen at random. Here players are scored individually.

A brief description of “Muso57's Radically Random Tourney”

“Once upon a time, in a world of virtual WWII combat, an mighty BoBer bigmac644 started a tourney where everything was random. It was a legend in it’s own lunchtime, bigger than Ben Hur, like the man himself. I didn’t like everything being random so I came up with a radical idea of having a random tourney with a few set params. It ended up being representative of a simultaneous intel gathering probe/securing operation by both sides towards the same central spot on the map using a reinforced company with limited vehicular support. So here it is, folks, Muso57’s Radically Random Tourney!!”

Another I’m in, “Codeword Dortmond” is a team based tournament:

This is the introduction from Nelson1812’s request for players

OPERATION BARBAROSSA

22ND JUNE 1941

CODEWORD DORTMUND

Until the 30th May when regimental commanders received their attack orders, the German troops considered there presents as a bluff or a demonstration against the USSR, prior to the invasion of Great Britain.

However, at 1300hrs, 21st June 1941 Army Group North received the codeword “Dusseldorf”, the invasion of the USSR would precede at 0345hrs on 22nd June with an artillery barrage.

Army Group North advised all its units with there own codeword “Dortmund” of the forthcoming surprise attack.

After referring to Leningrad as the ultimate objective of the operations… Field-marshal Leeb highlighted the first intermediate object of the Panzergruppe. That was the River Dvina 185 miles from the start of the attack.

By June 26: Army Group North had captured the town of Daugavpils and secured the Dvina river-crossings.

Codeword “Dortmund” will be a mini CMBB campaign consisting of 4 games covering the journey from the start of Barbarossa, 22nd June until the 26th June. As in Sealion, each game will result in the number of miles; Army Group North can proceed forward. The objective is to match or better Army Group North, the soviets is to push back the invaders from whence they came… or even further.

So if your looking to keep your hand in CM while waiting for new modules to come out I highly recommend the Band of Brothers.
