That was the point, I morbidly considered allowing tier 5 arty as well

If it was tier 6 arty, that would have been morbid, lol.

I wanted to do a tier 8 arty only tourney on Himmelsdorf.... then the Batchat 155 came and killed my dreams

I have the impression that this new tourney is 5< people per team, isn't it?

Challenges are always 5v5.

will premium rounds be allowed?

 Seraph702, on Jul 04 2012 - 16:18, said:

Of course, there's not a single competition or battle that gold rounds aren't allowed in. Where would you even get the idea of this being the case? There is literally no past precedent.

It is generally accepted that is the method that WG uses to recoup costs for running these type of events. Between the actual man hours spent organizing these and gold given out in prize money WG would have little incentive to run events like this at all without gold ammo.

I am looking to try out the tournament my team is A O D
please join me

Seems that 1/64 round is scheduled and not the 1/128 round.

Good day, sirs.

It has come to our attention that, following the posting of the tournament schedule, our team name has been altered. There must be some sort of misunderstanding. Our team is now known as [FORGE] Region. This name makes no sense. Our team takes great pride in the territory that we hold on the map, and decided to name ourselves after a Belarusian province that was a recent acquisition (see here: http://worldoftanks....center_on=BY_06). Therefore, we would appreciate it if our name was reverted to the correct appellative: [FORGE] Brest Region.

It's also worthwhile to note that said region is part of the home of WG. Please, is this why it was censored? Are we not allowed to show our support for the WG motherland? http://en.wikipedia....ki/Brest_Region
