Now you say "we find it's best to keep the rules "as is" once posted". OK well I don't know what the rules are until you post them. So how could any player feedback possibly have any effect other than on future events?

It's absolutely effective! I'll be sure to steer clear of a similar set up in the future, based on the feedback provided. Again, I'm sorry Skirmish 3 is just short.  

In the past, when we've made changes, teams are equally upset for simply changing the rule-set. This shows me that we can't expect all teams to regularly check these, or the tournament pages, for updates. Lord_Farquad and I ultimately felt it's best to leave Skirmish 3 as is.

Appreciate the reply Captain_Judo. Also my last statement was focused more towards the January Challenge, I really like Skirmishes 1-3 so far. Apologies for the confusion and posting in the wrong thread

I like that this skirmish is heavies only. I like skirmishes that have rules sets that just never happen in any other format like regular battles and TCs. I also think outside the most hard core teams you will see a variety of tanks in this skirmish because of the level. Hard to get to a specific tier 7 tank if don't have at least the tier 6 already. This is different than skirmish 2 when only at tier 3 everyone could have a luchs.

My suggest to avoid having teams all comprised so similar and the 80% domination of a single tank in skirmishes is to always add a rule for the max number of any one tank. 3 would be a good number for most 7 tank battles so that never have over half the team in same tank.

Why did the winning teams get placed on the wrong sides?  SIMP should be on the top.

Ah, in the Tournament Sheet things are correct.  I normally never look there.  But in the Battle Schedule the teams were placed in the wrong spots which has never happened before so I thought people were going to get the wrong opponents.  Never mind! *grin*

A belated congratulatory message. Nevertheless, Skirmish 3 is in the books!
