Yes, I am going to attempt to start this going again and once again, I'm offering some nice prizes for the winners.

1st 500,000ics
2nd 250,000ics
3rd 100,000ics

The tournament will, however, cost money to enter (I am not rich).  25,000ics will be the entry fee (I'll subsidize any new comers to VE who want to play but don't have the money).

Tournament format will be determined based on the number of players in the tourament.

Game settings (subject to change if both players agree):

Small Galaxy (unless otherwise agreed upon by the players)
HQ Victory (unless otherwise agreed upon by the players)

As an added incentive, I will even break down and play as the Imperials for a change (Almost every game I've played I play as the Rebellion and have the first 300 days down to a science).  I am rusty at the game and very rusty when it comes to Imperial strategy (of course if you want to play as the Imps I am more than willing to be the Alliance).

Entry:

I must have confirmation of your entry by Friday July 8th.  Depending on number of players and the tournament format, I might accept late entries.

Other rules:

All games will be recorded on the battlenet.


Hint:

Try reading The Art of War if you get a chance before playing me.  I follow much of that doctrine for strategy :P

"The way of war is a way of deception. When able, feign inability; when deploying troops, appear not to be. When near, appear far; when far, appear near. Lure with bait; strike with chaos. If the enemy is full, be prepared. If strong, avoid him. If he is angry, disconcert him. If he is weak, stir him to pride. If he is relaxed, harry him; if his men are harmonious, split them. Attack where he is unprepared; appear where you are unexpected. This is victory in warfare; it cannot be divulged in advance. Victory belongs to the side that scores most in the temple calculations before battle. Most spells victory; least spells defeat; none, surer defeat. I see it in this way, and the outcome is apparent." -- Sun Tzu
