Main Tournament

Overview

The Main Tournament is a 6 round, swiss style, tournament. 

The Tournament Rules can be found here

There is an overall theme for the tournament, and that is Operation Market Garden. This way we limit the things you need to carry, while we explore the different situations and battles that happened during Market Garden 80 years ago.

Please note that all scenarios may be subject to changes until the round starts.

All scenarios are downloadable as a low resolution Arnhem ASL Preview Copy.

Round Director: MMP and Andreas Carlsson
Theme: Operation Market Garden
Scenarios:
• MMP Arnhem Scenario Pack
CAW9 Stiff Resistance
ASL189 Devil’s Hill

This round contains a new scenario pack from MMP containing four scenarios that will be available when the round starts.

When you bid for scenarios in this round the MMP scenario pack is handled as one scenario.  Ie, if you don’t like surprise scenarios you have the option to delete the scenario pack as a whole.

If you determine the scenario pack as the one to play, you do a separate determination procedure based on the ones in the pack. Since there are four scenarios in the pack the bidding is a little bit different; 

Both players still delete one, and rank the other three from 1 to 3. There is a chance that scenarios have the same rank. If that happens, determine the scenario that will be played randomly.
