4.    The umpire will not play in the competition.

5.    Which player plays which player in each round will be determined randomly (by pulling names from a hat probably).

6.    There is no specific prize for winning or doing well in this tournament.  It does however give the excuse to brag openly about how well you have done/are doing on the Blitz CM Message Board. (chuckle).

7.    All battles should be played TCP/IP.

7a.   Turn time parameters are as follows:
        -    5 Minute set up time
        -    3 minutes per turn.

8.    Each round is to be played within a 3 week period.

9.    At the conclusion of the battle each player should send a screen print of the final victory screen to the umpire.

10.    The German player always sets the game up.  Before doing so, however, he needs to E-Mail his Soviet opponent and seek from him his preference for the type of Division he wants, and the quality of the troops.
 

FINALLY

11.    All games count at Blitzkrieg ladder games.  Players should report the games in the normal way.

12.    The objective of these rules is to provide a formal structure within which to run the tournament.  They may be subject to revision
 from time to time should the need arise.

13..    Cheating and poor gamesmanship of any kind are to be deplored, and the umpire will take a very dim view of such activity.

14.    Have fun; after all, that's what a Combat Mission tournament is all about.

         Enjoy
