__________ __________/ \__________ <__________ Turn 1 __________> \__________/ _______________________________________________________________________________ The following message was sent on Monday October 06, 1997 at 10:43 AM EDT by Jeff Hartman to all players; Round A Rules Reminders! Last Updated 30-September-97 by Bob Heeter Read this message carefully - it contains a lot of essential information! *** Critical Scenario and Rules Changes from the Practice Round *** * Starting Gold: 4200/side * Razing: On Capture only * Round A games will last for 20 turns! * New Gold Rules: The gold limit for Strongholds is now 2500. All the gold is now in strongholds; revert until you get less than 2500. We recommend reverting to get between 2400 and 2500. (The odds of getting between 2400 and 2500 are about 10%, so this takes less reverting than trying to get near 3600!) * Special Builds: The center cities all build griffins! Sack 'em for cash - or build 'em! Note - griffins defending neutral cities are strength 8 (6+2). The neutral cities are set to "active" in the tournament. * New Rule: Two Heroes! You are allowed (and expected!) to revert and get a second hero on Turn 2. *** If you want a second hero, it MUST come ONLY on Turn 2. *** The second hero can come with *any* ally you choose in *any* city you control. You may not replace any dead heroes until *both* heroes are dead. Then the regular hero-replacement rules apply. (Note that once you lose a hero you cannot have more than one hero on the map.) Ask your Moderator or Headquarters for details. The starting gold has been increased to allow the purchase of the second hero. You must report the cost of the second hero and he/she must cost at least 1000 gold. * New Rule: Limited Allies with Replacement Heroes: After Turn 2, all replacement heroes may only come with wizards, ghosts, elementals, or worms. Archons, Demons, Dragons, and Devils are not allowed with replacement heroes - you can only get them from ruins or with your Turn 2 second hero. Warlord, use thy allies wisely! :) * Holidays: The U.S. Thanksgiving Weekend in late November and the midwinter holidays (from December 20 to January 7) will be official "Tournament Holidays". Time limits will not be enforced during those periods, and players do not need to worry about using up vacation time then, although we hope the games will all continue! We expect some games to finish before Christmas, and the rest in January and February. Round B will begin in mid-January after the winter holidays end! More timeouts will be supplied to all Round A players when Round B begins. *** Prizes for Round A *** The four Warlords who write the most entertaining game history will each receive a prize from SSG. The one Warlord who writes the best individual roleplay will also receive a prize from SSG. The awarding of both prizes will be determined after the round ends by a team of moderators (who will exclude themselves from recieving prizes). _______________________________________________________________________________ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Tournament Game: "A29" Turn Number: 1 Gamefile Sent To: TMPsycho-B (Orange) (jesse@industrynet.net) Date Sent: Friday October 10, 1997 at 01:29 PM EDT Date Gamefile Due: Monday October 13, 1997 at 1:29 PM EDT (In GMT-0500: Monday October 13, 1997 at 12:29 PM) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- _______________________________________________________________________________ The following message was sent on Thursday October 16, 1997 at 06:50 AM EDT by GOELIAN Nerses to all players; Hye players and moderator of A29!

Reporters hero Tuor emerges in CNN home office, as his first official heroic act Tuor disbands the scouts as a punishment for using his typewriter without permission. Realizing that he hated scouts with a passion, Tuor then ate breakfast and ordered the creation of an elephant training facility in the CNN Office. Heeding his reporters instinct, Tuor ran over to the city of Sarajevo on a hunch that something big was about to happen. He was correct since the populace of Sarajevo had planned a celebration after the Sarajevo city council voted 7-1 to join the reporters alliance. Upon entering the city Tuor disbanded their scouts and removed from the city the ability to produce same. The gratitude of the populace for these acts was a wonder to behold as they showered Tuor with 175 gold during his triumphal march through the city. In gratitude Tuor caused to be dug a Giant Bat Cavern for Sarajevo on the spot, and then went to Mcdonald's for dinner.

If this be not to strenuous a wish (since you have already sacked the gold from them). Please indicate soon (since my turn will end shortly).

I do hereby relinquish both Moscow and Atlanta to you. I have placed Lt Infantry recruiting garrisons in both of those cities, and I suggest you do not pillage them, as you would end up having to spend more gold to replace the fortifications destroyed in such an attack then you would actually receive in the pillageing. I propose the following simple stipulations as conditions of our alliance: 1) No temple sitting unless an approach from an enemy flying troop is DIRECTLY imminent. Careful not to allow an army run out of movement points on the temple. 2) Ruins in our own respective quadrants are off limits to one another. This inclues: Vicker's Finale, Zak's Zone, Lair of Leung, and Max's Manor (These are ruins I could not search) and Bob Heeter's Bar (The Northern Flying item) and Hulseman's keep would be off limits to you. The breaking of the above conditions could fairly be received as an act of war. 3) The proper breaking of the treaty would be announced IN the achived turn report of your own turn, two turns in advance. This means that if you announce the declaration of war on turn 7, you would be the FIRST one to attack on turn 9. Are these conditions fair? Please feel free to offer any of your own that I may have neglected to consider.

Signed herein by Turin Turambar, CEO HomeOffice Times... NEWSFLASH ... NEWSFLASH ... NEWSFLASH ... This is Hugh McAssaulthead reporting from the front lines! In a long anticipated move Reporters have simultaneously begun massive investigational reports in 4 enemy cities. Corruption of untold magnitude was discovered by the troops ... err reporters ... of Pleasebeit in the eastern enclaves of the organizers. Huge production facilities for illegal steroids were discovered by Pbi in the organizer cities of Helsinki and Mexico City. Although resistance to the truth was stiff, in the end the light of Pbi's story was understood. Shocked by the obvious guilt on the faces of the exposed organizers, the populace of those two cities picked up pens and notepads and joined the staff of Pbi's front reporters. The facilities used by the organizers to produce steroids had been cleverly disguised as Heavy Infantry training grounds. These facilities were burnt to the ground after all usable (and legal) parts had been reclaimed. A total of 150 gold was recovered in both of these cities from this ecologically sound project, and 44 gold in illegal endorsements was donated to the HomeOffice Times coffers by the enraged citizens of both these cities. This is Hugh McAssaulthead reporting from near Mexico city .... NEWSFLASH ... NEWSFLASH ... NEWSFLASH ... This is Doris Followthetroops reporting from the front lines! Crack reporters from the Eastern Army ...errr... reporting division have discovered numerous illegal cable hookups in the Spectator cities of Grenoble and Rio. Reports posted by our crack underworld reporter Devil revealed an astonishing 53% illegal cable hookup rate amongst the populace of Grenoble. Police and civil authorities in conjunction from several battalions of spider and archer reporters combined with the Devil to confiscate these illegal hookups and imprison the offenders. Following these offenses the citizens of Grenoble were levied fines totalling 22 gold piieces. Since all of the non-offenders were subscribers to the HomeOffice Times, they decided to join in our truthful crusade agains corruption and untruth. In a followup story in the city of Rio undertaken by our swiftest reporter --Elemental-- even more astonishing results were discovered. After 57% of the populace had been imprisoned for illegal hookups the remaining 43% (again, curiously, all subscribers to the Times) Rio also voted to join the reporter cause. Fines for the town of Rio again totalled 22 gold. Film of these investigations is below. This has been Doris Followthetroops reporting from the suburbs of Grenoble.... ....Meanwhile in domestic news ...... Financial advisors report that we have received a substatnial boost when Pleasebeit received official sponsorship in our quest for the truth. This has given us an additional +6 gold in revenues per city per turn. ...The reporters corps of engineers reports that new production facilities were built in the following cities: Mexico City -- catapult throwing practice range --1000g Rio --giant productionfacilities --1100g Helsinki -- dwarf production facilities-- 450g Innsbruck -- dwarf production facilities-- 450g ...

Good Evening. Today in celebration of the birthday of our glorious leader, Turin Turambar, we have produced this edition a little late. Rumors abound that on the Eastern front the Lord Pleasebeit has gone spelunking in Dirk's Cavern and scared up a pair of ghosts to aid in the cause of the reporters. At the same time on the western front, the Lord Tuor has visited Max's Mansion and found 2482 in the crevices of Max's furniture. Max should clean more often! Our ace reporter, devil, has investigated reports of rampant corruption in the Spectator village of Sapporo, and was given the keys to the city in gratitude. This is normally a figurative gesture but in the case of Sapporo was quite literal! The people of Sapporo spontaneously cast out their cavalry stables to live gloriously free of martial presence. The money received from the sale of the stables to private interest was donated to the Times for a total of 100 gold. The reporters corps of engineers has produced bew facilities for the production of giant bats and Light infantry in Helsinki, while a griffin hatchery was founded in Nagano.

If that be your wish I see no Yes. We still must play the game out till turn 20, but this will go quickly after we eliminate the enemy. What I suggest is that we both continue to make the temple available so that we may bless our armies at the temple for the final analysis until the very end at turn 20. I suggest you vector as many armies as you can to the temple to bless them so you may have your armies count as much as possible at the end of the war. >need to quarrel with you over such a thing!

I propse this: That we both settle with whatever cities we both occupy when the enemy is destroyed. As a show of good will, I have made no aggressive action towards Sapporo, and I freely relinquish Los Angeles and Melbourne to you, and will make no aggressive action towards those cities. I feel it would be a waste to destroy any remaining cities. I accept your proposal and place my trust in you that you will continue on a note of good faith. I will make no aggressive action towards you or any of your holdings whatsoever unless you make an aggressive action towards my own armies. I will again suggest that you leave the temple free so that we may both continue to bless our troops at the temple until the end of the game. >Lord master Psycho, need we slaughter each other over petty >concerns, or shall we attempt to move on to the second round >as nice guys? We need not slaughter each other over petty concerns. I agree that we should move on to the second round as "nice guys". Let us capture what enemy cities we can (Los Angeles and Melbourne are yours) and not take any aggressive action towards one another. The cities will round out relatively even, and no cities will be needlessly and thoughtlessly destroyed.
