**Special thanks to the native Nations cup admins for allowing us to use most of their resources**

This summer, Byzantium clan, with the help of NDitions community are glad to present to you the first cRPG NATIONS CUP!
Players from all over the world will join forces to battle alongside their countrymen and hopefully be the winning nation.
We will be mainly following the guidelines of the successful native Nations Cup, with some variances.
The tournament will have 2 phases: a group phase followed by a knockout phase. The details of brackets and such will be outlined closer towards the start of the tournament.
To become the captain of your nation’s team, it is very simple. Apply Here (http://nditions.de/forum/index.php?board=77.0) If there is more than one application, the aspiring concerned nation captains will get to vote for their captain internally.
The elected captain can then, start forming his team and players can apply for their nation by posting an application in their Nation’s topic (Link will be displayed once the captains are designated)
Soon, we'll also be opening admin/referee applications. If you wish to help us, we'd be extremely grateful, you can apply Here (http://nditions.de/forum/index.php?topic=1763.0)

First all nations that want to participate will be required to get their captain, if afterwards the captain is unable to form a full team we can try matching some smaller nations together, although we will try to avoid this as much as possible.

We need to nominate/ open applications for people who want to set up livestreams, be commentators or video recorders. Also, how many spectators are going to be allowed, will it be restricted or unrestricted? I suggest that priority spectator slots will be for streamers, commentators, video recorders and substitutes. Will there be a dedicated Teamspeak/ Ventrilo server/channel for this tournament? A dedicated channel would mean that referees/ organizers can keep sort who goes into which team channel, prevent eavesdroppers and ensure that ONLY players NOT substitutes are in their team channel. 
Title: Re: cRPG Nations Cup
Post by: Zotte on May 22, 2012, 08:55:51 pm
Teamspeak is provided by the nditions team, we will start with streaming and recording later on, as were trying to find some solutions for the spectating problem in competative matches.

We'll probably only allowe both 16 players, refferees, and eventual broadcasters, no randomers. Server will be passworded.
Working on setting up spectator mode like in native.

NA should get some advantage over EU teams obviously for having to deal with high ping.

Post by: CrazyCracka420 on May 22, 2012, 09:35:26 pm
Who's going to nominate themselves captain for USA?  Hopefully someone with some leadership qualities.

Trying to play on EU servers (with Minimum of 150 ping) is brutal.  If you don't start blocking as soon as you see the chamber direction your block won't count.
Title: Re: cRPG Nations Cup
Post by: Zotte on May 22, 2012, 09:39:56 pm
If you guys manage to assemble a good NA east team and get used to the increased ping the disadvantage is quite small, you just have to adapt your fighting style a bit. It's more about ping spikes then higher ping in general.

Ramses will no doubt step forward to Captain a Danish team.

Likewise with the sentiment though.  If i'm not needed as UK Captain or as a player i'll happily apply as a referee :)

Might apply for referee or German captain or some such. Depends on when it will take place.

Half the battles on NA server so only 1 country can have low ping? maybe 2 with canada if they can get players..

Well to be fair, EU countries are basically the size of murican states (some bigger countries larger than most of our states, but some of our medium sized states larger than the smaller EU countries).

So the "1 country" is basically the same size as EU.

It doesn't even have to be east-only. Given the proper playing style, the ping disadvantage is minute, as long as it's under 240.

And Balton, no, it's not.  Try manually blocking with 240 ping, let me know how many you block even when the enemy telegraphs the swing they are coming at you with.

I've topped the scoreboard on EU many times, and I have 240 ping there. The best defense is a good offense.

When TEAM USA plays, can we have like 2 rounds on the NA servers and 2 on EU. I mean, EU guys get 115-145 ping on NA servers, while NA guys get 160-200 on EU servers. ( except mano)

Read the thread guess not. :( Maybe we should have a battle of all the 50 US states in a tournament. Winner of that tournament fights the winner of the EU one, BUT they would go 3 on NA and 3 on EU.

I told him that. If we tried really, really hard, we might be able to scrounge up some 10 players, perhaps, but many of them would still be people that rarely play, if ever.

Why would you make a rule stating EU servers only? If ping is such a marginal issue then why wouldn't it be 50/50 or a coin toss when NA and EU teams are playing each other? A bit ridiculous if you're actually trying to run a valid tournament, honestly.

Why not make it EU nations cup?

Was supposed to be EU at first, but we almost never play with the US, so we though, why not allow them to play too?
We played on NA servers the other day, and it was doable. I'm sure with a bit of practise... Plus, didn't the Us already win an EU tourney? :)

because i primarily aimed this towards EU, NA is ofcourse also invited to join but it is to much of a hassle for me to organize a fully international tournament, anyway i'm sure that with your huge playerbase you can find 16 people willing to smash some EU heads :p and if you cant then you could always organize a NA state cup or something like that.

Post by: CrazyCracka420 on May 23, 2012, 04:29:06 pm
I understand that zotte, it makes sense.  I think we'll still be able to get 16 NA who want to still play.  I'm thinking we'll have a lot more than 16 who want to, so we'd need to do tryouts of some sort.

So since its played on just EU servers can you please change it to cRPG Nations Cup - NA? Maybe we'll do something different, technically we only have two nations, Canada V.S. U.S.A. - Perhaps we'll do a "cRPG States n' Providence Cup. Michiganders HOlla!!!
There's A LOT more countries than just Canada and USA. You might want to check it out:

Captain applications will end soon, if your country hasn't signed up yet and you think you wont be able to bring up 16 men. then just sign up anyway and we'll see about merging with other smaller countries. If you can bring up 16 men and haven't signed up yet then apply already you lazy gits (i'm looking at you USA and Poland)

reminder that a country that has not signed up at all will also not be eligible for mergings.

I think many players will be a bit disappointed if they can't play or have to constantly switch though.
Also, why would it be too hard? Server-wise or organizing-wise?
Title: Re: cRPG Nations Cup
Post by: Zotte on May 30, 2012, 11:20:34 pm
Many teams would be unable to consistently bring out enough players, as said before the standard is 10, but if there are more players online on both sides, and if both teams agree to play with more players this is possible.
Title: Re: cRPG Nations Cup
Post by: Bjord on May 30, 2012, 11:26:36 pm
Why not make 12 a standard as each team will have to have 16 registered players regardless? Then if a team is unable to bring enough players you can lower the total players per side to 10 or even 8.

Maybe a bit of a hassle but I'm sure it will work without any issues. I think it's more fun for everyone if more people get to participate in the event. I'll probably switch around my reservees so they get to play as well.

Ok, I first didn't know it was tournoi, the current term for it, since tournament was to be very likely it. Though the verb tournoyer (or tourneier) together with -ment is the old french word tourneiement. I think tournoi has the same meaning.

I should have time to take back over from exxc by the end of next week, make sure you get your initial team comps ready, i will first organize a couple of test matches to try out specific rule sets before the rules are to be finalized. Either teams that already have a basic line-up or clans will be asked to help out with these matches.

This means that during this period the nations that need to merge with others nations will be arranged.

I would also like to remind you that we still need more referees, having double coverage on matches would be ideal, furthermore for the teams that do not yet want to pick their 16 members remember that your teams line-up can be changed up to 4 days in advance of each match.

How can we post lineups without knowing the actual rules?

Until I know what I am actually working towards then my "lineup" consists of every single UK player that has so far attended a training or registered their interest.  That's about 25 - 30 players atm

I should have time to take back over from exxc by the end of next week, make sure you get your initial team comps ready, i will first organize a couple of test matches to try out specific rule sets before the rules are to be finalized. Either teams that already have a basic line-up or clans will be asked to help out with these matches.

This means that during this period the nations that need to merge with others nations will be arranged.

I would also like to remind you that we still need more referees, having double coverage on matches would be ideal, furthermore for the teams that do not yet want to pick their 16 members remember that your teams line-up can be changed up to 4 days in advance of each match.

There is plenty of interest but we just need you to post some rules before we can name any line ups.  None of us want to name a lineup of 16 now and have our other players lose interest, only for us to find we need those other players when the rules are finally announced.

There have been plenty of tournaments/battles in the past so just use similar rules to those with a bit of common sense.  Personally, I would go for the following

1) All Chars allowed (Mains, Alts & STFs)
2) Squads are made up of 16 chars (not players)
3) Max of 4 Cav per squad
4) Max of 4 Ranged per squad (inc throwers)
5) Horse Archers count as both Cav and Ranged
6) All Armour/Weapons allowed including looms
7) Only 1 Armoured horse allowed at a time in a match
8) Any combination of chars from the squad allowed in a match.
9) Matches are 10vs10 by default and can only be increased if both Teams agree

Yes, some people will object to this but that really doesn't matter.  So long as the rules are vaguely sensible and can be enforced easily by referees then you can pick whatever you want.

As i have stated beforehand, we will soon be hosting some test matches, for which i will need teams during these test matches we will draft the final rule sets.

I have also stated that each team can change their 16 man line-up up to 4 days before every match, to make substitutions and adjustments in tactics, meaning that if you handle things properlu as a captain and rotate your positions in the team there is no need for your reserve to lose interest.

I really need to know each team's current numbers and rough line up so that i can start merging smaller nations, and the longer this is dragging on the longer it will take before this event can properly start.

1) Deciding things according to test matches is only going to favour the teams in those test matches

2) Why force us to jump through these hoops and create extra work for Captains to keep players happy when their really isn't any need.

3)  I'm sure you and the other people organising this tournament have played enough cRPG to just come up with a decent rule set so why doubt yourself?  Just name something with a bit of common sense and we will abide by it.

I really need to know each team's current numbers and rough line up so that i can start merging smaller nations, and the longer this is dragging on the longer it will take before this event can properly start.

You can have my current numbers without me naming a squad.

UK has 16+ players and will have no trouble forming a squad. If you want us to we can merge with Ireland to form a UK & Ireland team so that the small number of Irish players aren't left out but that is up to you.

There - done :)

Try to get in contact with Beauchamp or some of the Fallen I guess, they're the ones who organized quite a few past tournaments. They were mostly melee only and in small enclosed areas, but there were also regular matches. What was the ruleset for the last cRPG tournament? It was something along the lines of what Plavor said, only limits were heavy armor, cav (including 1 heavy cav limit), and ranged (I think it was 3 ranged max, 2 type of ranged max, i.e 2 archers and 1 xbow, 2 xbows and 1 archer, and HA counter for a cav AND ranged slot).
Title: Re: cRPG Nations Cup
Post by: Zotte on June 24, 2012, 10:16:48 pm
I did not ask everyones opinion on the needed rule set, seeing as the scale of the tournament will be quite a lot larger then any we have had so far this needs to be done properly. the aim is to create a balance of classes while still allowing for plenty of flexibility, heirloom/STF restricitions will also need to be set, the servers themselves need to be tested, the referees need to be evaluated, the server settings will also need to be finalized, the maps will also need to be selected, the list goes on and on. In short there needs to be a lot of things done in the current weeks to ensure a fun and hopefully equal and competative tournament, which is why we will be hosting test matches to make sure everything goes alright, it has no use already setting the class / item/ STF restrictions already since we do not know the proper balance for an event such as this.

What this basicly means is that the captains should just get their teams ready and listed, making adjustments later if needed. So that i can continue doing my part in all of this.

German team is ready to field 16+ players for Nations Cup. If necessary, we could be merged with Austria/Switzerland if they do not manage to field enough players.

Title: Re: cRPG Nations Cup
Post by: Michael on June 25, 2012, 02:33:39 pm
So how far is this project?

Germans are in, noone else?

Smaller countries might have the problem to not have enough players, especially when you want to limit some classes.

You would want to have at least eight teams I assume.

Why not allow smaller countries to pair-up? Even in native some countries were allowed to form alliances.

Here is my suggestion:

Team 1: Germany (has enough players, could probably get a Germany 2)

Teams 2 and 3: Russia and America (should have enough players but might want some bonus to compensate ping)

Team 4: France, reinforced by players from nearby countries (Switzerland, Belgium, ....)

Team 5: northern Europe: Sweden, Denmark, Finland, ....

Team 6: eastern Europe: Poland, Ukraine, Latvia, ........

Team 7: western Europe: UK, Netherlands, .....

Team 8: team southeastern europe: Austria, Croatia, Greece, .....

Team 9: the south, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Africa

Team 10: well I guess you got the system



EDIT: Ah, noticed UK has already enough, so the Netherlands can help elsewhere (or even start their own team)

I would merge Austria and Swizz with Germany because we all speak the same language and if they need to be merge, it would allow them to participate too.

Or just merge Austria with Swizz or 2 of 3 together.

I think that Denmark has enough players while Norway,Sweden and Finland may get enough players to play but even though, they need some people to fill the gaps if anyone is missing.

I would suggest to merge :

Sweden + Norway  or    Sweden + Finland  or   Norway + Finland

Germany + Austria or  Germany + Swizz   or   Austria + Swizz  ( If Swizz or Austrian need to be merged, I think so )

UK    or     UK + Irland

Latvia + Estonia for sure

Belgium + Netherlands ( if they need to be merged )

France : Vive la france, nuff said.

Turkey has enoug people, Cicero said he could form 3x 16 rosters

Russia and America, both have a worse ping than central europe but I think that they will have to adjust, they have a huge choice for players :)


Only suggestions.

Language is not an argument.
This mods language has always been English, and everyone understands a few words, and many still dont know chadz understands German.

The Germans have all advantages anyway, but thats not the point.

Merging should be allowed for those that cant get enough players, so that they can participate, but not to make a large pool of players even larger.

Most teams that I know of have had at least 20+ players show up for trainings, the provisionary France team has alrdy played a friendly with Belgium, the reason no one has submitted lists yet is because we: Don't know the final ruleset, don't know when the cup actually starts, so any lists given might as well be fictional.

He probably knows that, the thing is that all the small nations should try to get as many people together so they can be merged with others to form 1 full team. Sadly few people got that idea, props to Bombi.

Merge with who, 2 bosnian players who are playing this mod? I doubt they would like that.

Croatia has a team, so they won't accept any kind of merge. Merging with anyone else doesn't make any sense. Merging Serbia with, let's say, Hungary or Romania is the same as me playing for UK...

Bombi and his friends are from Serbia but I doubt there's more than 5 of them playing cRPG.

There's Mlekce and Varadin and his friend Drolja. That's eight players so far (under assumption that Bombi has 5 players). I'm the ninth player.

Nine isn't close to sixteen. Bombi needs at least 11 friends playing cRPG to form a national team and that depends will I be able to play or not (if not he needs 12).

Why is that ? This will make a bad precedent that one nation has a different rights than a second one [from general view]. Rules should be equal for all teams. So just remove restriction 4/5 players from one clan.

You clearly know better than the rest of us, right? In warband native Norway has failed to make a team for either of the Nation Cups, and we're not even close to get 16 players on cRPG either. I don't know about Sweden/Denamrk, they might be able to form a team by themself for all that I know, but that means we Norwegians can't play at all. :|

I'll be taking a look at merging options tomorrow. Captains can contact me with some suggestions if they want to.

For now the most logical choice seems Denmark merging with Norway, as norway did not get a new captain but should have enough members to fill up Denmarks gaps.

For Sweden we'll have to find another solution though.

other then that most nations seem to have enough people with a sizeable reserve.

We'll also have to settle on timing for the event, currently we will either be looking at a Mid-late July start, though it seems some people have expresses an interest in starting the event in September. each captain should send me a PM with his team's preferred month

What? There's always been a bunch of french players in many different clans. You know when the french connection battles were happening in the desert? There was french fighting on the other side of that :P . No offense to pecores or ecorcheurs or any other clan entirely made of french, they have some really good players, but not nearly the majority of them...I'd say a lot of the good french players are sprinkled in many different multinational clans.

Merging with anyone else doesn't make any sense. Merging Serbia with, let's say, Hungary or Romania is the same as me playing for UK...


There is a difference.

UK has enough players.
So when you played for them, you would make a large pool of players even larger what could be considered as some sort of exploit to get a team of higher quality by reinforcing the team by players from other countries.

"Merging" players from countries with only a few active players should be allowed, so that guys like you, P*anos (if he manages to stay unbanned for a while), Cyber, ....... can participate at all. Its not your fault that Germany has a player base of 300 players, and your country of 3.

Its funny that the country with probably the biggest player pool (Germany) is allowed to "merge" with Austria and Switzerland.

Whatever. If the people in charge fail to see reason I can be a referee if needed, otherwise I can play with a skip the fun guy for whoever who needs one more player.

That's not really the point Cicero should be making. Its about pools. Croatia has a limited pool of players and this rule might just kill us off since half of us are from the same clan and there's probably a few more Nations with similar situation. I mean what if out of 16 players signed 10 of them show up for the match but 7 are Saracens and 3 are others, we can't play like that ? On the other hand - Poland has a much bigger pool to chose from but in only Greys are organized and serious enough i don't mind Polish team consisting of 10 clanmates rather then 5 Greys + 5 random Poles. It can only lead to poor results, poor excuses, bad organization, etc. Turks are a bit specific with their internal "affairs" but that shouldn't be other Nation's problem, just let 'em slaughter each other and the winner represents Turkey in NC.  :wink:

The first stage of the tournament will start on the 13th of August, from there on each team fights one match a week during for a period of 3-4 weeks, after this 8 teams will be selected for the following stage. this next stage is the knockout stage, this stage will last for another 3 weeks, note that ties are no longer possible during this stage. with tiebreaker rounds being played after the 16 rounds if necessary.

Each week of the tournament, two maps will be picked by the event team, all matches must be played on these two maps, out of these maps one map will be a 'closed' map and the other will be an 'open' map.

More info on the groups will be coming soon

we are also still looking for more referees and people interested in streaming.

as a final note, the 5 clan rule can be stretched (to 7) during a match if a referee agrees with it, i do not expect this to happen often as teams should be able to pick a time where most of them can be present.

Servers NC_cRPG_1 NC_cRPG_2 NC_cRPG_3 are now up, the map rotation will be uploaded to it soon so that teams can test the maps if necessary.

hello we apreciate all what u did for nc but
u look like wake up a bit too late just 2 days ago before the date ...
it should not be better to start nc in september??? time to everybody come back from hollidays ?
because if it's still start in one week that will not be a nation cup anymore but a kind of eu cup with 6 countries...

about the rule with 5 slot for range/cavs
there is not a way to allow one ha per team who just take one slot ?
because rules look a bit strict and everybody will have the same kind of composition ... that's sucks!!!

why not add resctiction too on 2 hander able to wear a shield for example ... (dont feel focus cicero it's just an example)

imo just report the nc take your time for made a better event than something who look made at the last minute
Title: Re: cRPG Nations Cup
Post by: Plavor on August 12, 2012, 01:49:23 pm
Blackbow, I don't think that everybody will have the same teambuild, just similiar what shows in my opinion the individual skill and the teamplay for each team, if they win.

I also don't think and won't suggest that Zotte will change the restrictions just because maybe French can use 1 more HA/Cav/range more.

They are well as they are.

And if you would add restrictions to 2h with Shield, it would just restrict the teambuild btw... maybe there are 2h/shield+dagger/1h hybrids?

And it isn't Zotte's fault since some of uf just pushed the idea too early without the acknowledge of the main organisator Zotte who took Exxc's and Lactose's part since they are both busy or on holiday.

what cost a report in september ?
report it in september and if u need more hands for help in organisation (streaming, referee, cheerleaders... )
just ask and it will be a pleasure to help and to find u some ppl !!
REPORT NC IN SEPTEMBER PLZ PPL ARE IN HOLLIDAYS !!!

about this rule i dont think speaking in only name of frenchs (for example i think about tuonela)
with the slot rules we cant have 2 cavs+2archers+1 ha (imo look like a classic compo)
wtf this pro melee shit? it's nation melee cup ???

just had 1 ha allowed per team and give to ha 1 slot not 2

And if you would add restrictions to 2h with Shield, it would just restrict the teambuild btw... maybe there are 2h/shield+dagger/1h hybrids?
if a 2h/shield or any other hybrid have no restriction why an archer cant be hybrid too as ha ??
same as a 2hander who take a bamboo spear, he should cost 2 slot if we folow the rule (like a stupid french i agree but... )

about ha did u ever tested ha ?? it's fucking buged , do no damage, no accuracy ... but it's a good support class
so imo it's not so dangerous and justify this rule (rule made by.... i pretty sure by a 2hander =)

ALLOW 1 HA PER TEAM WHO COST ONLY ONE SLOT PLEASE !!!
REPORT NC IN SEPTEMBER PLEASE !!!!

Zotte made the rule so you cannot just get all your nice cavs and range.

You have to decide between your amount of cav, range and horse range.

Sry, but if you cannot agree with this, then do something else.

And if a lot of nations aren't ready, Zotte will maybe start in September.

What blackbow is saying is the cost of placing ONE horse archer is tremendous, regarding his actual efficiency in battle.

Maybe after a patch that would add speed bonus on archery/throwing/crossbowing when on horseback, it would be logical; but actually it is just plain stupid and will prevent the teams from using all the classes present in the game, leading to less strategy, variety, fun and ruining the Nation Cup for those who plays such classes.


Using a HA/HC/HT in a 10v10 match with organized teams in formation, with ranged covered by pikemen/cav and a solid group of infantry, how could they be THAT powerful that we have to use 2 slots for ONE ? Frankly it would take a master horse ranged and a stupid team in the opposite corner for me to select a ranged cav with this rule.


This isnt a competition-breaking problem, just a small point that could be adressed with proper reasoning.



Regarding Nation Cup probability of success, 2 days ago I was 99% sure it would be simply cancelled (and my french teammates too). This isnt just people doubting and being afraid, this is a case of poor reactivity of the admin team. I understand after Plavor has posted that Zotte had to take lots of role and deal with his RL too, but you cant have a really ambitious event and use such excuses.

You saved NC from total chaos just in time and I hope you'll find ways to keep this rolling until everyone's ready to hack each others to pieces.

Less talking, more fighting XD. Let's just take it as we go along, remember the Fallen tourney? It never even got finished. The release of Strat 4 might very well completely railroad the whole thing midway. If matches happen in a timely manner with full rosters, good, if they don't, oh wells. Coordinating this type of thing is tough, it doesn't exactly take priority over all the other vastly more important things people need to do.

Zotte made the rule so you cannot just get all your nice cavs and range.


so if i understand, zotte is god, and he's a pro melee anti ranged who got raped when he was children  by an ha ?

i rly start to think at leave this bullshit nation cup or should i say this eu cup pro melee where every team (80%) will have  6 melee 2 cav 2 ranged ...

so u can be hybrid of everything but if u are a bit ranged ... now way!!! i call it racism anti my old friendsrange
please just add an other retard rule like this one :

a hoplite is an hoplite and cant switch in polearms mode
a 2h is a 2h and cant wear a shield or xbow or a spear
like said plavor that break the team build no?
a cavs 1hand shielder should not take 2 slot ? he's cavs and melee in same time no ???
etc.......

FREE HA !!!!

Maybe just stop calling this Nations Cup, please?

Cause it should be restricted only to the nationality of player and number of players per team.

1 player takes on server 1! slot and stands (rides) at 1!!! place at 1 moment.

You disagree with archers/cavs/tincans spam? find a way to beat it...

Pottentialy every player in warband can kill every other player on server. For example HA will not provide any adventage if his horse will be killed on the beggining/he will get killed by the archers.

Not true. He can still shoot arrows and if he's also good on foot, he is dangerous.

And if he shoots another cav without killing the horse, he can just whistle for it and has a new horse :P

I suggest that all the player validation for the countries that met some problems be reset, so that we can increase the number of participant and permit some great players to play this nation cup.

A lot of them were refused for things that could have been corrected if given enough time; time that we now have aplenty.

i don't understand what's difficult about this, i could get the ball rolling i guess if someone gives me a hand ...

is it literally a case of

-getting each team it's own forum page
-building a list of team contacts and players
-drawing up a match schedule and a set of match rules for the tournament

?? because i'd be quite happy to follow to the letter the successful format they used on native for umpteen tournaments .. ?

to begin with, if you want a successful nations cup it needs its own sub-forum, with several master threads (stickies), one with introduction, rules etc, one with teams and team captains, and one with upcoming matches. then of course each team needs it's own thread.
