The Clan League is back and we're now gearing up for season 2 so kick your leaders into action and get your clan involved
KEY CHANGES
- Clans are now ranked according to performance in all fixtures and assigned points
- Prizes will be awarded to the highest ranked team and the most improved team each season so long as both teams have completed at least 16 fixtures during that season.
- These fixtures can be played at any time during the season.
- Seasons will last 6 months and are run back to back with no gaps.
- The cut off dates for seasons will be the Sunday before Xmas Eve and the corresponding Sunday in June.
- This means this next season will end at midnight CET on Sunday 22nd December
- There is no cut off date for entry and clans can enter anytime by contacting an Admin
- We are currently in the process of creating a webpage to handle and automate as much of the admin work as possible and the new season will start as soon as it is ready.
- Rostering has changed (see below)
- Crushthrough weapons are now allowed but will count towards your ranged/cav limit
- Keep checking here for further announcements
League Rules are as follows
Team Entry
- Just contact an Admin and they will guide you through it
- There's no entry fee but you will need to show you have enough players before we add you to the League
Organising matches
- This should be done through clan captains.
- There will be a steam group with all Captains and Lieutenants but other means of contacting captains is fine too.
- Once a match is scheduled one Captain should add the fixture on the web page. This will also book a server for your team (so long as it is free).
- The match can be created when reporting results if needed but you will not have the benefit of the booking feature in this case.
Matches
- Matches are 8v8 by default but if both Captains agree then this can be increased at the time of the match.
- Each match consists of 8 rounds on any single approved map with a spawn switch after 4 rounds.
- You can play any opponent as many times as you want.
- Ranking Points will be determined according to each teams previous ranking points and the match result.
- Flags will be a valid way of winning rounds
- Only designated ranged and cav players can loot horses or ranged weapons
Server Settings
- Spectators should be locked to viewing their own team only (ghost mode)
- Rounds should last 8 minutes (480 seconds)
- Mode = Battle
- Don't change anything else
Submitting results
- Results must be submitted on the website and confirmed by both Captains
- After each match one captain should post the result whilst the other immediately confirms it. This should come as rounds won/lost with the home team being the first team named.. For example,
Clan X (home clan) v Clan Y: 7 - 1
In the event of two matches being played back to back, results should be submitted separately. E.g:
Clan X v Clan Y : 7 - 1
Clan Y v Clan X : 5 - 3
In the event of a disagreement over the submitted result an admin will investigate and make a decision.
Equipment/Class Restrictions
- No armour above Eastern Star Scale is allowed
- Looms are permitted
- At most 40% (rounded down) of your team may use horses, crushthrough or ranged weapons.
- Horse archers/xbows/throwing and heavy cav (Barded Warhorse or above) will count double towards this limit.
- Heavy horse archers/xbows/throwing will count triple.
Rosters
- Teams must register all their players on the website however Captains can do this automatically themselves at anytime
- There is no limit to the number of players you can register
- However players must be in the ladder for their clan and must use the correct banner when fighting
- When registering, it is a players forum account name that should be used and then all characters for that player will be registered accordingly
- If you are attempting to register a player that is already registered for another team you will need to get either their previous team captains approval or the approval of an admin.
- Players cannot switch teams more than once a month
Cheating
- If you suspect another team of cheating, stop playing and contact an admin.
- If an admin is available they will attempt to address the problem so that the match can continue.
- If an Admin is not available then cancel the match and register a complaint with an Admin
- Admins will then investigate and determine if any action is needed.
- Punishments will be harsh especially for repeat offenses.
- First offense = disqualification from the season, although points will still be calculated for future seasons so teams can continue playing.
- Second Offense = disqualification from the League of the Clan Captain, if the team wants to continue they will need a new Captain.
- Third Offense = possibly disqualification of the entire team permanently.
- Only report if you are sure and the issue could not be resolved amicably between captains.
Admins

- Battalion flags and smoke bombs are bugged on the HRE_Fallen servers. Do NOT use them.

[/list] - I have no idea why it insists on adding this :(
Clan League Update
This is still alive and any teams wishing to join in should let us know. There's been a lot of inactive clans over summer but now they're getting active again so we should be able to get plenty of matches in before the deadline in December.
OdE are definitely active for scrims (just fought them today). Contact OdE_Squall if you want to fight them
Fallen are active for scrims - Just contact Tendalor
Guards should still be up for the odd scrim (i hope :D ) - contact Tenne if you want a match
HRE are active again on EU2 at least so have no excuse not to fight a match - contact lazy_Fips_HRE to fight them
Hopefully Byzantium, Mercs, SB, Eques and Kapikulu will also confirm their activity and give us some more options for opponents. And new team are welcome to enter at any stage.
See http://46.32.229.176/Chris_Project/Tournament_Website/index.php for details
Finally a reminder of the things on Tenne's to do list :D1) Update Ecorcheur/Imperiale's name/tag to OdE
2) Add a Season 2 points change column to the teams so we can see how we're doing.
3) Add sort options to the points and Season 2 points gained columns so we can see who is top more easily.
EASY win for fallen.
Also post the website in the OP please!
Looking for a clan for this if i'm allowed!
