This thread is for discussing some rules concerning the tournament, we will handle the following topics in the OP.
1. STF characters
2. Class/Item restrictions
If you want to dispute any rules given in the main thread that can also be done here.
STF characters
There have been some discussions concerning if we should limit participation to skip the fun only, in our opinion we believe that characters and heirlooms are part of cRPG and thus we would like to keep them in the competition, in our previous experience with cRPG competition especially the Fallen tournament we noticed that it wasnt the most heirloomed teams to win but the teams that worked together most effectively, one could argue that heirlooms have a larger effect in public battles as those have less teamwork and more small 1v1 fights.
Furthermore we think that most if not all nations that participate can easily bring up a team with an adequate amount of heirlooms, while this might not have been possible a year ago, the game has become quite top heavy with many people being on a high generation.
However we would still like to give the option to discuss whether or not we should enforce STF.
Class/Item restrictions
currently in almost all events/clan battles done there is some form of class or item restrictions in place. Should we have the same for this Nations Cup? Below you can find some options that we recommend, discuss and vote on them.
Classes ranged/cav
1. No restrictions
2. No more than 2 ranged and 2 cavalry
3. No more than 5 ranged and cavalry combined
4. No more than 3 ranged and 3 cavalry
Ranged on horse takes both one ranged slot and one cavalry slot, throwing also takes a ranged slot.
Classes Melee
1. No restrictions
2. Limit pikes to X per team
3. Limit Crushthrough to X per team
Items
No restrictions
Limit amount of heavy horses to X
Limit amount of armour above price Z to Y
Disallow heirlooms (only possible with enforced Skip the Fun)
If there are any other class or item options that you want to discuss then do so here.
