In addition to being part of TPA6, this is also the ninth tournament in my series based on my original homeland -- Czechoslovakia -- and Oneyed 's excellent map of it. Each of the 25 tournaments in this series celebrates some aspect of a different town or city on the map, and matches it to some game type or setting on CC. For more information on my CSFR series visit the DKs CSFR Frag series Infocentre show: history of the Budweiser controversy
České Budějovice (Budweis in German and English) has been a major beer-brewing centre since its founding in 1265. The Czech king at the time, Otakar II, needed a Czech power base in southern Bohemia to compete with the powerful German families in the area. One of the privileges that he gave the new town in its founding charter was the right to operate a brewery. From there, the influence of Budějovice in the beer brewing industry grew steadily. Its charter was affirmed and extended by many Czech kings and Holy Roman Emperors, including Charles IV, Wenceslaus IV, Ferdinand I, and others.Budweiser vs. Budweiser trademark dispute remains one of the largest and longest ongoing legal wars ever fought. A treaty in 1907 was supposed to resolve the dispute, granting Annheuser-Busch the right to use the name in America and Budweiser Budvar Brewery the right to use the name in Europe. This was not, however, the last word. More than 100 separate legal battles have been fought. Following the broad outline of the 1907 treaty, Annheuser-Busch currently is the recognised trademark holder in most North American countries and Budvar Brewery is the recognised trademark holder in 23 of 27 European Union countries. Many outstanding issues exist and disputes continue.
Ever since Ferdinand I made Budweiser the official beer of the Holy Roman Empire, it (the original) has been known as "The Beer of Kings." Anheuser-Busch adopted the slogan "The King of Beers". They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. In this tournament, you will gain fame by going out from the Budweiser Budvar Brewery in České Budějovice (on the CSFR map) and attacking the Anheuser-Busch abomination in St. Louis, Missouri (on the USA Great Lakes map.)

show: conscription
As noted above, conscription will be used:To balance out the difference between the smaller CSFR map and the larger USA Great Lakes map; To replace players who fail to accept invites after games have been created. not be used to replace players who resign or drop out before games have been created. That will be done by curbing the elimination of players who would otherwise have been eliminated by their score.
