Each player in a group will play each other group member twice; this means each player will play eight games, two on each of the four maps mentioned above. The top two players in each group will qualify for the second round.
Round Two: The remaining 16 players will be divided into 4 groups of 4 players each. Each group will bear the name of one of Napoleon's brothers: Joseph, Lucien, Louis, Jerome. Each player in a group will play each other group member twice; this means each player will play six games, two each on three of the maps mentioned above, with France 1789 being the exculded map. The top two players in each group will qualify for the third round.

Each player in a group will play each other group member twice; this means each player will play six games, two each on three of the maps mentioned above, with France 1789 being the exculded map. The top two players in each group will qualify for the fourth round.
Fourth Round: The remaining 4 players will form the Napoleon I group. Each player in a group will play each other group member twice; this means each player will play six games, two each on three of the maps mentioned above, with France 1789 being the exculded map. The top two players will qualify for the Final.
The Final: The final will consist of 12 games, three on each of the four maps mentioned at the start. In case of of a tie, a three-out-of-five run-off will be played on the Napoleonic Europe 1812 map. The winner will receive the title of "Empereur".

Total games: 256 (plus 3 to 5 final run-off games if neccessary).
Please indicate your interest below. I am looking for 40 interested players plus 10 alternates. This will be a fun, tournament with a great theme and unique, round-robin play, so that the winners will not be determined simply be the luck of one drop or the knowledge of one map. I hope you all join!
Please reply on this thread to let me know if you are interesed. I will confirm when you are added, and which initial group you belong to.
Thanks,
Raskholnikov.
