Each round is a 4-player group stage (players play their 3 opponents twice - 6 games each per stage in total). The top two players from each group progress. In the case of players having equal number of wins then there will be a one-off tie-break to determine who progresses (except in the final where there will be a 3-game play-offs). If more than 2 players have equal number of wins then all concerned players will play each other (if this does not produce a winner then the player with most number of troops at the end of games will progress, except in the final where all players will continue to play tie-breaks until there is a winner).
