yeah i will play. undecided about what general
either china nuke, or good old GLA demolition

Giles @ supply drop zone spam :D but I thinks giles is waiting to see if you ban rush Oric :P
I think allowing rush may make it more interesting, seems the people who have played the game a lot before all tend to play no rush so it might give us a challenge to think up some good rush/counters???? But then again some people will get lol rolled in like 5mins so may take most of the "FUN" out of the game

Im in but i need to learn to play

Need noob rules applied before I play otherwise the skill gap is too far.

Marshy - do you have it?
If so - Just shout if you want me to show you the rules in a newbie-friendly environment.

Im only the us laser so that everytime i use ma super weapon i can go

IMA FIRIN MA LAZAR BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARKGH

Chances are that SW in general will be banned, except for China where they are needed for upgrades, but must be sold when done. Still no decision on a 'no rush' rule yet, but expect rulings on both in the next few days.

Updated list to here. Looking to start the tournament sometime next week (maybe Monday or Teusday for evening play), so begin to start selecting your armies. Thusly, I have made the decision to go with US Air Force General.

Right then Oric. Try and bomb me when you can't see me =D

- I think that rush should be decided upon at the start of a round.

That's what I was thinking, but we must set a default in case the two players can't agree. Whether to give the 'home' player the full choice or have a full agreement or no rush rule - it weighs up between the benefit for the lower-skilled vs. the practicality, enforcability and usefulness of such as rule. SW's at this juncture are 99% likely of getting disallowed for the tourney. Just as an aside, the current ban list only contains SW General and GLA Demo General Demobikes.

Default should be no-rush.

OK - the following decisions have been made and will be added to the rulebook in due course.

Spoiler:

1) Superweapons are BANNED. The only exception to this is for upgrades to units, and it must be sold straight afterwards. Anyone who does not comply with this rule the first or second time will be DQ'ed for the match. Anyone who subsequently breaks the rule a third time will be subject to review as to whether they should be removed from the tournament.

2) I have decided that the 'rush rule' will take the following form. By default, the rule will take the form of '10 minute no rush'. This means that there may be no attacks on the main base of a player within the first 10 minutes of gameplay. Attacks on central resources and other bases created (such as barracks on your oil derrick) are still allowed. As with the cash rule, if both players agree to a difference to this default, then that decision will take precedent over the default, but if one player disagrees with the changes, then the 10 minute rule will remain.

Also, in order for this to be fairly done, where possible, a third member of the community (most likely Piers or myself) will watch the match and ensure the full no rush timer is followed. They will give warnings at 5 minutes left, 1 minute left, 30 seconds left, 10 seconds left and no-rush expired. You may, of course, play without a watcher (matches with insta-rush allowed will not require one), but in the case of a disputed result or complaint about the rush rule not being observed, you risk being asked to do a re-match or both being credited with a loss for the match.

EDIT - Full ruleset can be downloaded HERE

lol you bothered to put up a full rule set to download Oric, how many rules have you made? :D

Is Zero Hour unbalanced or something? What's the point of no rush?
