Now that the teams are set up, the games can begin.

All three of your team members have been given access to this hidden forum. You now have 2 days to discuss naming conventions for the units, "chain of command", how things will work, and all those kinds of things. It is advised to agree how often you will try to put turns in, and how much discussion will be had beforehand.

At the end of this period, Fuzzywinker will send the random challenge which starts the match.

When the map is known, players must decide which race their team will play (Marines or Machina) and which units each player will command.
They must also decide where their units will be deployed, and where the two HQ units will be deployed. As it's an HQ match, this will be very important.
Players are encouraged to name their units, and provide Fuzzywinker with details of which units are which.
There is a three day limit to this discussion period.

After sending their deployments to Fuzzywinker, the match will begin. Each team is free to choose when to put their orders in. Remember that you can choose to put "no orders" in for a player if you have to. It is not permitted for a player to submit orders on the behalf of another player.

See the "how things work" thread for details of how to submit your deployments, and orders.


To clarify:


21st November : Challenge will be sent and game begins
then: discussion period
24th November : Deadline for players to submit their deployments


After the challenge has been sent and the map is known, all players will need to tell Fuzzy
for each player: email address to send results to
for each team: what race they want to play
for each team: which player gets to place the two HQs


Please email him at XXXXXXXXXX


Note that when you make your deployments, the units names that you use will be preserved in the game.
