Council of Elrond

Hey, I like these short game-descriptions! Let's keep that up

Hi! What is going with Tournament? Maybe Captain should switch missing player and play rest of Team games?

Looks like Holger and I will attemp an early (depending on where you are) 0600/0700 GMT game tomorrow. I'm subbing in for Angblung using the Balin DCCD.

Hi,

thank you Will that you play for the Argentina-Team.
It was a nice game. The Avatars were deep in the deck. My avatar comes in the 3. turn und Will's avatat in 4. turn. Really late especially for the sideboard.
My Hazards didn't work, of course, but my resourcedeck was fast because Balin and the dwarves run into the dungeon. I had luck with my dices against his mens.

Argentina - Austria 0-6 (8-40)

Hi all,

since all games that could have been played are done now, I will call it a finished 1st round

the last game for Argentina is sadly forfeit 0:6 for Austria.

from here on I will play all of asathor's games until we get the missing player

I know summer is coming up, so is Europeans I still hope all of you will have time to finish the next round quickly

let's see the next 4 weeks should be okay the sooner the better of course, after that I hope to have the missing player we need . . .

So look forward in getting your next round assignment

I just realized, was Gothmog vs Qapla ever played?

if yes let me know the result guys, or am I just to blind to find in in this post?

yours Nicolai

We did not play yet. We have little probles with game coordination.

I am proud to annouce that with all the hassle the server was giving us, the numbers of players is even again

Bruno de Lucia is replacing Asathor so he will in person talk to wolfgang if they want to finish or replay the 1st round game (which I ruled in favor of Austria due to lack of players) or if we welcome Bruno to the start of round 2

yours Nicolai

P.s. the new region maps work 90%

Hi all,

well due to many reasons, such as server issues, the last missing game for the 1st round will be a draw between Qapla and Gothmog

I will have 2nd round pairings ready ASAP

yours Nicolai

@ Marcos get ready to help Bruno become your last team mate

Standings after round 1:

Holger with Dragon-lord - Daelomin - Court of the Sorceress Queen vs Balin Dwarf-lord played by wild1 6: 0

dude, are you sure you can add?

6-0 + 6-0 + 2-4 = 14-4

anyways, if this tourney is not taking a better dynamism in my oppinion it is better to postpone the whole thing until we have enough people to play. I am not willing to play another round in 2-3 months, even tough i know that the main reasons for the delay were my teammates, but still there was some other game that took too long to schedule and be played, and still it wasn't even played!

I already added everything but the my laptop froze and everything was lost

I redo it any minute

For our last missing game we Qapla & Gothmog decided on a draw as all kinds of junk got in the way of finishing

Standings after 1st round

1st) Austria 14 TPs
2nd) Spain 11 TPs (Captain Mados scored 3 TPs)
3rd) Poland 11 TPs (Captain Kufel scored 2 TPs)
4th) The Netherlands 7 TPs (Captain Adanedhel scored 4 TPs)
4th) Germany 7 TPs (Captain Vastor scored 3 TPs)
5th) Argentina 4TPs (Captain Marcos scored 4 TPs)

so 2nd round looks as follows:

Beornd (cap)- Smaug - The Golden vs Mados (Cap) - Elf Lord Cirdan, Keeper of the Passage
Thorondor with Dunadan-lord - Denethor - Captains of Gondor vs NightLord - War-Lord Ardagor, Terror of Cardolan
Holger with Dragon-lord - Daelomin - Court of the Sorceress Queen vs donepi - Dunadan Lord Imrahil, Leader of the Faithful

yours Nicolai

all X-alignment lotteries were done on GCCG witnessed by peibol

Hi all,

Karmi vs me will be Monday night 19.00 Germany (CET +1) 20.00 finnland

yours Nicolai

Hi all,

in a really tight game karmi beat me 25:22

the last turn he threw 2 or 3 tribes present on poor khamul & uvatha who then had to wade through drake blood, and even forced marched their way to another site, just to realize that 2 or 3 tribes present was still in effect to face even more drakes,

I had a Black rain & dragon faction in hand and karmi even had a character in hand but sadly my only sage needed to tap to get rid of Earth-tremors which cancels Forced March in DC (check its errata) so I had no sage untapped for it

well I hope my team mates will do better

yours Nicolai
