Greetings Tactical,
For the first time since I joined the UFP, Starfleet Tactical is now happy to announce that we will be hosting the first Annual Bridge Commander tournament! This tournament will be focused around standard deathmatch, with players fighting to get as many points and kills as possible to become the overall victor. The tournament itself will run through the first half of December, with the first round being held on December 4th. The sign-ups close 3 weeks from today, November 28th, but do bare in mind this isn't necessary but is aimed at getting a general idea for the numbers that will attend.
The tournaments overall structure will be decided on the first event, based on the people who actually turn up - this was decided because there has been a long history of people signing-up then letting their team down constantly. If you are going to attend, please come to the first even and be there for your team. If your team is not participating, you are not obligated to stay but you must turn up to the events that your team is taking part in. With this tournament, you will most likely be needed every event but keep an eye out for more information and come to the first event, where everything will be explained!
As this is the first time this is being run, everything in this thread is subject to change - please keep an eye out on anything further posts on this thread, or private messages. The game will be played using the BASE install of Bridge Commander, so please make sure you have a install of Bridge Commander WITHOUT the Kobayashimaru Mod installed - you can do this by looking at the setup thread, simply install BC without the Kobayashimaru mod and you'll be good to go!
Sign-up thread is HERE.
Setup thread for Bridge Commander is located HERE. This will be tested prior to the first event on Windows 10 to make sure it is up and running.
Alongside the text description below, verbal explanation will occur prior to the start of the first round on Sunday December 4th.
TEAM TOURNAMENT
The team tournament will be focused around at least 3 teams of 3, but will change based on the number of people that signup to the event, but in the event that not enough people sign up for the team tournament, a solo tournament will take place instead. The team tournament will be focused around each team playing two 10 minute matches, where the teams have to rack up as many points / kills as they can within the time limit, overall winner of the tournament will be the team which consistently do well. There will be two rounds of matches, where by the end of the second round the team with the least points will be knocked out and will not proceed to the final - details of which will be released at a later date. The first round will be held on December 4th and the second on December 11th, with the final being the following week - December 18th.
With the team tournament, the players will be limited by ships, each taskforce will consist of 1 Galaxy-class starship, 1 Nebula-class science vessel and 1 Ambassador-class heavy cruiser. Do bare in mind which Captain takes command of the Ambassador, this class of ship is old and thus weak in comparison to the other starships in your fleet, be sure to protect her and use tactics to get the best of the opposing taskforce.
Note: Description of Solo tournament contained within spoiler - will only take place if there is not enough for a team based tournament.
THE SYSTEMS
Note: Map name and description will be provided prior to the end of sign-ups. Bare in mind, you won't need to download any additional maps nor will the maps be significantly different.
VICTORY PRIZES
Both the solo (if played) and team tournaments will contain the same prize pool. Each member of the team, or solo winner, will receive the following:
- The team/player that achieves overall victory will all be awarded with the Combat Readiness Medal, if not already on the member's medal roster.
- Unique Legendary Achievement "You Are The Bridge" awared to each member of the winning team OR the "Champion of the Bridge" for the solo victor (if solo is played - names are subject to change).
- The winners will be able to display "Winner of 2016 Bridge Commander Tournament" on their signature - there won't be a time limit for displaying this.
Every participant of the tournament will receive the Uncommon Achievement "You Have The Bridge", so long as you turn up to every round of the tournament - unless you notify me of a valid reason for not turning up.
ANY QUESTIONS?
Please feel free to contact me via private message on the forums.

Bridge Commander you say?
Hmmm....
Anyone know where I might obtain a *ahem* download of said title... I fear my CD ROM of the game has gone to meet it's digital maker and alas online services like Steam and GoG don't have it. Would be a shame to miss out! Presume this is stock Adster, I still remember all the hilarious balance issues and stability problems we played using KM.
Btw, slight off topic... but whatever happened to that total conversion mod that was slated for release a couple years back? They were totally overhauling the game engine etc I don't recall what it was called but I think they ran into a few issues the guys making it were juggling uni studies too I think which is never usually a good thing (3rd year is a bitch).

First round of the first Bridge Commander tournament starts at 20:00UFP today! Starfleet finest will be gathering for these war games, be sure to bring your best crew to this fight. As the wargames are safe, civilians will be permitted to stay on their respective starship. This should at all times be treated as a combat drill, make sure all your department heads are aware of the rules in place. Briefing will commence from 19:00 onwards.
