This first tournament is based on Tábor. The unique aspect of Tábor is the system of tunnels under the city, dating back 500 years or more.

and.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medieval_w ... ge_warfareThough a large part of the ancient fortifications has been demolished, Tábor (or Hradiště Hory Tábor, the castle of the Tábor Hill, as it was called in the Hussite period) still preserves many memorials of its past fame. In the centre of the city is Žižka Square. Only very narrow streets lead to it, to render the approach to it more difficult in time of war. First-time visitors may not even suspect that there is an ingenious labyrinth of tunnels under the houses and streets here. The townspeople dug cellars under their houses and these were subsequently interconnected; an approximately 1 km-long section of the tunnel system is open to the public.
In the Middle Ages, virtually all large cities had city walls — Dubrovnik in Dalmatia is an impressive and well-preserved example — and more important cities had citadels, forts or castles. Great effort was expended to ensure a good water supply inside the city in case of siege. In some cases, long tunnels were constructed to carry water into the city. In other cases, such as the Ottoman siege of Shkodra, Venetian engineers had designed and installed cisterns that were fed by rain water channeled by a system of conduits in the walls and buildings.[13] Complex systems of underground tunnels were used for storage and communications in medieval cities like Tábor in Bohemia. Against these would be matched the mining skills of teams of trained sappers, who were sometimes employed by besieging armies.
Other settings: All games will be Sequential, Automatic, 24-hour, 30-turn limit.
Spoils, Game Type, Fog/No Fog, and Trench/No Trench will vary. Please see the Phase spoilers below for specific details.
Thirty players will be needed for this tournament. When signing up, please indicate your preferred Spoils, Fog status, and Trench Status. You may also choose "no preference" in any or all of these categories.
phase 1 all spoils
When signing up, you have indicated your preference of Fog, No Fog, or "no preference." I will divide the players into a Fog group and a No Fog group, and I will then use "no preference" players to beef up the numbers so that each group forms a multiple of five.
Each group will then be randomized, and you will play four Standard games -- one each of Escalating, Nuclear, Flat Rate, and No Spoils. There will be no trench in this phase.

phase 2 all special play gameplay options
When signing up, you have indicated your preference of Escalating, Nuclear, Flat Rate, No Spoils, or "no preference". I will try as much as possible to create groups of five players for each Spoil preference, using the "no preference" players to beef up the numbers. If I cannot make a group of five for an option, the remaining players may be broken up and placed in other groups. Thus, you are not guaranteed to get your choice of Spoil but I will do my best.
Once the spoil groups are set, you will play four Standard games: one each of
