Outline:
Two players sign up as one team
Bracket(s) will be setup
Single elimination (1 game or best of 3 series will be determined)
Fan created maps only - will not be given out in advance to make games interesting so players can not prepare
Winning 2v2 team will have a choice between 3 prizes: Sealed Pre 9/11 box copy of RA2, Tibieran Sun Soundtrack, Sealed Havoc Action Figure
All of the details, such as Renguard, are not worked out, since this is still just an IDEA and is not actually an event yet.
I believe I've hit 3 of the most active forum communities (excluding CW) with this thread already. There have been some people that appeared to be interested.
Feedback?

Renegade is a strategy game, to be able to define some kind of strategy, you need to at least not get lost on the map.
You could at least give out a list of all maps between which you will choose maps so people can explore them + you'll be sure the players actually have the maps.
And you could call it luck but if you put me on a fanmap I played several times and i know how to move from the tunnels in an enemy building whereas the enemy gets lost in the buildings, then is it a fair match? Then is it a good game? then is it fun? No: too easy for one team, impossible for the other team.
You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

I was thinking that fanmaps would be a good idea until I read this. Some of the fanmaps aren't very linear and someone could go in the complete opposite direction of the other teams base.. rofl..
/me goes to go play in LAN 1 player games with the uber mappack now..

Describe the meaning of a lot of people? I don't see more than 2-3 servers running ANY fan maps that regularly get a fair amount of players on them. If you don't like the tournament you don't have to play. I have played against Clanwars players before, this is the fairest way to do any AOW tournament. Even when Clanwars would do their 1v1 2v2 3v3 tournaments, there were already one of two possible winners picked out that always ended up winning. Fan maps make the tournament interesting, makes everyone think in a different way. A common map tournamnet would be a total waste of time.
If you'd like to prove me wrong, go get a few friends, practice a strategy on a particular map, go to the Clanwars.cc forums and challenge anyone there. You will get massacred.
