Achievement/escalation league starting in York on Feb 27th

[Guild Monkee]

I'll be running a league at York Garrison starting on Feb 27th and running for 6 weeks. The format of the league is a slightly odd one in that it is an achievement based league with elements of escalation. The idea is that it will be that players will 'level up' each week and unlock a new list of possible achievements. The rules pack isn't online yet as my broadband is currently broken (hopefully I'll be able to get it up tomorrow) but all you'll need to know for week 1 is that crew selection is limited to a starter box (plus totem if they're not included).

Cost is £3 per player with 100% going into the prize pot.

This will be a beginner friendly event so please feel free to pop along if you're new to the game.

Further details can be found on the York Garrison forum (http://yorkgarrison.co.uk/index.php/forum7?view=topic&catid=38&id=8702&start=6#8763).

Looks good. Think ill be taking the keeping it real idiot edition seeing as how i have enough crews now. Damn you and being such a good henchman

Are we restricted to a faction for the duration? Also are games only counted on garrison nights? Also by playing a new opponent is that a new player during the league? As im sure we have all played each other by this stage with the exception of carl?

Are you going to be posting a league tabel? If you want i can do that on here if i can get a copy of the scores?
