Play in the first ever Legends of Middle-Earth tournament this September, and win a prize! To participate, join the Discord linked in the mod's description, and request to be a part of it!

This tournament will be hosted on September 4th, 2020, very soon! Currently, my startup prize reward for the tournament is 50 USD, this may change over time though. This is my first attempt at hosting a tournament, but I am hoping there will be plenty of participants, of which I might be able to cast some of the games once they are finished.
Bear in mind that I will still be rolling out updates from now until the tournament date. It is possible an exploit you were planning on using could be patched, so best to find a good strategy, and try and form some online matches to practice!

RULES
These matches will be a best of 3, 1v1 matches. The pool of players will be thrown in together and randomized. From there it will be a process of elimination to crown a champion. All civs and cultures are currently tournament legal with the exception of Nienna (Hobbits). This may change if I patch Hobbits to work properly, as they are intended.
When choosing a map, the first map of a matchup will be randomized, but the loser of the first match may choose the second map, if they wish.
The following maps are tournament legal:
Harlindon
Himling
Dead Marshes
Mirkwood
Gorgoroth

JOINING
To join, make it known to me here that you are willing to play in the tournament. I will give you a specific tourney special role, which you will keep throughout the run of the tournament. If you want to drop out at any time, just let me know.

WHAT CAN YOU DO?!
I beseech all of you to please spread word of LOME to anyone you think might be interested. I'd really like this to boost the community, and create a strong foundation for the mod. the bigger the turnout, the better! Don't let me down! Now get to training! Time is short!
