The protracted fighting between the Empire and the Survilurgs’ armies was imminently heading towards one hundred days mark. At the time of the first onslaught no one could have imagined that they would develop into one of the most continuous conflicts of present age, but the enemy's persistence in attacking strategic facilities was astonishing. By present time, the military clans already managed to adapt to the unexplained foe and to minimise the loss of their territories.
Nonetheless, the more days the confrontation lasted, the more distinctly Grammith could distinguish a certain troublesome feeling pending in the air. Perhaps, no one except the warlord would notice it, but it kept him uneasy. Hearing daily reports on the stagnant military situation, and personally making rounds on the battlefields, he could not help observing the growing tension. Those looks, those grimaces - emotions filled his disciples threatening to splash out in a most distressing form... Not that they weren't fighting for their lands in the wake of the Empire as bravely as before, but consumptive combats, days-long vigilance, frequent sacrifices of own armies in clan's interests - all that contributed to cumulating strain, and its escalation wasn't too far off. There was an urgent need to organise something that would unite them and promote team spirit, and Grammith knew that the most efficient solution to that would be a Paired tournament.
Lords and ladies, the 8th Paired tournament has been announced. The grounds of its arena await all heroes of combat level 3 and above willing to participate in a team contest of 2x2 combats as both random and preset team credits. Victorious combats in the tournament grant Commanders' guild points. The winners on every level and in each credit will traditionally split up the main prize fund and will be honoured to receive related tournament achievements. |
