Map Vetoes and Faction Selection

Game 1: As mentioned before, the coin is tossed. The winner has their pick of map or side (Axis or Allies), while the loser has what remains. The map is then picked first. Then the sides and factions.



Game 2: The teams switch sides and play on the same map.



Game 3: The loser of the coin toss picks side or map, just like the winner did in Game 1.



Game 4: The teams switch sides and play on the same map as game 3.



Game 5: The team with the greatest number of victory points from games 1-4 picks their side. (Victory points from a defeat do NOT count.) If by some miracle, the VPs are tied, then the teams will toss a coin. The winner picks their side. The map will be the highest listed one which hasn't been played yet. The list is found further below.

Team A & team B:

Team A wins the coin toss and chooses Vaux Farmlands as the map, then team B picks Axis before the factions are picked.

Game 2, team A and B switch sides.

In game 3, team B, as the losers of the coin toss, chooses to pick Axis once again. Leaving the map choice to team A, who decide on the map Elst Outskirts.

Game 4: The teams switch sides yet again.

Game 5: The VP leader, in this case A, are assholes and chooses Axis. Much to the frustration of team B. The map will Crossing in the Woods, as it is the second in the list. Elst Outskirts being first, with Vaux at the bottom.

A big thank you to Qvazar for making a 2v2 version! The link to the battleplanner app will be added later, it is almost finished!The battleplanner app will use the following rules.First, the teams will do a coin toss on the battleplanner. The winner of may either pick the map or the side (Axis or Allies). Obviously, the loser gets the remaining option. Before picking the sides and then the factions, the teams will pick the map.Remember to tally your victory points from every win. Losses doesn't count. This will be used for game 5 if the match lasts that long.An important thing to know is that you can only see if your opponent picked Allies or Axis. You can't see the actual factions that your enemy is playing with until everybody chose their factions in the battleplanner. In this way we can assure that people will not just counter pick certain factions.An example:The order of the maps here is also how the maps will be seeded in the battleplanner.The winners of a match must upload all games and link them into this thread .
