All games 1v1
Welcome to the NFL history tournament. The first season did take place in 1920 but there were not enough teams (14) to meet Conquer Club tournaments rules so we started with the 1921 season.
1921 - Cincinnati Celts (HighlanderAttack)
1922 - Columbus Panhandles (agentcom)
1923 - Milwaukee Badgers (Graceless_)
1924 - Cleveland Bulldogs (whydelilah)
1925 - Detroit Panthers (PereiroSaus)
1926 - Boston Bulldogs (Graceless_)
After 1926, financial prudence saw only the strongest teams survive and the NFL ran for the the next ten years the league ran with 10 teams or less.
The 1936 season saw the arrival of a second rival league, the 5 team American Football League, known as AFL (2) in the record books. An extra team was added for 1937 giving us the 16 teams we need for a tournament.
So, you get to choose which league you want to play in. If you pick an AFL team, you will play home and away against the other five teams in the league. In the real world, not all the teams in the AFL completed their schedules so you will follow a made up schedule with five games at home and five games away.
The NFL was by 1937 more established and teams were now completing their schedules. They actually played 11 games in 1937 so one game has been removed from every team's schedules to match the 10 games being played by the AFL. Three other fixtures have been adjusted to make sure everyone has five home and five away games.
Adjustments aside, you will follow the actual schedule that was played in 1937.
For the NFL, the winners of the East Division will play the championship game against the winners of the West Division, the game being played on the map and settings of the team with the better record.
The top two teams in the AFL will also meet in a championship game, the team finishing first having home advantage.
The winners of both leagues will then meet in Conquer Bowl II. That game will be played on the random map setting, auto, seq, flat, chain, fog, no trench, 20 round limit.
Pick your home map and settings. Any map is allowed and the only settings not being allowed are freestyle and trench, you can have anything else. There will only be 1 game per fixture, not best of 3 so bad drop, bad dice = bad luck. You lose.
There is a restriction of each game having to be completed within 12 rounds, game goes beyond round 12 and the game is declared a tie for tournament purposes so choose your home map carefully. Tied games were not officially counted in the standings in the NFL until 1972. The league table is decided by your win-loss percentage. A team with less wins than you can technically finish above you with this rule.
Games will be sent out in batches of 3 or 4 at a time, so tournament is not open to freeium players.
