There will be only one game at at time, so freemiums are welcome, but you must keep a game slot open for this. If you miss two consecutive invites you will be replaced.
First round:
27 players will each play one 3-player game. Winner of each game advances.

Second round:
The 9 first round winners will each play one 3-player game. Winner of each game advances.

Final round:
The 3 survivors of the second round will play a final 3-player game.
Map: Third Crusade -- lovely graphics, lots of little bonuses, and a genuine strategic challenge.
