Contact! - Offseason Battle
The first Contact! Off-season Battle appeared to have been great fun! Now it's time to move ahead and prepare for the 2nd off-season battle!____________________________________________________
PRTA Presents: Contact! Off-season Battle | 1700 UTC, Saturday 25th of April 2020
Contact! - Offseason Battle
How it works
Two commanders will be selected from the Commander sign ups and two teams will be built from individual, group and squad sign ups.
The Commanders will be assigned to a team 2 hours before the scheduled start of the battle. They will be responsible for preparing a deployment plan as well as directing the battle with help of their squad leaders, hopefully promoting both communication and coordination across the whole team.
Only one map will be played out of a pool of 2 maps. This map will be announced to the teams only 2 hours in advance of the battle.
In order to play you can sign up one of three ways: as an individual, as a group of up to 3 men or as a full squad of 6 men plus 2 reserves. Commanders will have the final say on the number of slots for each squad in their Team. More information on sign ups can be found below.
Teamspeak presence on the day of the battle is mandatory. Be present in Battle Waiting Room at least half an hour before the scheduled battle start so that the commanders can inform you of the deployment plan and for the Administration to sort any last minute issues that may arise.
