Hi all,

we are planning to bring together 2 of the most player drawing formats ever: Nations Cup & Dream Cards :=)

well as most people do not know DC, but still like the challenge of a head to head matches of the Nations Cup, we decided to play a Dream Card Challenge Deck event so it will be NC DCCD

1) Teams will be "true Nations" teams only, mixed teams will only be allowed in rare cases (where 1 player is missing to a team), but please make the effort to defend your Nation's honor.

2) Decks: each team will get 3 different DCCDs in a lottery, 1 of each alignment:
White player (hero, including Lords),
Grey players (Balrogs, Dragon-lords or non-Sauron allied War-lords),
Dark-player (Ringwraiths or Sauron alignment)
Team choose then which of their players plays which deck for the entire event.

3) Format: all games will be X-alignment pairings, if possible these will be paired 1st: so games of the same alignment will not be happening too likely (so even if white player vs white players can occur it will be Lords of a different races match-ups for these game)
So captains will not always meet each other each round. Still the captain's performance will be the tiebreaker (in these rarely needed ties)

4) Number of teams: we have 22 (25 are in the import section) decks ready so 6 teams can easily be equipped, in the rare case of 7-8 team 2 more DCCD will be finished no problem, so we do not have any byes

5) 3 Rounds will be played, lasting 10 days unless all matches finish earlier.
After that we go into Semi-final mode (for semifinals) deck can be switched (only deck not taken by others, but this will also be held in a lottery, so you might end up worse)

Please teams use the poll & sign up in here, but please no discussions in here, there will be another post for that

Team Flying Dutchmen is present. If you don't mind I borrow Bert from Flaneltina, Marcos. :wink:
We will find a third person, if I have to teach my grandma meccg myself!

since no preparation is needed other than exploring the deck, time consumption is limited, so 1 game a week should be doable whenever, hopefully.

Well I am hoping

donepi & Mados to form the core of a spanish team, so stay tuned

So I believe we are having 12 players after all:

I am proposing we use these 12 decks:

6 White-players (Heros & Lords):
DCCD - Dunadan-lord - Denethor - Captains of Gondor
DCCD - Dwarf-lord - Dain - King under the Mountain
DCCD - Dwarf-lord - Thrain - Last of the Seven
DCCD - Elf-lord - Cirdan - Keeper of the Passage AV
DCCD - Elf-lord - Thranduil - Protector of Greenwood
DCCD - Man-lord - Theoden - A Grim Morn and a Golden Sunset

3 Dark-players:
DCCD - Minion - Avatarless - A Few Trusty Lads
DCCD - Minion - The Necromancer - Rings of Power
DCCD - Ringwraith - The Witch-king - Angmar Arises

3 Grey-players:
DCCD - Balrog - Felagrog - Lord and Usurper
DCCD - Dragon-lord - Smaug - The Golden
DCCD - Minion - War-lord - Ardagor - Terror of Cardolan AV

each team will be given 3 random decks from this list (but not team will get more than 2 lords or 1 of the other two types)
or would you guys rather have all 20 decks in the lottery (the same aligment giving rules apply)?

yours Nicolai
