I'd like to introduce a new event to the CC5 community called Clash of Steel.
What is Clash of Steel exactly? It is a mixture of ladder play and tournaments
that involve head to head tank battles.
I developed Clash of Steel with the idea in mind of having some sort of short
competitive event for those who do have a lot of time for a lengthy game, or want
to fill in time while waiting to participate in a group GC.
Clash of Steel uses maps and tanks from the GJS (v4.4) CC5 modification, and each
match is set for 5 minutes of furious WWII tank warfare. The tournament theme
is that of a German Panzer soldier, who works his way up from a lowly driver to
the ultimate Panzer Commander.
Clash of Steel offers the opportunity to prove your worth as a tank fighter
by ladder play, as well as tournament championships. Decorations are rewarded
to members who excel in this event. You are not required to play a minimum number
of games, which allows you to fit games in when you have time.
The Clash of Steel event has officially launched today! So if you are interested
in joining the fun, then sign up to become a member. The current site is located
here http://www.geocities.com/cc5_clashofsteel/ and you can also access the forum here http://41.freebb.com/clashofsteel/for more information.
In August of 2004, Zappi, Homba, Bambam887, RedScorpion and MOOXE all pitched
in to create this Close Combat site. I would to thank all the people who have visited
and found this site to thier liking. I hope you had time to check out some
of the great Close Combat mods and our forums. I'd also like to thank
all the members of our volunteer staff that have helped over
the years, and all our users that contributed to this site!
