Good evening,

in less than 4 hours season XII gonna start.

The rules aren't uptodate yet and will be updated over the weekend. Until it is done please refer to the following changes for SXII:



SuperFinals:
Ghost Recon Team: saturday, 7th january 2006
Raven Shield Team: sunday, 8th january 2006

The top 4 clans that have played at least 15 cbs/TEAM ladder throughout the season, qualify for the SuperFinals. If not enough clans meet the requirements the SuperFinals for this ladder will be cancelled.

In each TEAM ladder you have to play and submit at least 3cbs against 3 different clans within the first 3 weeks(deadline sunday 12th december), otherwise your clan will be removed from the related ladder. So register and start cbing as soon as possible.

GameSpecific rules:

For AA rules please take a look at this thread:
AA rule set SXII.
Due the lack of rule feedback, the rules may consider the latest AA versions. You are free to change the rules and or add your own rulesets to this thread, until we add a final version to the *DBL rules.

Ghost Recon:

TEAM and CQB ladder: in addition to the etablished gametypes you can also choose the WAR gametype(now available at the Mac Downloads).

With the following settings(both ladders):
Game length: 5 mins
Respawns: 10
Invulnerability: 5 secs

Further the CQB cb lenght has been reduced to Best of 5(first to 3 wins) and the TEAM cb length from Best of 8 to Best of 6(first to 4 wins). For the SuperFinals the length stays at Best of 8.

Ghost Recon FFA:

Game Rules: SHARPSHOOTER, LMS, Hamburger Hill
Respawns: INFINITE or 3 respawns for lms
Kit Restrictions: All variations other than no-restrictions.

The host may decide to make the whole cb a particular game type or kit restriction for the entire FFA match - which should read on his/her room as e.g. "FFA MATCH - SHARPSHOOTER- PISTOLS ONLY" In this case the loser of each round can only choose the next map.

Raven Shield, BF and FtF game settings stay unmodified.



Last but not least I would like to welcome 2 new admins: joeboy and Spetznaz.

Good luck to everyone and have a fun season!

Yours,

*DAMN Mauti and the *DBL Administration
