‘Ola all you pirates, warriors, psychopaths and cannibals
The Black Sails are proud to invite you to the
OPG
Memorial Tournament - 2nd Edition, April 9th 819 AS -
- 18:00 GMT -
It’s that time again. This time you will need to choose a wingman, because it will be a 2vs2 tournament. This time allied factions are also invited: Artisan Farmers Alliance, Nature’s Last Hope and the Black Dragon Society.
Because not all allied ships have permission to enter Omnicron 96 (//not all can enter O96 and land on corsair guard bases in O96) the Tournament will take place at Tripoli Shipyard.
Rules and Regulations:
- Only ships with [TBH], Benitez, HAF, [NLH], [|], [AFA] or |Sails tags can join. The only exceptions are made for the independent Corsair Elders and the members of the Black Sails Privateer Wing who can fly their personal ships
- All fighters and guns are permitted as long as they do not belong to enemies of the Empire and the faction/player has permission to use the respective tech

- Once you come to the location of the event you will not be permitted to change the setup of your ship, so chose wisely

- There will be 3 duels per round and the one who wins 2 is declared the winner. In a 2-0 situation the 3rd duel will be canceled.

COMM ID:Brother Dante 'Ocultado' Castro TARGET:Sails tournament team SUBJECT:My appologies.
I would personally attend this as a contestant were it not for other commitments. Sadly I will be away on business, however I will gladly contribute to the winning pot. I will forward twenty million credits to the overall winners, fifteen million to the second prize winner, and ten million to the third prize winner, after the results have been announced.
I am former OPG myself, serving as one of Gentle's personal guard. This contest has a little emotional attachment for me, and so I support it wholeheartedly. It's a shame such mundane things as work can get in the way...
