2. One entry per person per catagory. Entrant must
include a valid address and phone number along with their entry.
This information will be kept confidential, but will be used
to verify the identity of the author. Entrant should also include
a valid email address if possible so that they can be contacted
by the contest staff.
3. All entries must be written by the person submitting
them. Submitting a work that is not yours will result in immediate
disqualification.

5. All submissions
will be posted on ClanWar.com and all members of the ClanWar-l list will vote for
which scenario they prefer. Voting will end on Midnight (EDT),
August 7th, 2001. The scenario with the most votes (in each
catagory if applicable) will be the winner. In the case of a
tie, contest staff reserves the right to select a winner based
on playability, detail and creativity.
6. Winners will receive $50 in AEG merchandise, which
will be shipped directly to their address as submitted with their
entry.
7. All submissions remain the property of the authors,
However, submission of a scenario to the contest indicates willingness
to grant ClanWar.com unlimited use of the scenario for
promoting Clan War and/or ClanWar.com on
the web. ClanWar.com and/or AEG may not
publish these scenarios in any other form without the express,
written permission of the author, nor may ClanWar.com
and/or AEG charge any money for these scenarios
without the express written permission of the author. Submission
also indicates a willingness to grant visitors to ClanWar.com
permission to download the scenario for personaly use only.
Rules for Scenario Content:
1. Scenarios should be for two players, and must include
"suggested" army lists. The lists must also include
suggested tactical decks as well. The author should include notes
for custom armies as required (army composition limits or whatever
else). Armies do not have to have a specific value, but should
be approximately 2000 koku (more or less as required). Armies
do not have to have the same koku value, if dictated by the scenario.
No army should be over 3000 koku. Standard profiles from published
AEG material need not be included in the scenario
submission.
2. Custom personalities are allowed. However,
if a custom personality is unbalancing, it will cause the scenario
to be judged poorly by the list members, and may result in the
scenario being disqualified in extreme cases. All decisions of
the contest staff are final in this regard, so keep it sane.
Any custom personalities must have full profiles included in
the scenario.
3. All scenarios must have a description or illustration
of the table setup. The Table should be a maximum size of 4x6
feet or 4x8 feet, but exceptions can be made for particular historical
scenarios. A map would be best, but a detailed description will
do. However, if you give a description then be advised that it
will be turned into a map when the scenario is posted, and if
it now what you have envisioned then you may be less than pleased
and once a scenario is posted, that is your entry. Any special
terrain rules must also be included. The contest staff also reserves
the right to modify any supplied graphic for aesthetic presentation/publication
reasons at their discretion.
4. Historical scenarios should include an introductory
section describing the background of the scenario and detailing
the event the scenario is attempting to model, as well as indicating
if the scenario is from the Clan War story arc or the
Hidden Emperor story arcs.
4a. Encounter scenarios are eincouraged to include
an introductory section describing the evens leading up to this
encounter, if applicable. If the scenario is generic, then some
description of how the "suggested" armies arrived at
the battle will suffice.
5. The contest staff reserves the right to reject any
entry due to objectionable language or content. Entries will
be posted on a public web page representing Clan War
so please keep that in mind while creating your entry.
