D&D 5e PVP Arena w/ Teams

I have been watching a lot of competitive gaming recently. The interest for strategic gaming is usually quite expensive with Tabletop War Gaming, so I was interested in getting something to work with the newly released 5th Edition of D&D using two instances of Roll20 blinded to the opposite team and recorded and edited for entertainment value. This style will involve narration, but little/no story, and will be standardized for fairness. Much like competitive gaming maps, the ones used will be symmetrical and large enough to house unique combats in multiple locales. Teams of various sizes, probably 2v2 to start (depending on interest), will be used and organized to be synergistic. I believe I will have characters at level 1 for the first season to bring more entrants, then raise the level as seasons pass to allow for deeper tactical gameplay. Keep in mind that any and all matches will have to take place at a time where not only all competitors can be online, but I as well. My availability, for the most part, is after 7PM EST/ 1900 EST (GMT-5:00). My availability is a little wider on Thur/Fri/Sat, and those are going to be my preferred days to run games. Add me on Skype: Kanonkross if interested. Please send the word "arena" so I know why you added me. So, for consolidation of info -- Team Size: 2 Level: 1 Stats: Standard Array Races: PHB Classes: PHB Equipment/Gold: Standard for character creation rules. Character Mode: Ironman (Same character throughout entire season) Campaign Link: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/join/529244/axLX7w" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/join/529244/axLX7w</a> **NOTE: You will be making your own characters. I recommend owning the book or PDF of the Player's Handbook, because I will only be assisting in Character Generation for Season 1, and that is because many are new to the system. I will not replace having the necessary resources to play, however. ** I will review all character entries for fairness and restrict your info from all but your own team. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to reply here or ask on Skype. As Seasons go by and more tools are needed to run complex games, I will be updating the campaigns over time. Below is a log of what I have completed so far. Season 1 - Version 0.1a ** Update - Campaigns 'Of Trophies And Shadows' and 'Of Shadows And Trophies' set up with 2 maps each. **

Campaigns are up. Will set a schedule when the requisite number of players have submitted approved characters.

Sounds interestering.

I have decided that forcing people to be on teams with other people is not the best way to start off, so if a player wants to make 2 characters and control both, I am willing to work with that as well.

... Details or campaign link?

Hey everyone. The game is starting tomorrow at 4:00 PM EST (16:00 EST) and I want you all thinking about potential characters to be playing. You will all be paired with another player unless we come just short of the 16-player count, in which a few will play as 2 characters in their own stable. Keep in mind as well that this is Season 1. Not all things will go smoothly. Not everyone will "get it" immediately. As much as I want to put in strict turn timers (3-4 minutes) some players are new and would need more time. There is going to be some tactical advice I will be giving out tomorrow that pertains to the arena maps (doors/corners/sight/stealth). See you all there!
