Asphelite presents: AERIAL COMBAT CHAMPIONSHIP SEASON 2024 "You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor." Aristotle Dear fighter pilots and friends - Welcome back to the second season of Aerial Combat Championship! About a year ago, this tournament ran for the first time - with lots of success and amazing battles. Thanks again to all of you for attending and participating, supporting and submitting feedback throughout the season. Without you, this tournament would not exist or go for the second round. If you see this tournament for the first time, maybe you want to check out last seasons thread? Alright, lets cut right to it shall we? GENERAL INFORMATION The ACC Discord-Server serves as the main source of information as well as the means for organizing each element during the tournament. Please join the server for everything important via the link below: -> Discord Invite Link <- Discord Server Membership is required for a valid sign-up. Format and Structure All the important things in short: - PvP - 6v6 - Best of 3 - BVR - NoAWACS - Qualifiers followed by a Double Elimination Format Aerial Combat Championship (ACC) is a 6 versus 6, NoAWACS, BVR tournament focused solely on the competitive PvP aspect of DCS. Unlike other tournaments, its combat zone is rectangular (see Discord maps-setup section). A maximum of 16 teams may sign up for the tournament. This year, due to timely constraints, the tournament will not feature a group phase. If Season 2025 takes place, we will go back to the original format - or something even better! The 'Qualifiers' will be a randomized One-Time Match - This means we will have 8 winners and 8 loosers of said matches, setting the initial 'splits' for the following Double Elimination Phase. Please refer to the discord within the next few days of this post being released for more details. Restrictions Airframe Restrictions: - Modern airframes only - No FC3 what-so-ever!

(No restrictions) Sign Ups You can only sign up via the Discord linked above. Sign ups are open from 1st to 22nd of November, with minor extension at the ready if not all 16 Team Spots are taken. (Note: It is possible to launch the tournament with less teams, though it is suboptimal) If all spots have been filled, your team may sign up as a backup, in case a team needs to bail. (Stuff like that can happen, you know how reallife can get in the way...) Scheduling The initial schedule will include default dates, however everyone is free to negotiate a more fitting date and time as long as such a rescheduling is within the rules of the tournament. Qualifiers: 3 weeks to complete all 8 matches (one match per team) - yes its tight but hopefully to be completed in December. (No issue delaying if needed) Elim. Phase: 2-3 Months "as fast as possible" - Starting in January. Prizes Currently, there are no prizes - you fight for fun and honor. Honor and Glory - Dignity in Death Further Information - Maps: Caucasus during Qualifiers; Common-Map Pool between teams, with each team receiving one token to spend on choosing a map. See the "SPRINT RULEBOOK" soon to be attached to this thread as well as released on the discord. The weather will also be different to last season! Note: The Sprint Rulebook is created from the original one, but altered to fit this season and format. In short: The rules are basically the same. - There will be 2 dedicated tournament servers. - Matches will be streamed live (if possible).

Air Combat World Series 4v4 BVR Rule Set Hello everyone and welcome to the Air Combat World Series. The ACWS will be holding everything from BVR to BFM competitions with 1v1's, 2v2's and 4v4's and more. The aim is to create a supplementary set of competitions to the already great selection of tournaments available to compete in. The future will see us hopefully develop a full league with ranked teams who can drop up and down divisions from season to season. This means that brand new teams with less experience can compete against others of similar skill levels as they grow from season to season. Once their skill has grown they will move up a division eventually reaching the ACWS Premier Division where they compete against the best you all have to offer! For now we are starting with a 4v4 tournament and how close we come to the finalised idea this season will depend on the number of teams that sign-up. So we are hoping for a lot of you. The 4v4 tournament weapons restrictions are designed to enable the use of of the SU-27 and 33 which has not been able to see much action for a while since the introduction of the SD-10 and new 120's. The Tomcat is also very much redundant in an environment where the use of 120c's and SD-10's are allowed. Restricting Fox 3's down to the 120b may also encourage greater use of the Mirage 2000. We hope these weapons restrictions will increase the variety of airframes in the competition. Prizes are still to be decided but for now until they are confirmed assume its for the pride and glory of winning! We hope to see you all in the discord! Weapons restrictions: 4x Fox 3 any number of Fox 2's. Any Phoenix allowed. Banned Weapons 120c, SD-10. 9x, Talds, A2G weapons. Conditions: - Approximately 60nm radius bubble and on Caucuses map to ensure all teams can take part. - Teams must ready up for take-off and have 20 minutes to do so. - Teams can Engage from the outside of the bubble. - All members of a team must enter the bubble within 10 minutes from take-off. - Once all members are in the bubble teams must gain control of the bubble through the elimination of the opposing team. - Once a team has controlled the bubble for more than 5 minutes they have won the round. - Landing inside the bubble counts as a death. Landing then taking off again inside the bubble will be classed as a rule break. Game play rules: - The use of ECM is banned and it's use will result in a round loss for the offending team. - If any known exploit is found to have been used that round will be lost for the offending team. This includes the AoA roll and any variation of it. - If any exploit comes to be known and has been used in the past then those match results will be amended and the offending team will suffer points loss as well as the the team offended on gain points. - Players can not fly on other competing teams in this competition. Teams found to have shared members will suffer a lost match. - Only registered members of a team can fly on that team i.e. either team members must ask for the team role in Discord or their team representative request it be given to them. - If a team has more than four members they may create A and B teams however competition membership priority will be given to A teams first. Only if there are not enough slots filled will B teams be admitted. A and B teams must be well labelled on the signup page for example **[TFA] Happy Skulls (A Team)** and **[TFA] Fighting Ducks (B Team)**. - So far a maximum of 32 teams will be allowed for sign-up. If there are more then we may be able to form a separate league. - Matches may be streamed and streamers can sign up as streamers for matches once a schedule is released. - Rules may be ammended as and when needed. Sign-ups and competition start date: - Sign-ups open now! - Sign-ups will end the beginning of January and the first matches should take place mid to late January. Sign up Format Example: Team: Task Force Trident Competitive {TFT} Aircraft: F16, F18, F14B. Team Roster: Rage, Orothin, Scotty, Huntress. Play Times: 1800z-2200z Logo: Discord Link: https://discord.gg/hfUMQ9DHdZ Please ensure you join the discord for any further discussion and for future announcements.

Asphelite presents: AERIAL COMBAT CHAMPIONSHIP SEASON 2023 "Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts." Winston Churchill Dear fighter pilots and friends - I am incredibly proud to announce the first instance of this entirely new tournament! Aerial Combat Championship, ACC or AC² for short, is a 6v6, NoAWACS, BVR Tournament created with the intend to provide a new approach to the competitive tournaments, while also enrichening the amount of tournaments available. I will talk about more specific info on how the tourny is set up a bit further down, but first I would like to elaborate on my motivation or why I set out to create this tournament: Flying DCS since early 2021 and competing in the competitive space since joining my squadron in ~August-September 2021, together with OneTrickPony we have been able to compete in numerous events - SATAL and SATAC, TACT and others just to name a few - and sadly had some few bad but mostly a lot of great experiences in these past tournaments. I personally (and my team) often felt like some different or variating modes or setups were missing - so I finally decided to make my run for it. With ACC I am aiming to give everyone a great place and opportunity to have fun in their favorite airframe, while also trying to make it fair. I value good communications and I hope you find that I stand by my word. For me, honest sportsmanlike behaviour is at upmost priority and I expect this from every one of you as well. I am very lucky to have a couple of very experienced pilots from different squadrons help me refine the ruleset I created - and without @vtaf_archer, I dont think that I would have been able to create the many scripts and systems that I initially planned for. Thank you all very much for that You all are incredible people and pilots and I would not be able to bring this tournament to everyone without you. Alright, with all of that being said: Lets get to business, shall we? GENERAL INFORMATION The ACC Discord-Server serves as the main source of information as well as the means for organizing each element during the tournament. Please join the server for everything important via the link below: -> Discord Invite Link <- Please be informed that every detail about the tournament can be found in the Discord and will be explained there in more depth, as well as giving you the opportunity to directly ask questions (ticket system [preferred] or public channel). This forum post serves as a rough overview. Discord Server Membership is required for a valid sign up. Format and Structure Aerial Combat Championship (ACC) is a 6 versus 6, NoAWACS, BVR tournament focused solely on the competitive PvP aspect of DCS. Unlike other tournaments, its combat zone is rectangular (see Discord maps-setup section). A maximum of 16 teams may sign up for the tournament. ACC consists of two phases - a group and an elimination phase. 1) Group phase: The phase consists of two stages, with 4 groups consisting of 4 teams each. Every team plays against each other team in its respective group ("Round Robin"). Group allocation will be random in Stage 1, for Stage 2 there is a fair system in place ensuring compliance with the rest of the rules (see the Discord Ruleset Channels for more detailed information). 2) Elimination phase: This phase consists of two divisions, created from the top 8 and bottom 8 teams at the end of the group phase. Each division plays their own Knockout, so everyone stays in the tournament until their ultimate defeat during the eliminations.
