Battle for Europe: Call of Duty, the Official Call of Duty 2 tournament, kicked off its 12th campaign today! The German 5th Infanterie-Division, with the 41st Artillerie Regiment and the 75th Infanterie Regiment and the American 45th Thunderbird Divison, with the 442nd Regimental Combat Team and 1st King George's Own Gurkha Rifles Regiment, will be battling it out over the next two months for control of e-Europe.
Battle for Europe was the first tournament to use this innovative multiplayer concept for first-person shooters, in which individual players sign up and are assigned to various armies, regiments, and companies. Over an 8-week campaign, the armies fight on virtual battlefields in Call of Duty 2, Call of Duty and United Offensive in epic 12-hour battles for control of cities. At the end of the campaign, the army holding the most territory wins, and a new campaign begins.
BFE battles are fought on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays, with players rotating in and out of the battle all day. Officers on both Axis and Allies organize battle strategies and coordinate teamwork to achieve their goals. At the end of the day, medals and promotions in rank are awarded to those soldiers who stand out during the battle. Historically-based medals are awarded through the forum system and show up in a member's profile throughout a campaign. A player begins the tournament as a Private or Grenadier, and can advance through the ranks up to General or Commander-in-Chief over several campaigns. Participants can also earn special patches and service awards by participating in various developmental teams within the tournament.
To further enhance the role-playing aspects of the BFE tournament style, custom mods, maps and skins designed specifically for the tournament are used. Battle servers are located in both the United States and the United Kingdom, and TeamSpeak is used for voice-communication between the players.
Be a part of something bigger than a single soldier's struggle against his enemy on a public server where everyone's out for themselves! Fight the good fight! Join Battle for Europe!
