Introduction

Preamble

Battlefield 4 is a tactical first-person shooter set in the modern era, and is developed and distributed by EA Games.

At Global Conflict the multi-player aspects of the game are utilized to simulate a conflict between two organized armies. Members join a side and agree to abide by the rules of that army and to participate in the campaign as outlined in the Campaign System that follows. The Campaign is played out using original (vanilla) BF4, China Rising, Second Assault, Naval Strike, Dragon's Teeth, Final Stand and Night Operations.

Each army is headed by a General aided by the High Command (HC). The HC is responsible for the smooth running of their army. The HC will accomplish this through the delegation of authority in a manner of their choosing. This authority will not extend to breaching the Rules of Global Conflict and in any case will not supersede the authority of the Tournament Admins or of the Executive.

The guiding principle of the campaign shall be an attitude and display of gentlemanly and sportsmanlike conduct. If any rule in its interpretation or implementation should breach these generally accepted principles then this rule must be adapted to comply. If any rule is unclear in its interpretation then it must be applied with this guiding principle determining its intent and outcome.



In short 21st Century Warfare, or 21CW, is an organized community-based tournament and gaming society that plays large-scale Battlefield 4 battles. They are not a clan, far from it. What they provide is a place for players seeking better, more organized place to play BF4 than the pub servers provide. A place to meet new friends from all over the world and kill them! A place where someone can contribute and advance through effort and hard work. A place where the concept of TEAM reigns supreme.

Unlike many clans, ladders, or competition teams there are no tryouts to join 21CW. Our only requirement to play with us is the desire to be something bigger than yourself. We are open to everyone around the world over the age of 16, no matter their in-game skill level. At 21CW it is about group achievement, not individual skill.


The goal of the Campaign is to gain control of 70 points or to force the other side into surrender. The Campaign Points will be illustrated and hosted on the home page of Global-Conflict.org. As the campaign progresses the campaign points will be updated to reflect the ebb and flow of each army's score.

General, HC
Leaders of each army are traditionally referred to as Generals. The highest-ranked officers in each army are referred to as the High Command (HC).
TA
Tournament Administrators are a group who run the day-to-day functioning of the campaign on their server. They are the "referees" who police the fairplay rules and administer all aspects of the tournament. Both communities have internal teams which may handle some of these matters within their own group, however for the purpose of the campaign these are the contact points for any issues, and the people in charge during battledays.
