[@Green] I thought the Tier system would work as such. I'll need a definition of each tier though, if I were to use it - otherwise I'd have to make it from scratch.

More than likely, I'd have a tournament for each tier. We'd start with the level zeros, and move right up to the level eights. I wouldn't touch ten, because I imagine at that point it gets difficult to judge just how well a character will withstand an assault. 

Perhaps the players actually play as Sponsors, who select warriors to fight on their behalf per tournament. 

But in any case, I'd favour that because it would force people to play outside of their comfort zones. Again, I'll give it some thought.


And hey, I'm just a noob here, who is plying their trade to something beyond their immediate knowledge base. Whatever you have to say, is invaluable at this stage. Seriously, anything and everything.
