Euro: First matches complete and config update - by roob - 05/08/2019

The first European BG3 matches have been completed and I'd like to thank everyone for taking part and not having any forfeits.

There are still two more weeks of seeding matches left before the race to get five titles and become season champions begins.

There is an updated version of the config available for the next matches, which enables displaying enemy names As it was brought to my attention it was disabled in error after being agreed upon in the pre-season meeting.

Please ensure you have it on your server in time for Saturday (or when your next match takes place.

The roster lock will be active for this weeks matches. You can still add players to your roster throughout the week, they will just not appear on your locked roster. However if you do remove a player they will be removed from your locked roster.

BG3 and the return of the European League - by roob - 25/07/2019

I'm happy to announce that the BGU is returning with a European league for BG3.

The first matches for the league will be on Saturday 3rd August, the league will be in the classic BGU format of three weeks of seeding matches then battling it out to become the first team to win five titles and become season champions.

Any teams wishing to join will need to signup before Tuesday 30th July to be scheduled for the first weeks matches. To register please follow the "Apply To Join" link in the menu and select the European League (not the BG2 one). You will need to be field five players at the given match time every week and having a server is highly recommended.

The rules are mostly the same as for BG2 but there are a few changes, the most important being that matches are now at 7PM GMT/BST on Saturdays. The full rule set can be found using the menu on the left.

Also to note is that with BG3 servers returning the new Steam 3 ID format from a status command that is the format players will be registered under. To find out the ID please take a look at https://steamid.co/.

If there is enough interest in a North American league then I will be happy to start it up but will need someone to admin the league as I cannot be online at the time the matches will take place.

The BGU now has a discord to discuss things which you can access via the invite here: https://discord.gg/dPnJbT7/.
