Secondly are the participants allowed weapons or will it be good old fisticuffs?

You may only sign up one of your characters for this league, ever.

BUT WE DO HAVE ONE SMALL PROBLEM!!
Energon.
(A huge thank you to EP for bringing this to my attention)
Whilst the staff can manipulate XP, alts and upgrades to your characters to set you all up for this, we cannot affect how much energon you earn/have saved up at this point in the game.
As you will all surely understand, I am hesitant to ask OS for help. Whilst I'm sure he would love to, he is incredibly busy and I cannot ask him to spend time he does not have modifying individual accounts for a game like this, it just wouldn't be fair on him. So, we are looking at what other avenues we can pursue here.
Therefore I give you this warning: level 6 is expensive so you need to take weapons, armour and CR costs into account as well as your stats when you are creating your characters, all the information for this is in the Help section or will be available in HMW:GD when the sign up thread opens.
Current ideas we have to help you are:
- Adding a 'retirement' clause for those who run out of money so the character can return to the normal game.
- Allowing Formula 1-style 'sponsorships'. If a group of players within a faction wish to work together to fund one combatant and register as a group, any rewards given out will be handed to the fighters backers as well as the fighter itself, albeit to a lesser value.
I'm sure in 99% of cases your fellow factionites will be willing to help you out, but this may cause problems for the level 0's especially, so if you guys have any more suggestions or comment on our suggestions above, please feel free to throw them out for us...
Thanks guys.
Configs must be sent privately to The Huntmasters account before a set deadline to be eligible to enter and cannot be changed once submitted apart from upgrading as and when XP allows.

or is it no weapons?
Psychout wrote:You may use any armour, weapons and alts you can get your hands on, and all The Huntmasters will need from you is the list of stats you will be using and your chosen character link. The rest is up to you.
Feel free to rename/recreate your character all you want, alter the bio and story etc as much as you like as long as we have its stats and link then its fine.
Or just leave them as they are, your call.

Just to clarify, How is this to handled? If we build low level 6 we'll still be able to upgrade during the challenge to the 1 upgrade from lvl 7???
