WHAT IS STARFLEET TOURNAMENT?

Starfleet Tournament is an annual intramural competition held by Starfleet. All participants in the competition are members of Starfleet. Starships wishing to participate in the games send teams to represent them, selecting the most athletic and physically fit members of their crews.

The tournament is divided into two separate competitions. The first competition pits starship crews against each other in a series of events, including 1-on-1 deathmatch, team deathmatch, and capture the flag. Losing teams are eliminated and winning teams advance up the ladder, with the top three performing teams winning tournament trophies for first, second, and third places.

The second competition pits teams representing homeworlds against each other. Each homeworld team consists of  the top five most valuable players of each race, based on their performance during the first competition. The Earth team consists of the top five Human MVP's, the Vulcan team consists of the five top Vulcan MVP's, the Andor team consists of the top five Andorian MVP's, and so on. As in the first competition, the top three performing teams win tournament trophies.

The Starfleet Tournament Mod includes three Starfleet Tournament teams, representing Earth, Vulcan, and Andor. It changes several aspects of the game (including sounds, music, and interface) and replaces some of the weapons. It also replaces the holomatch detpack with the single-player detpack, and the holomatch grenade with the single-player grenade. And it includes sixteen Starfleet Tournament arena maps.

Also Included with the mod are two add-on paks: the Vulcan Weapons add-on pak, which changes the weapons not replaced by the mod to Vulcan weapons; and the Andorian Weapons add-on pak, which changes the weapons not replaced by the mod to Andorian weapons.
