Rewind Events presents: The 2vs2 NationsCup

Gentlemen, Welcome to the first NationsCup!

Welcome to one of the biggest events in Company of Heroes 2!

As the title says, it's a cup between different Nations, like the Fifa World Cup.
Players from all over the world start uniting in their country and play for their flag.
After teams are formed, we will have battles between France and Germany, Poland against America and Japan against Australia and many more.

Who's interested in playing for their country?
Everyone can participate because who doesn't want to represent their country?
If you already have a team of 2 players, you can both sign up.
If you are alone and want to find another teammate, just sign up and we'll form teams out of the single sign ups.

After all players have completed their signup, what is the next step?



If countries have multiple teams, these fellow-countrymen will have to battle eachother in the National Tournament. Belgians will battle Belgians, Frenchies vs Frenchies and so on.

When these National tournaments are over, we will know the top team that will represent their country.
