Red vs. Blue Pairing

Allies against Axis. Red against Blue. Some events are about picking a side, and now the pairings respect that. Give every player an alignment and Combat Command will make sure each round puts the two sides across the table from each other.

Red vs. Blue Pairing

How It Works

Each registration can carry an alignment. When pairings are generated for a round, Combat Command pairs competitors from opposing alignments against each other instead of mixing everyone together.

Keeping Alignments Visible

• Alignments appear on the tournament pairings page, so organizers can see at a glance who is on which side.
• An alignment graph shows each side’s players and leaves empty slots visible.
• Competitors with an unknown alignment are placed in the center.
• Organizers can choose when alignments are revealed to players.
