Gentlemen, this is a mission of utmost importance. Succeed, and you will be rewarded handsomely - you will still be alive by the end. The details to Fortress Faceoffs' newest covert operation have just been declassified! Teams of five avant-garde assassins will be brought to a new, top-of-the-line training course to perfect their fundamental skills of deadeye accuracy. To raise the stakes, all agents will only have one bullet in their revolvers at all times, and can only earn a new one through eliminating the enemy and confiscating their contraband! And yes, the documents really do contain this much alliteration in them. Dare you miss your target, and you will be left with only your knife and your bravery. If you succeed in slashing your opponents to submission, you will also earn your bullet back. If you manage to backstab them, your next shot will be greatly improved with the power to pierce through multiple players! You can reserve these piercing charges for as long as you'd like, but don't get too cocky... or else you may not live long enough to use it!
Sign up today and wire the details to the top men in your secret circles! The games begin on August 11th @ 11:59 PM / 23:59 BST for all regions and will continue for roughly 2 weeks, though you do NOT have to actively participate this long! The top 8 teams will have their talent shown off live, proving once and for all that our tax dollars might actually be good for something! For more information about event rules, prizes, and more, join the Fortress Faceoffs Discord and try not to leave any traces behind!
