The CoD4 tournament will run alongside the official CGS event, where the four European franchises (London Mint, Birmingham Salvo, Stockholm Magnetik and Berlin Allianz) will be deciding who represents both the European and UK regions in the world finals held later this year.

The event seems to be spear headed by Birmingham Salvo manager Michael "ODEE" Odell, the former Dignitas manager who was known to be a keen Call of Duty supporter (and player), and has taken it upon himself to attempt and lower the age restriction (18 year old) thought to be applied to the competition, though details remain sparse at this point.

The event will take place over the weekend of 17-18th May and will be restricted to thirty two teams, where teams will be have to apply online. It's not known whether the CGS will employ a first come first serve policy or whether they're going to give preferential treatment to top European teams who've just over two weeks until the event starts.

CGS.CoD4 - £10,000

1st £2,500
2nd £1,500
3rd £1,250
4th £1,150
5th £1,100
6th £1,000
7th £750
8th £750

The CGS event surpasses the prize money total set by Multiplay with their i33 tournament (€12,784 compared to Multiplay's €12,000) held at the end of March, subsequently won by Dignitas with the Meet Your Makers (former The Last Resort) side coming in second. The event spreads the prize winnings much more generously among the lower placing teams and combined with the age issues, may force the event into an all British affair.
