the amount of provinces a player has affects the dificulty of the tournament (what i am not sure is if it is the amount of provinces descovered or the amount of provinces finished, and that is my question,
@Marindor andwered in a way that i can't say i get it)
it is not the same dificulty for a player that has 3 provinces for example (just started playing the game no long ago) and a player that has been playing for over a year.
We can take firt star from the tournament (the closest to your town), the player that just started has lower enemies and lower cater costs. the player that have beem playing for a year has much bigger enemies. both are at the same distance from your town.
In all three worlds I have Steel as a boosted good, so I have a Steel province right next to my town. All provinces are at 1 star

Orc Warrior's stats were changed it 1.17. It had its size decreased from 6 to 2, and most likely the other stats were changed as well. That is why there are fewer Orc Warriors per group on EN server. Apart from that no difference in the enemies between Beta and the EN server.
I admit I forgot to make a note if the enemies are Swamp Monster I or Swamp Monster II, and Thief I or Thief II, but considering that on both Beta and Arendyll I face Thief II, Swamp Monster II and Knight II in the fourth tournament province I think the opponents are exactly the same, only the catering cost is different.
