Anyway, here is a new game. Actual forum battles! Members can fight against each other.
How does this work?
This will be a league. The number of rounds depend on how many members will register to the game. And at the end, the person who wins the finals shall be declared as the forum's strongest warrior (so......yeah, like the tournaments in DBZ).
The users will fight by posting their actions. They can attack and defend themselves. For example:
User 1: *punches user 2*
User 2: *tries to dodge*
GM: User 1 hits user 2 and defeats him.
(try to be more creative than that, though)
You won't need to roleplay, only say what your action is. Only the GM though can say what happens.
The characters are basically yourselves. The only thing you need to do is to give yourself powers, stats and a weapon (if you want).
While I didn't want to use some sort of system for this, I've realized that a rather general system is actually a good idea, so the GMs will know how they should act.
Thinking outside the box is very important here.
This doesn't have to be a fast paced game. You have the chance to make a move whenever you can, however, if you don't react or attack for 24 hours, the battle will move on and the GM would give the situation.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Character creation:
There are four stats:
Strength
Speed
Stamina
Power
For those who are unfamiliar with these kind of systems, here is a quick explanation.
Strength is for your physical attack's damage - low strength would mean that your attacks won't cause much damage.
Speed is for determining if you manage to hit your enemy or if you can dodge from your enemy's attacks.
Stamina is determing your hit points. You start all the time with 100% HP, however, if your stamina is low, only a few attacks would be enough to defeat your character. If your stamina is high, you will take less damage for every attack you get hit.
Power - Deciding the efficiency of your chosen powers. If you don't have much points in this one, your powers won't be so efficient and not all of your attacks would work.
You start with 16 points of which you can give to your stats. The maximum for each stat is 8 points. A character who wins in a battle gets a new point which she can add to her existing stats.
Powers - this I leave to you. Don't try to give your character a Superman powers or the powers of the 4 elements, since that would be overpowered. I will be reviewing your character and then I shall inform you if you have made your character too powerful. You don't have to tell me exactly ALL of the moves your character can do, but just some of them, so I shall have the general idea.
Once you decide on your character's powers, you can't change them in the middle of the tournament!
Weapon/s - this is also up to you.
You can change your weapon in the middle of the tournament, but not in the middle of the battle (unless of course your powers have something to do with weapons or something like that).
If you decide on some sort of exotic weapon, better give a picture of the weapon.
Special:
1) Power weapons - you can have a power weapon, which can have some sort of power in it, however, you will get a pelanty of 2 points of your Power stats. This also means that you have to have at least 3 points in your Power stats (which would mean that at the end, you only have one point in Power). A Power Weapon can't be changed in the middle of the tournament (unless of course your Power Weapon can change to whatever weapon you wish or something like that).
2) Body Features - You can add special features to your body (only physical features). However, you will get a penalty to your stats, but this depends on what feature it is, so it will be decided by me while I review your character.
Your character's chart will only be known to the GMs
--------------------------------
The tournament is set to start next month, so you have time to create your character.
For now I put 16 spots and those who want to enter, simply say so in this thread:
1. xcommando
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.
11.
12.
13.
14.
15.
16.
If you want to participate, but don't want to fight, you can become a GM. I'll have to say the final word about that, though. If you want to be a GM, say so in this thread.
There will be maximum 4 GMs (including myself)
1. Kor
2.
3.
4.
Only one person can be a GM in a battle between two members. So we can have multiple battles (at different threads of course) at the same time.
