War!

War!
16:48:29 Dec 26th 07 - Mr. Killer: The snow falls heavily, all the while the soldiers continue onwards. There would be many across the lands, seeking to take over more land and grow more powerful. Killer observed them from his chair far above them, where they would not see him. This will be interesting, he thought. Right, this is a game where you try kill the other guy. You have soldiers at your disposal, and so has the other guy. Each troop can only move so far... Here is an example of one of the battlefields: \| 2 3 0 0 A 0 0 0 3 2 \| \| 2 3 0 0 B 0 0 0 3 2 \| \| 1 1 0 0 B 0 0 0 1 1 \| \| 1 1 0 0 B 0 0 0 1 1 \| \| 9 1 4 0 0 0 0 4 1 9 \| \| 1 1 0 0 B 0 0 0 1 1 \| \| 1 1 0 0 B 0 0 0 1 1 \| \| 2 3 0 0 B 0 0 0 3 2 \| \| 2 3 0 0 A 0 0 0 3 2 \| 1 = Spearman, can hit one square away, has 3 defence, and 2 attack. Can move 1 space at a time. 2 = Archer, can hit up to 5 squares away, has 1 defence, and 1 attack. Can move 1 sapce at a time. 3 = Crossbow man, can hit up 3 squares away, has 2 defence, and 2 attack. Can move 1 space at a time. 4 = Knight, can hit one square away, has 4 defence, and 8 attack. Can move 3 spaces at a time. 9 = Commander (you, the person thinking about the attack and stuff.) Can hit one square away, has 20 defence, and 5 attack. Can move two spaces at a time. If (s)he dies, you lose \| = Wall of (insert colour here). 5 defence. A = Rock, troops can't move past, can shoot past, indestructable. B = Tree, troops can't move past, can't shoot past, destructable, having 3 defence. The reds are against the golds. You have to get past the wall, or kill the commander. Only ranged troops, that can shoot over one square, can shoot past objects, as meleé fighters can only hit one space away. There is also weather, which affects the battle. This one is snow. Troops slow by one space, with a minimum of moving one space(unless you don't want them to move.) You don't have to move all your troops, or any of your troops. When attacking, the attck hits against the defence. E.g. if you had a spearman(2 attack) atacking a knight( 4 defence) you have 2/4(a half) chance of killing the knight. The knight can't kill the troop at the same turn, only when it's his go. Another e.g. A knight( 8 attack) attacking a spearman ( 3 defence) will have 8/3 chance of killing the spearman, in other words, the spearman will always die, as if it is over 100% chance (1/1, 2/2, 3/3 etc...) he will always kill the other troop. So... everyone understand? There will be more troops, and some of those troops may not be there, different batlefields, and YOU(hopefully). As many can join as they want, 24 max.(this many won't join, so you will be able to join, in case you were wondering about my reasoning.) I might get someone else to look over battlse as well. When moving, you just show all your movements on the field, with colours and stuff still in the right spot and troops. However, when attacking, unless it is over 100% chance, even if it is 99% chance(it won't be...) tell me who you are attacking, with what troop, and then I'll complete the board afterwards(I'll work something out to show what troops are where, maybe something like on a chessboard, with letters and numbers on the side. Of course, this might be difficult when I'm planning to have 3 or 4 people on the battlefiled if there is enough players. SO, SIGN UP HERE(I'm not going to play, as someone will accuse me of cheating, no doubt):
16:50:06 Dec 26th 07 - Mr. Killer: \| 2 3 0 0 A 0 0 0 3 2 \| \| 2 3 0 0 B 0 0 0 3 2 \| \| 1 1 0 0 B 0 0 0 1 1 \| \| 1 1 0 0 B 0 0 0 1 1 \| \| 9 1 4 0 0 0 0 4 1 9 \| \| 1 1 0 0 B 0 0 0 1 1 \| \| 1 1 0 0 B 0 0 0 1 1 \| \| 2 3 0 0 B 0 0 0 3 2 \| \| 2 3 0 0 A 0 0 0 3 2 \| Sorry, just checknig if the colours stayed while copying, and they do :), so it will be easier to do out the battliefiled when posting your moves and attacks.
17:11:22 Dec 26th 07 - Mr. Sparemylifeplz: Sparemylifeplz
17:11:47 Dec 26th 07 - Mr. Sparemylifeplz: Hey, can knights move over a soldier so long as they do not land on the soldier?
18:39:16 Dec 26th 07 - Mr. Killer: No, troops can only move around another troop, no matter whether it's friend or foe.
15:51:02 Dec 27th 07 - Mr. Killer: Everyone seems to have vanished for the Christmas... Sparemylifeplz
18:46:17 Dec 27th 07 - Mr. Cool Guy: I'll think about playing- but check I'm still active first.
14:31:49 Dec 28th 07 - Mr. Killer: There might also be prices for each troop, so you can buy which troops you want at the start of each. Both people will have the same amount of gold, and you can place your troops where-ever you want on your side of the battlefield, with one-five rows, or so.
17:54:46 Dec 28th 07 - Mr. Arvious III: I'll play whatever spot is open
21:57:09 Dec 28th 07 - Mr. Killer: Whatever spot is open?... I'll just stick you in... Sparemylifeplz Arvious III
17:00:02 Dec 29th 07 - Mr. Xanatos Chivalier: ill do it
17:05:33 Dec 29th 07 - Mr. Allan: Ill play!
17:19:46 Dec 29th 07 - Mr. Xanatos Chivalier: Allan u bastered read the tavern
22:39:51 Dec 29th 07 - Mr. Killer: Sparemylifeplz Arvious III Xanatos Chivalier Allan It's incredibly difficult to put your names on the list, I know, but I'd appreciate if you did it yourself.
03:17:48 Dec 30th 07 - Mr. Xanatos Chivalier: y don't we play with 4 players
15:24:57 Dec 30th 07 - Mr. Killer: Because I mean to have more battles than one or two...
23:54:26 Dec 30th 07 - Mr. Xanatos Chivalier: hehe
16:10:05 Jan 1st 08 - Mr. Killer: Errmmm... I need 3 or 4 more players, please. Eight would be a nice amount... Sparemylifeplz Arvious III Xanatos Chivalier Allan
21:36:55 Jan 1st 08 - Mr. Pesterd: me
23:51:39 Jan 1st 08 - Mr. Killer: Sparemylifeplz Arvious III Xanatos Chivalier Allan Pesterd
01:56:38 Jan 2nd 08 - Mr. Wraithish: I would join up but I have lots of work to do and cant log in often... How often would we have to log in?
02:00:05 Jan 2nd 08 - Mr. Wraithish: Also, in this example aren't Knight abit overpowered? They can kill everything except the Commander in one hit. Btw (sorry for all the suggestions) would it be too complicated to give certain units bonuses like say Spearmen have bonus against Knights?
02:17:27 Jan 2nd 08 - Mr. Xanatos Chivalier: Sparemylifeplz Arvious III Xanatos Chivalier Allan Pesterd Wraithish
02:21:17 Jan 2nd 08 - Mr. Pesterd: lol? u signing up for wraithish?
02:23:23 Jan 2nd 08 - Mr. Wraithish: ah **** it. Ye I'm in lol. Sparemylifeplz Arvious III Xanatos Chivalier Allan Pesterd Wraithish
02:24:16 Jan 2nd 08 - Mr. Pesterd: multi?!?!?!?!?
02:25:33 Jan 2nd 08 - Mr. Wraithish: Multi? whats that mean?
02:29:48 Jan 2nd 08 - Mr. Pesterd: lol all multis play dumb.... but i was joking....
06:20:35 Jan 2nd 08 - Mr. Xanatos Chivalier: ...? im no beeping multi u cok suckin hoe
13:12:30 Jan 2nd 08 - Mr. Wraithish: lol. When are we going to start?
14:05:31 Jan 2nd 08 - Sir Dramborleg: Very nice killer! I'm very intresting in how this games is going to develop. I'm not able to play this game since i only log on once or twice a day.
17:46:02 Jan 2nd 08 - Mr. Killer: Meh... you just have to make a move every day, and I might let you away with two occasionally. You can make as many as you want per day though. Also, I suggest leaving each move at least 5 mins after each post, as the other person may edit it... You just have to copy it down, and move your men. And Wraithish, you won't have many knights, they are more expensive than the others. And as for bonuses... ugh... too hard to work out with them in, I'll just forget. If one more person joins, I'll play too, and if two more people join I won't. We will start then. And, I've decided that you will only be able to move a certain amount in each game, so you won't have to do as much, depending on how many men you have got.
18:00:29 Jan 2nd 08 - Mr. Wraithish: Ok thanks and no prob. I thought it would be a bit too complicated =P
19:56:04 Jan 2nd 08 - Sir Dramborleg: Sparemylifeplz Arvious III Xanatos Chivalier Allan Pesterd Wraithish Dramborleg i'm in too, though i dont want to play at first. Want to watch a match first, seeing how it works because i dont get it total.
21:39:16 Jan 2nd 08 - Mr. Killer: Ok... fine... I will wait another day to see if another joins. And here is a sample game... It's a small enough one. There will be different troops other than these ones, but you'll get the idea.. And also, new troops, ones that fly. They can move over other troops, but cannot end a turn above another troop. Only other flying troops and ranged(troops with more than 1 range, e.g. archers, catapults) troops can hit them. In the following game, the weather is fine, no hinderances to any troops. Both players can move 10 troops at a time. Troops can only move OR attack each turn. Sorry about that big OR, I had to grab your attention for that part :P. Read all of this text as well, otherwise you might not understand it. Post any questions you may have. First, here is the prices. Each player, red and green, get 15,000 gold. Here's the troop prices... and descriptions. Prices, attack, defence and movement may vary between games. Troop(type) Price Attack Defence Movement Range Shielder(ground) / 100 / 0 / 5 / 1 / 1 Spearman(ground) / 200 / 2 / 3 / 1 / 1 Swordman(ground) / 300 / 4 / 2 / 1 / 1 Archer(ground) / 500 / 2 / 1 / 1 / 5 Knight(ground) / 1500 / 10 / 4 / 5 / 1 Mounted Archer(ground) / 2000 / 5 / 2 / 5 / 5 Catapult(ground) / 7500 / 20 / 5 / 1 / 10 Eagle Rider(Flying) / 10000 / 15 / 10 / 3 / 1 Commander(Ground) / NaN / 5 / 25 / 1 / 1 Each troop is numbered in relation to the above, i.e. Shielder = 1, Spearman = 2, Commander = 9 Red buys 10 Shielders, 1 Eagle Rider, 1 Knight, and 5 archers. The starting board is as follows... \| ? ? 0 0 A 0 0 ? ? \| \| ? ? 0 0 B 0 0 ? ? \| \| ? ? 0 0 0 0 0 ? ? \| \| ? ? 0 0 B 0 0 ? ? \| \| ? ? ? 0 0 0 ? ? ? \| \| ? ? 0 0 B 0 0 ? ? \| \| ? ? 0 0 0 0 0 ? ? \| \| ? ? 0 0 B 0 0 ? ? \| \| ? ? 0 0 A 0 0 ? ? \| Red places his troops, and... \| ? 1 0 0 A 0 0 ? ? \| \| 4 1 0 0 B 0 0 ? ? \| \| 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 ? ? \| \| 8 1 0 0 B 0 0 ? ? \| \| 9 1 1 0 0 0 ? ? ? \| \| 5 1 0 0 B 0 0 ? ? \| \| 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 ? ? \| \| 4 1 0 0 B 0 0 ? ? \| \| 4 1 0 0 A 0 0 ? ? \| A = Rock, troops can't move past, can shoot past, indestructable. B = Tree, troops can't move past, can't shoot past, destructable, having 3 defence. \| = Wall of (insert colour here). 5 defence. To win, get past a part of the wall, or kill the commander. Next, green buys his troops, as follows... 1 Catapult, 5 archers, 2 Mounted Archers, and 5 spearmen. He sets his side of the board up, with the advantgae of knowing what troops the other guy has... I'll have to do something about that... Both leaders will send me their set up of their side of the board, that's what... Which is what happens here ; ) \| 0 1 0 0 A 0 0 0 2 \| \| 4 1 0 0 B 0 0 0 2 \| \| 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 4 0 \| \| 8 1 0 0 B 0 0 4 6 \| \| 9 1 1 0 0 0 4 7 9 \| \| 5 1 0 0 B 0 0 4 6 \| \| 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 4 2 \| \| 4 1 0 0 B 0 0 0 2 \| \| 4 1 0 0 A 0 0 0 2 \| Red takes his turn. \| 0 0 1 0 A 0 0 0 2 \| \| 4 0 1 0 B 0 0 0 2 \| \| 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 4 0 \| \| 8 1 0 0 B 0 0 4 6 \| \| 9 1 0 1 0 0 4 7 9 \| \| 5 1 0 0 B 0 0 4 6 \| \| 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 4 2 \| \| 4 0 1 0 B 0 0 0 2 \| \| 4 0 1 0 A 0 0 0 2 \| Green takes his turn. \| 0 0 1 0 A 0 0 0 2 \| \| 4 0 1 0 B 0 0 0 2 \| \| 4 1 0 0 0 0 4 0 0 \| \| 8 1 0 0 B 0 4 0 6 \| \| 9 1 0 1<-<- 4 7 9 \| \| 5 1 0 0 B 0 4 0 6 \| \| 4 1 0 0 0 0 4 0 2 \| \| 4 0 1 0 B 0 0 0 2 \| \| 4 0 1 0 A 0 0 0 2 \| In the above picture, the archer shoots at the enemy shielder, and has a 2 in 5 chance of killing the enemy. In the case of a real game, there will be markings, like a chessboard, along the board, and you will say, say R18(sorry, had to use a far off one so you wouldn't think it like a chess board, just the same style with more letters and numbers) attacks R17. I will then see who wins, and will post the board then. Anway, this archer here has a 2/5 chance in killing the enemy, as he has 2 attack, and the foe has 5 defence. He wins, and kills the enemy. Picture shown beneath... \| 0 0 1 0 A 0 0 0 2 \| \| 4 0 1 0 B 0 0 0 2 \| \| 4 1 0 0 0 0 4 0 0 \| \| 8 1 0 0 B 0 4 0 6 \| \| 9 1 0 0 0 0 4 7 9 \| \| 5 1 0 0 B 0 4 0 6 \| \| 4 1 0 0 0 0 4 0 2 \| \| 4 0 1 0 B 0 0 0 2 \| \| 4 0 1 0 A 0 0 0 2 \| In the case of if the archer didn't kill the shielder, the board would just have remained the same as the previous one, without the arrows in the middle. Now, although I would love(...) to go through the whole game, it would take far too long. So, here it is near the end, well... a game with the same start that might have led to this... \| 2 0 0 0 A 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 B 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 B 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 9 8 7 9 \| \| 0 0 0 0 B 0 0 0 6 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 2 \| \| 0 0 0 0 A 0 0 0 0 \| As you can see, the tree was destroyed near the bottom,(not by the shielder, as he has no attack) and the shielder went through it afterwards... It is now green's turn. Now, as you can see, the green catapult(7) can hit the red eagle rider(8), BUT he can hit the red commander(9) as well. In the case of a diagonal, a ranged shooter can't simply shoot that way at all, and neither can a non-ranged one. Also, if you look up in the top tleft-hand corner, you will see a green spearman(2) He is about to attack the wall. So... the green catapult(7) shoots at the red commander(9), with a 20/25 chance, as the catapult has 20 attack, and the commander has 25 defence. Or, if you wish to break it down, 4/5 chance. This is pretty good... BUT, he misses, so the board is the same. However, I suppose you forgot about the lowly spearman(9) in the top left corner. Tch... Well, he has a 2/5 chance of breaking through, as the spearman has 2 attack, and the wall has 5 defence. He attacks, and doesn't manage to break through... Unlucky green... Here's the board before red's turn... \| 2 0 0 0 A 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 B 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 B 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 9 8 7 9 \| \| 0 0 0 0 B 0 0 0 6 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 2 \| \| 0 0 0 0 A 0 0 0 0 \| The red Eagle Rider(8) attacks the catapult in front, with a 15/5 chance of winning, or if you prefer, a definite win. Guess what? He wins... So, here's the board. \| 2 0 0 0 A 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 B 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 B 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 9 8 0 9 \| \| 0 0 0 0 B 0 0 0 6 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 2 \| \| 0 0 0 0 A 0 0 0 0 \| Green's turn... He attacks the wall with his spearman, and breaks through. However, he still has to walk through. 0 2 0 0 0 A 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 B 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 B 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 9 8 6 9 \| \| 0 0 0 0 B 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 2 \| \| 0 0 0 0 A 0 0 0 0 \| Red is doomed... But he still attacks the mounted archer(6) with his Eagle Rider(8), and wins. 0 2 0 0 0 A 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 B 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 B 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 9 8 0 9 \| \| 0 0 0 0 B 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 \| \| 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 2 \| \| 0 0 0 0 A 0 0 0 0 \| Green walks through the wall, and WINS! Any questions, post them here. I might give the troops higher defence and lower offence, they seem a bit in the attacker's favour.
22:16:50 Jan 2nd 08 - Mr. Sparemylifeplz: It's kind of cheap that catapults can attack commander from other side of board... but I guess the commander can move away.
23:04:45 Jan 2nd 08 - Mr. Killer: Uhhh... yeah... A bit. The boards will be bigger though. I'll probably decrease the range of the catapults as well... I'll think out the proper games better.
01:13:17 Jan 3rd 08 - Mr. Pesterd: lol you got so much time on your head to develope this game but i like it WE NEED 1 MORE SIGN UP!!
09:53:31 Jan 3rd 08 - Sir Dramborleg: I get it more now thank you Killer. What about making the archers range 3 and catapult range 5? I think we should start, this game is not easy to play now and offcource we'll find things that need to be solved. and a little thing as adding, a shielder has no attack. How can he destroy the wall?
15:42:42 Jan 3rd 08 - Mr. Killer: Shielders can't destroy the wall... Just buy some troops that can. Yeah, I think decreasing their range is a good idea... Someone else can sign up now, and I'd appreciate if you posted any queries before the wars start. I'll join if no-one else will.
20:33:36 Jan 3rd 08 - Mr. Killer: Sparemylifeplz Arvious III Xanatos Chivalier Allan Pesterd Wraithish Dramborleg Killer Alright... Let's get this started. Killer peers down from his position. He sees his forces gathering. He sees the others' forces gathering too. He flies down upon his Pegasus from his chair, and lands in the middle of his group. "Let us go to war!" he yells. Right, here's the line-up for the matches. I won't start them all at one time. I'll go last, so if someone wants to join while the others are starting they can do so, in my position. These are completely random, apart from my own, but the person playing me is random. You're colours are assigned according to what colour it is in your name. I also wish to know if anyone is colour-blind. I'm not too sure what colours they could distinguish, so tell me(if you happen to be colour blind) what colours you can distinguish. 3 colours is necessary in each game, the other one will be black on the boards. The colours are shown, but if you're off by a shade, it doesn't matter. I'll try to get the oppenent's colours as different from each other as possible. Wraithish(2nd colour across, 3rd down) V Sparemylifeplz(8th colour across, 6th down) Pesterd(3rd colour across, 4th down) V Arvious III(6th colour across,4th down) Xanatos Chivalier(9th colour acorss, 5th down) V Dramborleg(5th colour across, 6th down) Allan(4th colour across, 4th down) V Killer(7th colour across, 2nd down) (Sorry Allan, you're stuck with the best guy :P) I'll start the first match tomorrow.
20:36:57 Jan 3rd 08 - Sir Revenge: Ill join can I ? Please =] Pretty please with ice cream with a cherry on top =]
20:42:45 Jan 3rd 08 - Mr. Killer: :( Sparemylifeplz Arvious III Xanatos Chivalier Allan Pesterd Wraithish Dramborleg Revenge Wraithish(2nd colour across, 3rd down) V Sparemylifeplz(8th colour across, 6th down) Pesterd(3rd colour across, 4th down) V Arvious III(6th colour across,4th down) Xanatos Chivalier(9th colour acorss, 5th down) V Dramborleg(6th colour across, 7th down) Allan(4th colour across, 4th down) V Revenge(7th colour across, 2nd down) More people can join... Though I'm not sure if I'll get you to have a match. I'll see... Good luck all! The winner might get to play me afterwards!
20:48:45 Jan 3rd 08 - Mr. Killer: If anyone doesn't like their colours, tell me now... I might change them... The wars start tomorrow, and each one will have slightly different boards, and maybe different gold and troops. The first match will start tomorrow anyway, and then I'll start the others the days after. REMEMBER, you buy your troops, and then PM me where you want to place your troops. In fact, you PM what troops you want to buy to me, and since each one might be different, only send them when I post your board, troops and gold.
20:58:24 Jan 3rd 08 - Sir Revenge: Cool, cant wait till I kill allen ^^ Good luck all ^^ Is it like a knockout? Is that an idea? The winner then plays you ^^
21:01:29 Jan 3rd 08 - Mr. Killer: Well, the first one starts tomorrow, so yours will probably start in a good while, maybe Monday or Tuesday. I might be able to start more though, I shall see... Huh... you edited your post... Well, it's a sort of knockout. The losers of this round won't get to play again at any rate. I was hoping for the next round there would be the four winners all playing each other, and two would go through, and then play each other. However, if more people join I might, if I get them in, make it different, with 3s in it, or maybe even 5s, if there is enough people.
23:13:26 Jan 3rd 08 - Mr. Sparemylifeplz: Ok... so when are you going to make the boards, and where? In here, or are you going to send each of us a copy of the board and ask us for our starting pieces? Another question: do you have to fill all the starting piece spaces (I meant the question marks)?
23:15:40 Jan 3rd 08 - Mr. Sparemylifeplz: Yet another question: all of your pieces can attack in one turn, right? And if so, isn't it kind of cheap, since if you put archers in the front, you can shoot most of the enemy down in your first move? Maybe last question: Can archers shoot past soldiers, or is that only for catapults / eagle riders?
01:16:13 Jan 4th 08 - Mr. Wraithish: Why don't you do 2 vs 2 for the first rounds then the final is all the winners against each other on a large map? Could be interesting.
14:31:56 Jan 4th 08 - Mr. Wraithish: I mean 1 vs 1 for the first round. I was partly drunk when I wrote that so feel free to ignore it. >_<
