I've been rolling around the idea of a war game, I got the idea from Random's gridbase thing.

Basically it's like BattleShip, or Chess, you move your units to various parts of the board, and the stronger peice wins.

Tanks beating out Snipers.
Rockets beating out tanks.
Snipers beating out rockets.

Ect.

Its a rough idea. But I liked the heavy teamwork needed in the last game. Strategy always makes things more fun.

But for a roughness of thing. Night Cycles would be when the military makes it moves to various points on the board. This also relies heavily on how you construct your team.

If you have a tank, and send a sniper along with it, you can defend it against a rocket, however, if theres a tank with the rocket, both teams kill each other. Perhaps unit upgrades, which instead of money cost a cycle.

Say you're fitting your tank with a stronger gun, that tank is inmobile for a cycle, and needs to be guarded.
Or if your sniper has their gun sent to the shop for better scope/range tuning, they are unarmed for that cycle, and have to be defended or else they're dead. But if these upgraded units come across anenemy, like two snipers meeting, they'll kill each other if their gear is the same, but the one with the longer range if upgraded would obviously take out the one with the outdated gun, and tanks upgraded in armor can resist level one rockets, so a higher level rocket would be needed to destroy the tank.

Also perhaps a fortification ability, if your military leader is at a certian point, he can stay a day cycle there and fortify the area into a mini fort. However he'd need to be defended during this point of time.

No more than 3 people in units to prevent an entire military moving together.

Night Cycles will give the advantage to attackers, so if you're on the move, if you attack a base, you're more likely to take it.

Day cylces allow for movements as well, however your movements will be revealed, as its in the light of day, one can choose to stay put, and not do anything during the day if they wish the element of suprise.

Day Cycles give the advantage to teh defenders, as they can spot oncoming threats.


rough ideas.

I personally didn't like the grid-based game. I voted for it because it was the one I like the most out of the selections. I just view that grid games to be too confusing and leaves too much up to chance.

I like the grid games. It keeps high target players alive the first night.

I liked the grid game as well but I definitely understand why so many players found the last game to be frustrating and confusing. Team Elite was very lucky by being consisted of organized players with very handy roles. My role, for example gave me allot of insider info.

I think it would be good to play a normal game now and allow people to digest the grid system a bit before trying it again.

Yes our roles were handy indeed. Since I didn't know my role when I got it I litterally told Random "I'm going to Roku's bakery, to explore or whatever the hell my role does."

My greatest ability was that Gullas's role was to protect me thus giving us a friend.

How would we vote? Should we PQ you or voice our opinions publicly.

That's all Harkovast.
Seriously? I can think of tons of other players more fitting for most of these titles, off the top of my head.

Of course we can all agree that nobody is more deserving of The Best Plugger title then him.

P.S. I think we should take this seriously. Maybe even post a short strip about it in the mafia comic. Speaking off which. Niccea is trying to relaunch it.

I was thinking of being the ballet box, yes. That way its all secret and no ones feelings will get hurt for not being nominated.

The strip idea is an excellent idea PP! I was thinking about it but I was unsure how to do it. Should it be like DD awards and have different people draw it and annouce the winners or should one person draw it?

I'm working on the Greek God one. I'm finding it frustrating since people have changed their avis since then and I have a OC thing with using the avis that were in the game. Very hard for me.

I'm only on the secound day.

I guess I'll hastily scribble together strips for the Legend of townstonia narrations in order to get the show on the road. It won't be much better then my stick man stuff but I'll try making them funny.

I don't know how detailed we should make the awards ceremony. The amount of titles that you suggested is staggering. Creating a single frame page for each one, depicting the player holding a trophy would be challenging enough. Making strips where there's a big ceremony, and people come up to announce the winners would require so many pages that it would merit it's own comic.

What I'm thinking is that since you categorized the awards into three categories, we might be able to make a short sketch out of each category where the all the winners are announced one after another.

Maybe we could ask the DD awards people if they're interested in helping out with this. I know that the Mafia awards would not be as prestigious as theirs but hell, they might be looking for ways to kill time.



P.S. Here are few suggestions for awards.

Role Category.

Best alternative role. (For players who were monster leaders/raging berserker/Scantily Clad Heroine(Hakoshen's game)/Nerd or any other role that don't really fit any of the standard roles (basically which of these players managed to take advantage of their unique role the most)).

Game Play Category

Sexiest Player (Oz will be furious if he doesn't win that one).

GM Category.

Funniest GM.
Best Narrator.
Most Unique role created. (I have high hopes for that one thanks to my madness game)
Most organized GM (to counter the confusing one).


And maybe we should get rid off the "Least fun to play with" and "Worst GM" award. Those are kinda too negative to be an award.
I would also skip the confusing game award since that kinda goes hand in hand with the confusing GM.

Wait, drawing stuff? I love drawing, count me in! So, do I send a PQ or something, or do I just root through the past games?

Found that out from Dark Knight. Never noticed it before then.

I've got the first Townstonia or XII (can't remember which…) narrative and I'm gonna split it into 3 or 4 pages?

Doin art. Chaa.

Oh and I got Best Vigilante. I hope.

And kill TGFM. Why? Cause it's fun. SO… I nominate him Most Fun to Play with. Honestly. Had a good team with him in God game.
PP as best GM…that means in being organized and fun for players to talk to…and the narrations…
BEST DECIEVER?!!! ROKU. AND HARK.

but most of that's off the games I've played. all of it actually.
