Well, okay then. My first game ever got threadjacked by people who weren't playing very well, so here goes! Whee!
Know how fanbois like to have flamewars? This here thread is a more civillized way to work out your aggressions... Pick an oject of fanboism, and use it to smite your enemies! Let me explain the rules now:
Pick a Team (teams listed below). You don't have to pick one of those, but if you are going to choose something else, please PM me so I can add it to the list of teams. (you don't want to fight alone after all!)
Anywho, Teams are as follows:
Halo
Half-Life
Marathon
Star Wars
Star Trek
---
Anyways, you choose one of those, and use it to fight the other teams... The rules need further clarification, I think, as this will play more similairly to a really bad Pen-and Paper game than to your standard forum game... First of all, this isin't one of those "play as one person" games... you play the role of a commander of multiple ships/troops/whatever. More rules:
* No super weapons! They take all the fun away. Anything that is uncounterable is out.
* No instant fleets! You can bring in reinforcements, but you must alert players when you send for them, give reasonable pause for them to arrive, and give justification for their existance (The UNSC won't have 10,000 ships to spare) and there is a limit of no more than 5000 ships in-system at any given time, as any more gets confusing.
* No insta-kill on other peoples fleets!
The game is set in a five-planet solar system; two small inner planets (inhabitable and not of much use), one large habitable planet (A bit colder than earth; Alpine climate similair to the climate of "Danger Canyon" Halo PC map), and two outer gas giants. There are many advantages to controlling the planet, use your imagination. Since Half-Life has no space forces to speak of (as far as I know... I haven't played the games), they start in control of the planet. Game ends when one team eliminates all other teams from the system.
Have Fun
...
I hope.
