Reanimated

[The_Mather1]

You could use Gilenor for the map and just use factions there, think how the penguins are then... *shivers* (< funny as well as pointing out.)

 

Ok, you edited... forget it...

[Seraphi]

You could base it off of a combination of Z.O.E and Code Geass. Knightmare frames/LEVs (Battlesuits) are awesome, and can have a lot of customisation options, other than simply which armour, helmet and gun you use. You could alter the engine, the weapon, shields, radar, all the limbs, and all the other technical stuff. It would draw a lot more life out of the game.

[Nexaduro]

Hm, I'm thinking Earth has become quarantined from the rest of the universe. Peace is kept throughout the globe by heavy military occupation, and conflicts are fought on separate planets by both volunteers and professional soldiers, and offworld conscripts and convicts as well as the descendants of convicts. Planets capable of sustaining human life are divided between Earthside factions according to their influence and power. Normal soldiers are highly paid to fight in these necessary conflicts, and prisoners can win their freedom through combat.

[Retech]

You could merge that with planeteering, since it sounds like the gameplay would be similar.

[The_Mather1]

Don't think I'll be able to do something where I'm required to moderate a war.

[Seraphi]

Which is why we change it to use battlesuits! Come on, you get much more customisation options, which draw the game out and keep it fun for longer, and you can still fight in space/on the ground.

 

Obligatory picture of a battlesuit/LEV/Knightmare frame.

[The_Mather1]

Nah, planeteering is supposed to be based on the epicness achievable for a handfull normal persons, like SG-1 and SGA.

[Seraphi]

We aren't talking about planeteering though, we're talking about an idea for a new game.

[The_Mather1]

Retech was talking about merging it with planeteering...

[Seraphi]

Hrm. Well. I propose a new game which involves battlesuits instead of a merge.

[Nexaduro]

I don't like battlesuits as a main form of combat. The soldiers will have access to transports and mechs and such things, kinda like BF2142.

[Seraphi]

Then it'll pretty much play the same as planeteering. I was just suggesting something to differ the two.

 

Bleh.

[Nexaduro]

Planeteering basically isn't doing anything...

 

Meh. Back to the drawing board, I can't think of a way to make that work.

 

I really want a medeival, urban setting that allows for significant large scale management as well as individual adventure, and that isn't as completely ridiculous as Dungeoneering sometimes is. Dungeoneering would be enough, except for the fact that it sometimes lacks action despite it's relatively fast pace, and sessions aren't long/frequent enough.

[Earth]

hmmm. nex, practice what you preach man! anyways, how about something along the lines of my new game idea. its in the tavern discussion. anyways, how about we do a reanimated session?

[The_Mather1]

Planeteering basically isn't doing anything...

Sais the guy who started by killing a few animals for a tribal people then uses hours trying to get a pet cub.

 

No one has even tried dialing another planet.

[Earth]

shall we play?/....

[Nexaduro]

If three people want to play, we can I suppose.

[Grim_]

here

[Earth]

... meh i wana go be an evil bastard on ZM. see ya until its Dungeonerring time.

[Retech]

Ich bin hier!

 

Konnen wir jetzt spielen?

 

(I am here. Can we now play?)

[Nexaduro]

Fine. Post actions.

[Retech]

Jen goes outside and asks her horsey if she can ride. If she can, then Jen rides around near the bunker, staying away from enemies, for practice (so she can do it normally without falling off constantly). Then she tries firing with her bow on horseback.

[Grim_]

(Thanks!) Karl attempts to go through the plain door (is it day or night?)

[The_Mather1]

Håkon collects the darts stuck in his body.

[Nexaduro]

It's day, Grim.

 

Jen - You leave the bunker and mount your horse, but are immediately spotted by several Revenants holding cudgels. You try to fire an arrow at them, but miss. One of the Revenants catches the arrow, and tosses it back at you with unerring accuracy. It hits your forehead and knocks you, bleeding and unconscious, off your horse.

Karl - You try to open the door, but it seems locked.

Hakon - You wake up and start plucking the darts out of your body, and as you stand you step on a tile which sinks into the floor, and you hear a click from across the room. As you turn, you see a door that you're fairly sure wasn't there before.
