So it begins.

 

This game is.... best described as a blend of insanity, tactics, and luck.

 

You start in a small town with a few of your friends. You can choose to either be the leader, or be a "follower." Starting groups are limited to 3 people. You may have other players as a part of your group. The group can separate, but not in a way that they cease to be a group. (I.E. no roaming 300 miles to the west off on your own.)

 

Each character has 5 main stats, along with other "proficiency" stats like those in Dungeoneering. These 5 are Leadership, Accuracy, Strength, Speed, and Defense. They determine various factors in a fight, of which there will be many. These can be altered by equipment, which will be addressed later. Accuracy determines the accuracy of that character's attacks, Strength determines the strength of the attack, Speed determines dodge abilities as well as how quickly the character can move to various places, and Defense determines how well that character can defend themselves. Leadership affects stuff only by way of the leader of the group, and affects morale and other passive elements. Every character starts with 1 Leadership.

Battles

 

Combat is turn-based in a Fire Emblem style, sans the tile movement - that is, the leader of one group gets to move their people around tactically and/or attack, then the enemy gets to. The leader makes all tactical decisions, but if a player in a group decides that a different tactic is necessary, he can temporarily rebel against the leader at a varying cost and execute his own tactic on his own.

 

If you wish to join another player's party, the party must A ) have room, and B ) have a leader that will allow you to join. If the leader has low Leadership, you may end up being able to join anyways.

 

Party names will be chosen by the leader. Any empty spots in a party will be filled with randomly generated NPCs.

 

If there's anything you have questions about, feel free to ask. I'm pretty sure I forgot to write some stuff in here, so I expect questions.

 

Actions can be posted whenever, and will be replied to en masse whenever the mod (Me) has time.

 

If a party leader goes inactive (5-8 actions), the character with the next highest Leadership in the party becomes the temprorary leader.

 

Rest of first post reserved for party lists.

LEADER

Earth - Okay, you wanna be a leader, or join a party?

 

Dungeonal - Pick a weapon.

I shall be a member. I guess i find a party to join?

Earth - You can join an NPC party, try to join Dungeonal's party, or wait and see if someone else makes a different party for you to join.

I guess i try for dungeonal's party?

K, Dungeonal has to approve.

I want to lead, but I can't play for the next 15 minutes or so. Got some stuff to do.

 

I'll be back soon though.

We're not starting gameplay for a bit, Ross, so that's okay.

 

You still need to pick a class though :P

What do you say, Dungeonal? Can i join?

Looks good, gotta rush though.

Ross, I'll be in your party?

Håkon, rouge.

all right then earth

 

recurve bow pls

Alrighty then.

 

Dungeonal - Do you want to leave the town with just the two of you, be joined by a NPC, or wait for a 3rd player to join your party?

I can join.

ok we'll have mather

 

lets ROLL!

Alright then.

 

Dungeonal's Party -

You exit the town. In which direction do you travel?

north

I'd be on Ross' team.

 

I think it would be good to have a craftsman, that should probably be Ross unless he'd rather be something else.

Dungeonal's Party - And north you go!

 

Earth - While walking you stumble across some sticks and random iron bits, which you pick up. Hey, they may be useful later. +0.1 scavenger.

 

You then stumble upon a cave. Do you go in, continue walking, or walk in a completely different direction?

I say we should take a peek. Dungeonal?

yeh lets go in

 

im going to bed now >:3

Dungeonal's Party

You walk into the cave, and all simultaneously trip on a cave root. You hear laughing, and look up into the face of a burly, bearded old man. He attempts to crush Mather's skull in, but Mather dodges out of the way.

 

K, Dungeonal. At a random coin flip, Earth is chosen as temporary party leader, and your character falls under his control unless you wish for it to remain in stasis.

here... not for long tho. i'm on my wii, and it's difficult to type. mather flanks the dude, dungeon gets back and shoots while i bash him with my hammer.
