The new, slightly interactive maps have been released. Despite or perhaps because of their interactivity, they may work now even if they failed to load before (because even with multiple maps, the total size is smaller by an order of magnitude or so than before). Personalized maps and special units will roll out slowly tonight and tomorrow. There will be an encryption-decryption page at the site for the soon-to-appear Ye Gods: War Thread because getting updates via FTP is a bit impractical from a phone. As before, report issues through PMs (hopefully with a distinguishable subject line). If you forgot your passphrase, just PM a request and I will send it. If you dislike your secret goal or want to send a neat list of your unique/special units, send a PM. If you want to talk about general mechanics, OOC posting will be more productive and visible (and far more searchable).

I will now take care of the overdue IC, PM, and OOC stuff.

Also, I already know the JS is simply horrible. Next time something similar happens, I will be sure to use objects and stuff.

So, how does combat work, exactly? Or have you figured that out yet?

[Andres]

What does FTP and JS stand for?

[Kilojoule Proton]

Mostly, yes. I just have to make sure there aren't over-powered combinations now. You didn't have any issues viewing anything other than personalized secret map stuff?

FTP: File Transfer Protocol. What people use to upload files to servers or download them.
JS: JavaScript. A language designed for web-based applications supported by practically all graphical browsers.

[Lost in Nowhere]

It's working perfectly, aside from the distinct lack of any secret map stuff. Unless I'm missing something obvious. And if the code's as bad as you say it is, you should hope that it won't break at any point.

[Kilojoule Proton]

The secret stuff does take some time to prepare, but it's mostly playing with spreadsheets (!) at this point. The code actually isn't likely to break, but it isn't likely to be terribly extensible at this point (or readable by a sane person a few months from now), meaning we probably won't have 3D strategic maps or anything like that. 3D tactical maps are still possible and may even be worth it.

Do you have any secret/special/unique units/features to declare? You can do that by PM if they're secret.

Price check on creating 450 Rani, a race of flightless, bald bird people that are short and weak. They are all female and reproduce asexually. They are gifted in ice magic and live in the far North.

High 3-4E

Is it possible to have the two gas giants rotate each other and stick a generator in between to supply Essence to the supporters of the proposal?

An Essence-powered Wave Motion Gun? How powerful would that be?

Spoiler: Oversoul (click to show/hide)

A specialised human soul. The soul can generate its own body and regenerate it if it's damaged, so long as it's not destroyed completely. It gains Soul Energy by absorbing souls. It absorbs souls by killing their bodies. It uses Soul Energy to both generate and regenerate its body, but eating is the most effective method of regeneration. To create a new body, its old body must be discarded. If it gains enough Soul Energy (read: hundreds of thousands of souls) it can create a body that would rival an archangel's in power. It starts off only enough Soul Energy to make a basic human body. The soul is tethered to the Human Plane, so any attempt to send it to send another dimension or trap it would instead send it straight to the Human Plane.

Spoiler: DEATH BATTLE PLane (click to show/hide)

The DEATH BATTLE Plane where we can each send a warrior or something to duke it out and see who wins. Any entities that enter get immediately returned to where they came from in the condition they were in when they entered the DBP if they die while in it. Entities can choose to leave at any time while in the plane. It would be nice to prove once and for all that the Emperor could totally beat Tikki in a fight without having to declare war on Fusil. Oh, and deity powers don't work in the DEATH BATTLE Plane, to prevent cheating. Obviously named after the web series DEATH BATTLE which takes two or more characters from popular fiction and pits them against each other in a fight to the death.

Price check on Essence Generator
Price check on Supreme Universal Deity Annihilator A.K.A SUDA (the E-powered WMG)
Price check on Codename: Oversoul
Price check on creating the DEATH BATTLE Plane

Essence generator: Fiat no, rendered unproduceable according to specifications without another gas giant.
Essence-powered WMG: 22±1, would be very impractical (consuming Essence to consume another's Essence)
Fighter Plane: Low 1-2E

[Andres]

It took my a while to figure out that 'Fighter Plane' meant the DEATH BATTLE Plane rather than a vehicle used to fight in the air. *facepalm*

Essence-powered WMG: 22±1, would be very impractical (consuming Essence to consume another's Essence)

The SUDA isn't meant to consume the Essence of another god. What even made you think that? It's just supposed to do...well...something like this with its power adjusted to fit the power of Essence/gods.

[Kilojoule Proton]

SUDA: Reduced to 18 but requires collaboration from two gods.

[Andres]

Fair enough on the two gods thing. Can't have a planet-buster be built by a single god and have him blackmailing everyone. But how powerful would it be, exactly? Blow up a moon? A planet? A gas giant? A star? A solar system? The Void?

I've been thinking of making a spin-off game based on the Ye Gods world where the players take control of Codename: Oversoul. Would that be ok with you?

I'm planning on have the game set in one of three settings:
1. Right now. It splits off from where the game is at right now and becomes its own thing.
2. In the future where TVs and cars exist but guns don't (because Fusil's a gun Nazi). Angels, gods, fantastic races, etc. still exist.
3. This is the trickiest. It actually follows the main Ye Gods game and crosses over into it a bunch of times. I am very hesitant with going with this setting for obvious reasons.

Please tell me what you think and which settings I'm allowed to use.

2. In the future where TVs and cars exist but guns don't (because Fusil's a gun Nazi). Angels, gods, fantastic races, etc. still exist.

What in the world are you talking about? I am letting them develop guns. At their own pace. I will be happy when they do so, and have been using them quite often in my own fights. I just don't want to ruin the setting and my influence by bypassing thousands of years of natural development. First they will discover black powder, make simple explosives out of it, develop those into fire lances, etc etc. You wouldn't want me to evolve all the humans into Armu, would you?

....Do you even know what a Nazi is? You seem to be using that word a lot.

Alright *cracks knuckles* Now I gotta kill the god of humans too. No hard feelings. Just hard lead.
