[IRP] Famous Gladiators
« on: November 19, 2016, 05:10:02 pm »

GLADIATOR MANAGER
Famous Gladiators 2

How can you pity them. What you offer is the better option. A painful death is far more merciful than a life of toil... and maybe, they will rise. Maybe, they will become something more. Lead them. Give them that opportunity.

Choose
>play as gladiator (human or beast)
>play as manager

(rapidly switching roles will not be allowed, nor simultanous play. both roles are active.)

2 to 8 simultaneous players, downtime/swap-out, waitlist
daily turns, up to 10 turn battles

Still working on gamebalance, please be ready for changes little and big. I like to experiment!

I may unapologetically or without warning, take breaks from the game. I may make gameplay decisions that don't benefit the immersion but help me run the game more smoothly.

The Manager

In this game managers will assemble teams of gladiators and face off. Team size will depend on the gladiator to manager ratio. During a fight managers will need to assess when it is time to call the fight. Profits will decline if the audience is unsatisfied. New slaves are cheap and easily replaced.

You have to manage your reputation and wealth. Feeding and arming gladiators is costly, and if you bring the goods you will be payed more to show your products.

You may trade wealth and gladiators with other managers as you wish. You do not need to accept a fight that isn't in your favor, it may then be in the interest of the other manager to lend you a gladiator to balance out the fight.

AUCTION

6♥
Toh (Lion)
5♥
Killius ”Hero"
4♥
Nerdelium
4♥
Jagula
0♥
Excalia

(newcomers are free)

I will enforce any wager I am told about beforehand. Post your guess for the deadpool, its free if you have no wealth.

The Gladiator

You can ask your manager for gear each time you survive a round, and they'll toss you the closest thing around.

Advice: Please the crowd!

Random starting gear upon signup.

Progression: There are 3 acts to your career as a gladiator. Winning is important because it means staying alive but if the crowd isn't impressed, you've made no progress. You need to become, famous.

Act 1 Mook Slave (-1 appeal)
Act 2 Recognized Indenturer
Act 3  Exhabition Freeman (+1 appeal; bonus gameplay, be a boss, special events, you are retired)

GLADIATOR COMBAT RULES
1. Put your turn in a spoiler. ”GM only"
2. No PMing strategy to each other please. Banter here is welcome.
3. Set your allies. Post this -outside- the spoiler(visible to all). You can still attack these players in your turn. You can change this each round. If there are no changes you don't need to post it next time.
4. I suppose you could talk to each other through a spoiler. Like a whisper. This implies you both are very close to each other on the battlefield. Use caution. Allies only. (mutual)
Beasts CAN ally but CANT whisper.
5. I will not update sooner than 24 hours.
I will not skip players before 48 hours.

Alright Detoxicated vs Ghazkull

Detoxicated has
•Toh the lion
•Jagula with miltary fork

Ghazkull needs to assemble a team. The hag will lend her gladiators, for a small fee, they are:
•Killius
•Nerdellium

Alternatively a bear has just become available.

You both can negotiate the type of battle and rules. You can auction against each other for the bear, trade and so on. The fight should be even. See combat values:

300 Bear
275 Lion
125 Nerdelium
125 Killius
125 Jagula

Think of how you will market the battle. I will change OP subtitle to a phrase selling the matchup. The number of views this thread increases from the start to the end of the fight will determine how much you get payed. You also get a small lump sum for each contender you enter.
These are all pretty fresh fighters. Which means both are easily replaced but they don't have any damage yet. Certain crowds will want to see some blood but we're not quite there yet, ending of fight before death is completely fine at this league.

Manager negotiation are allowed to take place in PM.

How much cash do i have?

Ill buy the following with the following priority:

1. Bear
2. Killius
3. Jagula
4. Lion

As for the fight, its only fun if folks die, so Detoxicated, what will you send in? I can give you the bear or Killius and Jagula both unarmed, for an entertaining fight.

Alright, we will throw out costs and fees for now. Negotiate with each other a fairly even matchup. Think of something exciting. (see combat values)
