Battlemobs, Turn 2 Complete! Killbots gonna Kill.
« on: March 02, 2018, 01:33:17 pm »

Welcome to Battlemobs!  This thirteenth season has a whole new set of competitors in this, the one and only source for cute critter combat action.

Over the course of the next eight weeks, our teams will shape their peaceful societies of prairie dogs into ruthless killing teams.  Only one may survive to win the championship!

Now for this season, our teams are...

Mutators with Puppyguard and Ozark
Bloody Murder with Mallos
Lightning Clan with Egan_BW
Rodents of War with Pavellius
Geogophers with Beirus
Random Raiders with ziizo and Rockeater
Loffles with Secheral
Rodent Awesome with Kittytac
fluffy wabbits with leodanny
Fighting death hamsters with Midnight Jaguar


What is this?
A combat game where instead of players fighting each other, they shape intelligent, cute, animals into groups of bloodthirsty killing machines.  Fights will be resolved in a similar manner to that of wargames, and players will recieve statistics that will indicate how good their societies are at fighting.

How does it work?
Each turn is a week mechanics-wise.  In these weeks, players may introduce something to their furry minions, or they may try to reshape their society in some way.  Twice during the preparation period, magic genemodding will be possible, where the players may physically reshape their cute little ones.

After each turn, the results of your actions will be revealed to each turn.  In addition, as this is supposed to be an entertainment show, a summary of the general actions taken by all teams will be made public, although the results will remain private.  Teams may be of any size, and solo players will be allowed to compete with groups.

First off, though, are signups.  Who wants to shape cute, intelligent, tool-using prairie dogs into a combat force?  Please list the name of the team you are joining as well.

I figure at some point, you're just gonna run outta fucks to give and just off yourself whenever you get hurt at all. It's not like there's any downsides to it. Hangover? Suicide will fix that. Stubbed your toe? Suicide. Headache? Suicide. Papercut? Suicide.

You can run team Test Subject, but you're running the experiments and not being the prairie dogs.

Are Prairie dogs the only critters we can use?

Is this correct for a character sheet?

I'd like every team to start with the same critters, but it doesn't have to be prairie dogs.  Rats would work.

Roleplaying is fine..  I just need orders.  No reason you can't roleplay a war prairie dog as long as I get orders about what happens to the war prarie dogs.

The closest thing Bay12 has to a flamewar is an argument over philosophy that slowly transitioned to an argument about quantum mechanics.

The trick is to only make predictions semi-seriously.  That way, I don't have a 98% failure rate. I have a 98% sarcasm rate.
