DeffRace vs Gangsters: Forumized Crime
« on: April 03, 2018, 07:39:09 am »

The Forum Games board has seen multiple SPAMgames, Arms Races and (most recently) Hurt&Heal. Whilst they're all well and good, I imagine people would like to see something different. I have been thinking about a couple of games that are a little bit different, and would thus like your opinions on which I should develop further and run here.

Our options are:

DeffRace - Scavenge the battlefield for parts to build your very own orky race car! Or a racing bike, Or a Tank. To be honest, the requirements are pretty loose. Once built, race against your competitors to be the first one around the course. Ramming your opponents is required, and bullying a coupla grots into firing your pintel-mounted shootas is highly recommended.

Gangsters: Forumized Crime - Deep in the prohibition, the citizens of New Temperance have had their many vices outlawed. Seeing the opportunity, gang bosses step in to provide a much needed service, extorting local businesses, taking over rival businesses and fighting for control of the underworld.

Both of those sound fun. How were you thinking of running the gangster one? As a multiplayer affair or suggestion game?

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

I'd quite like Gangs.

It's really easy to get into Coc; trust me, all you need is one taste of Coc and you'll be begging for more! I wasn't even sure I would like Coc until after I got a taste, and now I'm all about Coc!

Y'know, there should really be a better abbreviation for Call of Cthulhu.

I'd initially thought of it as multiplayer, because I'm a glutton for overly complicated games, however it could quite easily be a suggestion game. That would allow everyone to actually know what was going on, as in a multiplayer game, most of the actions and results would be secret.

I like the sound of both, but if I had to chose I would go with the race one.

Why not combine the two? Have us scavenge for parts to make war-vehicles for our gangs, then do jobs, heists and fights to take control of the criminal underworld/get better parts for our vehicles?

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.

Damnit people, this is why I said to keep the truce. Because now everyone's ganging up on the cats.
Also, don't forget to contact your local Eldritch Being(s), so that they can help with our mission to destroy the universe.

I really like the sound of this right here.

Still mostly a tie. Maybe you should fuse them after all!

I'd rather not have them fused to be honest...
