Looking for interest in Gladiator Arena game
« on: May 05, 2010, 08:58:28 pm »
I working on putting together some rules for a gladiator arena game, that will include a strategic (school management) and tactical (gladiator fights) layer.
I'm looking for what kind of interest there is for this, so I can get an idea of how I want to set it up.
The game will be based in the DF world in a new human town being built around gladiatorial combat.

The game will generally be updated weekly with turn done on weekends, however its possible things could go faster if all turns get in. My daily update focus is on my RTD.

So sign up if you are interested and can be sure you can post at least one turn a week by PM for a game with moderately complicated rules.
Once I get an idea of how many are interested and I finish ironing out my rules. Ill post the first page of the game and we can get going.

The primary focus will be on running your gladiator school, and not specifically the gladiator as a character themselves.

Oh I've got the rules, they just aren't entirely completed so not in posting form. That and I plan on shaping the strategic part based on how many people are interested. (which will involve building your gladiator camp and crafting weapons ala DF   just simplified for the purposes of being able to run it here)

The tactical part will have you giving your gladiators general orders about how you want them to fight, then ever few turns of the fight or so Ill allow you to update your orders to them. I already pretty much have the rules for the tactical game down.

Well, you know how if you take your thumb and forefinger and hold them up to your eye, you can make it look like you're squishing someone's head? It's like that, only for real.

I sign this Gladiator to battle under my name and bring me Glory and Gold, which ever comes first...
