[adwarf]

I know I want both

[Phantom]

THE LINK.
IS RIGHT THERE.

[adwarf]

I have both I mean I want finished equipment for the old one

[Phantom]

What, you can't divide all of them or at least put an hr tag?
That is an hr tag.

[adwarf]

Oh ok I will try that

[adwarf]

Ok fixed alot of stuff there gtg brb

[adwarf]

I think this is going well anyone want me or anyone else on here to help them with some game rules and or story

[Retro]

First, please stop double and triple-posting or bumping your own thread if people aren't that interested.
Second, it's not really a game repository. The archive stickied at the top of the forums already does that, one way or another.
Third, the [hr] splits aren't the best. Wouldn't it be better to put each ruleset in a different spoiler and let people open one instead of having to awkwardly scroll through all of them (assuming this was a big enough deal to actually require a thread)?

[adwarf]

Oh ok thanks for that and it also helps people work out kinks in any games they might be working on in the rules and story

kay so I was inspired to make this game by x com (but it's not a x com game) but i'm having trouble making the battle system. I want it to be free from text based instead of a grid system but I want it to have various types of weapons with different stats but I'm having trouble figuring out how to make it work against a large amount of enemys.

[adwarf]

You having trouble with the rolling for it or the stats

Take a look at any game that use large amounts of enemies.

Spoiler: Here is also something to motivate you to continue that. (click to show/hide)

Welcome to Stalingrad. You are about to begin the greatest moment of your life. The Germans have lost hundreds of tanks and planes. Hitler's brutalized hordes are now advancing towards Stalingrad over mountains of their own dead bodies. Our Bolshevik Party, our nation, our great country, has given us the task not to let the enemy reach the Volga and to defend the city of Stalingrad. Forward against the enemy! Up into the unremitting battle comrades, for Stalingrad, for our great country! Not one step back! [A Stuka attacks the boat; two soldiers jumps off into the river and Durasov shoots them] Cowards and traitors will be shot! Do not count days, do not count miles, count only the number of Germans you have killed! Kill the German! This is your mother's prayer! Kill the German! This is the cry of your Russian earth! Do not waver! Do not let up! Kill! Death to the German invader!"

Finding a way to decide how the stats should cause damage.

Skills are required to be given certain weapons and technology at the start of a mission. They can also grant bonuses to rolls for certain actions. They can be trained in between missions and can also be rewarded at the end of a mission based on your performance. For example using a gun weapon to perform some special feat may reward gunmanship experience. Using an NPC as a bodyshield might give you the Gold Shirt skill which once per mission if you are about to be killed by an enemy attack a friendly npc will sacrifice themselves to save you.   

Vehicles will also play a roll
