ok, this is more a test of a method to hold spacebattles on a forum. I've been inspired by the Battlestar Galactica board game.
The focus of this game is the Axiom. The large spaceline cruiser of the disney movie Wall-E. It is attacked by Heartless and only you and your gummi ships can save it. (remember they still have 700 years to go of their 5 year cruise)
GAME MECHANICS.
you see a large picture of the Axiom in space, and the space around the ship is divided in 6 sectors. North, NorthEast, SouthEast, South, Southwest, Northwest. Your ship is always located in one of these sectors.
you can only attack targets that are in the sector your in.
Each round you can move 1 sector. Clockwise or counterclockwise. you don't have to move if you don't want to.
Each round you can attack 1 ship. this is done by a dice roll by me. (1 and 2 are miss, 3, 4, 5 and 6 are hit) You only need 1 hit to kill a small heartless.
After each round, you can be attacked by all the heartless that are in your sector. again by dice roll. (only 5 and 6 are hit)
your gummi ship has 3 hitpoints.
You also have 1 bomb, a bomb will clear a sector of all heartless. They can only be recharged by entering the hangar.
Heartless can only move or attack, not both in the same round.
You begin in the South sector, since there is the hangar bay. To enter the ship for repairs, you must be in the south sector.
you are represented by a gummi ship with your name.
When you are destroyed, you need to wait a round before you can launch again.
In each round that the heartless have no gummi ships to fight, they will attack the Axiom. Heartless will attack the axiom if there are no gummi ships in the sector they're currently in or in the adjacent sectors.
Each sector has a number of hitpoints. When 1 sector reaches 0, the game is lost.
If a sector is free of heartless, the hull will repair itself slowly each round.
After each round, a dice roll will determen how many new heartless will join the fight.
The maximun amount of heartless to be in a sector at any given time is 6. If a sector is full, then no more heartless can join that sector.
So far I only have 1 type of gummi fighter and 1 type of enemy. But in the future it could be expanded and made more interresting and give it more variation.
PLAYING
playing is simple. post you want to enter and i'll modify the map with a gummi ship with your name under it. Each round you can post to move clockwise or counter clockwise and or attack. When you are in the south sector you can always enter the ship for repairs or to reload your bomb. Entering and leaving are move actions.
So who's with me. In the current starting map, there are 3 heartless in the NorthEast sector and 3 heartless in the Southeast sector. And only me in a gummi ship in the south sector.
AXIOMN sector: 20 HP
NE sector: 20 HP
SE sector: 20 HP
S sector: 20 HP
SW sector: 20 HP
NW sector: 20 HP
IUMA: 3 HP / 1 bomb
