  Re: When the world was young...
 
(...) Yup, that works. Thanks. Although I do like Mike's idea of each item having a possible negative as well. -W Thanks -W (22 years ago, 11-Apr-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
 
  Re: When the world was young...
 
(...) Why not set it up with two potential effects for every item, one negative and one positive? When you pick up the item, a roll of 1-2 on 1d6 means the item is the bad version, otherwise it's the good one. That means no one will have an (...) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
 
  Re: When the world was young...
 
Alright you people have way to much free time at work so I'll post something quick before I get to far behind. Summary: -Each team has ten magic items (number them one through ten) -30 suitcases (small container) are placed on the field randomly (...) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) If it's any consolation, I've just about finished building a Medieval Battleship, which I was going to name the "LFB Pinafore". Hmm, maybe not.

  Re: When the world was young...
 
(...) I like the idea that all effect are still possible. Adds sort of a Schrodinger's-cat effect to the trooper who picks up an item. The only thing is, doesn't that mess up the point spread? You can't construct items if you're assigning random (...) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) Wow. I've been watching the deliberations, and I only wish I could play. Nuts. Would someone please name a horse, a tree, or a ballista (or a ball of flaming pitch, if you're so inclined) in my honor? That way I can be there in spirit. best (...)

  Re: When the world was young...
 
(...) Just to be a royal pain, I'd forgo this caveat altogether. 1000 CP per player. If other people decide they can play (Hendo ... where are you?), then they can add another 1000 CP as well. The unlucky team is the one that doesn't have as many (...) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
 
  Re: When the world was young...
 
(...) Works for me-- I had been thinking we could just have a CP pool for magic items, but this works just as effecitvely. Each team makes 5 to 10 magic items, none of which can exceed 20 CP? Sounds ok to me... Maybe we can play around with magic (...) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

  Re: When the world was young...
 
(...) Well, I'm a total newbie when it comes to comprehending the technical details like CP here. And maybe this idea has already been brought up. Correct me if I am wrong, but the problem is that we want magic items that get tied to the unit that (...) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

  Re: When the world was young...

Plus, people would know in advance what *their* items did and would be less/more likely to pick them up (...) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-03, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

So, Shaun will lose? Then, by association, Evil Wayne will lose. Evil Wayne cannot lose. Evil Wayne, who, apparently likes to talk in annoying 3rd person, will not simply stand aside and allow the forces of good-and-just to turn his team's troops (...)
