did you get my action for next round btw?

Spoiler: also stuff for the future of Mage Mash?

so thurhame had that revised spell list for the purpose of teams, and i wanted to do a redux of this with a tabletop twist (tile-based mechanics)... so i decided that maybe both would work pretty well together

i made the map like just now



the columns can give people cover (you can walk behind the top two columns of course), and i'm

hoping

the shape/water of the arena allows for interesting tactics in placement.

i also expanded thurhame's spell list and added a new element in Dark Magic. meditating for it costs a hitpoint in addition to a turn, but the spells should be relatively useful in a tile-based game. i'd have to add ranges to all of the already made spells though

Name	Range	Cost	Description
Ghost Hand	1 tile within a 4 tile range.	1 Dark Mana	Enables the caster to cast spells originating from the designated tile rather than the caster themself. The hand has 1 HP, is a valid target for spells, and is damaged by healing spells.
Blindness	1 unobstructed target within 7 tiles.	1 Dark Mana	Inflicts blindness, which forces the target to roll a two-sided die whenever casting a spell that requires a target. A 1 means that the spell fails.
Skeleton	1 tile within a 4 tile range	2 Dark Mana	Creates a mod-controlled skeleton with 2 HP. The skeleton has a melee attack that deals 1 damage to an adjacent target, can move 6 tiles per turn, is a valid target for spells, and is damaged by healing spells.
Blood Mana	Self	2 Dark Mana (or 3 HP to cast without meditating)	Gain 1 mana of 2 different elements.
Equilibrium	1 unobstructed target within 7 tiles.	3 Dark Mana	The HP of the caster and the target are both averaged together. The value (rounded down) is now the HP of both the caster and the target.

might have to tweak it a little but i definitely want to test it out. also undecided on whether dark mana can be fused with other types. curse would probably be moved to Dark+Fire in that case.

also probably going to add some degree of player customization - like the ability to specialize in certain elements (maybe every even turn you get +1 mana of that element, or +1 HP if you specialize in dark magic), an extra hitpoint or two, better movement range, etc..

basically i just need to playtest this and get interest in a co-mod (mostly because this might get complicated and i'm also scared to ask for PT access as a newb ) so that's why i'm posting here. dunno when i'd start this tho

[vonflare]

I've got some nice ideas for the next installment, which hopefully will balance the game and make it flow quicker, but I am always open to suggestions. I like the board system, I'll see what I can do with that. And feel free to host your own version if you like

[gigabyteTroubadour]

aight

kinda want to co-mod if you do the board but if ur doing free-for-all w/o it then i'd be happy to host a team/board version in a separate thread

[vonflare]

I'd be up for that

[gigabyteTroubadour]

!!

let's talk soonish

i wanna playtest/see how complicated this'll get before i commit tho

[Thurhame]

thurhame lightning bolts JDGA (what a meanie)

Lightning Bolt > Harkonnen97 [aka Kuroi#2]

What part of that says JDGA?

Also, what actions did JDGA and STD do?

[vonflare]

jdga is harkonen

they were replaced

and STD missed his action and used forcefield, sorry.

[Thurhame]

No, JDGA replaced StaplerTowel. KuroiXHF

#2

replaced Harkonnen. I attacked the latter, not the former.

And you still haven't said what JDGA's action was.

[vonflare]

JDGA did not take an action.

And the replacement thing I'll fix when I get to a computer. Thurhame attacked kurio not JDGA.

[KuroiXHF]

My username isn't that difficult to spell. :\

[Thurhame]

quick-and-dirty status list

KuroiXHF#2: Dead
Save The Dragons: FWEAA 4hp
JDGA:

gigabyteTroubador: FFFEEAA 4hp cursed

[JDGA]

My replacement wasn't confirmed until the results post went up <_<

[KuroiXHF]

What? I'm still alive.

[Thurhame]

You had two hitpoints and channeled water and I lightning bolted you.

[gigabyteTroubadour]

vonflare, you get my action?

i think since there's so few of us we probably would want to like have some notification of how many people submitted actions

[KuroiXHF]

I didn't channel.

[gigabyteTroubadour]

stapler has missed 3 actions in a row and has been replaced. welcome JDGA!
