Pirate fight at the Admiral Benbow [Concluded]

[Sasaki Kojiro]

In honor of talk like a pirate day, I decided to do a remake of the "gunfight at the ok corral" game with a pirate theme. I did some tweaks to the fighting system so that it won't be over so quickly.

**********************************

The Admiral Benbow, a small inn located in a small town, was mainly frequented by seafarers. Sometimes it housed pirates, sometimes British officers.



Tonight, by unfortunate chance, it housed both. At first they kept a sort of uneasy truce, making show of their weapons but not attacking. But then one of the officers saw one of the pirates acting in a quite inappropriate manner with one of the wenches. He called him a lowly cur, and the pirate captains parrot called him a lowly cur right back and a fight broke out.


The innocent bystanders who were just attempting to have a quiet drink rushed for the exit, and when the opened the door a thick fog blew in.

Ok, so that's the best excuse I could come up with for people not knowing who is who


Looking for 9-13 people. No night or day periods, actions are taken in the thread, I'll post the results when I check the thread.

sorry but imma have to pull out as im going to sleep soon

[Sasaki Kojiro]

I probably won't start the game until tomorrow. At least until I have 11 people.

I might also make the interval longer. Maybe 6 hours. Don't want to make the game too long, but it shouldn't completely come down to who is online when. I think 6 hour will be good.

[taka]

can we send orders in early?

[Sasaki Kojiro]

There is no sending of orders, it's all in the thread. And you don't have to be here every six hours. If you get attacked you will try and block automatically, and then if you happen to check with in six hours you can counterattack. Otherwise you can just try and do a regular attack.

[Splitpersonality]

In in in in in please.

[Double A]

In as long as you don't start the game at 2:30 EST.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

In as long as you don't start the game at 2:30 EST.

I'll be watching the bengals...crush...yes, let's go with crush the packers.

[Double A]

Huh?

Well I'm gonna be at a college watching a play from 2:30 to whenever it ends, so yeah that could be a few hours.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

OK, sending out pm's (assuming that those who signed up but withdrew because of the 2 hour deadline and having to leave still want to play).

Different roles have different abilities, but basically you can attack someone with your weapon once every six hours. The exception being if you are fighting someone, they block your attack and you block their counterattack, you can counterattack without waiting six hours. They have a certain % chance to block (this is done automatically whether they are present or not). If block is successful, then they can counterattack with a higher chance of success. If hit, they can't do anything for six hours and lose 1/3 of their fighting ability. 3 hits and you die, 2 hits and you have a chance at being mortally wounded and dying even if you survive the fight. You will have some creative leeway with how you attack someone, but it has to be with the weapon I give you in your role pm. There aren't bolded code words that you have to post like "Attack:Sasaki, instead you say something like "stabs sasaki with sword" or however you want to say it, as long as it uses your weapon.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Pm's sent, game has started.

[Tratorix]

I stab General Hankercheif with my sword. En guarde!

[GeneralHankerchief]

I block with my cutlass and attempt to counterattack.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Peering through the fog, Tratorix sees another man with a sword and stabs at him recklessly. GeneralHankerchief deflects the blade with his own sword, kicks tratorix in the kneecap and hacks his shoulder with his cutlass.

Oww, my shoulder.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Now, does the successful counterattack mean I can't attack for another six hours or can I go for Tratorix again?

[Sasaki Kojiro]

You are both out for six hours. You are still able to block if attacked however, while he is not.

[GeneralHankerchief]

*GH calls out loudly in the tavern that there's a punching bag here that's ready for some action for the next six hours, and to come and get some.*

[taka]

En guarde! En guarde! punching bag! punching bag!
