regarding nght-1r's card is there going to be a kazan character card

[Dark RevenantX]

Only if anyone chooses to write "kazan" in the name field rather than his/her own name.  I never said you couldn't impersonate anyone!

[Tyrian]

@Dark RevenantX:  Fixed my stats.

[Getter Robo G]

1. Representative Name - Star Dragon (my original name)

2. Skill / Knowledge / Power - skill beats knowledge, knowledge beats power, power beats skill.  -=REFER TO THE VALUE GUIDE=-  skill - 6 / Knowledge - 4 / Power - 10 (please adjust relative to ones posted if too high or low)

3. Power of Two of your Post Count - this MUST be true.  10 & 10 ?(I have 2 post counts on HLP same rating: 1434 and 1280) So are they allowed to be combined?

4. Representative Picture - If the green backgound or size is a problem let me know I'll try a diff pic


5. Representative Colors - in order of dominance: Red/Blue/Silver

6. Description of Yourself -  the description must be under 300 words. - Sometimes man, sometimes machine. No one is quite sure how this "Elite Super Robot Pilot" came to HLP (Presumably through an unstable node).  Regardless of his origins, he is here now and fights against even hopeless odds to keep the board free from "evil doers".

7. 1 to 3 Special Attributes - (1) Anime Physics: Able to make Attacks or Manuevers even in "impossible" situations.  (2) Fearless: Cannot be routed or intimidated.  (3)  Power of Passion: Each time is defeated gains +1 to attribute that caused the defeat. Once victory is attained value resets to default until next conflict.

Hope I did that right...

[Dark RevenantX]

The post counts can be combined to 2714.  2714 = 2^11

It gets increasingly difficult to get higher powers, unfortunately.  However, letting one of your attributes go higher to reach your max limit (in this case 11) can be very useful.  I suggest increasing your knowledge and power by 1.

I was delayed, and then I couldn't get onto HLP for a couple days, sorry for the tardiness, but I edited my "card" post to have the picture in it. 

[Getter Robo G]

cool, I was thinking only one stat at a time.

Say opponent A beats my card with power, so next time card is used it gains +1 power token

Next opponent is knowledge, then +1 added...

That way the bonuses for getting ass kicked keep climbing at a reasonable level till a "break point" reached.

Say opponent C finally lost. then all my card's values immediately return to defualt settings (and the exhausted pilot  chugs down a nice cold  Coke [it's the real thing!]

I wouldn't want it to be overpowered by having 2 stats increased from same battle.

[EDIT] Never mind I just reread you post and see that I misunderstood it..

You simply meant defualt stat change of Skill - 6 / Knowledge - 5 / Power - 11
(I put my highest as power cause it is a combat card, skill it there but outstripped by power, and knowlege is lacking so he needs support/Intelligence cards backing him up

Gotcha!

[Ulala]

I'm starting to wonder if I did my attributes right, they don't look like some of the others I've read. Did a screw up?

[Dark RevenantX]

As of right now the combat is going to be based off of a single die roll.

Step one: both players declare their attribute that they use (must be at EXACTLY the same time to be valid)

Step two: both players roll two six-sided dice each (four dice rolled in total).

Step three: if both players used the same attribute, skip this step.  If not, find who has the least dominant attribute.  That person must half his/her dice roll value (rounding down).

Step four: add your attribute's value to the current dice roll value

Step five: find the difference of the values, and remove that number from that card's life (the # at the top right of the card)

Example:

1: Bob (8 life, 4 skill, 6 knowledge, 6 power) is attacking Charlie (10 life, 7 skill, 9 knowledge, 4 power)  Bob chooses skill (very foolish move) and Charlie chooses knowledge (very predictable).

2: Bob rolls a 10 and Charlie a 5

3: Skill beats Knowledge, therefore Charlie's dice roll gets halved.  He now has a roll value of 2.

4: Bob has a total roll of 14 and Charlie has an 11 (the really high knowledge saved him).

5: The difference is 3.  Charlie gets 3 minor damage tokens (major damage tokens count as 5 damage each)

Bob ends his turn.  All of his cards heal one damage if they are below 50% of their max health (rounding down)


I have still yet to decide how attacking and blocking will be handled.  I am currently leaning toward the MTG-style blocking and attacking model (the attacker simply taps the card and declares "<BLAH> is attacking" and the defender chooses the blocker).  I may allow a group battle for cards if it will work.

woo now i'm seven please add +1 power and skill

Try to make it cooler...

[Dark RevenantX]

How could I make it "cooler" while retaining gameplay?

[Colonol Dekker]

Add lightsabres..................

[IPAndrews]

How about choosing what stat you want to use to attack with? Rather than the this beats that so half this bollocks? Also you want to add Pokomon style special rules for every character. Karajorma for instance is able to redirect one knowledge attack per game to his FAQ which fights on his behalf.

[Colonol Dekker]

Aldo used bombard attack.
Target is bombarded with factoids and text and 'has a seizure.


@Aldo, nothing wrong with reference material

[Ulala]

I think it's a great start.   

[Mobius]

Make new cards...in ngtm r1's card,there was a reference to FRED.Make the FRED card then.Make campaign cards as challenges,like Aeos Affair where your knowledge,skill and power combine to win.Make offtopic cards,like "pizza"....

[Herra Tohtori]

...Make offtopic cards,like "pizza"....

Just a suggestion. Why not use this kind of "off-topic" cards as one kind of "mana", like in Magic the Gathering the player needs a mana pool to throw cards into game and/or use their skills... Except instead of mana, our "mana" cards would consist of Pizza, Bosch Beer, Spacecrack, Coca-Cola, Mountain Dew and stuff like that...

I know it perfectly.

Now put those cards,DRX.

[Tyrian]

A lot of people have posted stats for their cards.  When can we see those new cards?
