If you haven't already, go sign up through the link in my sig.

Yes I know this is sorta like the Arena, but this is different.
Every day if people are engaged in a battle, I will draw up the scene using inkscape and then post it.

First off, there are two teams.

The Red Team
and
The Blue Team

Whenever someone makes a character they have to choose either the Blue or Red Team to join.

The next step:

After you choose a class and have all of the info down(Like posted above) add your name at the top, and your team choice. Right now I am considered leader of both Blue and Red team, but eventually there will be a Free-For-All tourney to decide the leaders of both teams. The tourney for this will only happen once there is atleast 5 players on each team.
__________________________________________________ _______________
Then once you are on a team, you can face others in combat. Just alert me about it, and then send me your first actions in a message, and I will create the Battlefield thread with the update as soon as I can.

There will be achievements that you can do in-game, once you reach 10 achievments totally unlocked, you will all vote on whether I should bring in a new class(and then what kind of class) or if I should make a new arena.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Wait, there is more then one arena?
Yup! There are currently 4 arenas, one for each season. Each one is different and randomly chosen for fights. Some have advantages of being in them, and some have disadvantages.

Are there ways to get new items?
Yes! Once Both Blue and Red team have 5 players on them, I will begin the very first tournament! It won't be the Leader one, that one comes after it.
It's called the Roy Greenhilt Team Tourney! The winning team recieves a special Item. The item is an artifact that has to do with the Tourney itself.

What's an Artifact?
Each team for every tourney, 1 vs. 1, or Team Deathmatch can only use 2 artifacts. Artifacts are recieved from completing tournaments. The special OoTs named ones that are Team Tourneys, are always going to yield a team artifact. There are special class ones that give items that will give special items that will greatly help that class!

How many characters can you make?
You can only make 2 characters. Special exceptions will be made in some cases I deam fit. And the 2 characters will have to be on seperate teams.

You mentioned that You can recieve an item for winning a tourney, does this mean there will be a team headquarters?
Yup! Once a team wins a tournament, they recieve a trophy that is put in their team headquarters. Once a team gets a trophy is when I show them their base!

How many achievements are there?
Hundreds!

How many bullets are there in a clip?
10

What actions can you take?
Each round you can take a Attack Action and a Move action. You can choose to turn your Attack Action into a Move action, but not the other way around! Also, reloading is a Attack Action, unless you have a class that uses a clip. If your class uses a clip then reloading is a free action.
Characters can move 5 spaces as a move action.


How is damage done?
Lets take an example.

A Basic Assault is shooting a medic. So that is a fire rate of 2 times the Basic Assault's attack 4. Equaling a total damage of 8. Then the medic has a defence of 4, you then take 8 Minus 4, and that is how much damage you deal to their Hp!

What is Accurate, Wide Spread, Narrow Spread mean?
Accurate means that it will not miss. Wide Spread means that the bullets move out in a way like a cone of cold does. Making the chance of hitting the person go down. I roll for to see if it hits with Wide Spread. Narrow Spread is much like accurate, but it has a 10% chance to go off course.

Is there any money involved?
Not as of right now, but I hope to soon include a betting option. And the money you get from that you will be able to buy items. You do start out with a full supply of stuff every time you start a match.

When does this begin?
The battlefield starts on next Monday! Remember! For each fight it is one update each day.

From the Rules:
What actions can you take?
Each round you can take a Attack Action and a Move action. You can choose to turn your Attack Action into a Move action, but not the other way around! Also, reloading is a Attack Action, unless you have a class that uses a clip. If your class uses a clip then reloading is a free action.
Characters can move 5 spaces as a move action

Also, as shown above, you can initiate fighting at any moment, but that doesn't mean your shots will hit.
