Insanowar Central/Sign up Thread

[Castaras]

I'd like to sign up for this.

[Lady Tialait]

I would like to try this game. Sounds cool.

[Bahumat]

*waves hand in the air*

Insanowar = awesomesauce. I wanna be in toooooo!

[Darkcomet]

Hmmm. If we get enough players, I could set something up for you guys, though I won't be playing myself.

[Robert Blackletter]

I be up for a game if you want to get started.

[Darkcomet]

Hm...*counts* We have 3 players looking for one now, but there's also Castaras, but that was over a month ago, and looking at her sig I'm not sure if she'll be available for one.

[Castaras]

Yeah, you'll have to find another player other than me. Sorry.

[Fan]

Ah what the hell, might as well.

*raises hand*

[Darkcomet]

Right, so, that's four. One more and I'll set something up. May as well start asking available players now:

What game type would you want? (Normal, Space, that Defender variant I posted on page 1?)

In addition, would you prefer a simple map or something with more special stuff on the map, such as the Soulshards from Insanowar 2 that allowed for a resurrection?

[Bahumat]

Cool with anything.

[Robert Blackletter]

The defender one could be cool, if anyone up for it? Otherwise cool with any!

[Darkcomet]

I'll need one more player if you guys decide to play my Defender variant. Otherwise I can always just set up a 4-player game, but you need an odd number for that particular variant.

[Rogue Nine]

Throw my name in the hat for *looks at the list, counts posts, loses count, starts over, gets bored* I don't know, Insanowar 13? 27?

42?

[Darkcomet]

Honestly, I'm inclined to drop the number off this one, since it's going to be a variant.

I'll send PMs when the thread's up and I've picked out the Defender.

[UncleWolf]

Well, if you guys don't mind. I'll be glad to join as a second defender. That way it'd be 4vs2 teams.

[Darkcomet]

It works out in my head, at least-two separate Defenders makes it less likely that the separate teams will swarm an individual one.

[Project_Mayhem]

Wanting to join this! So much!

Edit: this referring to the next insanowar game

Count me interested as well.

As for my plans...

Eh, let's just say it involves Kobolds. Lots and Lots of Kobolds.

[Project_Mayhem]

Shoggoths > Kobolds

[Robert Blackletter]

Well if you can get 3 more I am more then happy to host,

[billtodamax]

Sure, I'll throw my hat in the ring as a player.

[Robert Blackletter]

Cool, that three so I start asking, is there any particular variant you want to play or you guys happy with classic? are you happy with This idea of a reactive game?

[billtodamax]

I'd prefer to play classic, if it's all the same to you two, and I have no opinion either way on the proposed rule.

[Project_Mayhem]

Classics ok - I've never played, so I'm not sure which rule works better. I vote DM's choice.

Feel free to say 'PM you fool, you're being too overpowered and unfair!'

If I am

Not just randomly.

On that note, what's the upper limit of power for the choices?

[happyturtle]

PM you fool, you're being too--

Oh. Not randomly.

Damn.

The game host usually sets the power level. FWIW, I've found the higher the power level the less interesting it is to me as a bystander. You end up with god like beings resisting everything thrown at them.

[horngeek]

*snerk*

Incidentally, I'd like to sign up.

...my plan involves Gilgamesh. The Fate/Stay Night one.

No, he will not use Ea at full power. I have little interest in destroying the world. ...I'll limit Ea use to what we've seen him pull in the anime.

And I'm for that rule. I had one thing in my Insanowar game where a guy got killed by something that he should have been able to regen from (Uliquorra Clifer has MASSIVE regen) before I got to do... anything with him.

When I specifically took low-powered choices with the other choices so him being on my side would be balanced. Yeah.

[happyturtle]

Okay, IF I were to run an insanowar game, and IF I were to say 'no anime allowed', would people want to play? Not there there is anything wrong with anime picks, but non-anime players and bystanders are often at a loss, especially when a team is almost all anime.

* Hopefully nobody takes this the wrong way. After all, an 'all anime' insanowar is also a perfectly valid theme that someone could run.

** Very big 'IF's

[Project_Mayhem]

...

That wouldn't affect my core strategy. It would be mildly annoying, but dealwithable

Of course I think Robert Blackletter is running my game, so go for it :p

[happyturtle]

Yeah, I don't intend to pull players out of the game Robert's setting up. This would be a hypothetical future game that may or may not ever exist.

...sorry, I wouldn't play that. At all.

I'll go for Robert's game.
