Bmode only

[Debaglio]

Raziel, I like your idea.

I think that one there is one thing to be added.

WAR..... is A BMODE ONLY THING

There is no RP WARing on PMODE>>>>>
That is called RP agrivation. If someone declares WAR... you better make dang well sure you and your fighters are on BMODE.

A pmode WAR is a joke.

No, a p-mode war is a true roleplaying battle.

Have you ever RP'ed somewhere without a built-in battle system?

It happens all the time.

Agreed.

What kind of RP is it when someone is destroying fortifications on your island and you can't do anything to stop them? Invincibility? Perhaps someone should lose their pmode status as soon as they attack a player or fortification.

b-mode is a horrible excuse for roleplaying if I ever heard it.

My Zormite character conquered Dustari, Samurai, Bomy Gang, etc SINGLEHANDEDLY. How on earth would an unexperienced character kill me?

Can someone give an example of how an RP-only war would look like? I'm SERIOUSLY interested how that would work in GK.

And once again, I'll state that I think RP and game mechanics can be blissfully wed in GK.

Here's my idea of a RP war.
The sides involved, get together with the RP Team, and create a story behind the war, plus they decide the outcome BEFORE IT HAPPENS.

Then, the actual war and events can go on,follow the story created, but must somehow end with the outcome decided on.

The rest is up to the creative RPing of those involved.

The reason and causes for the war should be voice RP wise. There should always be an in character reason for starting a war.

the war, itself, as far as battles go, I believe should be done in bmode.

Have you ever RPed in a system that doesn't give you damage and such for pvp? Val is a good example (unless it's changed since I've been there) All actions are said, and unless you can think of a good counter to the attack within your character's limitations, you take the hit.

Also another example of pmode fighting working is the Naval battles. There's not any player killing in those, the ships are the ones who get destroyed.

Also Etien in later posts you seem to think the kingdom tagged poeple make up the whole of a kingdom. Not so at all. "Players" in a kingdom are to be viewed as key people. Think of it like The Iliad. There were a few key characters. However, there were entire armies fighting with thousands of unnamed men, etc. You can imagine kingdom wars like this. With the players being your key people, but (in RP, as the game mechanincs don't support it) there is actual a huge war involving massive armies going on. Just because 8 people are fighting in the game engine, doesn't mean the nation only has that many people in its army in RP- that would be a joke.

Valikorlia's RP battle system works off of many things. I like to think it has the best fighting system actually XD. Basicly you would do things that your character would do as roleplayed actions *approaches with sword sheathed* stuff like that. However, you are mistaken on the counter-logic to avoid hit. You're supposed to use logic to determine when you are hit, and sometimes you need to just take the hit to make the battle a battle. No one will RP with you if you dodge everything. Like my last battle on there, I was fighting a Berserker (humanoids who gain extreme speed and strength in battle, They could break backbones with a simple hug) and I knocked him out stone cold in return for a broken arm; He was applying pressure on my left arm as I was beating his face in with my right.

Well, Naval battles are also supposed to be boardings and whatnot.

Very good comparison
