Event Ideas!

I just woke up and this idea came!
Special Spar Arena... a little bar pops up next to your normal HP... each person has 10hp... and whatever weapon they use does 1 damage... regening of that special hp is disabled... therefore we won't have people bickering about people having better stuff than the other person!

Sounds nice.
I think its worth coding.
But spar will be always a bit unfair.
Good Comps and Broadband will always own old comps on dialup.

The ide is good. Healingpotions and spells should be disabled. And the same ac / wc for everyone, maybe.

It would be quite like classic spars for that matter... I think the idea is good, but personally, I'd go further - have a special spar arena where the EM can controle what's on and what's not - like, disable spells, disable weapons, maybe even armour, set everyone to the same ac/wc/hp... it would be nice, and offer new possibilities, but I believe it's a bugger to code.

I am hoping to have a special spar coded in our Dustari Acadamy of Arms if I can get it done - and it would be usable elsewhere of course, which uses a 'point' system. You would be able to set the point total for a win before hand, and everytime you are in a contact-zone (ie, where an AC check would occur) it is a one point hit regardless of wc/ac.

I also was thinking about possible having a hit warp both players back to starting points, or at least force them both to touch them before another point can be scored.

That would prevent 'repeat hits' and also hit backs, so it would be more like irl martial art sparring.

bamboo would own

so fast and mad nice reach

wouldn't just train with bamboo though

the purpose would be to train in what is more important that AC and WC - not getting hit and hitting without getting hit.

Movement is the largest factor in combat (unless you can't break the enemy's ac at all)

@Padren: I'm looking forward to it, tell me if you need a sheep to test some blunt things on

Ah, reminds me of a lumber axe only last-man-standing I had once...
