ABOUT
It's time I move forward on this. This is PANIC ARENA 6. As the sequel to ArenaCraft, the mechanics are gunna work (almost) the same. Hopefully things will be a little cleaner, a little smoother, and we'll start with a comic from the beginning.

Art I make for this will also be featured on my Patreon (https://patreon.com/whalecrycomics?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator). By joining you give me permission for anything you submit for this game to be referenced in my art.

There will now be an IC Thread (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=177809.0) and OC Thread (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=178891.0), which I posted when I began planning this.

You get 1 teammate, which you can discuss in OOC. Choose a captain (can speak for both of you if needed), and a team nickname.

This battle takes place on an iceberg, a massive icy platform floating in a turbulent Southern Ocean. As a special condition of this arena, if you don't move the turn after a movement, you will continue 1 more space. All audience interference will be related to fire, explosions, and heat. This is a bastard game. Meaning the silliness may exceed fairness, and I can't be trusted to be telling you the truth.

Sign-Up by describing yourself appearing in the arena. Describe what you are wearing, your physical appearance, and give us a flavor of your persona. (You may bring a weapon and outfit. They will be treated as cosmetic, no different than close-range fist fighting or being in pajamas.)

ABOUT
I've been struggling to decide what project to iterate on next between two: Panic Arena, and SquadCraft. I decided to compromise, in this game I will take the cards of the former and the hex grid and accompanying mechanics of the later. There will be no fog-of-war, this is an open arena...

I plan to use some Blender 3D art. I do not know how to use Blender. This is less for your immersion, and more for embarrassing myself enough to try to get better. Expect absolute shit.

This is an extremely "player empowering" game, practically my most, from a host who specializes in it. That being said, expect the fallout of that power to be a bastard game, where I, the host, may lie.

There is one deck all players will draw from. If 'P' is the total number of players, then the deck is composed of 12 × P basic cards. Every 5 turns 1 legendary card is added to the deck, plus P - 1 star cards.

#####################################################
Object of the Game

Welcome to the PANIC ARENA. Where challengers step up to test themselves on the battlefield of imagination.

Each of you will assume the role of a Team Leader, commander of what and who you summon. The object is to use your cunning and creativity to outwit and adapt to your rivals and their forces. Use the power of the PANIC CARDS (Red, Blue, Yellow, and Green) to conquer the arena and claim your legacy as Champion!

In a game like this expect surprises.


#####################################################
Game Play

Play is divided into 2 phases: Decision Phase, where each player tells The Judge their actions in private, and the Reveal Phase, where players reveal these actions to each other.

Each turn, all players must:

• Take actions or skip their turn
• Draw 1 card to add to their hand

After The Judge reveals the outcome of everyone's plot, the turn is over and everyone receives another PANIC CARD.


#####################################################
Actions

Basic Actions

MOVEMENT/ENGAGEMENT

Your typical humanoid movement will allow you to move 1 space. If you are attacked by an adjacent enemy, you will fail to move.

RUNNING

You can spend 1000 stamina to move an extra space. You may pay this more than once for more spaces. If you run and have less than 1000 stamina left, you will be forced to rest. If you end a run on someone's space, you tackle them. If you end a straight run of 3 spaces on someone's space, you push them.

Quote from: 3

1. Auto-Melee Movement

Rulebook:

"RANGED-ATTACKS

You must aim where a target 'will-be' to hit."

Clarification: If you do a melee attack, you only need to choose a target. Ranged attacks on the other hand you must aim where.


2. Running Types:

Walk: (normal) 1 space.
Jog: 2 spaces.
Sprint: 3 spaces.

You can say you will Jog over to someone to do a melee attack, and if they are only a space away then you will walk instead. If they are more than a couple spaces, you will not sprint to meet them. You can do the same by saying you will Sprint, but take a less exhausting pace if not needed.

Rest: If you do not move, attack or dodge any attacks, you restore all stamina.

MELEE-ATTACKS

Light Attacks cost the target 500 stamina to dodge. You can spend 500 stamina for a Medium Attack that costs 1000 stamina to dodge, or you can spend 1000 stamina for a Heavy Attack that costs 2000 stamina to dodge. If you couldn't afford double this cost, then you will be forced to rest.

RANGED-ATTACKS

You must aim where a target 'will-be' to hit.


Card Actions

You can play as many at once as desired.

SUMMONS
You can create more permanent constructs to aid you in battle. Their ownership will be represented by a card in your hand. You may unsummon them at any time. If summons and penalty cards would prevent you from drawing a card, you wont be able to summon. Thus the maximum is 2 summons. This can be weapons, armor, minions, obstacles, and more.


The Stack

Quote from: 4

1) Resolution Order:

1st Beat: Opening

• Self.
• Summoned Equipped Permanent Completes.
• Adjacent Melee. Prioritize light, medium, then heavy.
• Adjacent Spell.
• Ranged-Attacks/Spells/Summons. Prioritize shortest distance.
• Movement.

2nd Beat: Follow-Up

• Self.
• Summoned Equipped Permanent Completes.
• Repositioned or Pursuit Melee. Prioritize light, medium, then heavy.
• Adjacent Spell.
• Ranged-Attacks/Spells/Summons. Prioritize shortest distance.

3rd Beat: Wrap-Up

• Summoned Unit/Tile Completes. A unit wont be able to act.
• All passive effects. Prioritize self, then shortest distance.
• Bomb detonation.
• Eggs from last turn hatch.
• Audience pieces arrive.
• Extra cards destroyed.
• Rewards delivered.
• New cards dealt.
• Arena elevation adjustments.

Tiebreakers:
1. The unit that performed less actions first.
2. Fewer cards spent on the action.
3. Initiative roll.

Note: Receiving a penalty card will immediately end your turn.

Note: Actions that would be Post-Movement will still be delayed if your movement was interrupted.

2) Clarification: Being forced to rest will not prevent card plays. But stamina will not be replenished until you do nothing for a full turn(or take a hit).

Quote from: wip

1st Beat: Opening

    Self.
    Summoned Equipped Permanent Completes.
    Melee. Prioritize light, medium, then heavy.
    Adjacent Spell.
    Movement.
    Ranged-Attacks/Non-Adjacent Spells. Prioritize shortest distance.

STAMINA

You begin with 2000 stamina! You will dodge most attacks, which will deplete your stamina and make you vulnerable for an injury or fatal blow. Being injured gives you an adrenaline rush that restores stamina.

INJURIES

Injuries may also inhibit you in some way. Maximum stamina will decrease.

FATIGUE/REST

Each time you get an adrenaline rush, you will get a fatigue counter. You lose 200 stamina each turn for each counter. Rest (do nothing for a turn) to remove a fatigue counter and recuperate stamina. You will be forced to rest if you run out of stamina because of fatigue.

Quote from: 5

1) Completely Exhausted: In this state you have no stamina left for stronger attacks or farther movement. You can still move 1 space, and perform a light melee attack however if you do either you will not satisfy the conditions for "Rest". Cards however, can still be played without stopping you from resting.

LAWS/AUDIENCE INFLUENCE

The audience will have the chance to vote for arbitrary laws that will take effect on a later turn. These may reward(star card) or punish(penalty card) certain forms of play.

There will be 1 law in effect on the 4th turn, and 2 laws in effect on a turn after that and going forward, with a law staying in play for 2 turns.

An audience member who votes for a Law will earn Panic Points they can spend to influence the battle.


#####################################################
Drawing Cards

After taking actions, players must draw 1 card from the deck to add to their hand. If the deck runs out, IT will come...


Hand Limit
Players have a hand limit of 3 cards. If a player was to draw with the hand limit reached, then the least valuable and oldest card will be discarded. The value, from low to high is: basic, star, legendary, permanent.

Card Types

BASIC:

For information about the various basic, judgement, and legendary cards, see the first post.


#####################################################
Playing as an Audience Member

There is no limit to the number of additional participants. Spectators can actually influence the battlefield too!

Start by cheering for a team. The judge will then record that you have obtained an egg associated with that team...


Eggs

Depending on which team(s) you cheer for will determine its' behavior when it hatches.
• Soldier(Only 1 Team): Target nearest enemy. Gain points = egg cheers if the team wins. Then leaves.
• Mercenary(Multiple/All Teams): Target nearest enemy. Enemy is team with least cheers. Gain 1 point each turn, up to egg cheers. Then leaves.
• Assassin(All But 1 Team): Target enemy leader. Gain points = egg cheers if the leader dies. Then leaves.
• Paladin(All Teams Evenly): Target audience bombs and give medical aid to unengaged challengers. Gain 1 point each turn, up to egg cheers. Then leaves.

 You can choose an open spot to place it. But not the same phase in which you received it. I can only accept egg placements by PM. Dolls for your egg are available in the PANIC SHOP.

If you cheer for different teams within the same turn (regardless of phase) the old cheer will be overwritten by the new one.

The Judge hands out eggs at the turn's end.

In addition to receiving and teaching eggs, cheering will also earn you PANIC POINTS...

Panic Points
The PANIC POINTS you've been collecting by cheering can now be spent on Dolls for your Egg, Bombs to the throw in the arena, and...more! Cheering only counts once per turn, but you may do so in either phase. If there are already 3 pieces in the arena from Audience Members, any more that are deployed, will be returned to you. 1 piece per person. You can unsummon (destroy) your own piece.


High Council
The judge can appoint passionate audience members onto the High Council which vote in private on the laws for future turns. Participation here is another source of PANIC POINTS.

Additional laws can now be purchased in the PANIC STORE and can be used to replace an "empty" law. Any of which rotating in later than the next turn.


#####################################################
End of the Game

Defeat
A player is defeated if any of the following conditions occur:

• A player is killed.
• A player surrenders.
• A player receives a 3rd Penalty Card.
• The judge declares a player unwilling or unable to continue within a timely manner.

Victory
Last one standing.

Her demonic heritage is apparent in her summoning here today, her staff forged from imps, and her clothing bloody.
She is sure to bring fire to the Arena today. Do not let her otherwise unremarkable looks fool you viewers. This girl is hot when it comes to luck.

The announcer blinks, then looks at the guest-list to see that he was always there, somehow.

/ Prologue /

Metal on metal sparks as talons skid down the chains. A metal bird lands heavily in the arena.

The flightless beast is ridden by a small boy. He wears a metal gauntlet, which he lifts in the air to command attention.

"It's been awhile since we've done one of these." There is a smile, and the onset of a melancholy weight behind it.

"Anyway, you're here now. Best of luck challengers." The raised fist rocks back as three translucent cards lob in the air and home in on three different targets.

The chains lower the arena a bit.

MISSION START!

I play a green card that makes an illusory copy of me to hopefully throw off accuracy of others’ attacks

The green card melts in my hands as a head just like mine grows from my neck. Eventually we each have a neck, then we each have our own torsos and arm pairs, and then the leg holding us together separates. One of us watches the clock man, one of us watches the demon. Only we know which one of us is the real version.

Break the barrier, and burn all others, Fiery Pit!

E3 has been broken, a hole to the underworld spews out flames to the surrounding tiles! Due to being the creator, this trap does not harm Team Ruby. It also doesn't count as a ranged attack, but a terrain trap that deals damage over time to those caught by it. Except for those fools who charge straight into a hole of course. They're idiots.

The three cards are thrown to the hex ahead of Tim and turn affect the tile, causing it to crack and shatter as flames spew forth from it.
 The hungry underworld is awaiting idiotic victims, and the flames will burn away the other teams.

What a red-hot move from Tim! She's changed the battlefield entirely. What is Team Amber going to do?

/ Turn 3 /

An Amber Team Leader throws out a quick punch as The Amethyst Leader dodges.


The Ruby Team Leader's spell splashes down onto the arena, but it doesn't seem to eat through the strange metal of the platform. Instead, the magic of the cards opens a hellvoid portal, and splashes hellfire about. The Amber Team Leader mirage dissipates in the flames.

A large amber-colored egg floats down on a parachute, right into the fire. It burns up entirely.


The Judge moves. The metal bird fires forward like a flea and its' talons scrap for new purchase on the far end of the arena.

"Law 5 is now in effect: Though Shalt Not Use Ranged Attacks, and One Whom Uses Melee Attacks Shall Be Rewarded!

(Please note: Any spells cast at a distant enemy will break this rule, even if it doesn't harm them.)

The Judge deals cards. The chains lower the arena a bit.

---

Updates:

1. Auto-Melee Movement

Rulebook:

"RANGED-ATTACKS

You must aim where a target 'will-be' to hit."

Clarification: If you do a melee attack, you only need to choose a target. Ranged attacks on the other hand you must aim where.


2. Running Types:

Walk: (normal) 1 space.
Jog: 2 spaces.
Sprint: 3 spaces.

You can say you will Jog over to someone to do a melee attack, and if they are only a space away then you will walk instead. If they are more than a couple spaces, you will not sprint to meet them. You can do the same by saying you will Sprint, but take a less exhausting pace if not needed.

Rest: If you do not move, attack or dodge any attacks, you restore all stamina.


3. Self-correction:
What: Amber Team Leader should have had a card of their mirage and the curse each taking up a slot.
Impact: None, they never had more than 1 card.
Resolution: No action.

Play blue card on E3 to cancel the initial trap and hopefully the secondary ones
Move to B3 and Heavy attack Time Lord
Play yellow card on A2 summoning a Water Nymph

A blue card is thrown at the original portal. She hopes this disappeared the others too. She then moves farther from the portal, flames, and construct to do a heavier attack against the Time Lord. She places a yellow card on an empty tile, which melts into water and forms itself into a water nymph

"Flames of the underworld intensify into a burning rage which shrouds all evil."

"Hell's Mirage!"

Look at that, Team Amber is trying to put out the flames from a distance with a single card. But Tim is feeding them, they're so bright and tall I can barely see anything inside, and I have a view from above! Ah, but here comes Team Amethyst to lay a 1-2 combo on Team Amber.

Previously: Time leans over to Amethyst Leader and whispers something...

"ZZZ...huh?? Eh hem."

(Thanks for your patience, bit of a hefty update!)


Time winds back a punch, and launches it at Amber Leader, who nimbly dodges. -1000

There is no opening to disengage from the shuddering machine.


Ruby Leader's silhouette is lost in the rising flames until they appear to be gone completely.

Amber Leader's blue card seems to have done something to the flames, but what it is not clear. Hopefully they will go away soon.

(I had a long time debating if using a cancel spell on a distant enemy tile should count as a ranged attack. I decided it should. But since it may not be obvious since tiles are not usually alive, I decided to look the other way this time...)

"This is a warning.. Henceforth if Team Amber is caught breaking Law 5 before it expires, they will take 2 penalty cards."


As Amethyst Leader steps to the side their blue spell seems to be a bit slow to congeal around Amber Leader...

Amber Leader and Amethyst Leader square off. The Time Lord tries a sweep, and Glaze bounds up over it and lands heroically. -1000

But they are too exhausted to follow up with something. She crumples to one knee to rest.

Amber Leader glances up behind Amethyst Leader and weakly flicks off a yellow card... The Water Nymph rises up, ready to bring aid.


Two objects float down on parachutes. A Remote C4 clamps down and a red light begins to flash at consistent intervals. An Amethyst Egg touches down just outside the flames.

The child raises their gauntlet, and fires off more translucent cards. One goes down into the hellfire flames, but a bit closer than where Ruby Leader was before...

The card Amethyst leader takes, immediately shatters into a puff of red smoke and sparkles.

"Team Amethyst has satisfied Challenge 5. Congratulations on being awarded the first star card of the match. Play it as any of the four basic colors."

The judge makes a sweeping motion with the metal hand, and a shooting star crashes into the Time Lords' grasp.

The chains lower the arena a bit.


A blue light is closing in on Amber Leader, but it hasn't reached them yet. That C4 looks ready to blow! Perhaps Glaze can rally a superhuman lunge in this state just this once.

(See the bottom of update #1: Amber Leader will be given a risk-free 1 space movement to compensate for detrimental rules changes.)

---

Spoiler: Updates (2) (click to show/hide)

Updates:

1) Resolution Order:

1st Beat: Opening

• Self.
• Summoned Equipped Permanent Completes.
• Adjacent Melee. Prioritize light, medium, then heavy.
• Adjacent Spell.
• Ranged-Attacks/Spells/Summons. Prioritize shortest distance.
• Movement.

2nd Beat: Follow-Up

• Self.
• Summoned Equipped Permanent Completes.
• Repositioned or Pursuit Melee. Prioritize light, medium, then heavy.
• Adjacent Spell.
• Ranged-Attacks/Spells/Summons. Prioritize shortest distance.

3rd Beat: Wrap-Up

• Summoned Unit/Tile Completes. A unit wont be able to act.
• All passive effects. Prioritize self, then shortest distance.
• Bomb detonation.
• Eggs from last turn hatch.
• Audience pieces arrive.
• Extra cards destroyed.
• Rewards delivered.
• New cards dealt.
• Arena elevation adjustments.

Tiebreakers:
1. The unit that performed less actions first.
2. Fewer cards spent on the action.
3. Initiative roll.

Note: Receiving a penalty card will immediately end your turn.

Note: Actions that would be Post-Movement will still be delayed if your movement was interrupted.

Reparation: Since these rule changes needed to be implemented immediately in order to resolve this turn comprehensibly, and caused Amber Leader's melee attack not to cancel Amethyst's movement, Amber Leader may move 1 space next turn without any hindrances. (additional spaces will still cost extra stamina and be effected by melee attacks, and their curse.)

2) Clarification: Being forced to rest will not prevent card plays. But stamina will not be replenished until you do nothing for a full turn(or take a hit).

Throw all three cards into hex B4. Make sure there's space between them so it's clear which card is which. Mentally lock onto the rainbow one (The full, sparkling rainbow, not the LED rainbow of Time's card), walk over to B4, pick it up first, and use it as a Blue card to Cancel this damned eyesight problem!

(It has come to my attention, that an item called C4 in a game with a spot named C4 might just be confusing. C4 Bombs have been renamed to simply 'Remote Bomb'. Sorry for the confusion this homonym caused.)


With an effort of will that goes beyond the natural limits of her body, Amber Leader dives out of the way of the Remote Bomb. The blue light encircling her clamps down on her ankles.


The hellflames begin to froth wildly like an upset sea...


Amethyst Leader throws down their 3 cards: Time (Clockwork Construct), Single Trip (Curse), and a star card.

They then wonder over and feel around for the cards in a certain order...


Time moves away from the others.


Upon receiving the upgrade, the water nymph's eyes glow red, and she smiles.


The Time Lord holds out their arm with the presumed star card in hand, and facepalms themselves.

They're cured!!

They turn to see a torrent slicing through the air at them and backflip over the elongated nymph arm. -1000

Amethyst Leader slides on the ground, gasping for breath...

(I've included some clarifications and changes to being "completely exhausted" in the updates.)


Little embers begin spouting out of the hellflames and extinguishing abruptly upon contact with the platform. Amber Leader is touched by one with no effect. One hits the egg and engulfs it in flame.


A large ruby egg floats down beside the flames, but this one is unharmed by the jumping embers.


"Law 5 has been retired, and Ranged Attacks are once again permitted!"

"Law 7 is now in effect: Though Shalt Not Use Light Attacks, and One Whom Uses Heavy Attacks Shall Be Rewarded!"

(These designations only apply to Leaders, and not to secondary units who all just have a normal attack that will not be affected by this law.)

"Let's up the stakes. 2 star cards and one former champion created legendary card will now be shuffled in."

The Judge holds up their gauntlet and 21 cards begin rotating in the air above them, then with their free naked hand the child reaches back into a school backpack and withdraws 3 cards, sending them upward to join the others before they all collapse back down within the gauntlet.

Electricity surges from the metal hand and then once again, 3 transparent cards are fired off at the challengers.

One dips immediately into the hellflames.


The Remote Bomb continues to blink...

Post by: TricMagic on January 16, 2021, 08:17:26 am

It appears the battle has calmed down even as the inferno rages next to them. Why they're actually plotting! How devious. Either way, this turn is shaping up to be a mite boring.

Oh but what's this!? The flames are shifting, nay collapsing!

... That is a big hammer.

The flames collapse down to a single point above Team Ruby Tim's Head, attached to her staff. The hammerhead is huge, filled with black flames that let off unlight. Mirages can be seen promising demise.

Quote from: Remnant of Hell's Judgement

Take control of the Hellvoid card next to me and wrap it around my staff. Rush forward to strike Amber's team leader with a Heavy Attack imbued with the full power of Hell!

Charge path is to D4, followed by moving after Amber leader if they have moved. Heavy attack with the concentrated power of the hellvoid. This will dissipate it after it is used for the attack.

She's charging Amber's leader with that hammer to her side!

Tim is approaching Team Amber's Leader, setting the hammer in position. She spins it up before bringing it down as Amber tries to get up from her Resting position.

"Hell Punishment!"

I'd like to put something in post. This is very much your own fault NG for setting a time limit on those flames. And for leaving yourself completely open.

Also, plotting against someone you couldn't even see is poor. Feel the wrath of a 5-card combo.  :D
(Named Hell Punishment because it is punishing the one who set a time limit. And being a cool attack name.)

Thank you. The fact they mostly fought each other so far is kinda neat. I should be getting a reward card too, so that's three cards again. Worse for them, light attacks are forbidden, and they are in a bad position to move after me.

While only one cheer is allowed to count per turn and you already cheered for Team Amber, in the spirit of cheering itself, I'll clarify the rule to allow an older cheer to be overwritten by a newer one.

(I'll just have to only hand out eggs at the turn's end to avoid problems...)

They worry I've snowballed, which isn't untrue. But their focus on each other has left me rested while they are exhausted.

Nice to turn the tide of cheers.

I am deciding on mechanics as they come into play/are needed. That said, HP bars always bugged me in fighting games where you are totally fine with 0.1% left. In a real fight, a single punch can do someone in...

No one has been injured yet.

Yeah, all the other eggs burned up. It was fun  watching one literally drop in the flames. That mirage didn't do so well either, that was initially set up in case amber charged me.

"I'd like to take this moment to question something that's bugged me for a bit." A fragment of Time Lord states. "I have analyzed some unsettling things. Think for a moment... The Judge has a physical presence on the field, implying he can be attacked. The arena lowers every turn, but to what? None of us have glanced over the edge to find out. And the arena itself is classified as alive, evidently. Something is off here. Something needs to be revealed, resolved."

(Unseen to the others: Ruby Leader prepares for an attack. They slap the Hellvoid card to their weapon but... nothing happens. It seems a summon card---isn't just a free floating pile of raw panic cards. Too bad.)

*possible demonic expletives*

As Glaze and Time Lord permit each other to catch their breath, the hellflames whoosh and swirl, like the wake of a boat, straight towards Amber Leader.

Suddenly, burning eyes emerge from the maelstrom!

(outcomes include lesser ones)
▶1. Max Stamina Decrease
▶2. Pain: Cant Melee Attack 1 turn
▶3. Bleeding (Max Stamina Drain)
▶4. Limb disabled

Time Lord winces as he is squirted with fresh paint. He sees Glaze's body crumple to the ground.

Behind her the lake of hellflames begin to pop and crackle in a shimmering blue light, before they are extinguished---exposing Ruby Leader.


The blinking red light on the remote bomb turns solid green, and the blast sends a strong wind against Time and the Team Leaders who are all---just---outside the blast radius.


A short distance behind Ruby Leader, the large ruby egg bursts open, where now stands a Lionman Assassin! They strike an agile pose.

(Audience agents act on their own. Assassins target the leader of the team their sender didn't cheer for...)


The metal bird hastily jostles to a new roost in the far corner. The rider has the machine do an about-face.

Cards are dealt. Ruby Leader also receives a Star card for completing challenge 7.

"The total player count has decreased. 7 cards were removed from the deck."


The Judge snaps their fingers and Glazes' body and the Water Nymph shatter into white sparkles.

"Thank you for playing Naturegirl1999, you are welcome to continue to participate in the audience..."

"Team Amber has been eliminated! Only Team Ruby and Team Amethyst remain. Proceed!"


Gears and mechanisms returned to a steady rhythm, the clock-faced Time Lord stands up straight, ready to battle Tim, the demon woman.

The chains lower the arena a lot.

Updates:

1) (for audience) In the spirit of 1 piece per audience member, I will not be allowing something to be placed the same turn you detonate your bomb, or otherwise immediately the same turn a piece is destroyed to avoid monopolizing the slot by one person.

2) I did NOT finish tidying up the rules. It is all there but it's a bit of a mess still. We'll move forward anyway and I'll see what I can do on the side to bring it up to my own personal standards.

3) There will be NO major updates on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays.

A drone displays a hologram. "Go Team Ruby!" They give a stylish cheer. "KICK HER ASS, Team Amethyst!" another exclaims.

The patiently waiting Time clicks into motion and begins running at Ruby Leader, though not able to do so very fast. The Lionman also stammers forward (H) swerving left.

Tim's cards float before her. Time Lord begins charging. A green burst of light holds a glow at the ground infront of her. The steel machine draws back for a massive slam. A yellow burst of light opens up a portal beneath him, and he falls... A blue burst of light is added to the hellvoid. Near the portal, sounds echo in reverse...

Cards are dealt, one diving straight into the hellvoid. "Your attention, please." The Judge settles into a more engaged tone. It suits them.
"Law 7 has now expired, and Light Melee Attacks are once again permitted! Law 9 is now in effect: Though Shalt Not Use Curses, and One Whom Uses Magic Attacks Shall Be Rewarded! There will now be as many as 3 laws at once. And future laws will now last 3 turns." The drone enters Hell and relays the message to the plummeting Amethyst Leader. "Please re-enter the arena promptly, or you will be disqualified."

Ruby Leader let's out a sigh of relief. +1000

The chains lower the arena a bit. Moments later, a chair goes whirling past the platform, into the dark depths below...

Spoiler: UPDATES (2) (click to show/hide)

▶2. Pain I (Cancel Attack)
▶3. Pain II (End Turn)
▶4. Bleeding Token (Max Stamina Drain)
▶5. Pain III (Limb disabled)
▶6. FATALITY

-Max Stamina is Decreased (roll x 100)

-If max stamina is brought to 0, defender passes out, unable to continue.

-If an attack would remove more stamina than the defender has, there will be a hit, with (stamina/100) subtracted from the roll.

-Outcomes may be adjusted to reflect the type of weapon/attack.


2) Clarification: Since this is a game about creativity, no famous fictional or real-life people or objects will be permitted. Unless it extremely generic, like religious iconography.

It seems that would change how the update played out too much. And it would be questionable who would really benefit.

So it seems your spell took a little longer, but you didn't get bonked by Time.

Sorry about that. Having 'Time' and 'Time Lord' both as units' names mixed me up.

Title: Re: ArenaCraft
Post by: TricMagic on January 22, 2021, 03:59:32 pm

Ugg, but that ruins me since I didn't get the reward for performing a Heavy Attack. I was using that to get two cards in my hand, but I only have one as a result. So Time Lord has 2 cards and I have 1 instead of 2. I had a plan going, but I can't complete it now without a Star Card.

How would it change things? Time Lord still made his first step onto the hole that opened up. Given he's falling in, he can't take another. Then I would go and wait for Time to move in range to bonk them and get a star card. Even if I'd get hit too.

Title: Re: ArenaCraft

Quote from: Remnant Time

Use the Red card to Reignite the flames spewing forth from the Hellvoid. As a bonus this should also burn Time Lord who is where the flames are spewing from. Rush to F2.

Quote from: Time Lordie

"Ha. Good one. But you see... Time is a construct. An illusion, if you will."

He holds up a GREEN card, and it shatters. A similarly GREEN circle appears above him.

"If I told you a second and an hour were the exact same to me, you'd simply have to believe me."

The clockwork creature activates its GREEN aspect in the same way.

"And if I told you I were still standing on the arena floor, a few hexes behind you...

The GREEN circles slam down, leaving nothing behind.

"You'd have to believe me." says a voice from behind Tim, who turns around to see Time Lord where mere Time once stood. Looking into the Void, now Time was in there!

"Now someone send me something explosive, I have a humorous idea~" he says calmly.


TL;DR - Use [G] card and expend Time's [G] aspect to perform the minor parlor trick of switching places.

I kinda wonder how that would even work given it's a tier 3 card he's in and given the Hellvoid can't be manipulated like that. Is the mechanism just going to collapse? We'll see in time. Night all.

I'll be starting a new art blog on my Patreon, where you can follow the trials and tribulations of whacking Blender with a mental wrench, or whatever antics I get up to.

People have held their nose when I've associated hosting forum games with compensation, and I get it. But, I am spending way too much time and energy on these to not say I wouldn't welcome it.

The blog is free to read every entry, of which I will be uploading weekly. Check it out if you want a "How it's made" kind of backdoor experience. Patrons will also be featured in the credits of all major games for just $1/month, so just give what ever you think is fair.

Similar to the Patreon supported Dwarf Fortress (https://www.patreon.com/bay12games/membership), my games tend to involve expanding projects over time. For example, I've been hosting Panic Arena (https://smashboards.com/threads/the-panic-arena.363099/) (ArenaCraft) since 2014. The original forum it was on doesn't archive, but here's a post from a crossforum session that didn't start. SO you can see this isn't a fleeting interest of mine, this is what I do. I make games that are "Low input-high output kinda things."

https://www.patreon.com/roseheartblog

Anyway, feel free to disregard all that if it isn't for you. If you have questions, concerns, comments, feel free to PM me. And thank you to those that join me on this journey, oh the fun we will have.

Previously:
Time(whispering): "Let me help..."

Amethyst Leader falls further and further as sporadic embers leap up to lick his backsides. The drone descends in parallel, projecting a poem recital by a cheering fan "Climb out of hell ... Clocks will soon Chime ... Opposition's a fool ...". Time's up. And that's exactly what Time Lord is thinking...'The Hour of Deception' is finally at hand. Tim sees the clock-faced construct smirk, then turns as a minty breeze rushes past her from behind, and now that same smirk is at her back. She turns back to look through the portal incredulously, and sees Time returning her previous gesture, as the clockwork knight melts slowly in a pool of lava. Tim flicks a red card on the melting metal face, and the surrounding molten rock begins to boil rapidly. Hell flames begin erupting out of the portal, and Tim and the Lionman Assassin---vanish. Blue shards of reality click into place around the portal, the restoration has been aided a bit. Embers once again spit out at Time Lord, as the flames of Hell once again luminate his metal body. He then notices clanking sounds and child-like mischievous laughter and turns to see two winged imps poking his backsides with pitchforks. He brushes them off and they flutter off back to Hell.

Ruby Leader emerges from the flames next to The Judge. "A letter has arrived for you. Though, your hand will be too full to accept it. I'll hold onto it until you make room." The judge sends out cards, but they hover in the air...instead of dealing to the Leaders. "Ruby Leader was interrupted unfairly last turn, and will be permitted a choice of repeating a law, an assisted attack, or a dodge challenge for a star card." The Judge sends up a star card, which also hovers. "Ruby Leader used a magic attack on Time Knight. He'd have probably died anyway, but still. Challenge 9 is more or less, satisfied." "In addition to Law 9, Law 11 will simultaneously be in effect, starting now, which states: Thou Shalt Not Use Unarmed Melee, and One Whom Uses A Sword Shall Be Rewarded!"

The chains lower the arena a bit.

Spoiler: UPDATES (2) (click to show/hide)

Updates:

1) Flavortext Roleplaying Modifiers

Mood: You can set your mood with portraits(unlocked via Audience Members). If you are depicted in updates responding to unexpected events, it will be filtered through this.

Personality: Like Mood, but more general. I change this based on your roleplay habits.

Tim: Masochistic
Time Lord: Audacious

2) Self-correction:
What: Ruby Team Leader should have pursued Time and performed a heavy attack, aswell as become susceptible to Time's attack.
Why: I had Ruby target Time Lord instead of Time. I chose to have Ruby stop since (I believed, incorrectly) their goal was to perform a melee attack on Time Lord, which was interrupted by them plummeting into Hell, and didn't assume to have them dive in to do this.
Impact: 1. Movement failed to resolve. 2. Ruby's attack on Time failed to resolve. (loss of stamina, and missed potential destruction of Time) 3. Time's attack on Ruby on failed to resolve. (loss of stamina) 4. Ruby did not receive a reward for performing a Heavy Attack.
Resolution: New guidelines (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=177809.msg8238967#msg8238967) restricting similar named units have been established. With Time going first, having waited, Ruby Leader would have suffered total stamina loss. However, without the chance to kill Time or get a reward, this will be resolved entirely to TricMagic's benefit. Ruby Leader may choose one of the following compensations:

Choice:
A. Apply 'Repeat Law', or 'Repeat Law in Reverse' to an upcoming Empty Law. (Choose which law to repeat)
B. Gain a stamina free attack. (medium or heavy)
C. Lose 1500 stamina and take a star card. (this will be given after drawing, so it will trump a basic card, but not a legendary)

Quote from: Remnant of the Great Void to Hell!

Star Card-Deceit- That which changes outcomes
Star Card-Cancel-That which prevents obstruction
Into the Hellvoid


Of Hell, to Hell, return to Hell. Hellvoid, swallow everything near you, draw in Amethyst and their cards to their demise, draw in the assasain to strike him down, draw in even myself! I offer to thee everything, Sacrifice Unending.

Swallow the stage, Great Void to Hell!

The Hellvoid sucks everything on stage into itself as it expands! The contestants are falling. The stage is just one big hole filled with fire and a never-ending fall. Tim is just laughing manically while Resting, being drawn into the upgraded Great Void of Hell.

Does it count as a ranged attack when the attack is literally everything being sucked in indiscriminately? Amethyst won't escape the burning that easily.

"Swordplay, eh? Have at ye!"
The Star Card became a Yellow, fused with the Green to become a confounding-looking blade that was difficult to track with the eyes. It would take a bit of mental effort in addition to normal Stamina to dodge its temporal strikes...
"Now will you attempt to Rest, or will you lay a trap? I vote... BOTH."
An elegant roll to F3, followed by a swift stab with the confounding blade.

More holograms of cheering fans are projected. "All who support TEAM AMETHYST ARE FOOLS as TEAM RUBY IS GOING TO WIN! Its even more OBVIOUS now!" "Come on TIME LORD you've got them backed into a corner, YOU CAN TAKE EM!" Things are getting crazy up there, the sound of chairs being thrown around echo down below as zealous fans go wild!

Amethyst Leader's newly summoned 'Confounding Blade' looks as though it were meant to be a thick 'hour' hand on a clock. But before they get a chance to charge, a terrible wind begins pulling them back to Hell! They fight to keep ground, but then that gives way too, as the portal expands to the whole arena!! The metal beast carrying The Judge hops up on some chain-links. Faint blue flecks in the air move rapidly into the arena-spanning void. The Judge is able to resist, but seeing everyone now inside, slides down the chain near the portal, and hops in.

Hot steam seems to slow everyone's descent, holding them in melee range. As they flail about, The Judge falls upright with grace. The lava below has gone down, and now there is an angry volcano shaft with no discernible bottom. No longer shrouded in the deceptive hellflames, the Lionman brandishes their claws and slashes at Time Lord! The Clockwork Construct with the clock face grimaces as they avoid each feral swipe! (-1000) They kick off of them to aim their blade at Tim, robbing them of their chance to catch their breath... [5] (Max Stamina -500, +1500, Fatigue, Limb Disabled: Left Arm, Bleeding, Disabled Limb Removed, Unconscious) The blade seems to strobe in and out of existence, but this confounding illusion is not necessary---Tim is too exhausted to dodge. She falls unconsciously as her left arm falls away from her body.

Above, something descends into the portal, then the blue-tinted wind currents fade away, and the void emits a green steam as it shrinks down to its' original size. With the lava levels dropping, the hellflames have stopped emitting from it. The chains lower the arena a bit after The Judge deals cards.

"Law 9 has been retired. Curses are once again permitted! Ruby Leader has satisfied that challenge, and has received a Star Card." As The Judge continues, their tiny winged avian mount is fluttering in place with a proud uplifted chest. "Law 11 remains in effect. Amethyst Leader has satisfied that challenge and received a Star Card." The flight-less faller flutters backward a bit from the whirling warriors. "At this time, the fight will be permitted to continue in Hell!"

The lionman, the tin-man-of-time, the scareless bird-rider, and the unconscious Ruby Leader lady, are joined in this maddening descent by a blinking device. A bomb. The Lionman Assassin grabs Ruby Leader by the scruff of her blood stained shirt, and begins shaking her, then slaps her face over and over... they give a regal ROAR! . . .

Quote from: AND I'M FREEEEE~ FREE FALLING!

"Hm... Void, huh? Let's get creative~" He purrs and whirs and grins like a mechanical maniac. By layering a Star Card over it to give it a Red aspect, the Void card became an Attack, a targeted effect. And with a gentle flick, it was aimed at the Lionman. In theory, this would cause the Lionman to discard the cards that make up his aspects... Then wink out of existence as he cannot draw more to replace them.

ROAR! Ruby Leader's face grimaces, and she mutters something about "5 more minutes". She then seems to "sleep battle", lifting a blue card and activating it to slowly rewind her arm back towards her, and the spray of blood between the two heavenly bodies. Then, she raises a star card and mumbles something about it being used as red(energy) and as matter(yellow), (H) in a red flash, a burning energy katar grows from the Lionman's (T) right paw. They raise the Hellflame Katar and grin, then dive for a vicious strike on Time Lord! The Amethyst Leader twirls around the strike just barely. (-1000) In response the clock-faced construct raises a red card and a...pitch black one, and slams them together. But nothing happens. Instead the red one burns up and an energy blast strikes the Lionman Assassin! Blue lightning crackles and the feline is unharmed. Then the black card begins to pulse, and throb, until darkness consumes everyone's vision...

In this dark void the leaders look down to see ALL their cards shrink out of existence! Cancel Injury: Gone. Hellflame Katar: Gone. Confounding Blade: Gone. Hellvoid, Gone. All unplayed cards: bye bye. "What have you done..." mutters the judge under their breath. Cards, begin sucking out of their guantlet rapid-fire. All. Of. Them.

The challengers and the lionman reappear in the arena. Ruby Leader (-Fatigue) and Amethyst Leader (+2000) each have caught their breath, and now have a full hand of new cards. Ruby Leader's formerly severed arm hangs limply, which is decidedly an improvement, though the wound still bleeds. (-100 max) The remote bomb lands between everyone. It explodes.

Ruby Leader and Amethyst Leader hit the floor. (-1000, -1000) The Lionman Assassin is vaporized. Ash particles glow orange and drift down in the space that once contained them. The Judge is not around. "Sorry that I must leave you." their voice echoes from far above, "You are welcome to stay as long as you like, though that won't likely be long at all. I suggest you surrender. If not, godspeed."

"Here's a Star Card earned by Team Ruby. And here is two final cards, one is a Star Card, the other a Legendary, shuffled and dealt to you both."

The chains lower the arena a lot, then the suspended platform jostles about a bit. The void beyond seems larger, like a chamber, though the challengers begin to feel claustrophobic. The wind sounds like abstract breathing, cosmic whispering. There is a powerful feeling, beyond pride, beyond survival, that to even look beyond the platform is to lose one's very soul.

The Fate of Unspent Points
Panic Points that are unspent when the game is over will become 'Panic Coins'. These will be used in less direct ways in future matches for things like biding on locations or buying portraits. You'll need to collect points from scratch next time for bombs, cards, and laws. May this help you choose how you spend your Panic Points for the rest of the match!

If you want to make suggestions to be voted on for where the next battle should take place, my PM box is open :)

Quote from: No more Remnant, we Unlimited Hell Works now.

Move to D4.

I am the Harbringer of Hell.
Imps are my armor and fire my blade.
I have travelled many worlds.
I have seen many things.
Experienced limbo and euphoria on this road I walk.
And as I continue down this path, I laugh.
So as I gamble may your souls be cast aside, in Novarum's Purgatory Crisis!

Blue Card flashes, canceling use of last turns Star Card. 3 Star Cards obtained. Let Hell be unleashed upon this place!
The world's stage becomes flame as we are dragged to Hell. Only luck will save you now. Flow forth demons! (I meanwhile am leaving the stage via Hell. See you next time.)

The Stage beocmes a portal to hell, the terrain extending into the distance.(No more death walls or platform. We in hell now.)

Quote from: Some kinda time-bending robot guy

Move to D4 by way of C3, so I can play GGC - Curse of True Deception as a melee attack on Tim.

"I would fight you outright... But it seems you're not only weakened, but you have a concussion! With how you're stumbling, and spinning around wildly... blindly... You don't know anything about where you are, do you? Sense of sight, smell, sound, even your sense of direction... All overloaded to self destruction. Shame. I had hoped our last fight would be more memorable...

Than you falling into the clutches of The Timeless One."

Amethyst Leader charges forward and Ruby Leader cuts them off. Tim the demon woman crushes a blue card in their claws and attempts to harvest the Star Card from the vaporized katar. Yellow sparkles begin the form a mist around her hand. Time Lord sends a card up and it's vibrating becomes visible. Then two green cards join it in the air and match the vibrations, Curse of True Deception! A green and black flurry of reaching muck smacks into Tim and absorbs into her. She holds her forhead in exhaustion and then begins to stumble about. She falls off the platform! She looks up and finishes her spell, Novarum's Purgatory Crisis! A yellow beam and two red beams shoot up and impact the center of the arena as the platform begins to swirl with flame. Tumbling Tim, the Ruby Leader is grasped by tiny hands, big hands, limbs of various kinds, she feels parts of the fabric of herself she didn't know were precious being unwoven.

Time Lord is once again falling into the Hellvoid. Imps begin to pile on the falling steel frame, with their minature pitchforks they poke, poke, poke. Pieces start falling off.

As the two challengers are picked apart by the agents of ruin, the judge calls the match. "That's enough!"

The two are back on the platform. Which is now somewhere else, white light is everywhere. How was she here? She thought. "You two met your doom at the same time." As the judge spoke, she contemplated. How could this be? Just a moment ago she was being devoured by ultimate destruction, something that no one can come back from... "However, Time, your deception has run out. I'm sorry, you lose!" Time Lord shrugs and their clock face morphs into a great helmet, and their plate armor is revealed. Tim sees this and gets a terrible headache, and looks down and to the side to see a small hellvoid portal. It is Round 7, and the melting face in the lava is Time Lord. She turn's to see Time clapping as the clockwork fades to dust in the wind.

She experienced ultimate decimation. Something no one else has ever contained the memory of. But in the end it didn't actually happen. "Ruby Leader, Team Ruby, Challenger---Tim... You Have WON!"

I haven't decided if the next match will be here, in the same format, or if it will be rebooted to something a little different. Pretty sure blue cards won't be usable as an undo button anymore xD. It was interesting and creative, but in the end I want to make it so the pacing is always moving forward.

I'm not sure when the next match will be but if there is interest it will surely happen again. Thread is open for comments, feedback, questions and such.
