Well I liked the idea of the Picturewars game, sadly I have little to no artistic talent. So I decided to make a textbased game. It is similiar to Taricus, but (hopefully) less crazy and more coherent.

Game thread

Rules:
-Anyone can join(Up to 10 People, Yes I know, I lied
-Use your common sense
-No discusions in the game thread, no games in the discussion thread.In case of an infrigment on this rule, other players get1 post to notify the Poster of his error.
- Every time a player does something for the first time, he or she writes up the rules for it.
- To give players time for their posts, they can reserve and then edit them. Other players cannot act if a post in front of them is reserved.
- Post must follow the following layout. Post that don't follow the layout or break any of the rules must be ignored.

Fluff
Fluff
Fluff(All players actions here)


Spoiler: Turns and players (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Player A's stats (click to show/hide)
Spoiler:  Player B's stats (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Map (click to show/hide)

In order to play your actions, you just quote the previous players post, throw out their fluff and add and run your actions. Don't forget to update your stats.

While I won't really play the GM for this thread , any questions can be asked to me.

Well, I as OP just exploited my ability to be the first one to post, so anyone else who wants to join can post now.
If you have any questions please ask them.

So now we have wolves, some kind of hivemind and people.

You organics are irrelevant. Prepare to die Meatbags.(Note I'm not writing up a turn, just joking)

Can you copy them in the OP? We will quickly go over the character limit otherwise.

Also, maybe we should have a limit on the number of people than can join?

I will do the rule copying periodically. For now just copy them into the rule spoiler. If you see that I have copied the rules, you can clear the rule spoiler.(Also copying is easier for me if everything is neatly organised in one spoiler.

For player limit, what do you think 4, 6,8 ,10,12,14. This map is kinda large.

With this size map I'd say 8-10 players.

Also, if anyone is kinda good at drawning and feels particularly artistic and wants to draw the map, go ahead.( Pictures are less characters then descriptions.)

Anyway is anyone writing up his turn at the moment. Otherwise I will start mine.

Edit: Rule Dump completed.

We could do a basic grid with a basic legend (Green= Forest, Green/Grey= forested mountain, etc etc.).
