Ship of the Line (Turn 8) - And then there was two
« on: April 15, 2014, 01:07:59 pm »

Ship of the Line

On the high seas, many masted galleons duelled amidst the rolling waves, the booming of cannon challenging the thunder itself. The screams of crewmen, the clash of steel on steel, and the crack of muskets threatened to drown out the bellowed orders of the captains. The fleets of RED and BLUE were once again embroiled in conflict. Only one side will live to see the next dawn...



Welcome one and all to the first playtest of 'Ship of the Line', an action-packed, tactical game set upon the oceans.  I'm looking for players to help make sure the basics work, before I succumb to my usual downfall of feature creepTM. Now, onto the rules:

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

Well this has been a lot more popular than I expected. I give it another 24 hours to find those last two players, otherwise we'll just go ahead with four-a-side.

Science is always important. But it needs more flaming cats. Can't we build bridge-based catapults and fling flaming cats at the dust and goo?

It's time for the ATHATH Death Counter to increase once more in celebration for the end of the world.

Has anyone noticed that the names on the Red team look more like names on Navy ships, while the Blue team has names that sound somewhat Piratey?
