The HILL RPG

[Cuddly Khan]

Hope you'll understand it's better for us to leave in peace, and not in hatred and war.

Your an idiot, you just stole 6 gold off of him and you say "peace, and not in hatred".

I will join you Dimos as a peace pact for 4-6 rounds.

Dimos. You were in Dimopollis surely and you traveled 3 squars in one round. It's not right. You're a cheat

[Phoenixguard09]

Peace my good Khan, Dimos has not cheated. While his goals were despicable, his methods were fair.

OOC: I'd also lay off a little on the personal insults eh Khan? We're all friends here!

[Cuddly Khan]

None of my insults have "OOC:" before them. Sorry if I did insult you though.

OOC Questions:
Is it possible to move a ship but not be on it?
Wouldn't you need an Axe to chop down trees?
Is it possible to have more than one Player on a ship once?
Is it possible to give gifts to people like buildings or equipment?
Can you wear Leather armor with Chain Mail over the top?
Is being the last one standing the only way to win?

OOC Equipment Ideas:

Stables:
Horse: 6 Gold, and the ability to move two Squares and not one
War Horse: 11 Gold, 2+ resistance and the ability to move two Squares

Fletcher:
Bow: 5 Gold, attack from one Square away
Crossbow: 9 Gold, attack from two squares away

Food:
Apple: 2 Gold, heals 1/10 HP per apple eaten
Meat: 5 Gold, heals 4/10 HP per meat eaten

Armor:
Helmet: 3 Gold, 2+ resistance
Boots: 2 Gold, 1+ resistance

Buildings:
Walls: 12 Gold, 3+ resistance
Stables: 10 Gold, the ability to buy horses

Docks:
Fishing Boat: 3 Gold, ability of deap sea fishing. +3 Gold each turn

I had more ideas but I'll limit myself here.

[Dimos]

I am glad you accepted and I'll willingly move away from your lands at the next turn.

I felt threatened because you gathered money and you invested them only in war equipment. I'm sorry my friend. Hope you won't feel threatened by me again.  Let peace endure.

I will join you Dimos as a peace pact for 4-6 rounds.

What? No, I deny this.

[Dimos]

OOC Questions, Moderator's Reply:
Is it possible to move a ship but not be on it? No, it is not.
Wouldn't you need an Axe to chop down trees? Our ancestors Hunted down with sticks and stones. The game does not involve chopping.
Is it possible to have more than one Player on a ship once? It is possible, but only one of them gains money from fishing. Each ship holds up to 4 people.
Is it possible to give gifts to people like buildings or equipment? Yes, it is.
Can you wear Leather armor with Chain Mail over the top? Yes, you can.
Is being the last one standing the only way to win? It's either the last player or the last Kingdom to remain alive.

I had more ideas but I'll limit myself here.

[Dimos]

Changes will be issued in the next HILL RPG.

We will not make things more complicated, we will simply add options to each existing structure.
i.e. We can have house bring +1 production to the farms.
      We can have Manor allow stable units such as a horse (=moving 2 squares each round instead of 1 [not 2 horse types though])
      We can have castle needing siege (-4 coins and -1 turn) [provided that won't do that too much complicated]

About the food, I've thought of it previously. Like once you Hunt i.e. at C9, you will gain instead of money a unit of Meat and when you farm you will gain a sack of wheat. That will force the players travel along the map to exchange products and there will be 2-3 rectangles that will hold mines, from where you will be able to mine precious metals that will be made coins... But that is a bit complicated, for you will loose Hp if you don't eat for a certain amount of time and you will need i.e. 1 unit of the oposite food every 5 turns [which means you can't eat meat for 5 turns , you'll need to eat at least 1 unit of wheat/fruit during that period]. Also the current system allows exchange of items like weapons, coins or buildings withought the physical presence of the donator and the receiver at the same rectangle, which makes it simpler, but a bit unrealistic. Each player does not represent an army. He represents an soldier...

[Phoenixguard09]

OOC: Khan you didn't insult me, you insulted Dimos. I realise it probably came across a bit harsher in typing than you meant it but still.

Quite a few of Khan's ideas were things I was thinking of Dimos when I sent that PM to you a while back. I like quite a few of them, especially the horses. Another thing I was working on was an army system but that's a story for another time.

Back to the game.

[Dimos]

Well, I have a question for you.

As you know since we all believe in Santa... We have holidays... Should (after this turn is over) the game thread be closed and be opened again after the holdiays end? Or should we continue playing during christmas? I inform you that possibly some people will be away and thus they'll be innactive...   We can, on the other hand simply leave it open and allow bigger periods for turns... 

Opinions? Next day this Round ends...

[Phoenixguard09]

OOC: I'd leave it open but leave a large period for the turns so that we can discuss stuff on here while we wait.

[Dimos]

Btw, NightAngel, you must declare the donation of the 4 Gold Florins publicly. Is that clear enough? 

[Cuddly Khan]

OOC: It's fine with me cus I'll be away for the New Years day and surrounding days (one weak). Have a OOC thread so this doesn't get too cluttered here.

What I mean by deep sea fishing is that you can fish from land and if you have a boat you go to the deeper waters to fish for bigger fish. Also Hunting would require a bow. I don't think anyone here is capable of outrunning a deer or a rabbit and cows would be in places like Drippingdia, Ladyhawkville or Dimopollis.

I also really like the idea of house adding 1+ to farm production. What if you have 2 houses?

[Captain Carthage]

I now have one gold coin. -4 to Dimos and +1 from Phoenix.

[Dimos]

I now have 6 gold coins. 2+4 from NightAngel.

I donate 2 gold florins to Death Nade and 2 to Dripping D, my faithful vassals. So I have 2 gold florins again. 

DripingD, DeathNade, do you accept my donations??

[Gen_Glory]

accepted

now on 4 (?) gold

[Dimos]

I now have one gold coin. -4 to Dimos and +1 from Phoenix.

No, you have 3.

accepted

now on 4 (?) gold

Yes, it's 4 now.
