Now entirely sure I'm following you buddy...

This thread is a mini battle run by one of the players that awaiting launch. The chatter in here is just to pass the time until _Anshin_ is available to begin.

This forum for anything to do with HMW and for its players to relax and joke with each other, not just for stories such as this (although they do definitely improve it).

Not sure if this guy is, but I'm seeing other messages which most probably ARE from a spambot.

Looks like it, cheers AD, Burn's already on it.

The spambots come out in the middle of the US night. It's always fun to catch them before Blurrz does, 'cause you know "I'm Blurrz, i'm da fastest".

New Game Rules are up. I moved ahead and couldn't wait for Zordon. I actually want to get Game 3.5 up and running.

So, I pick 4 guys for the team? And if I get shut out x times I'm out, but if I shut out guys from Con team 1, they're out. Sound simple, not sure I understand how many times I can be shut out, but that's all good.

Actually you pick 8 guys (Roll #3).

You can initially be stasis locked 4 times before you stop contributing to your team's kills. Each time you stasis lock 2 of that group you gain 1 more life. So each time you and AD get stasis locked by a team, you guys lose a life.

So if you Stasis locked Bristleback and Wrath, you would gain a life. If you and AD got Stasis locked 4 more times after that without returning the favor, you have one chance to stasis lock their team before you go down for the count.

I made this rule to allow a chance for Vic to survive longer since everyone but Psychout has him out leveled. This way he could pull massive kills and still have a chance to shut down some of the cons and even the playing field. Con's have firepower and numbers, Bots have more targets.

And the Bot's have me!

Autobot Team 1: Total required Kills(427)
Zordon (5) / Vic (10)

Autobot Team 2: Total required Kills(605)
Alldarker (8) / Absolute_Zero (4)

Decepticon Team 1: Total required Kills (523)
Potenate (7) / Bristleback (1) / Name Violation (7) / Wrath (5)

Decepticon Team 2: Total required Kills (610)
Burn(11) / Icon Jade(4) / Phaze(12) / Psychout(6)

This game is called under attack:
Decepticons must find their way through the City defenses to make it to the tower. During the way the Autobots will have chances to Ambush the Decepticons or be caught off guard and be taken out.

Rules:
Teams must make Average of combined totals from (#2).
Please list the troops you would like me to monitor. Your total of troops are equal to your choice for(#3).

So using Decepticon Team 1 as an example:
Each member's total team kills will add up towards the 610. So if NV has 500 kills and Bristleback has 110, the other two have to do nothing. Sounds easy right?

Here is the twist and where Roll #1 comes in:
Autobot Team 1 can only Ambush Decepticon Team 2
Autobot Team 2 can only Ambush Decepticon Team 1
This is also works backwards (Decepticons can catch Autobots)

An ambush is when you catch two or more members of that team and Kill them in a fight.

So if AZ/AD manage to kills NV and Wrath in a fight and manage to shut both down with Stasis Locks then a point is given towards AZ/AD and a point is taken from NV/Wrath. If a person's points = Zero then that person is eliminated from this fight. So if AD gets shut down 8 times in a row he is shut out of the game and his total kills stop on the day his team is shut down.

What does all of this mean and why am I making it so complicated? I don't know... just wanted to make life interesting and I like numbers. But back to the rules:
If AD has 300 kills and is shut out on 11/18, any kills by that time will not be counted, leaving AZ to do all of the work to make the remaining 305 kills. Kills can be done against any member of the other Factions team not just the troops they wish to kills with.

I will monitor Team kills, but if you wish to shut out your opponent you must post you kills here (I know, I know, why am I making you do work?!?!). Well it is to get you interested in this mini game. I will try to watch out for the kills but I am not able to play as much as I would like so I will need your assistance with this.

The game ends when Two teams complete their kills. There penalty and reward for this will be the "cure". Autobots have a chance to add Crossblades (or a new member back) to the side. Decepticons will get an "Extra bonus" on next round. Losers, well that will be revealed in 3.5.

Post your teams and I will add them here.

Zordon: Pick 3 (sorry Random roll).

Game will not start till 11/18.
Post questions and I will address as soon as possible

so i think i got this.

all i gotta do is post my team taking out az or ad's team.

So I gotta pick 6 members from my team:

Zombi Cheerleader
Nemesis Wheelie
Evil the Car
Darth Zambah
Primal Fear
Silver Fang

And try and shut out Vic and Zordon?

Do I need the final blow, does it have to be buy one of these 6 named above and does it need it be on a different character every time?

It can be from anyone on your team, but your team has to get both of them. So if Burn and jade make the kill on both of them it counts. If NV kills Zordon and you get Vic then it doesn't count

by **The Potentate** » Wed Nov 16, 2011 6:30 pm

think Ill go with, MooseMuncher, Muleplanker, mahockamamayne, Exodus, Foghorn, Ahriman, and Nosferatu.

So team PPB+J have to kill both Vic and Zordon in the same mission for a successful ambush, and I have 6 lives so if Phaze and I both get killed in a mission by Zordon and/or Vic we both lose a life, correct?

The rest is just murdering our way to 610 kills between us, right?

assuming we are going by Value 3 for team members...

I need to drop a minion, so ill cut Silver Fang.

News Credits: 1 · by **Absolute Zero** » Wed Nov 16, 2011 7:02 pm

I rolled a 4 for value three, at least thats the number next to my name, so my four will be... drum roll please... (audience cheers) Gauntlet (loud cheers from the audience)! Inertia (catcalls from the audience)! Wildstorm (woofhowls from the audience)! and Beatrush (Cole Train "wooo wooo" noises from the audience)!

That is all for now, there will be punch and pie served in Darkmount afters.

The first question: This is correct. On the plus side, stasis locking both of them will gain the two involved another life. Its give and take.

The 610 kills will only be between the cons listed as your "chosen few".
