cRPG Tournament, Teambattles - Discussion - Do we need it?

[Tristan]

well, give proper rules then we can think of something

What more rules are needed besides those posted?

Added:
Map: Ruins
Time Limit: 6 min (should maybe be 7?)
Eq: Is already described
Best of 5 rounds (normal game)

What more is needed?

[Olwen]

well, imagine 10 HAs against a regular team, might be quite hard to win for regular one

[IG_Saint]

Yeah, some kind of limit to classes is needed. For the 5 player teams I'd say max 3 of one class, for the 10 player teams max 5. And I'd define the classes as simply melee, ranged and cavalry, with mounted ranged taking both a ranged and cav slot.

[Torp]

we should have a melee only (no cav either) and a ranged+cav+melee duel.

otherwise it would just be ranged camping.

[Tristan]

I am not sure I am in favour of 2x4 categories, though I see the virtue of limiting to melee class.

But I do like the limit on classes.

So 4 categories (5vs5, 10vs10 both with and without gold limits)
A limit of 3 of one class (in 5vs) and 5 (10vs).
Hybrids count in both classes.
Classes are ranged, cavalry and melee.

If you got ability to throw, but bring no throwing weapons you count as only melee etc. etc.

Sounds fun?

how to check if the opponent isn't using more cash than rules say ?

How about a non-biased referee for every match as a spectator ?

[Olwen]

still ^^ he can't see how much money each team spends

[Xant]

He can make a crude estimate though, but who would honestly bother to look through every detail of everyone's armor, then sum it all up? Maybe everyone should post their equipment on the forums beforehand?

This is an option.
Another is to believe our fellow gamers are not cheaters.
Lastly if their entire outfit is plated chargers we got the feeling somethings off.

I like the idea that people post what they wear. This way makes it easy for players to estimate if something is fishy or not.

Without giving a tactical advantage to the opponenet we could ask a neutral non-participating referee to be the judge.

Yepyep. Send the equipment list in a PM to a ref... sounds like the best option.

Don't see a problem with it really, clans will have to list all the equipment and count the costs anyways amongst themselves, so only extra work is copy+paste and sending the PM.

Also like to see a set armour, but you bring your own weapons one
That'd be fun and fun for many people
The armour would be the tunics over mail, with the arena hats, leather boots and mail mittens
It'd give it a more touramenty feel I think

[Olwen]

it'd be a native tournament, not a crpg one ^^

This no. Everything is allowed and customizable. I know it is "less" fair... But its cRPG.

Caravan Guild is interested and waiting for further rules.
