New Game Mode - Highlander!

Death Match - Weapon Type - Sword (1h or 2h), no shield

All players start with 1 WPF - When you slay an enemy, you receive the Quickening (+10 WPF and +1 athletics)

So basically the game starts with everyone running and swinging slow. As people start dying, those who did the slaying get faster and more powerful until there can be only One!

While you may be able to hide until the end, if you haven't killed anyone, you will be severely disadvantaged in the final fights.

That would be hilarious but consider sneaky idiots who backstab people while they are fighting then run away. Also would armor be included?

Sure, armor is no problem.

Backstabbers will be backstabbers  :P

This game mode is more like "juggernaught"
In highlander, you have to take the head.  So it would be headshots only for the kill.  The body would have to be invincible, but you still take mele stuns for being hit, like normal, just no damage.
That would open you up for the headshot.  Death

i like this... REALLY much.

jspook stop trolling please, we both know that it doesnt matter and you just wrote it to comment on this thread.

I think that if you can wear armor in this mode, it should be lammelar vest or lower only

Get over yourself.

the mode stated is "highlander"
and unlike you, I was old enough to watch all of them in the theater when they were released.  The headshot kill is actually the most important part of the series.  Not including that in the game mode just wouldnt be as fun.  As stated before, it would simply be a juggernaught mode like many of the orginal Halo multiplayer styles.
One of the best games out there that featured said stated Highlander mode was "Die by the Sword", and in order to score you had to actually decapitate your opponent.  but since the M&BW game mechanics dont feature limb removal, they could still narrow the damage to head only.

I don't think for gameplay it would be necessary, but yes, for HardCore HighLander mode, only headshots kill  :twisted:
