********************************** Colony Wars 3D Gundam RPG Ver. 1.04 Modified: Dec. 29 2001 Sorry this is from the html ********************************** Welcome to the Gundam RPG. It's now 3D! I hope this to be a very popular game, I’ve had other Gundam RPG’s but the ideas tested didn’t work. This RPG is email based, that means you send me everything and I keep track of it all. This game is also based on magic style battling. So start reading but before you do think about how much time you can devote to this game, if you don’t participate you will be deleted. I’ll have a list of people who have been idle for a week if you go idle for 2 weeks without giving me reason you’ll be deleted! All I ask is that you devote about 10 minutes of your time a week to be a part of a great online game, thats it 10 minutes a week.

Join:

Pick a MS even if it’s taken (If you want one someone already has I'd prefer it be mass produced)(No wing gundams)
Choose a Character name
-can't be a main character from an anime show (minor character names are ok)
-I’m ok with jap names
-no numbers
-profane names
-or stuff like cool guy tennis pro
-can’t have a MS as your name

HP:

Everyone has HP, it's your life and attack power. The HP consists of 2 parts. attacking/defending attacking=how much you attack for defending is how much you can block for (so everyones will look like ??/??
New members have 100 points to make up there HP (?/?) so put around 50 on each side (ex. 50/50, 49/51, 48/52, 51/49, 52/48, etc. if one side goes up the other goes down) Something around 50 is suggested.

LvL’n Up:

The new system of leveling up is for every battle won you get 1000 exp. the amount to the next lvl is that lvl with 000 added so to lvl 2 is 2000 exp lvl 3 is 3000
Once you lvl up you get +10 points to your choice attacking/defending

¥, our currency:

New members get ¥ depending on what force they join check here for listings
¥100 for winning a battle
¥50 for a loss or draw
¥100 for a basic IU(instant upgrade) ¥1000 for PU(permanent upgrade) more prices in the store

Battling:

you have hp attacking/defending (like magic) (ex. 60/40 ; 60 being how much you attack for and 40 how much you defend for)
you both attack and defend at the same time
an example battle
Let’s assume your a 60/40 ( 60 attacking / 40 defending ) 70/30 vs 60/40 = you would both lose
This is one singular instant move there are no Attacking turns in this rpg, There ARE turns in the emails you'll send to attack, but the actual battle is instant.

70/30/ vs 60/40 He attacks for 70 while you attack for 60, he only blocks 30 he dies, you only block for 40 you die.

30/40 vs 60/40 = 60/40 wins; he attacks for 30 while you attack for 60, he only blocks 40 he dies, you block 40, you win

Your health replenishes after each battle there’s no damage
The most important thing in this rpg is to remember you don't take turns attacking, there isn't 4 turns, it's all done at once
There is no second turn and you have to repair for 1 day if a battle is lost


Damage:

1 day repair if a battle's lost

Commands:

duel = 1v1 he doesn't have to accept
ambush = 1v1 he has to accept but can get help from team members
team battle = ?v? enables team commands
Team Commands:
- joint block = email a member of your team asking if they’ll joint block with you deciding who’ll go first (the first person always dies (or there's no reasons to joint block); so it better for you to decide that you will go 1st and tell a member you’ll do it) the person must be within one day of you, but the movement of him to help you will be instant.
- Example:
- 80/80 vs 40/40 & 40/90
- the 40/40 attacks 1st doing 40 damage the 80/80, then it does 80 damage the 40/40’s, it's dead, the 40/90 attacks for 40 damage and takes off the 40/remaining damage while blocking for 90, it’s alive and the 80/80’s dead, if the 80/80 would have versed the 40/90 1v1, then they would cancel (draw).
If you know how to play magic then you should get all of this.

IU (Instant Upgrades):

I want to get to this before I give you the play by play of the email.
Instant Upgrades are upgrades that last only one battle and are cheap, then reason I have them is because everybody is about the same ??/?? so these give the game alot of excitement.
the 2 basic IU’s are Iuattack and Iudefense what these do is give you +10 to attack and defense and you can buy as many as you want.
ex. im a 50/50 I use 2 IUattack to fight a 40/60 so now im 70/50, I win.
¥300 First strike- if you can kill him and he can kill you, you win
ex. 50/50 vs 50/50w/first strike
first strike does 50 damage, if the damage your doing is enough to kill the other guy, the match is over, you win, if it's not enough to kill him then, you lose (its not possible to tie/draw)

Email Messages in detail:

Attacking someone: Subject: CWRPG
Command
Team Command if there's any
Person your attacking Name
Their MS

Your Name
Your MS
Your location
An optional message that will be sent to the other person (no cussing; no out of character)

I would send this to the person being attacked: Subject: CWRPG
A bit of RP: You go about your daily duties of war, when someone from the bridge says over the intercom, “Sir, someone from an unidentified location has challenged you to a MS battle.”
The person’s lvl ( 1, 2, 3; not hp!)
Their location
Do you accept?
Do you want to use any IU's?

You would reply with Yes or No. and an optional message that will be sent to the other person (no cussing; must be RP no out of character (like im a newbie pls accept))

If Yes then I send this message to the attacker and the person being attacked: Subject: CWRPG
His name
His MS
His HP
His Location
Your Location
Meeting Location
Would you like to use any UI's?

After this I'll do the battling math post the results on the battle results page and send a message to the loser reminding them to report their loss on the stats server and the loser must repair for one day.

Map and Locations:

The map we use is made of squares. Each square is one day to travel
When you attack someone chances are they're on the other side of the map the, by the new battle system you both meet in the middle automatically, then to travel back it will only take half the time if you choose to travel back.

The 3d world and Chat:

All actions can be instant if performed in the chat or 3d world with a GM (game master) present
The chat must be run everytime your on the internet. my aol screen name is lanb135 if im on there then I'm probably on the chat.
You can battle anyone present in the chat or 3d world if a GM is present.
