Game of Death is recruiting players, deadline 7/19

[Dr Midnight]

EDIT: the game is recruiting, see below.

A what? GAME OF DEATH! Yessss, Game of Death is the game everyone's raving about! What is it? Why, it's a rules-strict battle royale (be it teams or every man for himself) to the end on a battlemap with hazards, facets and obstacles.

I don't know if these types of things have been held at ENworld in the past, or what they may have been called. I've run a few on Nothingland and elsewhere... I may even have done a few here, years and years back.

If we found a sponsor, we could have a prize for the winner.

I run something very similar called The Battle Nexus over on the Gleemax forums and I would dearly love to borrow this map of yours for the Grand Melee match we have coming up (and for future use as well).

Barring that, can you tell me how you made it?

 

[Dr Midnight]

Ooh, is there an open slot in that? I wants in. I made it in Illustrator and Photoshop. No easy answers there, I'm afraid.

 

[WarlockLord]

OOH! Can I get in this?

Regarding the Battle Nexus: There isn't an opening in the current cycle, but a new cycle will be starting up soon. Can I still use the map (minus the special rules, I just like the layout of the thing)?

 

[Dr Midnight]

Sure thing, and enjoy. Thanks for asking by the way.

As for us, we need a DM and a bunch of players.

 

[SarahRequiem]

that sounds like fun =D

 

[Charwoman Gene]

Nifty can I play?

 

[crazy_monkey1956]

Thank you much.

Maybe. We had a similar thing with a map of 20x20 feet rooms that each had different special features. Once two people entered the same room they had to fight. They could leave the room but that meant taking energy damage. And if they entered an empty room they had to move to a next one within two rounds or again they would take damage. It was quite fun.
