** Art Of War ** New style of play for JKII

Here is a run down of the game mode rules and how it is played:

* 8 players are divided into 2 teams of 4.

* The 4 team mates must decide who plays what....1 master, 2 sabermen, 1 force fighter.

* The object of the game is to kill the other teams Master.

* MASTER= Can heal himself and can only use Push, Pull, speed, and seeing force powers Plus the master can use 1 power from dark or light side....ect.. mind trick or lighting. A master can not use a light saber, And must stay off the mat. between the two pillars.


* SABERMEN= Can only use a saber to attack, And can use force heal only when off the mat were the master is. They can use saber throw.


* FORCE FIGHTER= Can't use a saber but can use all force abilities. FF cant use the force to attack their opponents master. Can heal himself anywhere on or off mat.


All player but the master can kick attack. Can use shields and bacta and can leave room to get them, But doing this will leave a team short of one player. Once a Master dies the team with there master still standing wins. If a player dies he can rejoin the game, but must be quick because he's team is fighting minus a player.

I came up with this game mode while reading the "Art of war" , Players must work as a team to win. So winning a game takes more than just skill. It takes team work, fast thinking and skill.

Katan and me both know the rules pretty well and hope to see this game get off the ground, It sounds kind of complecated but once you know the rules you'll find it rather simple.

The trials are a test of your playing skill and knowledge of the game(yes I know its other things, but the actual trial on the server is all practical isn't it ?). You don't need to be a good player, or know everything to be able to win a tourney or a competition :)

Then I guess I'm wrong. They should earn some advantages though. Maybe the winners could be tested in this trial thing. If they pass they are promoted. :D Hey! Don't get me wrong on this! Just a thought! :D

You don't get made a Knight just for winning a competition, especially one set up by students. I do beleive ShadowSith was the first and alst of that breed :)

Of course if i'm wrong and the Academy does intend to promote people for winning something, so be it but I disagree :)

I think I missed the event! But I did like the idea. There could also be a tournament for "Art of War". Many teams of four, 1 on 1 each time. Then the finals. Maybe the finalists could get promoted to JAK! :) Yup. i think it's a good idea! ;)

Odin you should talk to a teacher and see if you can reserve the class server and have people sign up some time. It wouldn't be a real class but kinda like JAcen's CFT madness.

But definitely give it a trial run on the home server.

OK I think we should give it a go!! How about Friday, Just show up on the Home server and ask people if they know the rules for Art of War.
If not then they should check out this post...better yet print it out. I will be on the home server pretty much all day friday...(day off work) I'm hoping that people will learn the rules from this post and hold a few games on thier own. Hope to see ya all Friday. :cool:

Kinda like chess? how about... we DO play chess? Yeah..lots of people in one room. Each team gets 10 people, 9 pieces and one guy telling them where to go. When you attack a piece, its YDFA to death...ah yes...We could use the squares in the matrix room. Just some idiotic rambling...:alliance:

Thats what i was thinking!! The glass room would be perfect. I,m hoping to try out his game mod soon. But one foot note there cant be anyone jumping to the glass roof and running over it to get to the master. And the glass roof can help by stopping the FF from jumping to the other side of the map. Kind of balances it out dont you think?

Sounds interesting. I would play it on the server. It might be a good idea for a mod too.

Yes, I believe that if you could get enough people who wanted to play on a server, this game would be a VERY cool one to play.
