Nuclear War VIII

GeneralTacticus · March 17, 2004, 02:24

Each player starts with 3 cities, and may perform 1 order each turn. Orders should be sent to me through:

PM
MSN/email: angusniven @ hotmail.com

(When orders has been sent, please post a “sent” msg in the thread, to make sure I have received the order).

If you don’t send any orders for a turn, you won't be auto-set to do something (I won't deflect for you, I won't do anything for you... ), and since I post a msg from time to time in the forum about who still needs to send orders, people can see who’s open for nuking, so be sure to send them

If you don’t send your orders, there will be consequences, unless you can come up with a good reason BEFORE you’re missing your orders (i.e. if you’re going on vacation tell us BEFORE you leave, not when you get home)

code:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# of turns missed: Consequences:
1: nothing
2: You’ll lose one city this round
3: You’ll lose two cities this round
4: ---------you get Wasted--------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Each turn takes about 24 hours (Ending at 9 AM GMT each day) (Though there might be some changes, so don’t count on it being ready every day at this time... maybe it’ll be earlier, maybe later). If I have received all orders before time runs out, the turn has ended and I’ll post the results early

You will be able to change your orders up until one hour before the end of the turn, except for observation missions, which can be changed until you receive the information.

Spy missions don't count as orders: e.g. you can sabotage an enemy and nuke him in the same turn. Each player starts with one spy

Orders:

Launch Nukes:
The player can launch two nukes. The nukes can be launched at different players or they can be launched to the same player, depending on preference.

* Stockpile Nukes:
When stockpiling nukes you can launch 4 nukes instead of 2 at some time. You can't stockpile stockpiled nukes, the max # of nukes is 4. You don't have to use the stockpiled nukes the following turn. If you've got stockpiled nukes and want to nuke someone, but also keep the stockpiled nukes, you may, but (obviously), you can only use two.

* Deflect:
When deflecting nukes to a certain player, every second nuke to arrive that turn will be deflected to another player (Which has to be included in the orders). The nukes which get deflected is: 1, 3, 5… while 2, 4, 6… will hit

Hide in bunker:
Each player starts with one bunker. When used, ALL nukes fired at you are destroyed (Not deflected), and all spies sent against you are killed (caught by the guards). After one use, the bunker is unavailable, unless rebuilt.

* Build a Bunker:

Gives you another bunker to use.

* Train a new spy:
Just like it sounds. (No-one starts with any spies)

Build City:
You get one extra city.

Sabotage (Spy):
When using sabotage on another player, the other players orders will be cancelled. This kills the spy used. Sabotage does not work on bunkers; stockpiled nukes launches that are sabotaged lose the stockpile involved.

All orders marked with a * sign shall be referred to as "unknown projects" unless they specifically come into play that turn.

If you post a "sent" msg in the thread, but I don't recieve any orders, I'll auto-set you to whatever you want your 'default' orders to be - send them with your first orders (Of course I'll send you a msg that I didn't recieve your orders)

GeneralTacticus · March 18, 2004, 01:51

No orders received from Mr. Baggins, everybody else's orders are in. I'll post the results at 9 AM GMT or when Baggins' orders are in, whichever comes first.

Jamski · March 18, 2004, 04:14

Better get out of bed, Mr Baggins

GeneralTacticus · March 18, 2004, 06:33

Today was a day of building, with Hercules, Vlad Antlerkov, Spaced Cowboy, and Doc building the cities of 'Zoom', 'Objectively Pro-Evil', 'Jamski's Beyatch', and 'hot' respectively, and Skanky Burns and Jamski working on unknown projects.

Meanwhile, MrBaggins has not been seen since being sworn in as a leader; rumours of a small, slimy-looking creature muttering to itself and slinking about near his offices have yet to be confirmed.

Skanky Burns · March 18, 2004, 06:40

My drones have been given their commands. Now fly, my pretties, fly!!! :evilcackle:

DrSpike · March 18, 2004, 07:19

Baggins said he sent, so might be best to give him a spy.

Jamski · March 18, 2004, 08:52

Sended
/me clicks his heels together*

Up, up and away!

-Jam

MrBaggins · March 18, 2004, 23:04

Unfortunately, I have to bow out for a while, due to work actually expecting to do some work on a db project, thats going to cut into my forum time significantly.

the nerve of some people... I know...

Anyway... I expect that I probably won't be able to devote enough time to keep up right now, so I'll join another game later.

Tnx

Hercules · March 19, 2004, 02:07

Unfortunately I thought this game would have started sooner and be almost over by now. I am away from Today until March 28th. So I suppose my cities will just disappear 1 by 1

Skanky Burns · March 19, 2004, 02:29

So we are down to 5 players already?

GeneralTacticus · March 19, 2004, 02:42

Pretty much, although Herc has left a queue... I'll leave MrBaggins' cities as they are in case he gets back before we finish.

Anyway, still in need of orders from Skanky, Doc, and Vlad.

Skanky Burns · March 19, 2004, 02:47

What happened to the orders I sent you 7 minutes after the previous round finished?

GeneralTacticus · March 19, 2004, 02:48

Oops, got the orders files mixed up... sorry. Let me amend that: I'm still in need of orders from Vlad.

Skanky Burns · March 19, 2004, 07:16

Ahh, much better.

(Cuz I forgot what my orders were)

DrSpike · March 19, 2004, 07:21

Wow that was lucky, I forgot yesterday to send. Sending now.

GeneralTacticus · March 19, 2004, 07:26

The first nukes flew today, with Vlad Antlerkov launching 2 nukes at MrBaggins, destroying his new city of Salt Lake City, along with Vatican City. Meanwhile, Hercules and Skanky Burns built the cities of Room and Morrowind respectively, and Spaced Cowboy managed to avert destruction at the hands of Jamski's stockpile with timely sabotage mission. He is apparently working on an unknown project, along with Doc.

Total Player Losses:

MrBaggins: 2 cities (2 left)

Remaining City List:

Doc:
4 cities (Prime, Whole, Real, hot)

Spaced Cowboy:
4 cities (No, Kill, I, Jamski's Beyatch)

Skanky Burns:
4 cities (Thief, SMAC, Tibia, Morrowind)

Jamski:
3 cities (Pike, Trout, Haddock)

MrBaggins:
2 cities (Mecca, Jerusalem)

Vlad Antlerkov:
4 cities (Patriot Act, tax Cuts, Why Do You Hate Antlerkovistan So Much?, Objectively Pro-Evil)

Hercules:
5 cities (Gloom, Doom, Boom, Zoom, Room)

Skanky Burns · March 19, 2004, 07:49

My orders are in now.

Jamski · March 19, 2004, 08:34

And perfectly timed, I might add.

I think some people are geting to know me too well

GeneralTacticus · March 20, 2004, 05:18

Today was mainly occupied by further building and secret projects, with the only one who bucked the trend being Vlad Antlerkov, who launched a pair of nukes at Hercules. One of them struck home, destroying the city of Room, but the other was deflected to Jamski, who then passed it on to Spaced Cowboy, where it destroyed his newly-built city of Skanky's Ho.

Meanwhile, everyone else was busy working on unknown projects.

Total Player Losses:

Hercules: 1 city (4 left)
Spaced Cowboy: 1 city (4 left)

Remaining City List:

Doc:
4 cities (Prime, Whole, Real, hot)

Spaced Cowboy:
4 cities (No, Kill, I, Jamski's Beyatch)

Hercules:
4 cities (Gloom, Doom, Boom, Zoom)

Skanky Burns · March 20, 2004, 05:29

My orders should be in now. But due to flood-control on PMing they aren't. Which is probably why I am typing more than I normally do in the small hope that when I finally finish typing this post I can submit the PM again and it will be accepted. 90 seconds sure is a long time to wait.
