Monthly Fun Battles
Posted: Thu Jan 04, 2007 1:09 am
My idea is for a new server. This server will be named Monthly Fun Battle. It is only open for 24 hours on the first of every month. Let me get the basics out of the way first.
The galaxy will be made out of 30 systems.
2 black holes
5 systems with no planets in them
8 systems overcrowded with planets
5 systems with middle to little planets
2 safe Sol-like systems that are safe
1 system that spawns laser cannons in random posistions in space
then some random other systems
starports are spread throughout fore reshielding only (though shields will get expensive)(there are no resources or need for resources)
To play in the MFB you must choose a personality from any other server. You have that ship and its weapons with full shields (no cargo). At the start you get a free 3 million for reshielding. You get nukes at the beginning of the game depending on your level. Eight for emporers/dark overlords,7 for fleet admirals, 6 for admirals, 5 for vice admirals, and so on in that faction (bad names apply for all).
The planets are uncolonizable and a place for battle. Its just a place for epic no consequence battles. There are no taxes in the safe systems and you can log out there to rest for a bit.
If you die, you reappear in Sol and have to wait 2 minutes to go back out.
At the end of the day scores are calculated. The 10 top killers win prizes of either tokens or large sums of money transferred to their accounts (the accounts they chose at the beginning of the battle) They also get small blue Medals with their place (first second third so on) on it. The medal is on desplay next to their name (in game and on chat menu) until the next fun battle. The person that died the most is marked by a red medal in the same place for the month. Other than that, no consequences pass onto your regular gameplay.
I think it sounds like a fun idea. Lets see what you think.
PS If you vote, say why you felt that way, i'm open to changes
