Well, I would like for there to be a battle forum on the darkness echo boards. This would allow all users to exercise their combat skills in an environment away from the actions of the RPG.
This forum also might exist just as an area to challenge people, and set up a date and time to battle in the mIRC chat or the java chat.
Vote so that us mods know what we should do!

I sent some Beta rules to Gabe. When he looks them over, he may post them in this forum.
One set of rules might be used for a tournament style of battle, the other might be used for one v one duels.
In any event, I may make a thread that asks if you like a grid layout with a specified number of moves per turn, or more free flowing combat.

Once it get's started people should make sure they know the rules of combat. They should also get a moderator to monitor the combat.

the grid or fighting style wont be the hard part. moderating is the hard part. everyone has different stats, like the Fighting: 220, crap. that doesnt tell you anything. plus everyone is lazy and just types in "unknown" to a lot of things, so the moderator cant use stats to judge the gundams, unless soem sort of universal system is made to work things out. i have been working (not lately) on a program that will be full of stats but would keep it simple for the player. but that's still far away from completion. i might make a cheaper one or atleast make stats on the gundams, so if your app is full of blank spots or crap like: "its a secret" then i suggest fixing them now.
the moderator can allways just go through without anything but his mind, but then it all depends on how good he thinks the MS is, and if he is unfamiliar with one of them, then he can easily underestimate its abilities. so ther is another reason to get those apps fixed up. if you need help them mail me. im the one that was bitching from tehstart for you guys to clean them up, but no one ever listens.
another thing about moderators (and i am one, so i have a right to bitch) is that if a suit comes on TV then its always the "ultimate gundam" when Wing came on, everyone thought that it was the ultimate. now Astray and Strike, and the others, etc. thats why stats are the best, so ill get to them ASAP.

Well said, Enoch. Well said. Anyway, the stat thing is a double edged sword. While it would make moderating a fight easier and more methodical/fair, players can beef up their stats unecessarily. I suggest making a point system or something. Like you get 10 points to start out with, and a few catagories that players get to put them in. Makes things alot easier. Then before a battle, you would have them both post their stats like so: Ain Miyamoto Gold Frame Amatu Speed: x Strength: x Agililty: x Armor/Defense: x etc. And whatever. At least that how some things are done. What I would suggest is that basically everyone goes to p211.ezboard.com/fgwngenesisfrm84 and read AT LEAST two battles done there. Note: the battles are under the threads with dates, and in the thread, the first post gives the winner, and a link to the battle. follow those given links.

What if you have already participated in a battle here. Could that count, because I have alredy participated in two and am trying to finish up the third.
