As Promised, a new Idea 40's
Posted: Thu Jul 18, 2013 3:49 pm
Is it possible to start mini events for 40's. Something that could be done fairly easy I think. Ever faction has boats, and every faction would logically need supplies. So maybe say on a specific night of the week boat jobs would come up. Posted in Frost Dale, and the middle of one set; to start during the next reset. A team of four or five players from one faction sign on as crew to take supplies to a random set of factions. Their goal is too get the supplies they have hired on to each point on their list. the load on the boat at Frost Dale, and sail off. At this point one of three screens will appear. The faction they need to see, 2) and enemy ship be it from another faction, or 3) Mega boss like the Under sea boss to capture the crew.
Once the ships are beside each other they would take up a screen as big as the fighting area or checker board to simulate both ships side by side locked in battle. No running away, no hiding win or die.
If the crew survives they would get say a one time use token that gave them plus one AB or plus 2 AC for a few rounds then would be gone. One time use item that cannot be given away once acquired and disappears after use. A limit would have to be put on players say five trips or so that all players would have a chance to take the run.
If the crew where stopped, then their cargo and prize goes to the pirates or enemy raiders. If they are captured by the underwater boss that particular avatar would be held captive and the owner of that avatar would have to secure a random party Quest for their freedom just like an Epic run. The person(s) would lead the quest on their own rescue. Roleplaying could come into play, as well as team work just like in the Epic runs that seem to work so well for the server. So any one going on this Quest could end up with nice prizes, good XP, and new people would get a chance to see a new area. Because if the recue was too late in the Dm's opinion, well lets just say the Underwater boss has been known to be a slaver when it comes to surface dwellers. So a body could end up almost in any plain and need almost any "type of party" to save them.
All of the time there would be several possibilities for mini events, epic runs, and great fun. In to close I would like to thank the DM staff for stepping up and Being not only highly visible and open to all the new and old players on the server. Seeing them on has boosted server population and mood. Thank you very much for taking the time to help the game be much more fun.
Sincerely,
