Re: Conflicting Factions the 7th - Rules Draft
Damn, I wasn't able to meet my deadline; spring break ends today for me T.T As a postmortem, unfortunately I was bogged down with the issue of formalizing emergent behaviors without losing the individual behaviors themselves. A good example is combat: Combat is done with exchanges of shots between i...

Re: Conflicting Factions the 7th - Rules Draft
By scrolling horizontally, do you mean scrolling the entire screen horizontally, or scrolling the tables horizontally? Because I think I'm just going to change the data displays so that less information is displayed at once, and you check radio buttons to change what data is currently being displaye...

Re: Conflicting Factions the 7th - Rules Draft
Well, I decided to write a utility to help administrate a game, and I ended up with this: http://www.gaussianstudios.co.cc/software/CF/ It's an applet for viewing systems, planets, and colonies all at the same time. You can sort by column and filter by system/planet. You can select multiple rows, an...

Re: Conflicting Factions the 7th - Rules Draft
Are you in regular econ or are you referring to AP Macro/Microeconomics? Because I wish I was taking the latter, I really wanted to try out econ. Don't have the time though >.>

Re: Conflicting Factions the 7th - Rules Draft
Removed districts, and different types of infrastructure. Changed resource structure. Added "development" levels. I think that development levels will really add a wealth of economic interaction and a number of strategies that you simply can't do in other games. If all goes according to pl...

Re: Conflicting Factions the 7th - Rules Draft
Haha, Anna, I've been lurking around every now and then, but I never really came up with the initiative to start building ships or comment again. Been pretty busy with school and extracurricular stuff, but I definitely do miss the old times. I'll drop by the IRC channel once I get around to reinstal...

Conflicting Factions the 7th - Rules Draft
Well, it's been a while since I've been here, but it's spring break now and I have free time, so I've decided to try and finish one of my personal projects for once and bring Conflicting Factions to completion. For those of you who are unaware, Conflicting Factions is a forum-based space-opera TBS/R...

Oh, by the way, anybody else notice that our front page has almost 1 million hits?
Come on guys. A little under 5000 more. Then we can rest in peace.

Re: Reviving the Community
Hehe. The fabled 'balanced' tournament rules. I remember when we were up in arms trying to figure that one out. In reality, the best way to balance something is to try it and try it again. Truth is, Anna is right. Still, couldn't hurt to have all that shiny stuff. It's a shame I've committed myself ...

Re: Reviving the Community
Well, I was more active back when the strategy part of BSF was still fun. Now I'm just killing time before I get to sleep. What this game needs is a large, well-balanced set of stock-scale ships (hey, the game was meant to be played that size. The engine simply doesn't handle ranges larger than 1000...

Re: It has been...quite a while, hasn't it?
Just to make things clear, I'm saying the drama that takes place every now and then is very entertaining to watch.
Welcome back. I see things haven't changed, then.

Re: Hunter's Moon - Experimental Mafia with Werewolves [OOC]
Scrubs...
Heh, I was afraid of that. I don't think I can actually run this given the activity in this forum, come to think of it. So much for that. Back to the shadows, then.

Hunter's Moon - Experimental Mafia with Werewolves [Closed]
Guess who's back? Anyways. Hunter's moon is a Mafia game, except with Werewolves. For those of you unfamiliar with the mechanics, here is a succinct explanation of the rules: There are two main factions in the game, the townspeople and the werewolves. The majority of players are townspeople - norma...
