Rpg formats
« on: May 30, 2006, 05:03:31 pm »
Let's come up with some RPG formats. That way when someone comes up with an RPG game we can suggest a format for the game. or we use the formats to create our own RPG games.If you have an idea for a format just post it.

We will adhere to one format, and that is the one with the dice.

I did mine with an alias thing on mIRC fychat.

/alias /dice { %rolled = $$1 | %dice = $$2 | %result = $rand($calc(%rolled * 1), $calc(%rolled * %dice)) | %output = | /say Results from %rolled $+ d $+ %dice $+ : %result }

i think that's it.

you just copy it and paste it into your mIRC chat box, and then press Enter.

After that, you type in /dice A B, where A is the number of dice you want to roll and B is the number of sides on your dice.

Its more then useful, its necassary.  Without dice rolls you can't play the RPG.

Actualy, you might be able to have a RPG without randomness, by just comparing stats, and maybe also having bonuses/penalties in a rock, paper, scissors fashion.

maybe if you had been paying attention you would know that he was just mentioning a way to determine things WITHOUT dice.

Yes there are many creative ways to do this. Dice, R,P,S, and others.

Why would you do rock paper scissors if you got a 20-sided die? You wouldn't unless you DIDN'T. It's an ALTERNATIVE WAY. So don't twist his words, cyberboy.

Also, the main idea of what I was saying was to just use straight stats, but to have bonuses and penalties for certain items/abilities/spells when used against other items/abilities/spells. I was thniking these bonuses would have to be in a circular fashion like in rock, paper, scissors in order to prevent one from being supreme.
