What Games Would You Compete In?

Post by LoSTimberWolf »

Out of all the games you own, or about to buy, which ones would you compete in, either on a ladder or in small teams with in a group (example: Ice and a few others could be one group, Me and a some other people could be anther group and our two groups can compete)?<br><br><br>On my shelf, I would be willing to compete in these games:<br><br>Age Of Empires 1<br>Armada 2<br>Bridge Commander<br>Warcraft 2 <br>Star Craft<br>Starfleet Command 1<br>Starsiege<br>X-Wing Alliance<br><br><br>I am asking this since I can't seem to find any game where my tribe is willing to stay long in. So in my mind if we set it up so several small groups (within the basic idea of [FF] to follow) with a central area to talk and challenge then we could have our own ladder that instead of just choosing maps, the teams would also have choices of games. <p><b><u>-LoS-TimberWolf</u></b><sub>vehicle specilist</sub><p><img src="http://65.108.58.179/image_upload/Mech3.jpg" align=left><hr>Click <a href="http://www.ngal.8m.net\">here</a> for wierd creatures.<p><p>"Don't Drink And Drive, Get High And Fly Home" said by Neckhole<p>"To Love A Woman Is To Know Heaven And Hell Personaly" Don't Recal Who Said This<p><hr></p><i></i>

Age of Empries 1? I was a monster at that game. I hope no one has taken my secret tactics. Good memories!, <p><img src="http://www.rit.edu/~mbt1074/Angel%20Sig ...

Starsiege, I may be willing to try. But I've not played multiplayer on it yet.

Starsiege, Homeworld, Cataclysm I would certainly be willing to compete in.<br><br>StarCraft (and Brood War) I'd also give a shot, as I have them on the shelf.<br><br>Are you thinking 2v2 games and the like? <p><BR><img src=http://scribers.midwestmail.com/ambushbug/BugSig.jpg align=LEFT><BR>Member: DTM, XMEN<BR>Professional Tank Driver<BR>Card-carrying Base-Cracker<BR>Ugly Son-Of-A-Gun<BR><BR>Bug's Tank Bumper Sticker:<br>"If you can read this, you're already street pizza."</p><i></i>

What type of game is Starsiege? I know it's in the Tribes universe but I don't know what it's about. <p><img src="http://www.rit.edu/~mbt1074/Angel%20Sig ...

Herc Combat. Like Mech Warrior series, but better. Graphics about par with Tribes 1, but still very good. I like it.. I may install it, and patch it up, and play a bit if some peeps want to go online with it. <p><div align="center"><embed width="250" height="200" src="http://www.theta_mercenaries.homestead.com/files/sphat.swf"></div><p align=center><font color=#ff0000>Why Do I Always Die?!?!?!?!</font></p></p><i></i>

My basic ideas for this are these:<br><br>- Small groups of up to 5 people (depending on the game)<br> + The Leader could choose a midsize force or small force<br><br>- The ability to select up to two games for a match, and then select 1 map per game if two games are choosen or two maps if only one game is choosen.<br> + This way if you get burned in one game you could burn them back in the next.<br> + Differnt group members have differnt strengths and this setup would let the team leader build off those easyer.<br> + Prevents groups from over playing a game, and helps people from getting PO at loosing or playing bad alot<br><br>- Any game can be played as long as atleast 2 people in each group that are battling have it.<br><br>- A forum will be hosted on a tribes board (volenterly only) were all group member can read it and post on it.<br><br>- Atleast 3 groups must be active (atleast 2 people in each group must be playing)<br><br>- Rules for each game will be agreed apon by the leaders of each group<br> + Each group will talk to their leaders about what they want to be able to do and not be able to do in each game.<br> + The leaders will gather on the forum and post a list of request from his/her group.<br> + After all leaders have posted, all the list will be combined into two colums (one of things all groups asked for, and one for things not all groups asked for but next to it will be the number of groups that did)<br><br>- This multi-game ladder will only exist as long as its members are having FUN, and any arguments that are based off of what happens on the battle field will be handled in a CIVILIZED manner on the forum in a seperate thread. <p><b><u>-LoS-TimberWolf</u></b><sub>vehicle specilist</sub><p><img src="http://65.108.58.179/image_upload/Mech3.jpg" align=left><hr>Click <a href="http://www.ngal.8m.net\">here</a> for wierd creatures.<p><p>"Don't Drink And Drive, Get High And Fly Home" said by Neckhole<p>"To Love A Woman Is To Know Heaven And Hell Personaly" Don't Recal Who Said This<p><hr></p><i></i>

I would like to play NeverWinter Nights with you guys. It would be so cool to have our party of players get together and go through the official campaign. Ravok = Half-Orc.<br><br> <p></p><i></i>

Just about every tribe I know has at least a few people interested in Neverwinter Nights, though there hasn't been as much buzz over at oV as I would like. Still, there shouldn't be any problems finding a game. <p><img src="http://www.rit.edu/~mbt1074/Angel%20Sig ... "0"><br>We are right, praying metal tonight.
