Idea stolen from:
https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?topic=15334.0Howdy everyone! While Samurai Showdown winds down, I figured I'd get this up for discussion. You can check that link there for the original ruleset; here's my take on it:
- Stock MW (May change to DSL if no one likes stock)
- Everyone enters 3 robots. Team themes are encouraged but not mandatory. Robots must display controlled movement to be accepted.
- I don't mind doing AIs, but I'm not very good at it, so if you want it done right, do it yourself.
- Matches will be held in the DSL Tournament Arena, hazards on.
- Each robot in a team will fight one robot from the opposing team, for a total of three fights per round.
- Before each match, each player will PM the order they'd like to use their robots in. If they don't send the PM by a set deadline, their bot order will be randomized.
- The winning player will swap one robot from his team with one robot from the losing team. Again, if they do not choose by a set deadline, the switch will be randomly selected.
- There will be a loser's bracket, because that should be fun.
- Standard building rules, i.e. no BFE or AAM or whatever other crazy nonsense. No cheatbot components either.
- Matches with havoks will be rerun. Havoks will not be shown unless they are particularly interesting.
- Ideally, there will be 16 entrants.
- I will not enter due to balancing issues.
And of course,
- For winning Samurai Showdown, one of 090901's bots may be 0.1 kg over the weight limit (399.1 kg).
So, any interest? Also, is it okay to just steal the idea?
