Title: Not Quite Chinese Whispers [Inactive]
Post by: Squirrel_Monkey on May 03, 2016, 09:08:17 AM: This is something I've wanted to do for a long time. Basically a crossover between NQRW and Chinese Whispers.
Of course I'm not sure how it would work in terms of components allowed but I was thinking we could have a couple of replicas allowed per team and have certain replicas banned.
E.g. Each team may veto 2 replicas from the pool of available components. Then each team may choose 2 from those remaining.

I'll need to write up a full set of rules but it should be DSL 2.2 HW with teams of 4 or 5 depending on numbers.

So, should it happen? I'm open to format suggestions and ways to control overpowered replica components.

In terms of replica parts, just ban the overpowered weapons used on certain replicas (i.e. Hworf Blades and the Shish-Kabot spike tip). Other than than, I can't think of much that needs to be banned.
