Players and Characters

so we'll flip a coin for battle. heads i win, tails you lose

deal, i call heads, *flips coin* and the winner is...you....*Guo Jia has beheaded Zhao Pang, Zhao Pang has been killed*

NOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooo...............

How could you!?

im just saying there isn't a thrill to it if its 50-50 coin flipping

I'm now also taking issue with how stat points are allocated.

Arbitrariness leads to "why is my ____ skill so low? My bio says I'm a legendary ______!"

Which means that there must be no arbitrariness. Giving points for people to allocate themselves will probably lead to a lot of generals with 100 WAR and 0 everything else, but is still an option. A less popular but easier idea may be to force all new players to start with the same basic (rather low) stats.

Thoughts on any of this?

i'm liking the idea of starting with rather low stats and awarding stat points based on participation. but, still giving us the option to allocate our stats would be cool. right now either way doesn't sound too bad to me. assign them or not, and go higher or lower is nice too.

I might allow for people to have some rp means or RE-ALLOCATING their existing stats in some way; by acquiring a powerful item, or a chance meeting with a mystic or something. Also we could probably mix several ways, giving everyone base-stats and then giving them bonus points to allocate themselves.

Also a system of getting "XP" which can be traded in for stat upgrades and other goodies.

cool

This is a gooder idea.
