Roll To Dodge: Zombies, Robots, and Aliens, Oh MY!

Post by Coximind » Sat May 08, 2010 7:23 am

So, I was playing Arkbrik's Roll To Dodge game, and decided to start one myself:
Arkbrik wrote:
Roll To Dodge Standard Rules

The GM (Game Master) posts a situation the players are in. The players then post their actions, according to the conditions GM sets. The GM then rolls for the actions' results, and writes them out in his post. Then the players post actions again, ad infinitum.

The action results are defined by a six-sided die roll:
[1]: Epic Fail. Your efforts only worsened your situation.
[2]: Fail. Your skills or luck were insufficient.
[3]: Meager success: The situation didn't improve by as much as you have intended.
[4]: Success: Your efforts were sufficient to achieve your goal.
[5]: Epic Success: Your skills and luck have combined to ensure your success.
[6]: Overshot: Your efforts were more than required for the goal's completion, and your luck is such that unfortunate side-effects are inevitable.

If at any time something threatens a player, that player may make a roll to dodge the threat.
This game will use a few additional rules.

You and most other creatures have 6 HP, large creatures have more. If you lose all your HP, you die. Most weapons do D6 damage, large weapons do more. Unarmed combat does 1 damage.

Every time you make an Overshot, you are more experienced, and either your maximum HP or combat damage (chosen randomly) is increased by 1.

If you fail to post actions for three consecutive turns, your character dies from boredom.

Now on the game.

....

Signup

There are six spots available. If a character dies, that spot becomes available for another player. You can't reserve spots, though.

You will receive equipment and your starting situation when three persons have claimed spots.
Now, plot.

In the 2011 G.R., minifigs will create yet another line of intelligent combat robots, this time managing to do it RIGHT. Unfortunately (go figure) those 'bots get pissed off. Some nearby Aliens notice, and decide to make friends with the robots. To try and combat this, the Minifigs come up with a poisonous gas to kill the Aliens. Sadly, it's better at turning 'figs into horrible Zombies.

It is now the 2021 G.R. Our game focuses on the travels and doings of five or six 'figs who have managed to survive. Now signing up shall occur!

One more thing. If you fail to specify an inventory, I will give you a Shotgun, ten shells and a Wallet with 10$.

So far we have:

Legacy
HP: 6/6
Combat damage: 1D6
Inventory: Shotgun, 10 Shotgun Shells, Wallet with 10$

Lt. Kruz
HP: 6/6
Combat damage: 1D6

RWT

Lol, nice. One of the characters needs to be their marriage counselor though, to help solve the inevitable fights.

I think I'll be that character. My inventory is as follows:

Dr. Phil's book of marriage for dummies
Reading glasses to look more professional
Two tazers for I when them both to just shut up
Wallet with $20 (10 from each of them)

@aoffan: ...No. It's not ... Brikwarsy enough, I guess. Denied.

All spots are filled. I will start next chance I get; I must go and milk goats now.
