I have no idea what I'm doing, but I guess that shouldn't be a problem! Membership number 5447764. And my dude will be Love, the Strangler. Tunicate fucked around with this message at 06:51 on Aug 8, 2014 |

my dad posted:I've planned a gimmick that would be completely useless 1v1, but might actually be decent in a 3v3. Only one way to find out. All points into discipline, right? Wait until the first guy dies, and the rest of them will be too horrified to fight.

Ramc posted:How do stranglers with their small size but strength+++ sort out in this? Not very well I finally started tesfs, hoping to exploit the new broken strangle mechanics, but it seems the AI is still too dumb to use its ability to instakill anything in three actions.

Darn, if that latch on for the unarmored neck had lasted a little longer, Love would have vampired Cat to death.

I'd be interested in seeing some three faction fights, or set them in a different section of the arena, or something like that.

Bene Elim posted:An arena that's fair for a three being free-for-all is impossible in DF thanks to the squared grid. It's a great idea and something I'd love to see, but there would always be one fighter further away from the other two (and therefore at an advantage) or one player stuck in between the others (bad for obvious reasons. Put them in the maze at an equal distance.

SynthOrange posted:That's pretty much all Love did for the last quarter of the match. Shaking a human around by the head. Love doesn't quite understand kissing. Fortunately, that brings my 77 dwarfbux up to 276. If only I had bet heavily on this match instead of the last one.

In retrospect, naming my fighter after the tennis term for 'no points' was a bad idea.

Spermy Smurf posted:Also: if you are a big dude wrestling and striking are helpful. If you are little, it sucks balls. We did some testing and this is why the strangler on our team went with biting because we found biting to be far more effective for a little dude than wrestling/striking. Yeah, it's pretty hilarious how superior teeth are to using four arms.

Hey, the macro and new arena setup seems to have at least one problem - I redownloaded Love and it enters OAKEN HELMS instead of OAKEN HELM, which prevents the autocomplete from working. EDIT: I can't seem to make any wooden high boots or gauntlets either. Tunicate fucked around with this message at 03:07 on Sep 15, 2014 |

Sorry, I'll have them up in a bit. EDIT: Okay, up. I don't really understand how DF body plans work, but I suspect (hope) that 90% of a molemarian counts as its 'lower body'. Tunicate fucked around with this message at 09:30 on Oct 4, 2014 |

Sizes, traits, et cetera, should all be rolled upon choosing your race, and remain throughout the tournament. It's the only way to make it appropriately convoluted.
