So What kinda House are you....really ?
« on: December 18, 2005, 11:55:41 am »
OK
As everyone (I think) knows by now there were going to be 3 kinds of houses
(PVP ,Sci,Eco) for KCW, after having (litterally) a page of VP's I've confused myself
so..

There will be two kinds of House for KCW; PVP, and territorial
The VP scheme is still being balanced, but essentially..

Territorial- These are the houses that have embraced the reality of
               the situation. Love it or hate it, whomever controls the economy
               and infrastructure of the Empire controls the Empire.

-these Houses will gain more points for control of planets/mines/stations
 etc (ie they're the hex flipping houses) A territorial house gains @ 3x the points
for  holding a type of objective
They also gain bonus points for holding "sets" of objectives(think Risk cards..)
-They only score 1 pt for a PVP win, although their disengagement rules are lax
 they also score fewer points for a challenge victory

PVP- These are the "Warriors" They have not quite yet managed to grasp the concept
        that there is a bit more to War than killing the other guy.
       
-These houses score 3pts for every PVP kill, they are bound by (insanely) stringent
 disengagement rules
-they score only 1/3 or less of what a territorial house does for holding an objective and will
not receive any bonus points for holding "sets" of objectives.
(Risk was a bit too complicated for these guys)

Right now objective hexes are worth (30/10) (15/5) (5/1)
As mentioned this could change (still running calculations of how many kills/planet etc)

>> Please Note- It may not be balanced, it will (I believe) be far harder for pvp
house to pull off a win. Or it may not... who knows? (I hate math anyway)

Anywho... What I need is confirmation (posted here) of what your house wants to fly
What I have now is..
Korgath is PVP
K'Hunt is PVP
KBF is PVP
Swhatvever is territory
Kinyasomething is territory
D'emons is territory
KHH is PVP
9TH is territory.

It'll likely be something silly like you can't disengage unless you're outnumbered by 2
(ie 2-1,3-2 get fought- of course if your partner dies in a 3v2 then it's a 3v1 and you can flee)
Of course the C7 will be exempt from any such rule.

Equal number can't run should be fine, and I'd INCLUDE the C7's in that.

On second thought, what is thw point of the challeneges of you nobody can disengage anyway?

-Even number battles must be fought out by the PVP houses (standard disenegagment rules for territory)
-PVP house may only disengage if they are outnumbered 3-1 *
-C7 May run (just because) but unless it's outnumbered the house leader is overthrown
 (ie someone else must fly the thing- Leader can still run the house)

-There is no disengagement under any circumstance for a Challenge, if you fly off the board
 you are considered destroyed and your cowardly ways will be brought to the attention of all
 pilots.
 You'll be of lower social rank than even t00l.

*It'll probably be OK for PVP house to disengage if outnumbered 2-1, there aren't slot of pilots
who would win that

I would think the point would be the ability to call your opponent to the match, rather than hunt for him.  ;)

At 2v1, I think those above rules are perfect.

<sigh>
children..
pay attention now

Nowhere have I said there can be only one (cuz that would be copywright infringement)
PVP house.
Just thought I'd mention now that it's easier for the territorial houses
Because you know,
Well
Actually you all suck and I don't want to have to listen to your excuses later.
Perhaps take a day to mull it over? Think of getting to fight the AI... I mean
I assume the KBF will give me a few hours of entertainment while I work through thier roster
And I haven't killed DH yet, but the rest of you poseurs are going to have some problems...

YES,  D'Emon house IS and was to be a PvP house.  Never did it receive any notice of any change from the start of this months ago(when Hexx actually got an idea, and it was actually a good one).  This set of postings is the first I have ever seen of us not being a PvP house.

Some quotes to confirm this would be:

Hey TT, FSD would be really welcomed to house of D'Emon  (hope i spelled it right, been a while since i saw it spelled).  You can help me run a PvP house, would love the FSD aid if at all possible

And this classic one:

This will be a point thread for info on the houses for KCW

UI's are as follows- As there are (imo) too many issues with the map
for using the pirate interface (namely repawn & resupply points)
we'll be going with Racial UI's for the moment.
These were chosen based off of random ('cept for the lyran one)
selection & your picks.
It should be noted that the further down the picks list that your UI was,
the more favourable your map setup will be.
In no way will it be dominate, but your resources will not be *quite*
as far apart.

(pvp)House of wIysuhl -Klingon
(ter)House of K'hnshy'a -ISC
(ter)House of HutDIch - Gorn
(pvp)House of D'emons -Lyran

(pvp)House of Korgath -Kzin
