Alternative Attack

[funetik]

Pushing people into firepits and fireplaces!

It'd be the same as a normal attack - you could only do it once a day.

If somebody had been thrown into a firepit a few times they could be scarred for life.

He is in his twenties. His face is severely disfigured due to burning. He wears nothing worth mentioning. He is walking in direction south-south-west. He is walking at your speed, behind you, facing the direction you are going.

I'm not sure how much damage this should do. Maybe around the same as punching?

...and what about chucking 'em in the sea... maybe one time in ten they'd be drowned, Can you throw someone off a boat? Walking the plank.

Walking the plank sounds like a joyful option.
So are you saying if it was implemented you would be happy to see a boat docked and for whoever sails to take the whole town and drag them to a walk the plank option.
Sounds like it would be an easy way to pick off a whole town.
Even if there was a one in ten chance of the person being drowned. if it's an option you could just keep trying until technically they all drowned.
Perhaps if it was an idea it could only happen once undocked.
Failing that try shoving them in a fire pit.
Wow! this game gets more violent
Your'll be calling for lion pits like a colosseum next.
Ther'll be betting on which newspawn survives.

1469 you hear a man in his forties say : Yes son, make it through the fire rolling, the walk the plank and finally the lions and the bone knife's yours, so just drop the notes you took and we can get on with the ritual fire walking...

I'd like to see hit and run car attacks. I mean you have a massive chunk of metal at your fingertips.
But Cantr has no fatal accidents. Either they drive really well or walking Cantrians are good dodgers.
Maybe you could use the car for an attack option at a undecided rate of damage.
So it would either... they would be fatally wounded or just a bump.
Would help with thief chasing would it not.?

Fine ideas

You see Klojt Shoeshop Delivery Van plough down a man in his twenties.

You see Bailey's Circus Freaks (galleon) docking.

You see an elephant being herded by PT Barnum enter the town.

That's what I want to do.

OMG ROTFALOLWPMP(Rolling on the flore and laughing out loud wile peaing my pants. i know, not verry funny, but it does describe how i feal about that last post.)

Ok... let me put my two scents in.

I like the idea of pusing people into fire pits, or ovens, or anything. This rignt here would be the start of torturing newspawns....

"TELL ME WERE THE NOTE IS!!! oh, so your playing sleaping sickness, eh? WELL TAKE THIS"

you see evil person push note theif into the fire pit.

....... another posibility for your evil carracters to be evil and mean to unsuspecting stupid note theives and nespawnes who don't know their own name yet........

As for walking the plank, I think you should wait untill tiredness is a little more effectiv before implumenting this... or any other thing in this topic too.(seriously, 6 elephants heardid by one man?)

as fore hitting people with the car, EXELENT IDEA!! although on the roads, you should be at least 5% close to them.. or somthing like that, to be able to do that. and only once per persin, otherwise everyone in the car could just attack the same man. This would allow for hit and runs, contiplated and funded assasinations, and would allow for people to act like they are horrible drivers and accadentally run into people.......

I don't see a clear benefit to be gained from this suggestion. Neither do I have a clear idea of how it might be implemented.

[funetik]

lmao @ the elephants..

That'd be brilliant

Aw, c'mon, Sho. Lighten up a little
You can't see the benefit of pushing people into firepits, making people walk the plank, elephant armies or hit and runs?? :O

Where aren't the benefits?

keel-haul'd be better.

If ProgD had unlimited time, we could consider additions to the game "just for fun." But as it is, there are a lot of changes I'd rather see than this, particularly when nobody has really specified how any of these new features are supposed to function. I can't even tell if there's a possibility of these changes disrupting game balance, which is very possible if they were to be designed poorly (case in point: what MakeBeliever said).

Suggestions are serious business.

[sanchez]

I'm serious about keel-hauling. Dragging someone, indefinitely, onboard a boat as a means of immobilizing them. Could be useful.

[Pie]

thats why i think somone should be able to do this only once per day, not once per day to person, but just once per day.
