Burn baby!

Postby Judock Harald » Wed Oct 07, 2009 9:19 pm

I like to suggest the following:

Making it possible to make a large fire. by this, you can burn:
- Body's (in a ceremonial way)
- Shacks or buildings (when you attack an enemy town)
- Burn litter.

For this there is a need for burnable material. some kinds of fuel burn very good, wood of course also. but you need some stuff to enlight it, some dry grass.
Tools:
- lighter
- matches

And it is possible to "destroy" the fire, using buckets of water.

First of all Joo, go to hell. Preferably the one with fire.

Secondly, I like this idea.

Burning bodies would carry a ton of meaning not just a ceremonial one, burning buildings down would create new demand for people to work together to make new machines and what not, and we all know how much of a demand there's been for burning litter.

However, I think burning down buildings should be a long project, not just a simple "light a match and forget!". With a system set up where shacks and grass huts are easiest to burn. And marble/brick buildings are the most difficult.

Sounds like another way for you to rid cantr of characters..

Which brings me to a serious question. Does this cover lighting living characters on fire? So we can burn people at the stake finally?

It's alright, I was only thinking of your characters. We probably shouldn't be implementing suggestions for one person's benefit only.

The only contact you've had with my chars has come through the use of a blade.

I never denied your point, so there was no need for you to prove it. I enjoy killing people with one of my characters. It's fun and funny on a personal basis and it's the way the world has made that char in an ig basis. The only problem is I seem to have trouble finding time to bury em. Hence why I want to burn em.

Not this suggestion again. And why would then a body need to be dead first?

please can we talk about the suggestion, not of our personal handicaps?

Thanks for the positive reactions.
Of course it must not be possible to set living people on fire. Maybe it can be possible to set yourself on fire, but not someone else.

i would love to burn down shacks they are ugly (according to a couple of my chars) who would burn them if it was possible, bu in terms of brick and stone and marble buildings, those should be completely resistant, i mean, fireplaces are made with stone for a reason :P

READ my suggestion before reacting pleeeeaassee....

Ye i agree Victor. But do you know that marble and stone that cotaining calcium crumbles in very high heat? in that way, only an extremely heat fire can destroy the building, but absolutely at last will leave a ruin.
Interesing is, that this ruin is a source of new stone, and can be used for new buildings. Also what was in, metal stuff, resist the fire a little bit, and can be again gathered. Or saving tot the future of course, to inform our children about the horrible piratesattack.
