Thread: Gantz World Tour:Beta:Manual:Part 1

Gantz world tour beta:manual:

this is a dynamic role-playing experience based on the gantz universe. Once the rules are set in motion it can run with minimal effort from any one participant. It only requires people post content to keep things moving. Your experience is up to you. The experience you have is up to you.

Gwt:cycle:
A cycle is the period between updates. For the experiment there will be a cycle every 2 days or the next available business day. The cut off will be 3:00pm the day of the cycle's end. Anything posted after that will fall under the next cycle.

Gwt:maps:
We will use google maps for mission maps. The location to be determined by what ever country is featured on cnns world news website under top world stories one day before a mission starts.
Http://www.cnn.com/world/ if the city isn''t an urban setting, the next available big city will be chosen.

Everything will be based on the principles of risk vs reward. No action/s can take place without possible consequences of said action/s just like in life.

By utilizing the various indexes of the us stock market will make all this possible. There are plenty of dynamic random numbers which can determine the outcome of action/s and even do scoring.

For the experiment we will use.
The dw jones industrial average (referred to from here on as (dw).
The nasdaq (referred to from here on as {nq).
The s&p (referred to from here on as {sp).
The dj wilshire 5000 (referred to from here on as (d5)
the russell 2000 (referred to from here on as (r2).
Others will be used if demand requires it.

* we are only interested in the fractional portion of the index used.
00000.xx where xx marks the spot.

We will use the index, the change and change percentage.
For the sake of the experiment rpg concepts in principle will remain though gwt is quite unconventional.

FOR BETA EACH ALIEN WILL USE UP TO SIX STATS OTHERS WILL BE ADDED LATER:

V = VITALITY IS YOUR HEALTH.
S1 = SPECIALTY 1 (SHORT RANGE)
S2 = SPECIALTY 2 (LONG RANGE)

W = FLIGHT
K = SUCCESSFUL ACTIONS.

FOR THE EXPERIMENT:
V - WILL START WITH 200 TO 700 VITALITY PTS. THIS IS SET BY YOU.

Bz – WILL START WITH (V * .003) NUMBER ARE ROUNDED UP.
W – WILL START WITH (V * .01) PTS.

(NO 80-100 POINTERS FOR NOW AND NO MORE THAN ONE ALIEN FOR EVERY 3 GANTZERS).

* NOTE - JUST BECAUSE AN ALIEN IS WORTH 20PTS DOESN'T MEAN YOU'LL GET 20PTS IF YOU KILL/SEND IT. THAT'S GANTZ.

gwt: objects:
Objects are things you find in mission. If you can find it in the city zone on google maps you can interact with it. Objects can be used to inflict damage on gantzers, aliens and other objects or they can be used as shields, , it's entirely up to you. The amount of damage or protection they provide depends on it's vitality. For the experiment there will be two classes of objects: Heavy and medium.

Gwt: objects:heavy:
Heavy objects (buildings, houses, trucks etc...) can be used for shelter or in the case of hospitals (gantzers) or churches (aliens) can also be used to heal. Heavy objects have a vitality of 105pts.

Gwt: objects:heavy:shield:
To use a heavy object as a shield. You must first enter it with a successful vitality action. A heavy object will provide shelter as long as it's vitality is above 0. If a heavy objects vitality is reduced to zero the building will collapse and will inflict two times it's original vitality in damage! (210pts).
Aliens can not enter shields for one day.

To enter a heavy object use form:

Statement (5v:index)
[stat line]

gwt: objects:heavy:shield:hospital:
A hospital can be used to revive a gantzer's vitality by 50pts per gantzer/vamppire if and only if your vitality is <30 and >0. Each use will reduce the hospital's vitality by 50pts. It takes one full cycle to be healed. Once entered you must stay for the entire cycle and can not attack. A hospital can be attacked during that time however.

Statement (>>50v)
[adjusted stat line]

gwt: objects:heavy:shield:church:
A church can be used to revive an alien's vitality by 50pts if and only if the alien's vitality is <30 and >0. Use for healing will reduce the church's vitality by 50pts. It takes one full cycle to be healed. Once entered you must stay for the entire cycle and can not attack. A church can be attacked during that time however.

To use a church to heal once entered use form:
Statement (>>50v)
