Just make sure you let them pick their stuff back up before you take them out of the scenario, or you'll have a lot of angry players sending a lot of angry e-mail.

The party didn't appear if you killed them first, using a Kill/Raise PC node, stoning the entire party, and moving their items to a Saved Item Rectangle. It's been done before, although you have to come up with an explanation as to why the party is suddenly naked.

I had sent him an email with Necris Omego's idea quite a few weeks ago, actually, after he suggested it in a topic, if anyone remembers. He said he will put in the ability to drop items on adjacent spaces and put things away if he has time.

That is honestly one of the coolest ideas I have ever seen.

Either then that I will seriously look into joining one of those. I have sword replicas that could easily be wrapped in enough cloth to render them dangerless.
Not to mention my Archery ability.

No, a sword wrapped in cloth is not safe. There's links to webpages on that site that explain how to make basic Dagorhir garb, weapons and armor, though. They're not too expensive, though you'll usually have to order things in bulk if you want a good price. Get some friends who are interested, and split up the costs of the materials. That way, you all get all the junk you need to make the equipment for a good price.

What do you mean? I don't see a problem there. It's no worse than the graphic wielding a mace when they are actually wielding a sword.

Dagorhir is an organization that does Dark Ages battle reenactments. Well, they don't just reenact. They make weapons and armor and have big battles, and maybe have a feast afterwards. It's very safe, as long as you follow the rules. There's very specific guidelines as to which weapons are and aren't allowed. For instance, the "blade" of a sword cannot be less than 2 inches wide, or something like that. Here's the website:
Dagorhir Battle Games
I guess I didn't explain it too well, but the website does a good job. It also has links to pages explaining step-by-step how to make weapons, armor, etc.
I just thought some of the people here might find it interesting. It's certainly an improvement over what my cousins and I do- whacking each other with splintering fenceposts carved into the shape of a sword- so I thought it was great. I'm going to try to start my own Dagorhir chapter in Revere, since the closest one is in Northampton, on the other side of the state.

Sounds good to me, for the most part. As my RPs have shown, simply telling everyone to ignore the person doesn't work. There will still be complaining about the post until it is deleted, and even then, there is nothing to stop them from continuing to post anyway. Therefore, there must be some punishment for failing to comply with these shuns.

There are already axes and maces. Blow guns will most likely be possible to create as well.

quote:
A couple new characters styles from a different continent maybe a ninja style or an imperial solder character.
If you mean character classes, there won't be any. He's taking them out.

quote:
The two swords would really been cool but in stead of two hits have one be a defensive sword with a penally for deflecting missile weapons.
Defensive sword? You might as well just use a shield then.

quote:
The ability to throw more then one razor disk, ninja star at one time maybe for more action points you would get to throw 2, 3 or 4 doing more damage but with a higher accuracy penalty maybe the same with arrows.
You already can.

quote:
New spells like some area effect spells like a fire wave that lets say forms a line of 4 or 5 squares long and moves across the screen burning the enemies in it path but it does not stay put like quick fire.
Fire Wave won't work with the engine, the way you describe it. We are getting new spells, though. They'll be replacing Capture Soul and Simulacrum, and if we have our way, Terror because it doesn't do anything.

quote:
More characters would really be nice and maybe have the ability to split your party in to 2 groups and have them take two different paths in the game and also have the ability to build an army of NCP'S to help in, lets say the attack of an enemies castle.
Probably not. The split party thing is interesting, but he probably won't put it in.

quote:
The ability to hire a boat and travel across the sea to distant lands.
We already can.

quote:
Will that is all I can think of right now thou I will probly come up with some more later.

Fancy Mail is a color swap. Of course, this doesn't matter as much with items. But I think I'll make some good items later. Edits, most likely, since I can't make graphics very well from scratch.

Brett, I finally figured out why my graphics were low-quality. GIFs are a maximum of 256 colors! I tried saving them as JPEGs, but because Paint Shop Pro 6 is stupid, it blurs even when I save it with the lowest compression. I'll have to send them to you as bitmaps from now on, and you'll have to convert them to GIFs. Sorry to be a nuisance, but otherwise, the graphics are screwed up.
