Combat/Weaponry

Combat is honor based and is meant to be fun. So don't cheat, simple enough? All combat will take place in real time and will be based upon individual skill.

All characters start with 5VP in combat, once that reaches 0VP, a player will be incapacitated. After a 10 second grace period, those who are incapacitated may be killed. (Incapacitation lasts for 30 seconds.)




In this game there are three weapon categories; Melee, Ranged and Lightsaber. A single character will have access to (at most) two of these three. This topic will explain the ins and outs of the weaponry found in this game.

-_Melee_-[/u]
Your weapon is made of a cortosis weave. It's strong enough to stand up against anything, even a lightsaber.
-- Damage Calculations: One point of VP damage will be dealt for hitting a limb, and two points of VP damage will be dealt for hitting the torso. **Headshots are illegal
-- Acceptable Forms: Just about any Foam/Plastic melee weapon should be fine, the Nerf N-Force weapons are supposed to work great. **Metal/Wooden weaponry is illegal

-_Ranged_-[/u]
Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side.
-- Damage Calculations: One point of VP will be dealt for hitting a limb, two points will be dealt for hitting the torso, and three points will be dealt for head shots.
-- Acceptable Forms: Any sort of ranged TOY weapon should be fine... Again the Nerf weapons are probably the way to go here. **Actual firearms are absolutely forbidden[/u]


-_Lightsabers_-[/u]
Not as clumsy or random as a blaster. An elegant weapon, for a more civilized age.
-- Damage Calculations: Lightsabers don't deal VP damage, limb shots will sever limbs and torso shots will instantly incapacitate. **Head shots are illegal
-- Acceptable Forms: Anything with a lightsaber blade on it will generally be acceptable. Electronic lightsabers aren't recommended however due to their fragile nature, but if you wish to fight with one be prepared.

Generally any modifications done to any weapons should be fine. If a weapon becomes dangerous/hazardous however it will be banned. **There will be a topic for presenting your customized weapons, alternatively you may bring them to a campaign to be inspected.
