WeaponsofMassConstruction Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 (edited) Generic welcome statement. This is similar to all the other drafts populating the boards these days; credit to oval for being awesome. I'll be participating, so 4 more can sign up. The goal is lowest turn count and the drafting order will be randomized. Preliminary rules: 1. Normal Mode 2. Undrafted characters must stay out of combat, cannot visit villages or shops, cannot support, and cannot rescue drafted characters unless you wish to incur a 4 turn penalty, which may be adjusted in some cases. Trading is still legal. 3. Roy, Marcus (when forced), and Rutger (to equalize boss killing) are free for everyone to use. 4. No RNG abuse. Feel free to ask questions about any of the rules. [spoiler=Team 1: Janissary]1. Lance 2. Saul 3. Astohl 4. Wade 5. Percival 6. Klein 7. Fir 8. Dorothy 9. Sofiya 10. Wendy [spoiler=Team 2: Slowking]1. Miredy 2. Chad 3. Lalum 4. Lott 5. Treck 6. Lilina 7. Sue 8. Zeis 9. Yodel 10. Hugh [spoiler=Team 3: Integrity]1. Dieck 2. Ellen 3. Zealot 4. Shin 5. Elphin 6. Barth 7. Dayan 8. Bartre 9. Cath 10. Garret [spoiler=Team 4: Weapons]1. Allen 2.

Deliriyum Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 (edited) I will join. lol if I join this it will be my 3rd one I'm in at once. Also, I request having 1st pick in the draft. Edited July 28, 2010 by Core Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janissary Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 (edited) I want 2nd pick (I'd love normal mode btw because I really don't wanna finish my FE6 playthrough XD). Hi Core. I just like playing with you in these things! Edited July 28, 2010 by Janissary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Cynthia- Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 1. What about theives? Are you just out of luck without picking Chad/Astohl? 2. Gaiden chapters. is it the normal 'skip them unless you really want to go' sort of deal, or is there some incentive for going to them?

Janissary Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Cynthia actually makes a good point about Gaidens. As for Theives, considered how muc Bolting goes around, I'm not sure I'd even want a thief :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deliriyum Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Yeah.. I would also advocate Normal mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeaponsofMassConstruction Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 No requesting draft positions. 1. At some point chest keys and door keys become buyable, and steals IIRC wouldn't give someone that much of an advantage, so I don't think thief picks are unbalanced. 2. Right now I don't know whether to require them and finish the game post chapter 22 or let the game end after 22. I'll say they're required for now.

Janissary Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Oh your doing randomization? Cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Cynthia- Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 (edited) Only issue I see with requiring gaidens is that you can screw yourself out of them. IE Zealot died in C7, you go to Ilia, your run is ruined forever. Maybe some sort of penalty for not defeating Idoun(100 turns? 120 turns?)

Janissary Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 If we do normal mode, it's easy enough to keep everyone alive from what I have seen of the mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeaponsofMassConstruction Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 If you miss a gaiden, I guess an obscenely large penalty works. Normal mode is probably going to be taken, now. Also, Marcus is only free use when forced. Lastly, thieves are free to deploy to pick up stuff in the desert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 The Draft Tournament craze is worse than the FE8 Rankings craze and the FE6 Playthroughs craze combined. And that's awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anouleth Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 I would like to volunteer for this as well. Good call on giving Roy/Marcus/Rutger for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 If there's still a slot, I'll throw my lot in. Why not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeaponsofMassConstruction Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 And that's 5. We'll be playing normal mode unless any objections arise. The order is: 1. Janissary 2. Slowking 3. Integrity 4. Weapons 5. Core OP will be edited shortly and we can begin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janissary Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Man, first pick. That's a shame, I have no idea who to go with. I wnated to see how you guys would draft. I guess I will pick Lance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anouleth Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Miledy pls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 And with that Integrity would like to draft DICK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeaponsofMassConstruction Posted July 28, 2010 Author Share Posted July 28, 2010 Allen for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narga_Rocks Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Why am I not surprised that the first 4 to go were those 4? Miledy/Dieck > the cavs here, though, since they can't support each other. At least they can still support Roy, though. Hey, I guess Roy may actually get an A support now. Might. He's still 2 move slower than them. And 3 slower when they promote until nearly the end of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Cynthia- Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 It's NM though, so Lance/Allan's statistical issues matter less. Having one of them around for the early chapters should help a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narga_Rocks Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 (edited) It's NM though, so Lance/Allan's statistical issues matter less. Having one of them around for the early chapters should help a lot. Oh right. It was originally HM then got switched. Yeah, they were pretty awesome on NM even underleveled and somewhat stat-screwed (for me). Even without their support they should be helpful at proper levels and if they keep to their averages. Miledy is probably still better, though she isn't around early-on. Dieck on the other hand is cool. You just need someone to carry him around.

Deliriyum Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Wow I've never played this game all the way through before so my choice is really hard. Clarine, Gonzales Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeaponsofMassConstruction Posted July 29, 2010 Author Share Posted July 29, 2010 Thany. Looking at NM stats for characters with HM bonuses is kind of unusual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janissary Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 (edited) Gonzales went 2nd round without HM bonus. Bull. Why do people see his awesome?!? As for Miledy->Cavs, I disagree because in NM Miledy enters without an ability to double. Considering both Cavs join 12 chapters earlier with staes that are close enough, I think the Cavs are probably better. EDIT: What is the final ruling for theives?
