Monoplox Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 (edited) Because it was only a matter of time, let's be honest. Also Fe8 because of the 3 gbas, it's likely the most forgiving to a randomized draft. we're all gonna die! I'm sure we'll be fine.So, just setting up some rules about the randomization before we move ahead to the standard drafty bits. If you don't have the randomizer, it's easily found, and is dead simple to use. Maybe that goes without saying but, oh well. Furthermore, the randomized aspects can be debated before we all get going, but my rough starting suggestion would be: Side note: I forgot to switch the recruitment option back to normal. My bad. But i do think normal would be best to avoid mass confusion.It'd also be best to have a fresh rom for this one. Trying to randomize over old randomizations or any sort of tinkering makes things messy.Now let's forge ahead to the draft aspect!Drafting:1. This draft is for 4 players.2. Eirika/Ephraim, Orson, and a dancer unit (should you receive one) are all free to use.3. The game will be played on Normal Mode.Rules:1. Undrafted units may recruit characters, rescue undrafted units and NPCs, trade, visit Shops and Armories and dig up items in the desert.2. Undrafted units may not do anything not listed above, including but not limited to meatshielding, building Supports, and opening Doors or Chests.3. Map shopping is allowed.4. Skirmishes/use of the Tower or Ruins is disallowed. Skirmishes that are blocking your path may be activated and played, though the turns taken will add to your total.5. Defend chapters count the last played Player Phase for turns if the timer is waited out.Penalties:1. Undrafted units have a 4 turn penalty, per unit per chapter.Teams:Ozarhok : Franz, Ross, Saleh, Ewan, Innes, Callech, Valter, Orson, Vanessa, Dozla, LyonGeneral Horace : L'archel, Natasha, Cormag, Eirika, Ismaire, Hayden, Joshua, Gerik, Seth, Fado, LyonSniper Knight : Marisa, Rennac, Moulder, Ephraim, Gilliam, Lute, Selena, Artur, Riev, LyonMonoplox : Knoll, Tana, Forde, Glen, Colm, Amelia, Dussel, Garcia, Kyle, Tehtys, LyonRemaining Units:None Edited October 16, 2015 by Monoplox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozarhok Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 This looks like it'd be real silly playthrough. Is there a rule against doing multiple drafts at once? I'd like to join this as I doubt there will be anything else like this anytime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sniper Knight Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 (edited) I'd like to try! There might be a small issue with drafting, though, since, barring only a few units, we'd all be drafting based on recruitment order. I'd say that randomized recruitment might be better. (Since then we'd be choosing on bias.) Edited October 15, 2015 by Sniper Knight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monoplox Posted October 15, 2015 Author Share Posted October 15, 2015 I'm fine going back to random. And with four participants, here's the draft order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Horace Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 One thing to consider in FE8 Randomized Recruitment is it also includes creature campaign units (Ismaire, Fado, etc) so we should either add them to the draftable unit list if we're going random recruitment. And I assume we just get whoever becomes Eirika/Ephraim/Orson for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being the case, they should probably be thrown in the pot too. And I'll chuck in the creature camp gang too. Here's hoping my team isn't all post game.

Ozarhok Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Seeing as just about everything about every unit is randomized and who knows who's going to be useful, I'm going to pick Franz, he comes on the second chapter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Horace Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 if we're doing randomized recruitment, Franz could come in Syrene's spot (or worse...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozarhok Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 So wait, if everything about every character, class, base stats, growth rates, and even when they're recruited is randomized, wouldn't that make who we specifically choose pointless and we can basically choose whoever we want?

General Horace Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Yeah pretty much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniper Knight Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 *cries because I'll probably be stuck with Eirika's replacement only until C10* But yeah, like I said, we'll be choosing based on bias. (M-MARISA-CHAN! <3) She actually is my first pick, by the way, since I'll be afk for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozarhok Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 If that's the case, then why don't we skip the typical draft rules and have each player just pick 10 or whatever unit's they'd like in order if no one know who's getting what when, or at least have everyone pick more than one person to speed things up. Or heck, maybe take it a step further and have everyone's units randomized to further keep in the spirit of this draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Horace Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I was going to randomize my picks anyway, i'd be down with that. If people want to actually pick, my choice is... L'Arachel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monoplox Posted October 15, 2015 Author Share Posted October 15, 2015 So are we going traditional?or super duper randomized? If its normal, I'll pick knoll and tana. ( its 2 right?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozarhok Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Personally I'd say we all just randomize the rest of the choices just to start as soon as possible, unless some people want certain characters, which we could always trade with one another.

General Horace Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 i'll literally take whoever's left among the units you guys pick if you guys wanna do that. If not I take... Natasha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monoplox Posted October 15, 2015 Author Share Posted October 15, 2015 Since there seem to be 41, we could have one person randomize all, then take ten each, (1-10, 11-20 ect.) and call 41 another freebie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Horace Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 i'm cool with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozarhok Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I took the liberty of doing so, each group is in the draft order, with the picked units taken into account: The free unit for everybody would be Lyon, how fitting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Horace Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 So we just get the list that's in our drafting order? So since I picked second i'll get the second list? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monoplox Posted October 15, 2015 Author Share Posted October 15, 2015 So we just get the list that's in our drafting order? So since I picked second i'll get the second list? Well you and i both had two picks, and the others had one. Lists one and two have 9 units, whereas 3 and 4 have 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
