Running the Gauntlet/The sea-faring solitaire
January 31, 2006
Hey all, the reaper
has returned with another Scenario for everyone to read
and enjoy... *cough*and make you worship me*cough*. No
cool intro this time though. Because its not a story
based scenario like the ones before. Its not even based
on you having an opponent. Prepare to run through the
Gauntlet!
Running the Gauntlet/The Sea-faring Solitaire:
Setup:
-Build a 50 point fleet for yourself. Then look through
your collection for:
2 5-masters
2 4-masters
4 3-masters
4 2-masters
3 1-masters
-Divide your playing area into 5 horizontal Quadrants
somehow. These will be called levels.
-Put the non-player ships into the levels as so:
Level 1- 2 1-masters
Level 2- 1 1-master and 2 2-masters
Level 3- 2 2-masters and 2 3-masters
Level 4- 2 3-masters and 2 4-masters
Level 5- 2 5-masters
-Place your ships in front of Level one
Playing:
-To finish, you must get through all 5 levels
-To finish a level, you must sink all of the ships in
that level
-Ships may not fire outside of the level they are in
-Only by finishing a level, can you move to the next.
-After your turn, every ship in the current level will
attempt to fire at the closest ship
Ranking*:
Losing in Level 1: A drunk Frenchman could fire better
than you
Losing in Level 2: Don't quit you day job. (unless this
is it, then quit. Now.)
Losing in Level 3: Not bad, we won't tell if you don't.
Losing in Level 4: The queen of Enland could use your
skill as a comander
Losing in Level 5: Calico Cat is impressed, She wants
you in her fleet. And it's not nice to say no.
Finishing the entire game: Blackbeard bends over and
starts weeping because your display was the most
beutiful thing he's ever seen.
*These are only meant to be funny, and not to cause
offense to anyone.
