Welcome, Leaders, to your first Epic Challenge!
You've all survived two TC's so far...let's see if you made the right choices...
This challenge will take place over the course of the next two days in two rounds:
THE DEFENSE ROUND (Tuesday-Wednesday night)
&
THE ATTACK ROUND (Wednesday-Thursday night)
DEFENSE ROUND (Tuesday-Wednesday night)
The object of the DEFENSE ROUND is to build up your tribe's defenses (aka "defense points") as much as possible before the ATTACK ROUND
Below are the defensive structures/units you may build/train to defend your tribe. Some structures, such as a Castle, Walls, and Moat, may only be built once. You may construct a maximum of 10 towers. And there is no restrictions to the number of archers you may train.
CASTLE = (can only build 1) = (100 posts) = 1000 defense points
WALLS = (can only build 1) = (75 posts) = 750 defense points
MOAT = (can only build 1) = (50 posts) = 500 defense points
TOWER = (maximum of 10 built one at a time) = (25 posts for each tower) = 250 defense points for each tower
ARCHERS = (any amount trained one at a time) = (10 posts for each archer) = 100 defense points for each archer
CONSTRUCTING A DEFENSIVE STRUCTURE:
To construct a defensive structure, start a new thread in your Tribe Forum entitled "(Your Tribe's)(Defensive Structure)". Start a new thread for each structure.
Posting Rules
1. 3 players must post before you may post again. Obviously, the first 3 people to post on any structure ignore this rule.
2. You may work on as many structures as there are available provided you follow the first rule. You may only build one tower and train one archer at a time. (You can build 1 tower AND train 1 archer at the same time if you wish, you just may not build or train an additional archer or tower while another is being built) Once one is complete you may build another (with a maximum of 10 towers).
Each structure requires a certain number of posts (see above). To contribute towards the post-count post "(Your Name) builds (Defensive Structure), (# of posts) remaining" as a reply to the appropriate thread. For example, if I was the first player to post on the Castle, I would post "Zeus builds Castle, 99 posts remaining" as a reply to the "MY TRIBE'S Castle" thread. Aphrodite could post after me, two more players would need to post, and then I could post again. Once, the # of posts remaining hits zero, the structure is considered complete. I could also post on the Moat, A tower, etc. at the same time if three other players had posted before me.
If a mistake is made, delete or edit your post and correct it. Any errors in posting after the Defense Round is complete will result in an unfinished structure and will not contribute to your tribe's over-all Defense Score.
THE DEFENSE ROUND WILL BE OVER WEDNESDAY, APRIL 28TH AT 10PM EST (9PM CST).
No posts after that time will be accepted.
THE ATTACK ROUND (Wednesday night-Thursday night)
(The Attack round will begin once the hosts have posted the total defense points each tribe was able to accumulate. We will attempt when possible to keep score as you go, but if these results are not posted right at 10PM EST please be patient.)
WEAPON OF CHOICE:
For the Attack Round, you may arm yourself with one weapon. You may only use one weapon for the duration of the challenge. Each weapon has its own amount of damage points and posting restrictions. (See below)
The catch: Only 2 players may share the same weapon.
To declare which weapon you are choosing, start a new thread in your Tribe Forum entitled "Weapon of choice" and claim your weapon. You must claim a weapon here before you may use it to attack. This may be done during the Defense Round as well. Remember, only two players may choose the same weapon.
CATAPULT = 50 damage - can fire once per hour
WAR ELEPHANT = 30 damage - can attack every 30 minutes
HORSE ARCHER = 25 damage - can attack every 20 minutes
SAMURAI = 20 damage - can attack every 15 minutes
LEGION = 15 damage - can attack every 10 minutes
WAR CHARIOT = 10 damage - can attack once every 5 minutes
ATTACKING
Attacking is done similarly to building up your defenses. The hosts will post the total amount of Defense Points the other tribe was able to accumulate as a new thread in each tribe's forums entitled "Defense Points". To attack, simply reply to this thread with the following post:
"(You name) uses (Your weapon of choice). -(# of damage your weapon does) defense points. (# of defense points remaining) defense points remaining."
So for example, if I had chosen to use the War Elephant, and the opposing tribe had accumulated 1000 defense points, I would post, as a reply to the "Defense Points" thread,
"Zeus uses War Elephant. -30 defense points. 970 defense points remaining."
NOTE: Unlike building up your defenses you do not need to wait for 3 other players to post, you only need to wait as long as your Weapon Of Choice requires.
WINNING
The first tribe to completely destroy all of the other tribe's defenses will win.
If no tribe has completely destroyed the other tribe's defenses by Thursday, April 29th at 11pm EST, the tribe that gets the closest will win.
PHARAOH'S
The Pharaoh will be determined by the player who contributes the most to both parts of the challenge. This will be done by post count, actual damage done factoring in only in the case of a tie.
