View Full Version : Life of a Zergling - Game Started!

Kouy is almost over and this recruitment is going to last untill that game is finished so I don't narrating two games at once (not that it would be impossible:smallcool:).
Anyhow this thread is for recruitment and may also be for further balancing of the game if anyone got any suggestions.
Life of a Zergling
Not a Werewolf game
The Overmind has just been killed and the swarm has been thrown into disarray and chaos, now only the strongest and most adapted can survive.
A number of Zerglings have survived the Overmind’s death but have now turned against each other. Only one of them can survive this…
The Rules
This game will consist of one round that will be repeated until there is only one player left in the game.
During every round all players can choose between the following four actions (or use a special ability):
Actions
Attack (Vote for another player)
This is done by sending your vote to the game leader. The player with the most votes every round will be removed from the game and all his energy will be splinted as equally as possible between the players that voted for the player that was lynched.
The first players that voted for the lynched player will get the largest share of that Energy if it can’t be divided equally.
If you voted for a player that was not lynched this round you will lose 1 Energy.
Gather Energy
This option will let you gain 1 Energy this round, after a number of rounds this option will no longer be available.
Burrow
You borrow yourself in the ground, protection yourself from incoming attacks and abilities.
Reducing the total votes against you by 1 vote and you will also lose 1 energy, this might protect you from certain special abilities as well.
Scout
You will spy on another zerg finding out what they are doing and how energetic they are. Select a player, at the end of the round you will learn what kind of action that player used during that round and how much energy he/she had at the beginning and the end of the round.
Note: If a player doesn't' use any actions or special abilities for two rounds he/she is killed by protoss and his/her energy is lost to everyone.
Energy
It’s your energy that makes you able to attack and defend yourself against the other zergs, if you would lose all your energy you will automatically die.
Every player will start with 5 Energy that they can use however they want, but be careful so it don’t run out of it.
Mutation Forms
You can sacrifice some of your energy to transform yourself into other species of zergs, to transform will make you unable to take any other actions for one round.
You start of as a Zergling but can mutate yourself into all kind of forms. Once you have mutated into another form you can't change it unless you mutate from a mutalisk to a guardian.
Hydralisk, 5 Energy: Your attack vote count as 2 instead of 1.
Ultralisk, 6 Energy: Your attack vote counts as 3 instead of 1.
Mutalisk, 5 Energy: Votes made against you by Zerglings, Ultralisks and Guardians only counts as 0.5 instead of their normal amount, but you lose the ability to burrow.
Guardian, Requires Mutalisk form, 2 Energy: Like the mutalisk votes made against you by Zerglings, Ultralisks and other Guardians count as 0.5 instead of their normal amount. Your vote count as 3 instead of 1 but you can't burrow.
Defiler, 3 Energy: You can no longer vote but you will gain the following abilities: Consume, Dark Swarm and Plague.
Queen, 4 Energy: You are a flier like the Mutalisk and the guardian. Therefore votes made against you by Zerglings, Ultralisks and Guardians only count as 0.5. Queens can't vote at all or burrow but have the following abilities:
Spawn Broodlings, Parasite and Ensnare.
Special Abilities (like the queen and the defiler have)
Special abilities can be used instead of the normal actions and tend to cost more Energy but are on the other hand more powerful.
Consume, Costs 2 energy to use: Select a target player, if that player would die during this round you will gain all his/her energy.
Dark Swarm, Costs 2 Energy to use: Summon a swarm of small flying creatures to protect yourself or another Zerg from ranged attacks for one round.
The Zerg is protected from votes made by Hydralisks, Mutalisks and Guardians (this is reducing attack votes made by them on the selected player to 0).
Ensnare, Costs 0 Energy to use: Ensnares another Zerg in a sticky green fluid making them unable to move. If that Zerg would make any action expect burrow or a special ability (like Dark Swarm) prevent that action, the energy cost of that action is still spend.
Parasite, Costs 2 Energy to use: Infecting another Zerg with a parasite. At the end of every round after you have infected it, the queen will return to the infected zerg to collect 1 energy from its parasite.
It will also find out what the infected zerg did during his turn. The parasite can only infect one zerg at the time.
Plague, Costs 1 Energy to use: Sickens another Zerg making it lose 2 Energy before it can recover, this effect is prevented if that Zerg is burrowed.
Spawn Broodlings, Costs 3 Energy to use: Infecting another Zerg with broodlings, killing it and its energy is lost to everyone, this also prevents the zerg from doing any non-burrow actions. Burrowed players are immune to this.
Trust me its not nearly as complicated as it may look...

Aren't the voting rules worded in such a way that pretty much everyone will jump on whichever bandwagon springs up first? If you don't end up a bandwagon you end up losing energy, while if you are on one you gain some. Looks like a no-brainer to me.

I have now made the following changes:
-The Queen is improved and her ability Parasite have been changed into this:
Parasite, Costs 2 Energy to use: Infecting another Zerg with a parasite. at the end of every round after you have infected it the queen will return to the infected zerg to collect 1 energy from its parasite aswell as find out what the infected zerg did during his turn. The parasite can only infect one zerg at the time.
-The action Scout no longer makes you lose energy.

LOZ - Life Of a Zergling is starting!
"...aided by the forces of Jim Raynor the Protoss forces launched a final massive, fullscale attack against the Zerg Overmind.
However despite their efforts they were only able to destroy the Overmind's outer shell.
By this time both the Protoss and terran forces had suffered overwhelming casualties and the Ganthritor, Tassadars own flagship had been severely damaged by the Zerg.
Tassadar realizing that unless he acted now the overmind would survive and annihilate the rest of his people made one final decision.
Tassadar channeled the psionic energies from both the Void and the Khala into the hull of the Ganthritor and then crashed the carrier into the overmind. Tassadars final act crated an exposion that succeeded in destroying the nefarious Overmind and threw the invading zerg forces into disarray and chaos. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vs_qJf8xVfw&feature=related)
But the rampaging swarm would soon reduce the Protoss homeplanet Aiur to nothing but a smoldering ruin, making it somehow of a pyrrhic victory..."
The game has now offically started, everyone that have signed up will now have a message telling them this.
Every round will last for 48 hours so be quick and send in your actions.
Remember that the rules are in the beginning of this thread.

I just need the last actions and then I can end this round early. Remember if I get all the actions at once I will end the round much earlier.
So wait, if someone is hyrdalisk, and they vot e against a queen it still counts as .5 doesn't make much sense considering that hyrdalisks work jsut as well against the air as they do against the ground.

Round 1 Ends!
The surviving Zergs are acting crazy without the overmind to lead them attacking each other in the process.
There is only chaos as the small zergling Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins is trampled by his fellow Zergs.
But there are still other creatures then Zerg alive on Aiur, a lone surviving protoss Zealot is trying to escape the rampaging Zerg.
He is severely wounded and is a easy prey for the Zerg, if they can find him.
Summary
Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins a zergling was killed by his fellow zerg and his energy is retrieved by his murderers as they eat his body. I will PM the Players that killed him with how much energy they have gained. If you gathered energy this round you now have one additional energy.
This rounds event:
Zealot Hunt
There are 13 areas were the surviving Zealot can be in. Post in the game thread the area you want to search in blue. Every Zerg that searches the area he is hiding in will gain 1 additional energy at the beginning of the next round. This do not count as an action.
Example: I want to search area 5 for the surviving Zealot.
The following players did not use and action this round and are therefore in danger of being killed by surviving Protoss:

Please send your actions to me as fast as you can so this round can end early. Otherwise it will end in 48 hours.

Just to clarify the rules:
If you would mutate this round the effects of that transformation will not be added until the next turn.
So if you for example would mutate to an Mutalisk this round Zerglings, Ultralisks and Guardians vote still count as the same amount. The reducing effec is applied the round after you mutated into a Mutalisk (and every round after that).
Shadowcaller
2008-08-10, 12:01 PM
Your group of Zergs have found the cadaver of a dead Ultralisk, the energy feeding on it could give makes you fight among yourself once again.
Soon the Zergling Xykon_Fan is torn apart by the other Zergs that still continues to fight. The carcass is not big enough for all of you...
At the same time detrevnisisiht one of the Zerglings has become separated from the group and accidentally bumbs into a group of Protoss Zealots, he didin't survive long.
Summary
Xykon_Fan was killed and his energy is now in the hands of his slayers, they will be sent a PM about this.
detrevnisisiht was killed by a party of Zealots becuase he was not paying attention enough (auto-lynched).
Every player that have gathered energy now have 1 additional energy.
This rounds event
The Ultralisk Cadaver
Every player will vote in blue for the one they think should feast upon the cadaver. The player with the most votes will get the cadaver and gain 2 energy. If there is a tie between two players both those players will gain 1 energy. If there is a tie between 3 or more players all the energy in the cadaver will be lost.
You can't vote for yourself.

Argh. I thought the zealot hunt was just an event in between night phases.
Well, in any event, I'm going to use that as a reason why I should eat the cadaver. I'm almost assuredly the one with the least energy at this point, so voting for me won't accidentally give a player who's close to transforming an even bigger lead.

Round 3 Ends
The bloodthirsty zergs throw themselves on the Ultralisk cadaver and begins to devour it. Freshmeat_ and FF fanboy are the first ones to arrive and gets the the largest chunks of the cadaver. But some of the zergs seems to have lost themselves in hunger and don't see the difference between the dead Ultralisk and the Zergling Freshmeat_ so they quickly are beginning to devour him to, ripping his body into bloody pieces.
After their gruesome meal the zergs are gaining a strange sense of awareness of their surroundings, whatever was in that Ultralisk must have some kind of effect on their hive controlled brains.
Summary
Freshmeat_ and FF fanboy both gained 1 energy from the dead Ultralisk. Then Freshmeat_ was killed by the other Zergs that now have gained some of his energy (including the energy he gained from the Ultralisk).
This Rounds Event
Temporary Awareness
The zergs that until now have seen the rest of the world through a haze have now gained a temporary awareness of each other. They can use this to see how much energy, what type of zerg and what action used this round of one selected Zerg. This is done by voting in red.
The player with the most votes will be revealed to the other players, how much energy it have, what kind of zerg they are and what action they used during this round.

The votes for the "discovery" as you call it are made in the game thread like when you voted who should get the dead Ultralisk. The difference is that now this vote is for something negative (thus the votes are done in red). Normal actions are made as always by PM me.
So wait, did NO ONE get the Zealot?

The temporary awareness the zergs gained have quite predictable results, as soon the Zergs becomes aware of the Zergling bayar they attack him, killing him on the spot. The Defiler D_Lord don't seems to survive this temporary awareness either and suddenly collapses and quickly gets eating by the other zergs.
Summary

Round 11 have Ended, and so have the game!
After hours of fighting there are only three Zergs left in the small group, Reinholdht, Recaiden and Murska.
The hours of intensive fighting may have weakened them but they still have enough energy to end this.
Reinholdt a defiler strikes first, releasing a plague in the air bringing the Queen Recaiden crashing down on the ground.
But ironically Reinholdt's actions would indirectly lead to his own death as Recaiden was ensnaring Murska, a great guardian before his death.
Murska now free from the ensnare dives toward the only living being in sight, Reinholdt.
With a singel attack Murska ends Reinholdt's life leaving himself the only living being in the area.
Summary
Reinholth used Plague on Recaiden and reduced his energy down to 0 before Recaiden could use any action at all. Recaiden was about to use ensanre on Murska but died before he could use it so Murska free from any restrictions went down and killed Reinholdt.
Murska has won Life of a Zergling!

Yay! Finally!
Go diplomacy. I had like 1-3 energy for the last 6 rounds or so and since Reinholdt consumed Freshmeat the only really succesful attack in the game was the one I just won. :smallbiggrin:
Shadowcaller

Any comments on the game overall?
Shadowcaller
2008-08-23, 03:44 PM
Okay, my own thoughts of the game:
I think the game worked quite well but I think some of the Mutations need some balancing.
Observations
Not that many players could mutate before they died, I want to change that in the next version of the game.
Of the few players that mutated no one picked the ultralisk so I think its going to need some improvment to become more populare, it cost to much energy.
There was not a singel burrow action in the entire game and only a few scout actions at the end of it (to save energy). I would like to change that in the next version.
There were too few uses of energy for non-caster Mutations (like the hydralisk) they often piled up a mountain of energy before they got themself killed. in the next version there will be more uses of energy for them.
Mutalisks and guardians were quite populare among the few players that made it out of the zergling stage. they might be a bit too powerful but I don't think I'm going to change them thought.
Recaiden
2008-08-23, 03:45 PM
That was an interesting game, different strategies that could all have won. If reinholdt had attacked and killed Murska, he might have won.
Energy becomes much more important later in the game. I would play it again, or run it.

LOZ II have started recruiting already.
Changes have been made to hopefully improve the game play.
Two new mutation froms that everyone that have played SC know of and a lot of other cool stuff.
Here (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=88829) is the thread, now go there and join the zerging of my mail-box, its not like I use it for anything else:smalltongue:.
Reinholdt
2008-08-23, 10:06 PM
Actually, I had a real good chance at winning if the plague went off after your ensnare. Bad luck on the timing, though.
Murska
2008-08-23, 10:20 PM
Yeah, since I only had 1 energy and if you'd have Dark Swarmed, I'd have died. :smallwink:
Recaiden
2008-08-24, 08:32 AM
If he had killed Murska, what would have happened. If i got 1 last energy from the parasite, i would wait for a while and cast ensnare every turn. Let Reinholdt burn energy.
Murska
2008-08-24, 09:34 AM
Since AFAIK ensnare doesn't stop special abilities, he'd just have plagued you to death. On the other hand, if you'd have gotten 3rd energy from the parasite you'd just broodling him.
