SAI-40 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 (edited) CRIME AND JUSTICE A CITY AT WAR Alright guys, I'm going to be testing a game of my own design with you all, something I've been slowly putting together during lulls at work. The game might seem a little complicated at first, but I assure you it's all very simple.You can read the full rules right here. It seems like a lot, but I promise that it's a very easy read. The game is called Crime and Justice, and it's basically a very involved version of cops and robbers, where the only goal in the game is to be the guy with the most money at the end. No one is safe from getting stabbed in the back, no one is secure.You have two "sides", The Law and The Underground. The Law consists of The Police, The Detective, The Bounty Hunter, and The Judge. Their goal is to take down The Underworld, which consists of The Kingpin, The Mobsters, and The Hit Man. In the middle, the citizens, business owners, and anyone else you could imagine.The game is built to have as little restrictions as possible as the how you play your character. For instance, The Detective can work his hardest to bring down The Undeworld--or he can give in to the bribes and work his hardest to pin false crimes on other people. You are free to play as you see fit, and you will suffer the consequences for it.This first "Round" will be a shortened version--probably only about five to ten pages, depending. I need to work out some balance issues, but I wont' know how to fix those until I've tried the game at least once. If you're interested, send me a private message with the following: Name:Age:Hair Color:Eye Color:Clothes Color: (Just one color, it's for game purposes)Height: (Nothing exact, just "Tall, Medium, or Short")Weight: (Nothing exact, just "Skinny, Average, or Fat")Desired Role: After I've received a few, I'll post the characters with all of the information except for their Role.If you have ANY questions or concerns, please let me know below, and I'll answer them as quickly as possible. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ANNOUCEMENTS~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 11/20/2014 7:27 PMWe're going to get started soon! All of your characters will start the game with $1000 dollars. You can save this until the game starts, or you can spend it to build your character or business before the start of the game. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The LawThe Detective: TakenPolice Officer: (Open)Police Officer: (Open)Bounty Hunter: TakenJudge: TakenThe UndergroundThe Kingpin: TakenMobster: TakenMobster: TakenHitman: TakenCitizenshipCitizen: FilledCitizen: Always open, we can't have too many citizens.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~CITIZEN DIRECTORYName: Jeffrey JacksonAge: 37Hair Color: BrownEye Color: GreenClothes Color: MaroonHeight: ShortWeight: StoutPlayer: The Captain NaoName:Frank TihhamAge:27Hair Color:BlackEye Color:BlueClothes Color: Dark RedHeight: MediumWeight: AveragePlayer: DoomName: Dominic RushAge: 35Hair Colour: BrownEye Colour: BlueCloths Colour: RedHeight: TallWeight: MediumPlayer: VincentName: Mike MaloneAge: 28Hair Color: BrownEye Color: BrownClothes Color: BlackHeight: MediumWeight: AveragePlayer: Micheal MaloneName: Warren KnoxAge: 27Hair Color:light brownEye Color: blueClothes Color: blackHeight: TallWeight: AveragePlayer: XenodolfName: Lucky SantangeloAge: 21Hair Color: BlackEye Color: BlackClothes Color: BrownHeight: MediumWeight: AveragePlayer: LuckynakoName: Gary K.

Administrators Alex Posted November 20, 2014 Administrators Share Posted November 20, 2014 This looks interesting. I assume this is some sort of offshoot from the Mafia game? Quote Is there a bug?

naTia Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 In the idea of roles, yes, but in terms of gameplay, definitely not. Unlike Mafia, there are no set teams. Every man is out there to gain the most money by the end. Any working together is usually going to be for some benefit. Also, you cannot die (technically), because you can get an infinite amount of new characters (technically). 1 Quote Resident DJ @ Club Orbis Founder of The Warehouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, you cannot die (technically), because you can get an infinite amount of new characters (technically). What he said. It's definitely inspired by Mafia, and it's got it's similarities, but the major difference between the two is that the main goal of the game isn't to win by rooting out all the criminals--since anyone can technically be one and there is an unlimited number of chances for players to become one--but by playing everyone else so well that you end up on top with the most money.

Vincent Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 (edited) The best part is the player don't actually know each others role, so at the early stage they might even struggle to find out who is whom and what are they trying to do. Element of suspense is there Edited November 20, 2014 by Vincent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAI-40 Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 (edited) Alright guys, as soon as we get a Police Officer we'll go ahead and kick the game off. This thread will serve as the permanent OOC. I'll go ahead and start us with two NPC businesses and a few NPC civilians as well, just so there are plenty of options for your "activities". I'll put this up in the main message too, but your characters all start with $1000 dollars to spend on your character's skills before the first day starts. If you'd like to start your business before the game starts, feel free! Edited November 21, 2014 by SAI-40 Quote "They're turning kids into slaves just to make cheaper sneakers.

SAI-40 Posted November 22, 2014 Author Share Posted November 22, 2014 QUICK UPDATE Since I just realized that not having a daily income puts you at a serious disadvantage, the Bounty Hunter and Hitman will now make 200 dollars daily, plus whatever they get on bounties, and citizens will have a $100 daily income, plus whatever schenangigans they get up to.

SAI-40 Posted November 23, 2014 Author Share Posted November 23, 2014 Sorry about the lack of an update last night guys, I ended up spending the night dealing with a load of stupid shit. Day three will be starting here in a few, and you'll have a bit of extra time to get things done. Probably update again 2am Tuesday Morning so you can all get stuff in.

naTia Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I know you guys are just RP'ing a lack of police, but due to nobody signed up we have to assume that the police are there, but aren't doing a good job to keep the town secure. Based on the news updates we know that there are police, but they are all presumably defunct NPC's.
