Have you ever wanted to make a forum game but didn't know if anybody would join? Do you have an idea for a forum game, but want to play it instead of host it? No longer! This is a thread where we can plan our forum games and share ideas with other users. People will help other people to make forum games that they think people will like, so that you don't have to do all that thinking by yourself. With this thread, you'll never have a bad game again! Simply fill out a sheet to start!

Game Host Sheet:

UsernameUsername here)
Preferred Game TypeFantasy, Sci-fi, Survival, ect.)
Games HostedNumber of games here)
Games HostingNames of games you are currently hosting)

Forum Game Players don't need a sheet, since they have no experience in hosting.

Here's an example of what we do here in the FGCT:

User 1: OK, here's the sheet for my survival game:
Name:
Gender:
HP:100/100
Inventory:

User 2: Maybe you could add an Age section. Also Hunger and Thirst, since it's a survival game.
Name:
Age:
Gender:
Inventory:
HP:100/100
Hunger:100/100
Thirst:100/100


Things like that.

So, I will start it off.

I want somebody to recreate a thread that died a long time ago, and the original host has left the site. It's a military-based game. Here it is:

In this game, you are a member of the American Army.
This game is called IED because as someone in a demolition group, your job is to Infiltrate-Eliminate-Demolish.
Char Sheet:
Name:
Callsign:
Class:
Squad: (ie. Alpha, Bravo... Zulu; I'll assign it, but tell me whose team you want to be on so that I can put people together)
Main Weapon:
Secondary Weapon:
Equipment:
Callsigns can be anything you want, but they usually refer to your job (ie. a medic could be "Doc"[stupid example, I know])
Classes Weapons and Equipment are:
Class- Infantry
Main- HK XM8, HK416
Secondary- Beretta M9
Equipment- Fragmentation Grenades (x2), Smoke Grenade, Stun Grenade, Med Kit
Class- Grenadier
Main- HK XM25 IAWS
Secondary- Beretta M9, MP9
Equipment- Fragmentation Grenades (x2), M18 Claymore, Med Kit
Class- Demolitions
Main- M32 MGL
Secondary- MP9 (Raytheon FIM-92 Stinger & AT4-CS on special missions )
Equipment- M18 Claymores (x4), Fragmentation Grenades (x2)
Class- Sniper
Main- Barrett M107, M110 SAAS
Secondary- Beretta M9
Equipment- M18 Claymore, Smoke Grenade
Class- Support
Main- M249 SAW
Secondary- Beretta M9
Equipment- Med Kits (x5), Frag Grenades (x2), Smoke Grenade
--------------------------------------
If you want to know more about what weapons you are using, you can google them, or go to militaryfactory.

It's in modern times, obviously. The host has to know military terms such as "sitrep". They also have to know how to talk on a radio(Saying "Over", "Copy", "Over and Out", that kind of thing). It's multiplayer, so players are all put together in the same mission and work together to complete their objective, which is given by the host. Most importantly, the missions and situations must be realistic. You can't have 500 suicide bombers blow a building to pieces. The player can't die, but they will get less advantages in the next mission if they run and try to destroy a tank with a pistol. If you need any more information about it, just ask me.

Let the editing BEGIN!

Perhaps this is the right thread for my tower defense game, currently in beta but I will help before I post it here, deal?

Rebel Country sounds like Risk. I'd be willing to help with that. The map should stay small, perhaps a county where the cities fight or something (or the game may take forever to play a single round).

Dragons, Blood, and Decapitation (link plz?) sounds humorous, but on point. You could edit it enough to make it yours, like keep the medieval times theme, completely (like the fair), which is a great idea. "What, I can't leave until I buy something? Turkey leg! Nom nom nom." I don't think the races really fit in that well (overplayed), though. Turn those into stat items, like elf ears, that you can buy from a vendor. They worked well in Ragnarok Online private servers. If you want to keep it debased and medieval, however, try to reduce playable races due to level of stupidity of those races (or let a player choose those races and give them a game over "King Stupid hired you with peanuts" or something.)

Tower Defense [Beta] is a bit too complicated right now, but I want to keep everything (perhaps a better way to explain things). Basically the Troll Horde is trying to take over the Forum Games Forum. Anyone is allowed to post, and they post as the defense round or the attack round (which completes a wave). The attack round always determines the winner. However, balance could be an issue (sort of like tic tac toe has balance issues). What do y'all think?
