• interbbs gaming strategy

    From ryan@77:1/128 to All on Sat Jul 6 10:06:50 2019
    Hey dudes,

    First off - posting in the retro gaming sub, hope this is the right one :P

    I'm stoked Netsurge recently turned interbbs gaming back on. So far I have interlord, BRE, and Clans connected. I'd like to start a thread to discuss strategy :)

    InterLord - My basic idea here is to level up, buy weapons/armor commensurate with my level, and do some interbbs fighting in the interlord "other places" area. How does one win this game? Is it like a tournament?

    BRE - I've never really figured this game out. I'm actually reading about it now. Some of these strategy games have always been a bit tough for me to wrap my head around. The button-mashing RPGs have always been more my speed. But,
    if there's anyone out there "good" at these types of games, what's a good strategy here? What is considered a victory here?

    Clans - This game is tough. I have to pay much closer attention to what's happening (vs LORD, for example). My clan has two tanks, a healer, and a sorcerer, and some Knight that just joined me. I think appropriate strategy here is using your clan to bolster your village. Build new structures in the town via the town hall. Use all of that to build up your empire. Am I missing anything here? Again, what is winning criteria?

    Thanks dudes!

    I'm open to what the group wants to see happen, I am easy that way. Currently the game is set to reset at the 1st of every month and usually the warrior
    with the most kills wins. If you have been keeping up with the scinet gaming echo, there currently is one allowed IGM that brother Batts has offered to
    give us all keys for, I suggest you add it.

    I am also open to additional IGMS, I am just not sure which other to add.
    Open to suggestions.

    BRE - I've never really figured this game out. I'm actually reading
    about it now. Some of these strategy games have always been a bit tough for me to wrap my head around. The button-mashing RPGs have always been more my speed. But, if there's anyone out there "good" at these types of games, what's a good strategy here? What is considered a victory here?

    Again, it is reset the 1st of the month, winner is whoever has the highest score. This game is all about strategy. There are lots of guide online as to what constitutes a good strategy. This is one of my favorite games and I play
    a lot of it.

    Clans - This game is tough. I have to pay much closer attention to what's happening (vs LORD, for example). My clan has two tanks, a healer, and a sorcerer, and some Knight that just joined me. I think appropriate strategy here is using your clan to bolster your village. Build new structures in the town via the town hall. Use all of that to build up
    your empire. Am I missing anything here? Again, what is winning criteria?

    This is a traditional RPG with a side of strategy. The interbbs component is unlike any other game. You are allowed to travel to other BBSes to continue your campaign. Personally a great idea.

    "V"iew your stats, and hit "I" for Inventory. Then select "E" for equip, pick the piece of equipment, and assign it to the right person :)
