Re: New PBW Game - Furball V: Pinball
 

I wonder how the game decides whose mines get detted first in a combined minefield... Would suck to be the player in an alliance who always got his mines blown up first whenever enemies came by and thus had to build more mines to maintain the field... especially so in this game! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Of course, that player could always beg the others in the alliance to build loaded mine layers and gift them to him, in order to save on build time...

would mines destroy mines?

Don't mines only detonate when moving into a sector (i.e., not events or random movement)?

So, once people start throwing some mines around, the Magic Sector will become fatal for anyone moving into it during Movement but before Random Movement. But once a Ship, Base, or Unit is in the Magic Sector due to Random Movement it is safe from the Mines.

As if this game wasn't going to be odd enough already.

Get in the game! We need more monkeys!
