Re: New PBW Game - Furball V: Pinball
Aah... Actually, how would that work?
If I have ten planets, and launch one hundred mines from each one in the same turn, then the sector that everything gets pulled to will have one thousand of my mines and God knows how many of everyone else's...
Can you test that one on your magic map there, Puke?

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! 
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...

Re: New PBW Game - Furball V: Pinball
Don't mines only detonate when moving into a sector (i.e., not events or random movement)?

Re: New PBW Game - Furball V: Pinball
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!
