Battle of the Prestiged

[FlyingSquirrel]

Ahh... Yea, Shivala probably can't come, then. Currently, she's going to Eastern Plaguelands to get something for a friend.

[McKnighter]

Redis will come.

However, I echo Astus' question about what undead we can bring and how many. Redis is totally bringing Lilian along.

[Wuvvums]

We'll probably make a special rule, like either the undead or the master have less HP, and neither get roll bonuses since they get two attacks per round.

Or you can get roll bonuses but alternate each round between attacking with the master and the undead.

[Aphetoros]

When we bring up our minions we moreso mean how many of them we can bring to roll on their own. Technically we specialize in our zombies.

[Wuvvums]

How about two minions each?

You and Redis can have a pokemon battle.

[Miah]

How about they can have as many minions as they have health. Say, they have 5 health. They could have 4 1hp minions, and just use them to attack in order.

[Aphetoros]

So five health = 4 minions??

And what do you mean by they attack in ordeR?

[muhaha8]

All minions having only one health, though, seems odd. Some minions would be weak physically *cough Arken cough*, and would thus be easy to kill. Others? Not as easy to kill. Or... Unkill... Whatever.

[Wuvvums]

I was thinking that the necromancers battle each other and have an equal number of minions.

Then to even it out the lasting necromancer can fight Railey on her giant robot.

That's if you guys are fine with that.

[Miah]

Well, you could have 4 1 health minions, or 2 2 health minions, or one 4 health minion, yourself being a one hit. Though the opposite player would have to get through whatever minions you play to get to you. And you could not attack with more than one minion per turn, so as not to give you 5 attacks per 1 of the person your fighting.
Add in whatever bonusses you deem appropriate (For example, a life bonus would mean more minions rather than more actual health) or a increase in rolls for minions, and voilla, minioney prestige.

[Aphetoros]

So basically by using my own health I get to have minions? :l

[Miah]

Yeah. But you, as a weak clothie, can't be hit untill they get through your horde of undead beasties.

[muhaha8]

Except... Even a wimpy clothie squishy isn't a 1-hitter-quitter.

[FlyingSquirrel]

Matters the hit. If you get whammed in the chest by a Bonecrusher, you'll be out.

[Harmonic]

It'd be so awesome if these were all trust fights.

But anyhow, I'm gonna play devil's advocate here. How would this bet determined ICly? I mean, what defines a prestige class? Are they more powerful than normal classes? I've always been of the opinion that... not for the most part. Just like normal classes, they have their merits and flaws.

So, basically what I'm getting at, what's barring let's say, a warrior from joining other than OCC rules? And saying a warrior couldn't win doesn't cut it, they most certainly could. As well as any other class.
