Capture the Capital (CTC)

[Roser]

I am very impressed at the turnout this game. 18 people showed up, not to mention...

The glorious Tom Selleck's...




And a cameo by Luca Blight...




I'm glad everyone is having fun at CTC, so long as you all keep coming I will keep hosting!.





And on to Tonight's Action...

Teams were stacked at 9v9, the largest turnout CTC has had to so far.

Felix lead the Blood capital, and Moist von Lipwig the Mana Capital

Mana Capital started out with solid defense, they used Summoned Daemons as an excellent defense strategy. This is the first attempt at summoning daemons in a CTC game. It proved to be very useful.




Blood Capital possessed a zeal that could not be compromised early on. Despite the fact Mana had effective Daemon Defense, Blood managed to take the lead. Mana Capital was on the ropes...




Blood Capital holding their lead...




Mana Capital pull's a hidden card from their sleeve and uses the power of Stealth to bleed the Blood Capital dry, quashing whatever Zeal their enemies once had...




The final score was:

Blood Capital : 5352 Stones
Mana Capital : 6636 Stones

Thanks again all for coming out! And Special Thanks to Plague for donating to the cause!

Game #6 Will begin today after the scheduled auto 1v1!!

Join Channel #CTC to keep up to date.

Look for another announcement to gather at Chaos Shrine.

There is a New Rule: Logging out/in for a "quick exit" out of the towers will warrant a 5 minute penalty.

I wonder if teleporting from the roof should be disallowed, I think it gives an advantage to Mana Capital since it provides them a very quick escape of Blood's tower. When Blood are siegeing we have to teleport off the back of the tower and are likely to run into more opponents while returning the ore. My 2c

Casting off the roof should be disallowed as should login off with ore

[Roser]

Felix see the new rule.

nightshark check this picture out. Teleporting from towers is quite even you just have to it the right spot.

On behalf of Star Fleet, I would like to thank you for allowing us to take part in this exciting sosarian sport. We hope that you will continue to run these matches in the future so that we may better gather data from which to compile a holodeck simulation program. It will bring much joy to the crew, to have a few new holodeck games to play in deep space. Worf's battle simulation is becoming a bit stale
