[LVS] Rocket Wars
Posted: Sat May 02, 2020 7:44 pm
We're going to be having a game of Rocket Wars on LVS on Wednesday May 20th, 2020, at 7:00 PM BST. If you'd like to come, please reply to this thread below, so we know how much food and how many crossbows to bring. We'll be making enough rockets hopefully for this event, as well as future events, so we can host more of these in the future!
Rocket wars is an event where you quite simply try to PvP with firework rockets and crossbows. To utilize crossbows in this way, you must place the firework rocket(s) in your off hand, and load the crossbow with the rocket that way. Then, you fire the rocket - which has a fairly straight trajectory - into opponents to try to create some glorious murder. Two shots and you're dead!
This event will consist of five rounds of gameplay. The rules are simple: Gear up at spawn, then go into the nether, and when it's time to start, try to murder everyone you see! There will be a short grace period between the time players enter the nether, and when the round officially starts. If you die, you're out of that round! The last man alive in the nether hub is deemed the winner of that round, and will be given a stack of gold blocks. You can even win multiple rounds! Don't worry, for attending the event you will receive a stack of gold ingots too!
I'd like to hear your thoughts and opinions on this event, as we figure out some more details. Would you like to see armor in chests here and there, would multi-shot or quick charge crossbows sound good to you? Do you want to be able to regen with food? We can make each round slightly different, with different crossbows and different food sources - just please let me know what you think. Currently the plan is to use default crossbows, a very weak food source (carrots, fish? TBD), and no armor for every round.
