You gotta wait until at least two people post their turns before you can declare. Take some time to actually learn PW please.

On the off chance any new people join I'm going to post some general rules as I have found them, as I felt somewhat the same.

1. Declare: This means you are posting your turn. When one declares, it is considered common courtesy to post ones turn within one to two hours of stating.

2. Usually Bullets Do Not move in real time. Aka: no insta-sniper kills from a-cross the map. Localized Bullet time.

3. Don't attack someone consecutively multiple times, without allowing them to respond to said attacks.

4. Generally there are it seems, many unspoken rules. Best known as "Do to other players what you'd want them to do to you" type stuff. Don't be a jerk. Simple stuff like that makes all the matches I looked at much more enjoyable and equals a-lot less strife.

Hopefully this helps newbies, Lizard, Metal, Lead, or whoever else can correct me if I'm wrong anywhere.

Rule 0: You are not here to win. You are here to tell an interesting story. One team winning all the time while magically dodging every bullet and shrugging off explosions like rainwater is not an interesting story.

Declare.

Edit: Actually, declaring until tomorrow due to it being 10:00 PM here. If that isn't allowed (doubt it is, I read the rules for this topic and understand now) then just ignore this post k

EDIT2:

There are some rules of gentlemannery however:
-Thou shalth not touch thee projectiles of ye olde opponent unless ye have ye permission.
-Thou shalth not be overpowered (like a human solider soaking up hundreds of bullets).
-Thou shalth not steal (Stealing other people's armies is bad, mkay? When you have permission, it's called borrowing anyways).
-In games without a set turn order, declaring is a common custom, when you declare,
you're essentially saying you're taking next turn. After declaring wait for two people to post turns, then you can have a go again.

Proof that I can declare until tomorrow.
anyways
Night, guys.

EDIT: Declare: as I'm not waiting twelve hours for him to be told off by Lizard.

The Drone above or "Charlie" ,as he is known, whistles a merry marching tune as he walks among the trees on top of this "island", while reminiscing of a time long ago.

Meanwhile down below, The captain reaches into his storage pack and places his Epaulets on his shoulders wondering how exactly they got into his backpack anyway?

The captain and his compatriot drone then open their equipment boxes and begin the process of leveling ground for construction.

Question if you use one troop for lets say a scouting party and have no other units on the map, and the 1 unit dies will you be able to spawn other troops due to the "missing" unit?

I just want to know so i can set up a strategy or something....... Like not being perma lost from losing a scout unit which is only unit i have on the map.

Is it normal that I want to punch Warguy in the ♥♥♥♥?

Also, yeah, just it'd be better if your scouting unit put down some teleporter or something. Also, he probably won't die unless you antagonize someone else.

Eh it is common to want to injure Warguy when it comes to role playing. [Paranoia was enough proof of that]

Oh yeah, and dickassery like shooting three grenades about 350px in your turn, and instakilling people op. REMEMBER THAT!

Hey Guys,
want a new game mechanic?

I want to suggest here the idea of introducing a forest fire, which every player advances on their turn and damages all non-fireproof units.
Kind of like this:

Or this:

Or this:

I kinda feel like joining again, but I know in my heart of hearts that I'm too busy.
(plus I want a new army)

You are going to want an experienced player and only that player to advance the fire. Elsewise you will get inconsistency and the fire spreading in suspiciously advantageous ways.

In support of Allstone's point, almost all of you are pretty average at smoke and flames, too O_o Though some practice couldn't hurt, I think it'd just slow the game down quite a lot.

That'd be pretty boring and not add anything to it really.
Plus the trees are way too far apart for em to light eachother on fire.
