CityNESI: City of the Dead

City NES I: City of the Dead

STORY:
Marina City, home to the world’s brightest. Or that’s at least what it has formerly been known as. GeneCo’s research has unleashed zombies upon the city. Six factions are now at odds to survive, or thrive during this outbreak.

ECONOMY:
Economy is represented through Influence. You gain influence by controlling territories. Influence can also be raised by completing your goals. Certain places labeled on the map give you an influence boost. You can not bank influence.

To take control of a territory you just need to move a force there. Moving through one will not make it yours. Moving a force out of a territory under your control will not hinder it’s allegiance to you.

MILITARY: It costs 4 influence to create a new force. You may only have up to 9.

(A)Attack = Chance of gaining a hit when attacking (1/6)
(D)Defense = Chance of gaining a hit when defending (1/6)
HP = how many hits it can take.

Human: You need to recruit people, and give them weapons.

MOVEMENT: Human factions are free to move any amount of spaces, as long as they’re white spaces. For example a human force can move from Santa Maria Island to Yellow island in one turn, a long as there are white spaces available to the path. This is due to human ability to use vehicles. Some special territories allow instant movement.
Non-Humans can only move 1 white space a turn.

Movement is infinite in your own territory no matter.

Here's the map.

Day 1 of Outbreak:

I shall take the National Guard!

Zombies for me

It looks like all of these Zombie names are from TimeSplitters games...I will take Survivors. This looks like a cool idea.

You should notice a few of the islands do too

Peabody??? I remember that mission in single-player arcade mode in TS2 where a bunch of Dr. Peabodys were attacked by Splitters and Special Ops guys...I got a platinum, one of my very few.

So are Guard, Survivor, Police, and merc units all in a "locked alliance"?

mutants fo me

no. No one is allied to anyone, but you can sign alliances if you want.

I take it you haven't played TS3 theres also also Cortez(was also in TS2. main character), Lancet(a new doctor along with peabody) and Crow (main badguy)

No, parents only let me get one video game every 2 months, and I got the Doom 3 expansion pack. Sgt. Cortez is cool, but I always liked R-109 better. Since Hart got shot at the end of TS2, who's Cortez's new partner?

Anya, although she's not rally a "partner." I didn't like the new R-110 at first, but now i think he's cooler than R-109. The only thing that bugs me is the new Gretel. The mk 2 was waay better.

Anyway no more spam. If you write a 2 paragraph story then I'll let you spam at the bottom of it.

I want mercenaries~

Hehe looks interesting might join a bit later .

well all thats left is police for anyone.

To: National Guard, Police, Mercenaries
From: Survivors

Help us stop the horrific tide of monsters that threaten our homes! We won't attack you if you don't attack us...(in other words, an NAP)

Warman, what factions go with each color on the map?

i call polize!

Green: Army
BLue: Police
Light Grey: Mutants
Dark Grey: Zombies
Pink: Survivors
Magenta: Mercenaries


Updates will come as soon as I get all orders. It shouldn't take that long people

I need responses to my alliances...

Oh noes,no faction for me

To the Survivors:
From the National Guard:

We agree. We will be willng to even sign an alliance to defeat the evil menace.
