> Actually, I think it would be rather cool to be able to challenge someone to a game of chess in the game. > For example: > MasterLeader tells Emperor: I challenge you to a duel of wits. > Emperor to Masterleader: What are the stakes? > MasterLeader to Emperor: Defeat me in the eternal game of Chess and I will teach your arcane sect the power to brew potions. > Emperor to MasterLeader: And though of course I will not lose, what do you want from me if you should win? > MasterLeader to Emperor: When your king has fallen, you will have your arcane subjects show us the trick to ordering our minds. > etc, etc, etc. > Obviously these stakes are in jest, but the idea is good. I'd love to see the intellectual chars face off in strategy, etc. And there can be wagers and side bets, all sorts of things. And it would be a non-pk way to increase rp. > > I've played muds with connect-4, blackjack, even chess. CF would benefit from these, give people a reason to go to the Inn and stuff... or anyhow, it'd just be really cool. And we have a way bigger playerbase than those muds, so we should have way cooler things like that :P > > I know, coding time, coding time..
> Hell, you can have people who lose on purpose, because they play low-int chars. Some cloud giant warrior moves his knight five paces forward and smashes it into your rook. :P
