OH BTW I forgot to mention most BWS have an "advantage" "Disadvantage" list based on points for example:

1 Point disadvantage is something small like "smells bad"
increasing in scale as the weakness grows, you MUST HAVE a counter balance of + and -

For example if you have 20 points worth of advantage yo have to have 21 points of disadvantage.

I'd be interested, depending on what type of Boardwar you have in mind. I've got a smidgen of ability when it comes to writing sci-fi, but I'm quite rubish in the fantasy department.

Sounds like the old cartoon violence wars we had in the Cantina. Ahh, those were the days... red-hot poker cannons, maelevolent vegetable Gods, battlemoon duels, killer mongoose hordes, giant mutated monster squid, Barry the T-Rex...

*snif*

SO finally trying to start one, eh? Don;t worry about his "Soveraaign Power" class super dreadnaught anyways, my Corim forces could take him...(looks around quickly and reactivates ships cloaking shield.)

But anyways, I'd be interested. (Hmmm, wonder what you'd do if I said no .)

So rules-wise you're basically talking something along the lines of "The d20 SRD starting at ECL 15 (105,000 exp); base stats must average 10, but full retroactive modifiers apply (thus, in addition to the average of 10 for base, you have an additional 5 points to distribute from "leveling up" through your initial 15 levels ... if you don't use a template that deplets your class level any). You can roll any numers you like, but if your average for a particular die-type diverges too much from the expected average for that die type, the Game Master will apply a penalty. Magic items may be pre-purchased at an EXP cost equal to twice that of the EXP cost to create the item in-game if you do not meet the item's pre-requisites, or equal to the EXP cost to create the item in-game if you do meet the item's pre-requisites," correct?
