@RX14 and I have been playing some Worms Armageddon recently, and we'd like some more people to join us :3 For those who don't know what Worms is, it's a turn-based (strategy?) game that involves killing the other teams' worms with various weapons. You can get it from steam, though multiplayer works fine from other sources, as long as you get version 3.7.2.1. It seems to run ok in Wine as well. [spoiler] [/spoiler] Games are currently running from 1800UTC on Saturdays pretty much whenever people are available. Room: #AnythingGoes Game name: lewd Password: reu Mumble: maciozo.com Also, for those running on Windows, I would recommend: https://www.tus-wa.com/forums/worms-arma...ort-19063/ (Proper D3D9 and multimonitor support) http://worms2d.info/SuperFrontendHD (Frontend game menu will now fill the monitor, and be higher quality)

I've played a game similar to it before so I know the gist of it. I'll see if I can get a copy since it's a pretty fun time.

I got it to work on linux so if you need help just PM me.

I'm all good to go now and I don't have anything planned for the next few days so I'm fine whenever. I run on Mountain Standard Time if that's any help in trying to coordinate.

uughh. i wish this thread existed before i recently cleaned my pc. arrrrrrgg kill me

Alright, I guess at the moment, it's mostly down to when is most convenient for @"All in One". https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meetingtime.html?iso=20170606&p2=197&p3=37&p4=136 Would somewhere between 1700 and 2000 UTC be ok? ⌬⌬⌬ wrote: uughh. i wish this thread existed before i recently cleaned my pc. arrrrrrgg kill me Oh, why can't you play it now then?

Alright, so I'll just say for now that this'll happen at 1700UTC on Saturday, and unless anyone's specifically against it, we'll use @RX14's Mumble server if anyone wants to voice chat. Would this be ok?

Anyone up for some Worms Armageddon?

I have my upcoming weekend's next sortie setup down below. You will face a close pair of light torpedo cruiser worms Kitakami with Ooi and a lone destroyer worm Yuudachi. If less than full capacity, watch out for the Kumano sisters (CAV), they're modified heavy aviation cruiser worms. Yuudachi will not be present if the latter occurs.

Be warned, if you sink Kitakami but leave Ooi alive, she will seek revenge on whoever's team that dealt the killing blow, as she's a yandere.

Advantages:
+Firepower (Suzuya and Kumano can use big weapons)
+Damage resistance (if Suzuya and Kumano is present)
+Evasion (if Yuudachi is present)
+Air support surplus (except Yuudachi)
+Only Yuudachi can do bungee, ninja roping, and jetpack
Disadvantages:
-Only Yuudachi lacks range
-Line of sight is questionably low
-Moderate resource consumption
-Luck
-Ooi will go berserk mode if Kitakami is sunk

Thanks for playing, everyone!

Next sortie setup to encounter for December 9th contains an armored aircraft carrier worm Taihou, and two light cruiser worms Noshiro and Yuubari.

In case things start to get too dire for the initial three, you'll face a mixed support group: Amatsukaze, Kagerou, Yura, Takao (the one from Arpeggio of Blue Steel), and Tone.

Advantages:
+Firepower (Takao and Tone able to use big weapons)
+Opening airstrike phase advantage at start of battle (Taihou and Tone, if she's present)
+Opening shelling phase advantage at start of battle (Takao and Tone)
+Opening and closing torpedo phase advantage (Amatsukaze, Kagerou, Noshiro, and Yuubari)
+Damage resistance (Takao and Tone)
+Evasion (Amatsukaze and Kagerou)
+Line of Sight (Takao and Tone)
+Movement Speed (Amatsukaze and Kagerou)
+Able to call for airstrikes past moderate damage (Taihou only)
+Air support surplus, can initiate opening air strike phase at start of battle (Taihou and Tone only)

Disadvantages:
-High resource consumption
-Luck
-Hit/miss ratio for shelling is low (Takao and Tone)
-If Taihou's HP reaches less than 30 (critical damage), she will not call in air strikes
-If Tone's HP reaches less than 75 (moderate damage), she will not call in air strikes

Just a heads-up: I've got a bunch of major projects bearing down on me, so I'm likely gonna have to duck out this Saturday. I'll definitely be around next week though! ^^

I have an exam this time on Saturday so unfortunately I'll have to miss as well.

An exam on a weekend? That sucks :S

But I have a lot of coursework to do as well, so I think I'll have to cancel for this week 🙁

Two-hour window incoming, I am here.

I assume Backlash is declared M.I.A. due to holidays break in advance, so he may not be coming.

Might not be here on saturday, we'll see when it comes to it. I'm away from home with only my laptop so we'll see how it goes.

I have a snow day around my area, but that won't stop me. I have to get my team ready and prepped up within 2 hours.

malmon

Moved it to 1800. See you guys in 2 hours!

I got a movie to catch, so I'll have to sit this one out. Have fun!
