Halo

[pyronut]

I just panned out the rules today and I am extremely open to suggestions

7-10 Marines = Vet/noob/moderately experienced players = 1 hit
1 Spartan = Vet =7 hits five shots to tear down shield, two to kill, shields recharge after 30 seconds damage taken while shields are down is retained
1 Elite = same as Spartan
≈ 5 grunts = noobs = 1 hit
≈ 4 Jackals = Moderately experienced players = 1hit but has arm shield (maybe 3 ply cardboard so that concentrated fire will cut through)

Force on force in the woods

Any weapon works but try to standardize it for the different teams (similar fps and range)

Human team starts scattered but has communications and can regroup
Team sizes can increase but there is always only one Spartan
There can be more than one elite but only up to 2 in one area.

It sounds like it could be a good idea, but something makes me think that after a while it'd be fun for the Spartan/Elites but not so much for the lower level guys.

[pyronut]

Yeah i was thinking about that maby more hits for lower levels

[berkelsk]

What about an unlimited respawn for lower level guys (but give it a time limit, so say 1-3 minutes after reasching the respawn point) and a limited respawn for the Spartan/Elites. Since there are is the possibility for there being more than one Elite an even more limited respawn limit for them (of course this could be changed depending on the people there).

Also is this just a kill the other team or is there some objective? I don't know about other people but I like games where I have an objective, whether defensive or offensive, I'm not the type that likes to just run around shooting wildly.

Perhaps since there is a Halo theme a mission based (very loosely of course) on a mission from the game?

sounds like a good gametype. But could be a little confusing when playing. try making the spartans more simple. Just an opinion
