RS Card Game

Game

• Plays like Munchkins: fairly simple CCG rules (see explanation of rules, or official rules pdf)

The only difference is that helping someone will always gain you 1 level.

Fleets

Classes, essentially.

• RF - Can hold an extra card; but is hard to leave, -1 to run away.
• ABG - Gains an extra level when fighting alone, but you cannot be promoted past General.
• IBG - You will win ties
• RgF - Gains an extra level when fighting with someone,
• PBF - Immune to curses, but can hold two less cards than normal
• AF - Your ability to make up abilities for yourself increases your combat level by 4, but promotions are much harder to come by, and you earn 1 less per victory.
• VF - Constant combat increases your combat level +1, but too much time spent fighting has decreased your ability to run away -1.
• Dual membership

Levels

Ranks, essentially. You will win when you are promoted to Fleet Admiral, level 17.

• Admirals (14-17): May only gain one rank at a time, but may ask any one player to assist with combat, and he or she must comply.
• Generals (10-13):
• Colonels (8-9)
• Commanders (6-7)
• Majors (5)
• Captains (4)
• Lieutenants (1-3)

Curses

• SPYING FOR THE EH OMGZ (lose 2 ranks) You were caught spying for the Emperor's Hammer, releasing our most closely-kept secrets, such as the real nature of Sair's Hat. Shame on you!
• Nuke Ronin (lose 1 rank)
• Rocking Chair (lose your fleet) The chair addles your mind and forces you to leave any fleets you are in.
• Corran Syndrome (lose your fleet) You have a new fleet CO. Within moments, your fleet vanishes.
• World of Warcraft (lose one small item) The horribly addicting game makes you lose track of one of your items.
• FTP error (lose all your items) You accidentally upload something to the wrong FTP directory and subsequently break the entire site you were working on.
• Shikkie's Cadet Disaster - All players lose their rank (down to Lt j.g.), unless they were active in a fleet, to confirm their rank.
• Double-edged Recognition of Rahj (gain 1 rank, but then you die) You are promoted for your work, but then it is discovered that your work is all LIES!
• Fleet Downgraded to Wing Status (you lose your fleet affiliation and gain an RF card) Your fleet has been downgraded to a division in the RF. Oops!
• Cyber with Mirei (lose one item and one level, all self-respect)
• Curse of Jack (You must give one of your treasures to the highest ranked player) Just as Jack gave away Minos...
• Promotion to Sector Admiral (Nothing happens) Sorry, that rank has been discontinued, plz play again!
