Has anyone ever played the game of Bombard!? It's a really fun game! At least, for me, anyway. ohyeah.gif If you're wondering what Bombard! is, I took a look at the rules, and it's essentially Battleship recreated in MUD form - place ships, call out coordinates to shoot at, watch stuff go boom (or not). What can I say, I used to love Battleship as a kid, and I still think it's fun when in a MUD like Lusternia.

I only know of the Bombard! board in Celest - it's on the second floor of the Syrinx Hotel, southernmost part. I don't know where the other Bombard! boards are, but if you like Battleship I highly recommend playing it.

That said, who else here has played Bombard!? I want to know fellow players so I can play it with them! sailor.gif

I played a few types with Emar, but mostly played chess with him with his own chess board.

I sometimes play when I can kidnap someone

I play it sometimes, if I can find players.

I'm necro-ing dead.gif this thread, because...

Soon, in Celest, there will be a Bombard! tournament taking place in honor of the Festival of Light! And we're still looking for players! We have 5 so far, so there's still plenty of room! Winner will get 5 credits, a cityfavour, and a jewelry design from...I forget who, but I'll find out if anyone's interested in that prize.

Sorry, but due to the prizes being city-specific, this tournament is only open to Celest citizens. But if you're a citizen and want to join up, please tell me! Doesn't matter how, responding to this thread, sending me a message here or in-game, whatever, just let me know!

And if I win I'll have to use this smiley. KneelSuckers.gif

Unacceptable. What if I disguise myself as a Merian and sleep with one of your Dukes?

I am looking to get in on the game itself at least. look out for Vhaas and be willing to teach him, and you'll have a game. He's a rogue so it shouldn't be much of a problem. Not very friendly, but he'll play.

There are significantly better ways to announce this then through the forums. I would recommend the in game news boards next time.

I vote for Doman. He'd hit that.

Uh? Announcing myself? That would be out of character.

I think he was referring to my announcement of the Bombard tournament in the first place here.

I've never played this. :I

I play it, it's fun. A Connect Four type of game would be fun, too, if the Lusternian Fates could implement it, somehow.
