So this is a thread to set up battles using MELEE by Steve Jackson Games.

I was thinking of starting off with this little map (happy to accept a better one if anybody has it):

Grid numbers so we can say where we are moving, each post is somebody's turn and we can use orokos.com for rolls. I've put in a few little obstructions to give a little bit more possible tactics than the blank maps that come with MELEE.

Gringnr Gringnr and Stevethulhu Stevethulhu expressed interest. Anybody else can join of course since we can just run multiple maps. I made the above in HexKit.
 
Great idea. You found an excellent way to play by post! I'm in, mos def.
 
Cool! I'll throw up my first fighter tomorrow morning.
 
I was thinking the basic human set up.

24 in total: 8 ST, 8 DX initially and 8 points to spend.

That's what I'll do myself. No problem if you want to be an Elf etc, they all add up to 24 still just with different initial values and MA.

I'm almost tempted. Not much expertise in the ruleset, though.

Sorry for the wait

Flavius Flav, Centurion

Shortsword (2d-1)

Lemme know what you think. Appreciate your taking the time to set this up.
 
Flavius is a quick dude, this should be interesting. I've to head off to bed shortly, but I'll get this started in the morning!
