Who wants to play?

I won't be a player, i'll do the dice rolling and take care of the money. I'll use a random number generator to roll a dice, then i'll work out what square you land on etc

Also, New Zealand or English version?

Code: [Select]
Player Cash StartRoll
Pyro Car $1,500 9
Deanox Dog $1,500 5
Super Hat $1,500 11 9
Xeno Ship $1,500 11 11

Super and Xeno both rolled 11, they rolled again and Xeno gets to start.


Tiwaking goes to jail, and stays there the rest of the game.

Auto-buy for the next turn (roll is a 'double', auto-buy each vacant property I land on).

The whole game of Monolopy can pretty much be played without user intervention. There's little reason not to buy a street wheen landing on it. The only real gameplay comes later in the game when a player has to decided when/where to build houses. It can make for long and boring games.

Risk however, I like, there is a lot more decision making involved.

I am tempted to write a Java based version of Monopoly, but instead of using a Street Map/Street Names: Use Thread Names ('Street Names') and Thread Posts('Houses/Hotels')

Instead of a Jail we could have 'The Cooler'. Instead of money we could use Reputation.

Instead of taxes we could use infractions which eat your Reputation.
One of the Chance cards could be Necromancy. One of the Community Chest cards could be Necromancy too!


It is pretty much how the forum system works at the moment.

Samurai Swords which is more or less Shogun: Total War in a board game.
Dune (original), the Book Series as a board game.
A Game of Thrones (original), the Book Series as a board game - minus the sex.
