Re: (TFT) Hail TFT List

[lifeisfun@aol.com]

Thanks for the reply Craig,
 
You know, I hadn't thought about the reverse perspective on healing spells.  Your comment about a goblin rolling that dreaded tripple damage made me consider what a pain it would be to watch the opponents heal themseves in battle.  Oh sure, it would mean more experience points to go around, but gah!  That would drag out the battle, wouldn't it?  Although, it might shift the focus away from "cap the wizard" shifting the player focus toward "ace the healer"!  
 
Woa.. think about an enemy wizard whipping out a scroll with full heal and using it on the four hex dragon the group just battled.  Battles could get way out of control.  Then again, out of control might be interesting.  
 
I wonder, what happens to someone healed by magic if you cast remove thrown spell on them?  Hmm.. thoughts all-a-jumble.
 
Good Fortune,
Rick

Welcome to the list!

Healing:  Yeah, I think SJ deliberately designed TFT to be blood thirsty: it's
a system that will cheerfully chew up and spit out your character on a
moment's notice.  ("Wait a sec, the Goblin rolled a 3!")  Presumably the
ruthless healing rules are in the same vein.  I've always felt that there
should be some "fatigue healing" after combat: if you have twelve turns of
rest you get back a single point.  After that, one hit per two days seems
almost too generous: from death's door to full strength... in 20 days??!!
(But then, I've never had much interest in playing "The Reality Trip",
either!)

Online Arena: cool, let us know how it goes!

  Hail Rick - and hail list!. I just joined the list a few days ago myself,
and I'm also glad to see an active group of TFT fans. I started playing the
original Melee when it came out and couldn't wait for Wizard. I've always
loved the simplicity of the system - its like a computer language: a few
reserved keywords can be put together to make as rich a system as you like.

  As of the last couple weeks I'm working on a project to be able to play
Melee/Wizard online, arena combat against a few friends, if nothing else. If I
ever come up with anything interesting I'll let the list know ;)

  quickly!

  I am reasonably excited to find a set of peers who still enjoy TFT  gaming.
