QWUB.Qwest Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 (edited) Drafting: 1. 5 Players 2. MU, Azura, your corresponding butler (Felicia or Jakob), and Scarlet are all free. 3. First-gen units are drafted, then any second-gen units created by your pairings can be used. 4. There are 40 remaining draftable characters. Each player will draft 8 units, with no one left over. 5. The non-corresponding character are drafted as one pick. So if you choose a male MU, then Felicia is free and you choose to draft Jakob, nobody with a female MU can draft Felicia. 6. Kana and Shigure are free, but Dwyer is not (even if you pick female MU.) Dwyer comes with whoever drafts the non-corresponding servant (so yes, even if Jakob is free you have to draft Felicia to get Dwyer.) Rules: 1. No extra maps (challenges, invasions, amiibo battles) and no spotpass, DLC, or path bonuses. 2. Non-drafted units can trade items with other units, but can't do any other action or attack/defense stance. 3. Hard/Classic difficulty 4. Visiting other castles, forging, cooking, and capturing units are banned. 5. Paralogues are free when it comes to turn count unless you take more than 20 turns on one. 6. All units can be used for the first 5 chapters. Not exactly optimal to use Kaze or something if you didn't draft him, but this way nobody will get stuck in basically the prologue. http://serenesforest.net/fire-emblem-fates/revelation/character-recruitment/ Here's a list of all units in Revelation. I'll also keep track of available characters when the draft starts. I'll add any other rules you guys want or that I forgot. This is most likely the most complicated draft in terms of ruleset I've ever run. Edited March 23, 2016 by QWUB.Qwest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Some notes: - What is your stance on visiting other castles/forging/cooking? - How are paralogue turn counts handled? - What difficulty is this on? - Please include a unit list. . .there should be one floating around somewhere. Check out the Conquest rule set for some more things that you might want to consider. Not interested in drafting right now, 'cause I've got enough on my plate.

QWUB.Qwest Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 Ah thanks good points! 1. I would say no forging. It's not completely broken, but without a cap in place it just becomes unfair. So until we as a community figure out a way to balance forging it's banned for now. One idea I had was making it cost gold to forge, so if you forged a weapon you'd have to buy 3000 gold worth of items and then discard them all. It's a work in progress. 2. Paralogue turns don't count for under 20 turns. 3. Hard/Classic difficulty And I'll try to find a unit list. I have school though, so I'm not sure if I'll find it before I have to go.

QWUB.Qwest Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 And visiting other castles is just banned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicIsOP Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Hmm looks cool. Just a few points: -Way too many units left undrafted. 13= too many -Capturing units should be banned. -What are the rules for Kana/Shigure/Dwyer? otherwise i'm in.

QWUB.Qwest Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 Good points! Thanks! I've only run one draft before, and it was just a really casual Awakening draft on reddit. This one is way more complicated in terms of rule set. And yeah, 13 is too much. At the time I was thinking that if everyone drafted 12 characters, the max possible, it'd be easy as a normal playthrough you could basically just run a full team. Forgot about how you won't be able to rely on clutch characters like Camilla, Ryoma and Xander. I'm getting a lot of rule-set inspiration from a recent Conquest draft, but otherwise I'm trying to figure out some ways of my own to balance this all out. Hopefully it all works out!

eclipse Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 If you want to cut the number of units down, you can do the following: 1. Increase the draft to five players, leaving everyone with 8 + 2 units (with kids). 2. Have the last unit banned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QWUB.Qwest Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 Changed. I accidentally counted Scarlet when drafting, who's free for obvious reasons, so with 5 players there's no one left over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QWUB.Qwest Posted March 25, 2016 Author Share Posted March 25, 2016 If we don't get any more players soon we may have to call the draft off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexaTheSomebody Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 I'm in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QWUB.Qwest Posted May 29, 2016 Author Share Posted May 29, 2016 Sorry, but even with you here we've only got 3 people, and I don't know if the second guy is still even up for it. If you know a couple people who want to draft then we could still do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jinsoa Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 (edited) Eh...maybe I'll join in though I may not have time due to chores and the fact that I'm playing a re-run of Revelations though I'm not against joining. This would also be my first draft so if I do take part I'd find out if I'm cut out for it. Edited June 3, 2016 by Jinsoa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 That makes five people. All we have to do is see whether or not TC/Alexa come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinsoa Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Yeah though I'm not certain.(it maybe summer break for me though I have a job, chores, and need to catch up on sleep.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 As long as you can draft your units, it's fine. It's not like you have to complete the draft in a week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinsoa Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Ok. Again this is my first draft so I'll probably make mistakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Feel free to ask questions, especially if you need to figure out "creative" ways around the rules. (and yes, I've done this before) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinsoa Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Alright I'll ask them as we go along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
