Voltra's Space Station
It's a Winter Wonderland In Here!

Original Hangout Here!
Spacey Discord Station

Helloooo Voltrans and visiting aliens! Welcome to our little Space Station; we're a little weird here, but that's normal for us. Another upside is this: we're not snowed in...but that hasn't stopped the festivities! We're having our own little Solstice celebration up here, bringing a little bit of Voltra to our li'l station.
Oh, the snow? Yeah, I know; we may not be snowed in, but some of the crewmen decided that it would be festive and kind of fun to have some artificial snow around the station...and I let 'em, as long as the simulated snow didn't impede anybody or get in the way of important systems, and that they fed the stuff back into the replicators when they were done.
I also let them replicate some [i]real
snow, but only in our arboretum; it's currently in "winter mode", so be sure to put on a coat or grab a personal warming shield before heading in there. We've got an ongoing snowball fight in there, kind of a battle royale; last one standing wins. Just...no chucking snowballs at people as they're leaving or entering the arboretum. That's just rude.[/i]

IT'S GAME TIME!

Game, you say? Well, I did say we had a snowball fight going on in there. It's Battle Royale, and whoever is the last one standing (and has the most points) wins.

What do I win?
A bundle from the event store! Woo!

How do I play?
This is a dice-rolling game. Everyone starts out with fifty Hit Points, and if you're playing you roll two dice; one twenty-sided (for hit), and one ten-sided (for damage)--be sure to declare who you're throwing the snowball at, though!
For defenders: You just need to roll a 20-sided die, and if the attacker's roll was higher you're hit. If it's lower, it misses and you're safe.


And now...for modifiers!
Yep, you heard me. Modifiers. There are several modifiers in this game, all of which determine how much damage you take and if you get hit by the snowballs at all. They are:
-Snowball Cannon: A potato cannon, basically, but for firing snowballs. This adds a +2 modifier to hit when you throw a snowball. Can be bought for 5 EXP points.
-Fort: What it says on the tin; it's a snowfort. This adds a +5 modifier to your defensive rolls. Can be bought for 10 EXP points.
-Snowball Catapult: Load 'er up and fling a buttload of snowballs at your target. Adds +5 to your hit roll, and can be bought for 10 EXP points.
-Personal Shield: Also what it says on the tin. If you like, you can pick up a full-body shield device and activate it, providing you some protection against snowballs. Adds a +2 modifier to defensive rolls. Can be bought for 5 EXP points.


How do they work?
First off, you've got to buy them, and once you have you don't have to buy them again. When you post to attack or defend, declare whether or not you're going to use it, and I'll calculate the mods in to the rolls.

All right, now how do I post?
Here's the code you'll want to use for your snowball-flinging shenanigans:
[color=#b600f5][size=40][b]I'M TAKIN' AIM AT.....[/b][/size]
[ping your target here]
[post any modifiers you're using here[/color]
@Geist:


For defenders:
[color=#00e8ff]I'M ON DEFENSE!![/color]
[ping the one attacking you]
[Post any modifiers you're using here]
@Geist:

A minor note; pinging me is required in both cases. Otherwise, there's no guarantee that I'll see either post and won't be able to reply properly.

~~~

Apart from this, just follow the rules of the Station and Voltra's ToS! If you've got any questions regarding the game (or any ideas on how to clarify it), lemme know so I can explain or implement it.

Oh, yeah; it's open X'D. I'm currently trying to watch Cosmos and finish a bandanna.
The Internet seems to be determined to throw temper tantrums the whole time though =_=

@ava: Oh I'm okay now, thanks for asking ☺️

I'm having a lot of fun with the event, and I have never posted on the forums so much πŸ˜„

Usually I just play games in the Arcade or check the Exchange for items... I'm mostly a lurker, but this site is so nice with so many nice people that I finally am encouraged to post more and more 😊

How about you?
