For those who haven't seen the game yet, the website is here:

So in this game, you hire slaves, choose their race/class, deck them out in whatever armor and weapons you have, and send them to face off against other gladiators and watch as they bash, slash, and smash the bones and brains out of each other.

When you send your guy to fight, you get a text based description of how your guy fought against the other guy detailed down to the injuries received, body parts attacked, strategies used, and so on.

Even though the game's text based, it's full of sweet illustrations which I find helps with the immersion.

Here's a pic of a gladiator's arm getting lopped off.

There are many more hand drawn illustrations depicting various injuries including but not limited to:
- Body sliced in half
- Eyes smashed out
- Fingers sliced off
- Ankle torn to pieces
- Shin getting crushed
- Skull getting caved in
ect.

So anyone else play the game out there?

*looks at picture*

Great. Now I have a craving for meat again.
*goes out to get steak*

Made an account. I guess I killed someone? Or cut their arm off. Or something. There was a bunch of blood.

Oh man. This game is pretty fun.
I don't like the long waits though.

It's more of a "side-dish" game where you don't have to play long hours to do everything.

I'm hooked to it .Gotta love that enforcer.

"BOBBY JOE collides with STORMBANE and tries to strike his adversary.
Massive shot caves in STORMBANE's chest! (+106 Damage)"

♥♥♥♥ yes. Sent him to the graveyard.

EDIT :
"The blow to THE URK's thigh lands with mighty force! (+180 Damage)"

Is it normal to do that much damage before level 4?

"BOBBY JOE kicks THE URK in the head right before ripping it off and adding it to his collection!"

Harsh.

EDIT EDIT:

"BOBBY JOE smiles at the crowd moments before helping VALENCIA achieve the eternal sleep!"

I should have called this guy Bloodbath McGrath

McGrath?


It's actually spelled MacGrath but ♥♥♥♥ you


On topic, Pit of War is interesting, but way too slow paced for my tastes.

Bloodbath McGrath, the butcher of New Liberty.

"Grizzly shot severs NEOW's spine sending strange electrical shocks to NEOW's entire body making him look like a rag doll! (+129 Damage)"

Feint is really good. The other guy basically couldn't attack after that.

actually pretty fun. i'll probably forget about it after a few days though :/


edit:

Awesome shot to MRALEX's ribs gashes the side open and makes it difficult for MRALEX to keep internal organs 'internal'! (+175 Damage)




Jesus ♥♥♥♥ christ. Rage specialization gets INSANE damage. (protip: MRALEX was my gladiator's victim)


edit:edit:

of course if you want to see real damage, check the fight records in the blood games. i've seen upwards of 1000 damage in there ._.

Just got bored of it today ,too repetitive for my taste.
