Conquer Club

My first feasible idea came to me in a flash today as I started prepping my house for that most holy of sports entertainment events-Wrestlemania! No draft yet, but I'm very excited and wanted to discuss the idea before I sketch something in my GIMP chicken scratch.

My idea is to make a wrestling ring and set it up for a battle royale. I'm thinking of putting 32 wrestlers (territories) in the ring. The map would then be uniquely suited for an actual CC battle royale, but could also be played regularly.

The only objective would be to eliminate every player, as in true BR style.

Pondering whether every wrestler (territory) can attack every other wrestler, or if it should be based on position in the ring. I kind of like the idea of every territory being able to attack every other territory because I don't know if any other map allows you to do that, which would mean unique gameplay.

I feel like someone's watching me over my shoulder!

I think it's an excellent Idea, which Supermax touches on with the central yard, but I definitely agree there's room to explore here!

Hi squishy. Firstly... properly, this should be posted on the ideas forum since you don't yet have a draft ready, but that's ok, a mod will probably move it swiftly.

Secondly... well, I'm going to divide your idea into two parts, theme and gameplay.

The theme sounds interesting. "Wrestling" is a hilarious "sport" that has lots of elements that could make for a real funny map. Of course you couldn't use names of real "wrestlers" but this would just give you an opportunity to use your imagination... I can see potential here.

As for the gameplay, sorry but this part will need some further thought. 32 territories where every territory attacks each other just makes for games of either luck or speed, depending whether you play it fs or seq. Yeah, it might be funny for that once-in-a-year BR but what about the rest of the time?

The theme would allow for so much more. You could have wrestling teams as bonus areas, and part of the wrestlers could be outside the ring, while a few would be in the ring, and have some special assault abilities... You could have the promoter/head honcho guy as an objective, or maybe as a bonus... and audience could be territories as well... You could add all kinds of hilarious gameplay elements here, with a theme like this. Make a territory named "chair" that is under the ring, and allows you to bombard every wrestler (you know, cause you can pick up the chair and smash people in the face with it...)

Well, that's my input on this, looking forward to see what you'll make of this.

[Moved] to ideas.

The Spanish announcers' table will definitely be featured...

Thanks for the feedback all! Definitely gives me some things to think about.

This idea would be great as a sort of "mini" Prison Riot map, with weapons (like chairs and ladders) and alliances (instead of gangs) with one leader and varying bonuses based on how many members of the alliance you hold.

You could also use the audience as additional territories, with bonuses for how much of the audience you control.

For wrestler names, it would be pretty easy to tweak some well known classic names:

Bulk Hogan
Jack the Viper
Andy the Giant
Bert Michaels
So Cold Sam Austin
The Boulder
The Billion Dollar Man
etc

I'd be more apt to do like the baseball map did, using obvious first or last names.... Hulk (or Hogan), Jake (or The Snake), Roddy (or Piper), Bret, Andre (of The Giant), Bam Bam, Dynamite, Owen, Koko, Jesse, George (or The Animal), Rick (or Steamboat).... Much more fun that way.

and now entering the ring Gilbert "the Gripper" Goatnad

oh no the mighty tamale just 6 6 6 him right out
