War Game

[marauder]

Alright, I think I remember something like this from Hydrolisis a long long time ago, and I've been thinking about it alot recently so I decided to make up my own game. It's not really so much a game as it is a questionaire of sorts. The question is this: Let's say you have a 20 man team, and you have $330 to buy guns with. How would you organize your team? and Which guns would you buy?

Here's the list of all the guns you can buy.

SS 10: $4
SS 20: $4.50
SS 25: $5
SS 30: $5.50
SS 40: $6
SS 50: $8
SS 60: $8.50
SS MDS: $8.50
SS 100: $9.50

Max-D 6000: $16.50
Max-D Secret Strike: $15
SC 400: $10
SC 500: $14

CPS 1700: $25
CPS 4100: $28
CPS 2000: $30
CPS 2500: $30
CPS 2700: $30
CPS 3000: $40
CPS 3200: $40
WW Cricket: $5.50
WW Gremlin: $6
WW Lightning: $10
WW Piranha: $10
WW Argon: $12
WW Xenon: $15

I'm gonna wait 'til a couple of people go first just so that my choices don't influence anyone.

How experienced would this team be? [That will influence my choices].

[LIGHT ANNIHILATOR]

5 groups of 4 and each group would have 2 monster's 1 cps 1700 and one heavy cannon like a cps 3200 monster x cps 2500,2700 or monster xl and mad-d 2000's as sidearms and the monster's would be $20 since that's what cps 4100's were going for at my target.

That would be what i would give my team if this were a soakfest otherwise the list would be a little bit different.

EDIT: these guns might take you over the $330 budget if so switch the 4100's with 2100's,1000's or 1200,s and don't buy sidearms.

As experienced as you want.

[SSCBen]

All 20 people are independent. 10 will get XP 150s ($18), 8 would get SC 600s ($16) and two would get WW Lightnings ($10). That would leave $2 unspent, given that there's no sales tax.

I choose these guns because they are small, relatively cheap and very good. Shot time was the biggest factor in choosing these water guns.

[LIGHT ANNIHILATOR]

Why use those guns without greater firepower(like heavy gunners) and how would you divide your army into groups.

[DX]

Ok, I would have 4 groups of 5, 5 would get CPS 1500s [$125], 5 would get CPS 1000s [$100], 10 would get Piranhas [$100], leaving $5 extra.

Range was a factor here, but the monetary restrictions were harsh on choices with power. .

[emperor_james]

The best deal here is probably the Piranha (I think it is actually more than $15 though). With that in mind, 10 Piranhas, 7 CPS 2100s, and 3 Power Packs, exactly $330.

BTW, Light Annihiliator, your list goes way over the limit, about $700, and about $600 with the changes.

[LIGHT ANNIHILATOR]

That would be the armoury i would like to have for my team but a more realistic armory would be the lighting as the standard rifle with 4100's or 1700's for the heavy gunners. But if i had a big $900 budget or i were curveuk and had no budget i would like my team's armoury more.

My team would consist of:

2 scouts: SS 100 MK 2 - $19
1 sniper: CPS 2000 - $30
2 artillery: CPS 3200 - $80
5 rangers: CPS 1200 - $20
10 grunts: XP 150 - $180
-----------------------------------
$229

$1 left over!!!!

[LIGHT ANNIHILATOR]

That's the best team i have seen so far that stays within the $330 budget. Nice job.

[Wild Boys]

1 Sniper CPS 2500 $30
3 Scouts 2 with WW Lightening
$20
1 with SS 40 $6
3 Rangers CPS 1000 $60
1 Heavy Weapon Officer CPS 1500 $25
1 Extra-Heavy Weapon Officer CPS 3000 $40
8 Grunts XP 310 $128
3 very fast and skilled spies XP 55 $21
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Total $330

[Some Guy]

I would organize the team into 5 groups of 4. Each group would function somewhat as if they were a 5 person team.

There would be one scout/light group:

Ranger.......WW Xenon
Grunt.........XP 270
Grunt.........XP 70
HWO..........SS 100
Group Total: $44

There would be two Grunt groups. Each one would get this:
Ranger............CPS 1000
Grunt..............WW Piranha
Grunt..............WW Lightning
HWO...............CPS 1500
Group total: 65$

1 ranger..........CPS 1000
Grunt..............WW Piranha
Grunt..............WW Lightning
HWO...............CPS 1500
Group total: 65$
Grunt Group Total:130$

One HWO group:
1 ranger...........CPS 1700
Escort..............XP 310
Escort..............CPS 1000
HWO................CPS 2500
Group Total: 91

And one Flanking/Ambush force:
Ranger.............CPS 1000
Ranger.............Max-d 5000
Grunt...............WW Lightning
HWO................CPS 1500
Group Total: $65

Final Total is: $330

How do you guys like my combo?

Three groups of five with the same weapons: Two people with XP 310s, Two people with XP 270s, and one person with a CPS 1200. - $72 each group, $216 total.

Loners: Two snipers, each with a CPS 1700. - $50

Fast Striking Attack squad: three people with CPS 1000s, the leader of the trio with an XP 215. - $64

Total: $330

I think my team would be efficient. I always use a small shock group to start some action in real soaker battles, and it always works too. :p
