Official Message Boards of the Darkon Wargaming Club, Inc.

So, we've played with the new armor system for awhile now, and overall I think it was a great thing for Darkon. That said, I have heard many people complain about the number of hits plate takes and about 5oz leather counting as armor (because really, it is clothing not armor). I'd like people to dis...

Yes, they all require a wooden core

I have to agree with some of the points Pat made. My biggest concern atm would be how few people have most of the awards so far. That coupled with a lack of any quorom requirement would be a receipe for disaster. Lets say Lord Frumpy Pants is the ONLY holder of a specific award at the Triumverate me...

Wrong. It is we Ascended and sent back/foward in time to defend Talera...er Darkon.

Your both wrong. We're already in Valhalla.

Why not simply add a statement to the effect of a NC member may not sit on the Senate at anytime when the Senate is discussing the removal of anyone from the NC? Seems like a fairly simple and straightforward solution to me.

I'd like to take the time to thank the idiot(s) who destroyed the restrooms at Pax. Your complete disregard for the rest of Darkon is admirable. Those I heard laughing and joking about the matter in Sunday morning should be equally proud. I am sure you and they are great friends. /sarcasm off What h...

With the bylaws changes, those in charge of appointing Marshals changed. As a result, it has not yet been done. I am asking that all current marshals continue with their duties until we get the new ones settled. If you are a current marshal and can not do so for whatever reason, please let me know. ...

First thing - the Magistrate is the guy to talk to about rules and rule checks and clarifications. Do not go to the President anymore. Second Thing - Questions about the bylaws are directed to the President. And now... Certain awards are only meant to be given out in specifically limited numbers. On...

Good question. CC is awarded to those that served a full term on the Board (of Directors). As of November 2012, the LM is a member of the Board of Directors. The LM was never a member of the Executive Board. So, once you serve a full term on the Board of Directors you would get the CC and it is not ...

Just sent you the permissions to put them up in the BA gallery on the website too.

We will continue to playtest the new hit system in ALL scenarios and events starting December 2 and ending December 30.

Note, this hit system passed Senate AND the Board so go into effect January 1.

John Machate- President

Annually after October.

and garb which would suit ‘Nobility’ when fighting is not expected. I am against this addition... here's why: OK By these rules I can now fight without armor if I get jumped...that's all well and good... but now I have an added stipulation that I must wear fine noble garb to do it. So now when my a...

So, we got rid of Knight Errant, then Lord of the Realm because they caused confusion. Putting ANYTHING with Knight in it back into the game will cause confusion not matter how appropriate it would be....

Thrush is ccorrect. JayJay of NQ is the best contact for him.

Eric,

It was completely answered here - viewtopic.php?f=3&t=449 way back when it was decided.

This doesnt mean stop sending them, nominations can be submitted at anytime but don't get considered until after October of the year. Nomination period will run from Thanksgiving 2012 to Sept. 30, 201...

Yup.

It was already determined that we would use the rules as they are written.

This actually does not help the returning veterans since the rules they played under were changed
