Long time ago we played with 22nd batallion a game that they called it "Javelinball". They set up the rules and it was very funny. We thought making a mod for it because javelin was hard to see in distance. So I have finally decided and here is Warball. Basically is a football match. Here is the rules, set by 22nd:
Requirements
2 teams
Default clothes
One javelin in the middle
Free 1h weapons
A keeper with a sword and board for each team.
A referee with a lot of javelins and a horse
A pitch
Rules
You must score points by getting the javelin into the goal.
When you have the javelin you must hold it in your hand.
When the keeper catches the "ball" a new javelin is thrown in and the keeper gets to do the "kickoff".
If the javelin is thrown off the pitch the other team gets a throw-in.
Throwing the javelin into someone is a foul.
Hitting someone without the javelin is a foul.
Not having the javelin equipped when you get tackled is a foul.
If you get killed in any way you are off the pitch until the end of the play.
A foul = an end of play so if you get killed by a foul your straight back on. However the person who made the foul is off.
The advantage rule, called by the captain and seconded by the referee.
The offside rule.
Only the person who makes the tackle can pick up the javelin and everyone else must back off to 10 yards. As soon as he picks up the javelin he is fair to take though.
End of play = the ball leaves the pitch, a foul, a goal, goal kick after a save.
If the referee gets in the way he must throw the javelin between two people the first one to it wins the javelin.
You must go for the javelin, not the player. Do not pull out your weapon until the opponent has picked up the javelin.
The keeper can kill anyone in his area even if they do not have the javelin.
The game ends when the time is up AND the ball has gone out of play. Like rugby.
If the keeper saves it with his body and not his shield it is a goal if his corpse falls into the goal, a foul if not (defenders favour).
---
The referee's interpretation of the rules. Sometimes it may be deemed better to keep playing or the referee may be lenient with some rules and not others. This is his decision, he is the referee. Do not argue.
Features:
- You can choose Goalkeeper, Footballer or Referee.
- Referee has balls and yellow and red cards. With red cards, you can expel (not sure if it's said like that in english) players hitting them with it.
- Referee can use also whistle, pressing the "p" key.
- Above left it's shown a scoreboard.
- Goalkeeper has a new animation when press "block".
