# Game Rules
|
|
|
|
1. **Alliances (Solo vs Solo)**:
|
|
1. Two single players who encounter each other may form an alliance.
|
|
2. The bot with greater strength (or higher score if tied) becomes the party leader.
|
|
3. Bots are not required to ally, but larger parties have a significant advantage in battle.
|
|
|
|
2. **Party vs Party Battles**:
|
|
1. Two opposing parties that encounter each other must battle.
|
|
2. Battles consist of 3 bouts: each party rolls a D20 die, multiplied by their squad's total strength. The highest score wins the bout. Best 2 out of 3 bouts wins the battle.
|
|
3. The winning party leader receives **+2 score points**, and each original winning member receives **+1 score point**.
|
|
4. The losing party leader receives **-1 score point** and respawns at a random free position. All other members of the losing party are absorbed into the winning party.
|
|
|
|
3. **Solo Bot vs Party Encounters**:
|
|
1. A solo bot will willingly join a party if the party leader's strength is greater than or equal to its own.
|
|
2. If the party leader has lower strength, the solo bot refuses to join, and the party responds by engaging in battle.
|
|
|
|
4. **Party Movement**:
|
|
1. The party leader controls the movement direction.
|
|
2. Squad members follow the leader in a single-file line (each member steps into the spot vacated by the bot ahead of them) while maintaining a distance of 1.
|
|
|
|
5. **Obstacles & Terrain Squeeze**:
|
|
1. Mountains and forests are impassable.
|
|
2. Bots can squeeze diagonally between adjacent obstacle corners.
|
|
3. When squeezing through a diagonal bottleneck:
|
|
- A solo bot loses **0.1 strength**.
|
|
- In a party, the leader loses **0.2 strength**, and follower members each lose **0.1 strength**.
|
|
4. Moving along the open outer edge of an obstacle incurs no penalty. Minimum bot strength cannot fall below 0.1.
|
