After me and my buds finished watching 300 and wiping the drool from our collective mouths, we were supposed to play hockey. However, the weather was terrible so we went home instead. All being at home, and having nothing else to do, we fired up Soldat and started a server. Everyone was using a chainsaw and knives, as 300 had rubbed off on us. That's when we got the idea to have some fun. There was 10 of us, and we had 3 guys on alpha team (the Spartans) and 8 on blue (Persians). The Spartans could only use chainsaws, and the Persians only knives. Red also had to stay in a relatively small space so that you couldn't just run away, and blues weren't allowed to throw the knives, making it more of a challenge.

It was EPIC. We played it for a long time, laughing all the time, as it was very fun, and very 300-ish as slow-motion deaths were on. Every time a blue managed to kill a red, they switched sides. We decided to have no jetting as well, as it made it even crazier. Imagine, if you will, 8 soldaten rushing 3 reds set up in a "phalanx" (We made it out of boredom, one guy prone, one guy crouch, and one guy standing, all with chainsaws overtop of eachother) then when they get there, all hell breaks loose. Instantly 4 blues die, while the other 4 manage the jump over top. One red gets stabbed in the face in the carnage, while the other 2 each take down one blue. One of the 2 remaining blues manages to take out a red from behind, then the last red is left alone, with a blue on each side. They both run at him and jump, one decides to prone-jump into him. The red concentrates on the one that isn't prone first, and easily decapitates him, then, he goes prone, with the last blue just missing him by centimeters in his mad prone jump. The red calmly lifts his chainsaw and guts the blue. He /victories, then we do it all again.

Honestly, it was one of the funnest things i've done on Soldat in awhile, especially since it was with close friends. I can't even keep count of how many times "THIS IS SPAAAAAAARTTTTTAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!" showed up just before the attack.

I'm looking forward to doing it again, in short

. Try it, it's a really big challenge to get them with a knife.

EDIT: It's of note that we messed around with the weapon settings a few times in an attempt to make it better. We made the chainsaw have a higher fire intreveral so that you actually had to pick the right moment to swing, rather than just hold it down and hack and slash.

Kyklis I can send you a mod that changes the chainsaw to a spear, if you want.

Kyklis · « **Reply #3 on:** March 18, 2007, 10:03:19 pm »

That would be sweet

. Speaking of which, I haven't seen you on AIM lately, where'd ya go?

I would have added team kill on for the sake of attempts of turning one's effort against their allies. But otherwise that sounds friggin awsome. I have to try it. Hey, with the Trench War Maps having no jets and the hoast being able to mod weapons and chose which ones are usable, why not someone make a special series of 300-like enviornment maps I guess.

Once I figure out how to mod weapons, I'll try that with the chain saw. Sounds fun.

Kyklis · « **Reply #5 on:** March 19, 2007, 06:16:29 pm »

I would be VERY interested into starting that kind of game up with someone.

I'm sure we could get together a map (ctf_sparta?) if someone can create some graphics.

Alright, i've decided i'm going to try my hand at Soldat movie making. I'm going to PM people that have already stated that they're interested in being an actor for it, and anyone else who is, just say so

Sytrus · « **Reply #14 on:** March 29, 2007, 05:32:45 pm »

Clow · « **Reply #17 on:** March 30, 2007, 06:28:17 am »

Yeh that would be pretty sweet but idk how that would work out shooting a ton of arrows randomly...

Sytrus · « **Reply #18 on:** March 30, 2007, 08:14:55 am »

Since MM posted in this, this thread officially rocks.

ghg · « **Reply #19 on:** March 30, 2007, 10:47:04 am »

Actually soon after I posted my last comment I changed my Roar.wav sound to a "This is SPARTAAA!!!" soundbyte. Really good. If anyone doing any modding for this then PM me your E-mail and I'll send it you.
