What happens if we attack someone? Do you think it is literal, or...figurative?

[ let's hope figurative ]

Hello. I don't think we've met.

My name's Guy Cecil. I've been here from the start, but I've played with every team but this one. Looks like it'll be a rough one.

[lands on :x]

I take it from the raw meat, unhappy faces, and talking about attack and defense that this is one of the rumored Bad Games?

[hoh. reaches up to smooth his feathers and says quietly to just him]

It's been a long time. I guess this guy wants to break in the new kids.

To protect? Or attack?

Re: Discussion

[unionoftheheart]

To attack. In games like this...they try to put all the damage upon themselves, if possible, and take hits for other teams.

Re: Discussion

[silentknight]

Can we attack and defend the same?

Re: Discussion

[unionoftheheart]

He...didn't say we couldn't? Though there aren't enough blue stones to cancel out all the attack...
