In the midst of the fields was a relatively open area; the grass was scattered with trees, logs, rocks, and other natural obstacles, but there were clear paths in and out of each side of the field. It was perfect for capture the flag. Straw had used some paint from one of the town houses to mark out the rectangular playing field, including a line horizontally down the middle, then put a flag at each end- red on one end, and blue on the other.
After setting up, she looked up at the sky. The sun was out, but she could spot dark clouds in the distance- there was a possible threat of rain. At the very least, they ought to start soon; she didn't want the field markers to wash away before the game began. "Capture the flag," she called out, more loudly than she had for anything else since she had come to Elysium. "Randomly assigned teams. Touch-tag rules. First to five points wins." She'd explain in more detail once everyone got here.
/rules:
-teams will be randomly assigned after at least four people join
-if you are on the offensive, to get across the other team's side, get the flag, and run back takes one post each, for a total of three posts
-if you are defending your flag, when you post, you can pick one enemy that is on your side of the field to attack
-on each post, if you are attacked, roll a six-sided die for each attacker- 3 or greater means you dodge and keep running, 1-2 means you're hit and must go back to your side (without the flag, if you were carrying it)
-if you make it three posts without being hit, you cross the line back to your side and your team gets a point; after each point, the flags are returned to their original sides, then play starts again
-I'll probably tweak these later to make them more clear, if you have any questions let me know
