WOOKIEE RANGE! (tm) bowling!

[YodaBreaker]

spartan117's idea about throwing a Clone with a Wookiee made me think of a new Attacktix variant: WOOKIEE RANGE! (tm) bowling. You'd play it and score it just like regular bowling, except you'd use 10-point Clones or Droids for pins (X), Tarrful or Chewie (W) for the bowlers, and any spare figures (X) as a ball. Use your Wookiee's outstretched hand to strike the ball into the pins! Line them up with the pins on one side of the table and bowler and ball on the other end, like this:

W-F




X
XX
XXX
XXXX

You could play a full 10 frames this way, using the first ball to go for the strike, and the second to go for the spare, if need be. Here are some more detailed rules about bowling scoring:

Bowling scoring example

VARIATIONS:
Use only 3 or 6 pins total, with appropriate scoring adjustments (better for beginners).
Mix in some 20-point figures (e.g., Clone Lieutenants or Super Battle Droids) in the pins to add some additional challenges.
Use figures with larger or smaller bases as the balls to simulate throwing a heavier or lighter ball, respectively.
Use striker Jedis as bowlers too (or instead)!
Use the actual WOOKIEE RANGE! (tm) technique for bowling, instead of just striking.

[YodaBreaker]

Hehehe...having played Attacktix golf today made me want to really, really want to think of some other sport to emulate with Attacktix. Wouldn't have thought of it without your post, though!

Now post it in the game variatiations topic. Good idea by the way.

Consider it done

I agree love Bowling too!

Although I do want to use this in a game, but all my opponents read this board, too

I will definitely try it out.

Hmm...well, I'm married to all of my regular opponents, so I'm even worse off that way But at least I can hone my skills by myself, and I'm somewhat more motivated to do so

lol this game works great to get better at aiming when throwing with tarfful
its great practice in for my house rule idea thing.Thanks Yodabreaker

[YodaBreaker]

Glad it serves that purpose for you, too I love the idea of using my strikers as shooters in a more regular way, and I'm gonna have a whole new set of tactics to practice when I play tonight.

I had so much fun last night with my puzz 3d i threw a clone into one of them and it went through it so cool!

[YodaBreaker]

Good gravy, but you really *do* destroy your terrain! Such is the nice thing about Puzz3D, though. Perhaps next you can try using your towers as pins?

[spartan117]

Now thats a good idea...
