A new (?) building idea
« on: May 04, 2004, 07:31:37 pm »
Greetings,
I hope no one has presented this idea yet, but appologies to all if they have. This idea concerns combat.

Perhaps when the PS characters are capable of using weapons, a stone construction, collusseum style arena could be fashoned. The arens could, as a minimum be a circular of oval construction based on the roman styles with  360 degree bleacher style seating, concessions (a place for jobs) a seperate practice area and a main field of battle called \"The Haceldama\" where individual and group combat could occur between rivals. Others could then observe the conflict safely as spectators. (Devs could also use this area to work out the kinks of individual and group combat).

Note: The Haceldama was an actual place. The name means \"The field of blood\". It was a potters field (place to bury the poor) outside of Jerusalem. It is reported that when Judas returned the 30 pieces of silver to the temple preists after the betrayal of Jesus of Nazereth, they could not put it in the treasury because, being blood money, it was unclean. They therefore bought a nearby field to bury the poor dead who came to Jerusalem on pilgramage. I am unsure if this place currently exists.

Comments?
Thanks,
Sensotaka

To explain The above pick (just in case you don\'t click the link).
Such a place is in development and has been around for a while. If you have not read around on the forums you should start to it. There is a lot of great information out there and I\'d hate to see you getting Flame broiled to early in your career.

P.S. Welcome to Planeshift!

The colesium does not actually exist yet, as those pictures are just renderings. But it will exist in the near  future (I hope), and I am looking foreward to it.
