	Introduction This is a TWEWY-themed game (of course) inspired in part by the board game Risk. For those unfamiliar with it, Risk is a strategy game in which the players compete for control of the world’s countries with the ultimate goal of world domination. Similarly, the players in this game take on the role of Harrier Reapers fighting over control of Shibuya’s separate Districts in an effort to Jack Shibuya and attain the rank of Composer. At your disposal are the multitudes of different Noise, which you will summon and direct throughout Shibuya to eliminate your adversaries. Game Progression Each turn, or Day, of the game, players PM the GM (that would be me) with the actions they wish to take during that day. There are three separate actions, and players may perform one of each: Dispatch: Summon a Noise or Support Reaper Move: Instruct one of your Noise to Move to an adjacent District Pin: Use a Pin you own to activate its Psyche Districts Controlling all the Districts of Shibuya is the ultimate goal of every player. Districts under your control are the only places you may summon Noise, and you are eliminated from the game if you no longer control any Districts. Some districts even bestow special privileges upon whoever control them. Each player begins the game with three Districts. Soul Soul is the resource that allows you to perform particular actions in the game, such as summoning Noise, deploying Support Reapers, or using Pins. Each District has a set Soul value assigned to it, and at the end of each Day a player’s Soul reserves are increased by the total value of all the Districts they control. Each Players starts the game with five Soul. Noise A player may use their Dispatch action for the Day to summon a Noise to one of the Districts they control. In order to summon a Noise, you must have enough Soul to cover its Cost. Noise have different Power rankings and Abilities that effect their performance in combat with other Noise (more on this later) Boss Noise Boss Noise are special, powerful Noise. They may only be summoned in areas whose Perk allows it. Each Player may have only one Boss Noise in play at a time, and a player may not summon the same Boss Noise twice in one game. Support Reapers Support Reapers prevent the district they are in from being entered or taken over by another player’s Noise. Summoning a Support Reaper costs 4 Soul, and an additional 4 Soul is spent for every day they remain active. Support Reapers may be dismissed without using up an Action for the day or any amount of Soul. If you cannot pay the cost at the start of a day, then the support Reaper is automatically dismissed. A Player may only use three Support Reapers per game. Movement Your Movement action for a Day is used to move a Noise you control from one District to another adjacent to it (Support Reapers cannot be moved). If the District is unoccupied, it becomes yours. If it is occupied by another of your own Noise, then that Noise moves to where to approaching Noise previously was. One of your own Noise may freely be in a District with one of your own Support Reapers. Engagement When two or more Noise attempt to occupy the same District, they enter an Engagement. Whichever has the higher Power Ranking is the victor, and the loser(s) suffer(s) Erasure. In the event of a draw, no Noise is Erased and they all remain in their original areas. Pins Pins may be attained as a result of certain areas’ perks, and cost Soul use; their effects vary. During the game, your opponents may see how many Pins you own, but not which Pins those are. Alliances Anything goes. You may form whatever sorts of agreements you want with the other players, and may discuss them in-thread or via PM. Keep in mind that alliances are not enforced by the rules. Winning and Scorekeeping If at any time the number of Districts you control is zero, you are eliminated from the game. You win by being the Reaper standing. Points are award by the following: Last one standing: 5 Last one eliminated: 3 Erased: 1 If only two players remain in the game, they may agree to Stalemate, and each receive 4 points. If three or more players remain, a player may choose to Retreat, and receive 2 points. Currently, points are only for keeping track of rankings (i.e., bragging rights). Signing Up This is a game for four to six players. When signing up, pick a color from one of Neo’s default color tags to represent you in the game. Also list five Districts you would like to control, in order of priority. If two people request the same District, then it will go to whoever listed it higher. If priority is equal, then first come, first served. You will only be given three Districts; I’m asking for five so you have some alternatives in place should some your first three get taken.

Ah, that's still left there from when Movement and Engagement were the same section. snip Y'know, despite me being something of a Grammar Nazi, I actually have next to no idea how English grammar works, I just BS (with some assist from my Wiki-Fu) whenever I think a sentence sounds off. -------------------
