MCM battle arenas generally run in the free for all mode. During special moderator run events different modes of play be enforced in different arenas. Some game modes are merely the moderator enforcing specific rules manually, such as last mech standing. Other game modes use special scripts and attachments, such as command point capture. Most events carry the possibility of experience point prizes or free mecha.


Capture The Flag

Command Point Capture

Command points are scattered around the field and two teams vie for control of them. The teams are denoted by special colored. The banners allow for the control of the command points. Standing on a command point switches it to your teams alignment. It takes 30 seconds to capture or de-capture a point. Multiple mechs on the same point switch its polarity faster.

This mode can be played in two fashions, for score or for control. When playing for control, victory is achieved when all the points are controlled by a single team. When playing for score, every few seconds teams have their scores increased based on the amount of control points they control. First team to reach the score limit wins.

Free for All

Free for all is the generalized gameplay style that goes on when no events are planned. Mechs may enter any arena and fire freely upon any mechs present. As with all modes, kills award experience. Kills are also tracked on the MCM website.

Mechs become the game pieces though would have to limit it to ground only, no warp, strife, or JJ. There would be a dedicated dice roller that would be in charge of rolling a die to determine how many spaces each mech could move during their turn.

Others still might end up having mines or a dark matter on it, or a bot to fight. If two mechs were to land on the same space they would have to fight it out.

If a mech is destroyed it gets sent back to the start, or if it becomes unable to move it is stuck there until someone kills them, or the game ends. There would be no support drops of any kind allowed including repair and ammo.
