==The Original Base Game==
 
  
−
There is the Hunter Ninja, and the Prey Ninja(s).
+
==RnVBn Ninjas==
−
One person is chosen to be the hunter, the rest are prey.
+
===Host Instructions===
−
The first person to die becomes the new Hunter Ninja, even if
+
*Split into 2 or three teams of ninjas.
−
they were already the hunter.
+
**Team colours are: Red, Blue, Green
 +
***The team members do not display their colours, so they can be teamkilled, or impersonate another team.
 +
**The players are scattered in the play area pseudo-randomly.
 +
*To eliminate a ninja, the player simply tags the opponent first.
 +
**For every teammate killed, subtract 2 points from the team total.
 +
**For every enemy killed, add 1 point to the team total.
 +
***TIP: To make this easy to do, you can make index cards that are 'ID' cards- They tell you who is who, on what team. When a player gets 'killed', they give up their card to the killer.
 +
*After 5/10/15 minutes, The Hunter appears.
 +
**The Hunter is dressed differently, and has obvious markings.(Bright jacket, coloured tape, etc.)
 +
***The Hunter's objective is to kill everyone. He has 10/25/45 minutes to find and tag everyone.
 +
**He is invincible.
 +
*To make the game harder to do, set a time limit.
 +
*Encourage players to be stealthy, and to avoid the social part of it.
 +
*To make the game even harder, do not let the players know which team they are on.
  
−
The Hunter counts to a preset number while prey hide.
+
*Alternatively, you can have the teams start knowing each other, and work together to eliminate the opposition before they are killed by the hunter or the other ninjas/spies.
−
When done counting, the hunter shouts "I'm a ninja!"
 
  
 +
===Player Instructions===
 +
You have been hired by an unknown agency to eliminate all spies in the area.
 +
The opposition force is on a similar objective. Since you have been hired,
 +
you are unsure of your allies. All you know is that you must eliminate the OpFor, avoid any
 +
mercenaries who join the spy battle, and help your teammates.
  
−
All players must remain in the game boundaries.
+
*Tagging a spy will kill them.
−
These boundaries are determined beforehand.
+
**Killing allies has a penalty.
−
 
+
*The Hunter is invulnerable, and can kill you. Avoid them at all costs.
−
 
+
−
The Hunter can use ranged weapons, and at most, a dagger for a melee.
+
==Variants (You can ignore this, if you want)==
−
Prey can use anything, but is suggested for small, concealable weapons.
+
===Classical variant===
−
 
+
The ol' original game, played in broad daylight. Best played at night.
−
 
+
====The rules:====
−
The hunter needs:
+
*Prey are given time to hide.
−
 
+
*Hunter(s) (number of hunters should be proportionate to prey+area- more prey, more area, more hunters.) Look for prey.
−
3 shurikens hits to the front, 1 to the back, 1 to the head, or 5 to the legs/arms. {Best stealth weapon}
+
*Hunters simply tag the prey to eliminate them.
−
 
+
*Any prey eliminated becomes the new hunter, taking the previous one's(') place. Those eliminated in a multi-hunter game just wait until all new hunters have been made.
−
 
 
−
2 blow gun hits to the front, 1 to the back, 1 to the head, 3 to the arms/legs. {Best weapon, best range}
 
−
 
 
−
2 front, 1 back, 3 arms, 3 legs, 9999 head with a melee weapon. {Worst Stealth Weapon}
 
−
to die.
 
−
 
 
−
A Prey Ninja needs just one hit. Yes, the prey needs stealth to win.
 
−
 
 
−
Hunters can have a small, weak flashlight, only when extremely dark.
 
−
 
 
−
==Prey Rules==
 
−
Your objective is to survive for as long as possible, while getting the most points.
 
−
You can hide, and assassinate the enemy, or rely on skills of attacking and an ally to help you.
 
−
 
 
−
 
 
−
==Hunter Rules==
 
−
Try to kill all the ninjas in your patrol zone, hunt them down.
 
−
Avoid combat, as you can die, rely on finding where they are hiding,
 
−
then sneaking up on them.
 
−
 
 
−
==The Point System==
 
−
Killing the opponent(prey can't kill prey, ect.)~1 base point
 
−
 
 
−
Shuriken kill ~ 1 bonus point
 
−
 
 
−
Stealth Kill ~ 2 bonus points
 
−
 
 
−
Strangle/Neck snap ~ 3 bonus points
 
−
 
 
−
 
 
−
(Optional points)
 
−
Prey Survival (Survive 15-30 minutes) ~ 1 point
 
−
 
 
−
Hunter Bloodlust (Kill in 5 minutes) ~ 1 point
 
−
 
 
−
 
 
−
==Tips==
 
−
Ninja Prey:
 
−
all three of the founders have simply went prone on the ground to hide;
 
−
Dyllon hid partially covered by twigs, Tristan lay camouflaged in the
 
−
grass, and Alex lay in the shadows of the grass. The normal human
 
−
doesn't naturally look up or down. Use it.
 
−
 
 
−
Move low, and slow. Tristan caught Dyllon simply because he ran.
 
−
Tristan NEVER would have seen him had he not ran.
 
−
 
 
−
Keep moving, never let your best spot get known.
 
−
 
 
−
Break up your shape. Human forms are not natural. Simply curling up makes you look less suspicious.
 
−
 
 
−
Hunters:
 
−
Check frequently places you've been. Stay away from clearings.
 
−
 
 
−
Go prone and crawl to a hiding place. Wait for the prey to reveal themselves.
 
−
They will. Always.
