Ladies and Gentlemen, as you know we have something special for you at
Birdland this evening. A recording for Blue Note Records...
Let's take it back to the concrete streets, original beats and real live MC's...

Coldstone is for creating RPG's.
What you're describing sounds more like a strategy (or RPS) to me.

V-16 Twin Bombers: $8,000,000
1 Aircraft Carrier: $4,000,000,000,000
Battlecruiser loaded with marines: $8,000,000,000,000
The look on Bin Ladin's face when we get him: Priceless...

no one ever called Baldur's Gate an RPS.

In a sort of related question, can you script a bunch of NPCs to follow the player around?

well judging from the fact that it's impossible to have NPC's really fight one another, then no. You can't summon monsters to fight, and you can't have a party. It's made for one hero.

you are so wrong...not by conventional methods but with the proper scripting this
Summon monsters, and people who follow you around is possible.
with the correct method, mine , you can have guests not party members, basically 'friendlies' like in Final Fantasy Adventure
and Tactics (who remembers ALgus,Gafgarion,and Delita ??)

Ummmm, did you READ the rest of the topic? Don't you understand the miracle that has just occured? Chill is a hero, haven't you heard? Hey that rhymed! Anyway, that's wonderful news that there is a way to have people there to help you. I'm going to go do some ballet to express my feelings metaphorically and gracefully because words aren't good enough.

Don't build a shrine just yet there buddy, there is no guarantee that his theory will even work (tho I have faith in forced parties) .
Even more, without the release of Coldstone, it's practically impossible to prove or demonstrate one's method (and stay on Ambrosia's good side).

I'm just going by what the Mods say, and since they've said that with enough scripting you could do certain things that was normally not possible and well, they didn't say the same about party members.. so....

I've been around quite a while lorenoth. Although probably not as long as you. I haven't been posting for nearly as long as I've been listening. Anyway, what I've heard from the mods is that they aren't sure, and it would require a little bit of thought and scripting.
Anyway there is no proof of this either way. We'll have to wait for CS's release. 
Kireck: Although I'm not speaking "on chill's behalf," I do believe he has (or had) the beta.

No what I ment was a party. Must I use this awful example: Pokemon, you carry up to 6 monsters with you. Can you make so it looks like the NCP kill each other, like they walk up to each other and one dies.
