Game: DeathMaze

Deathmaze and Citadel of Blood were severely undermined by the fact that there is no real way for anyone to heal. This variant makes sense and makes the games much more playable. Thanks!

Hey. I just got a copy of deathmaze and hopefully getting a copy of citadel of blood soon. I haven't tried deathmaze yet but plan on playing it later today. I was wondering if maybe you could scan a copy of the variants from the magazines you have. I would like to get copies of all the rule variants.

Here's my read on the rules: Wizards take two kinds of damage: the kind from casting spells, and the kind from getting hit in combat. The latter kind may be healed using healing potions in the usual manner, but the former can only get healed when they exit the dungeon. This is only useful for character continuity, when you bring your wizard back into the DeathMaze in later games. One-time games probably don't get much traction out of wizards, but if you manage to buff a wizard up a bit, I imagine they start to hold their own.

Here is what I have. Deathmaze and Citadel of Blood. I have a copy of Moves magazine #51 which has an article of rules variants for Deathmaze. And Moves magazine #54 which has rules variants for Citadel of Blood. If anyone would like to discuss these games please let me know, especially ideas that you have had on expanding them with more weapons, magic items, traps. etc...

Thread: The Paolo Rule: Regaining HPs by Resting

hotspur — 2005-10-15T14:10:57+00:00

Since there doesn't seem to be anything in the rules (short of potions and spells) for regaining HPs for Wizards (and only said potions and spells for non-wizards; a wizard can't heal himself), it is my opinion that there's something missing in Deathmaze. Not to worry; I have confered with another DM fan and we have created this house rule:

The Paolo Rule

"A player character gains 1 HP for every 3 hours of rest. In game turns, the player takes a turn to rest (do nothing). For every turn taken resting, the player(s) must check once on the Wandering Monster table. If a WM appears, the monster's Combat Round precedes the player's Combat Round UNLESS a player is "Posted Guard". Guarding Player Characters do not receive the HP benefit of Resting."

That about says it all. You expend points to cast spells. How do you get them back?

How do WOUNDED characters regain points?

Thread: Session Report: Solitaire Game of Deathmaze using Cyberboard

hotspur — 2005-10-12T14:27:32+00:00

I've started a PBeM (of sorts, since I'm playing myself!) game (solitaire) of Deathmaze, using Cyberboard. The recap and gamelogs are posted (ongoing) starting with this one:

When a new post is added, a link to the next session report is added to the last one.

Got it! Thanks, Phil, you are a mensch!

I've edited the rules, charts and cover and such into a giant PDF, is there interest in posting it?

I've also redone that Cyberboard gamebox (I created the first one) to make it easier to play. Do you guys want me to post it here?

Me too! I'm running a solitaire game on Cyberboard with four characters: two heros, a wizard and a thief. Our very first encounter was with an Evil Wizard, and BANG! The game stops.

Any help finding the missing rules would be most appreciated.

Thanks Phil, yes, that's how I remember it now. A nice guy promised me a paper copy of the rules, when i get it we can split the typing work-- Deathmaze will never die (unlike my characters when they met the vampire)

Cheers

There are actually three sections:

11.0 Wizards and Magic
12.0 Rings, Evil Wizards, and Special Abilities
13.0 Character Continuity

I will endeavor to type these into a text file and post them here as Rules for the Advanced Game.

Ok, it's a long story, I gave away my copy of Deathmaze in a distant past in a faraway country (I'm not kidding ).

I'm trying to reconstruct the game, but the rules posted here on Boardgamegeek are *missing* the last sections of the "Advanced game". As far as I know there should be rules for Wizards & spells, and experience levels.

Following the posted tables, spell rules would be in Section 11, tragically missing.

Does anyone remember enough to help me reconstruct the rules? If *by any chance* anyone has the rules booklet laying around, I hereby volunteer to transcribe the missing sections from xerox copy, jpg, whatever you can send me!

Thank you all in advance, hope someone will someday notice this in the empty msg board
