TL;DR (Too long;Didn't Read)? Too bad. If you can read hundreds of posts on the Forum Games forum, then you should have the ability to read this. ______________________________ Background: Once upon a great long while, Gandalf became bored. So bored that he tried an experiment on what will happen if he divides by zero while playing PC games, playing with Pictochat on the DS, and other things in a great feat of multitasking. Of course when you divide by zero, something horrible happens. Like a portal opening and sending all the characters he played on his DS, PC, and his other tasks. Huh. Unsurprisingly, that happened. Now, the great wizard is asking for you guys' help since his magic isn't powerful enough to undo his crap. He will be waiting for you in an open plain in the State of Idaho in the nation of the United States of America.

Gandalf: Ah, yes, you came. I was getting pretty bored walking around this empty patch of land.
You: Mkay. Now go on and tell me why I have to clean up your crap?
Gandalf: My magic not powerful enough to undo this, what you call, my âcrapâ. This is why I have called you here. You are much perfect for the job. I mean, you were in the army, very intelligent young man/woman, and you look pretty agile.
You: Well... If you say so. (Blushes)
Gandalf: Im not lying either. From the looks of it, you could probably pull this off. But you have to prove it on the battlefield. (Walks to the North) Now, come along.
You: Wait! (Catches up to Gandalf) Where are we going? It's just an endless patch of tall grass.
Gandalf: Just follow me and you will see, my boy.

Breaking The Ice is, in my opinion, a unique kind of forum game which maybe will catch the eyes of non forum-gamers. What this is is basically the Writing Section of the Art, Music, and Writing forum with the Forum Game forum combined to make, what I call, a âStory Gameâ. It is just your everyday âComplete the Objectiveâ game, but with a very important catch and this catch I will tell you later.
How to Play the Story Game: In Breaking the Ice, you will be fighting enemies from PC games, flash, games, and books to vidya (video) games, handheld games, and the Internet. Now, here's the catch. Unlike Destroy The Planet Reborn and Complete the Objective, this Story Game will not always be freestyle (doing whatever you want). You see, sometimes you will be playing on a different format of game style. In somes cases, you will be playing a turn-based format, or maybe a RTS (real time strategy) format, and et cetera. Of course, there will be some moments where you can do a freestyle format. This is only a little preview. Later on in the Story Game, I will tell everyone how to play said format, or any other new thing that pops up. You guys are probably getting sick of my talking, so let's get started! *Start Story Game*
Format: Freestyle Enemy Units: Tri-Virus Total Enemy HP: 500 Weaknesses: Vaccines and Medicine Info: It's the red, blue, and yellow virus combined into a triangle. Allied Units: Outhouse, Nuke Pad (Building completed in 3 turns), Airstrip (Building completed in two turns) Injured: Sonicheroes95 (90 hp left) Dead: N/A Conditions: Sonicheroes95 is sick! Lose 5 hp every turn. Sonicheroes95's fire abilities has increased damage. Mission: Destroy the Enemy!
Wolfman's results: An outhouse it built. You can now use it.
Sonic's results: Hoping you read the OP, there are no trees in the Great Plains in Idaho. But you practiced fire magic on the tall grass which increases damage on fire abilities.
Rick's results: A nuke pad is starting to build and will finish in three turns. A airstrip is starting to build and will finish in two turns. ____________________________________________ Gandalf: Do you see something coming out of The Ice? You: Looks like unoriginal triangle. Gandalf: It looks like the three viruses formed into each other to create such a monster. You: It's just a triangle. With viruses. Looks pretty easy and moves at a slow rate. Let's just hope it doesn't give me AIDS.
