new game mode! i call it bomber!
basically, teams fight for control of the bomb distribution unit in the middle, takes the bomb to the barrier control system, blow it up, kill the lord!

commune with the bomb dispensing unit to get a bomb!
damage will interrupt the communing!
once finished communing, a bomb will appear!
1 minute cool down before the next bomb can be dispensed!

both teams are free to grab the bomb! just like the wintersday gift box PvP!
there is a 3 minutes count down before the bomb explodes

teams must take the bomb to the other team’s barrier control system
defending team must stop them!
kill them! take the bomb away!
it takes 2 bombs to destroy the barrier control system.
alternatively, barrier control system health is similar to tower / keep gates health in WvW / EotM before upgrades.

once barrier control system is destroyed, the guild lord will be exposed, kill the guild lord!

player kills are worth 5 points
successful dispensing a bomb awards 3 points (intend to be tie breaker)
250 points awarded for destruction of the barrier control unit
another 250 points for killing the “guild lord” of the map.

okay let me go through each conquest map!

Forest of Niflhel
Keep (north) = bomb dispensing unit
Henge (west) = blue’s barrier control system
Mine (east) = red’s barrier control system

blue lord = Chieftain Utahein
red lord = Svanir

both chieftain and svanir are protected by a bubble barrier.
destroy the respective barrier control systems to engage them.

chieftain is allied with blue team
svanir is allied with red team

chieftain / svanir ’s health is similar to guild lord of legacy of foefire map.

hmmm ok that’s all for now.
other conquest map would have a similar setting.

but would this game mode even work? O_O

So… The entire match will be 10 people fighting at mid for the commune since there’s no side nodes?

Sounds totally excellent. For extra fun, try it in a hotjoin 10v10.

hi karla thanks for dropping by!

well, the side nodes became “home bases” that must be “bombed” but yeah the fight for the bomb at the start would occur at the middle point.

after securing middle, you need to take the bomb to their home point and then blow it up. hmmm any cc will drop the bomb carrier. bomb carrier cannot use weapon skills. i should mention that in the first post.

well, it should be exciting for a 10 vs 10 custom arena hotjoin game.
not sure if it would be tournament worthy or not.

on the other hand, team fortress 2 had lots of really fun game modes though.
