Kingdom Hearts II Organization War

This may sound a bit dorky, but it's actually really fun.

Me and my sister were super bored one time while we were waiting at the train station (unlike Central Station at Twilight Town, they don't serve ice cream in random barrels that look like trashcans--bummer) Anyway, I just happened to have my cards with me (I always carry around a deck anyway) so we decided to play some card game to take our mind off of the wait.

I'm sure if you play any basic card games you've heard about the game 'War' where each person gets half the deck and you flip cards, then the person with the highest card wins and gets both cards, but if you both pull the same card you have a 'war' and flip over three cards face down, then a fourth one face up--then base the winner of the war on who has the highest card...same thing repeats if its a tie again. The game ends when someone has all the cards--(but I'm sure most everyone knows how to play this game)

Anyway, we were playing and it gets pretty boring after a while because the games usually take forever---that was when we came up with a neat idea. There are 13 different cards--Ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, J, Q, K....right? And, because the Organization has 13 members, we decided to say that each person accounts for each card in reference to their numbers. The only ones really without numbers were
Ace for Xemnas, Jack for Marluxia, Queen for Larxene (which worked out oddly well considering she is the only girl) and King for Roxas (he IS the only member who technically survived)

Then, we made up our own list of who was more powerful than who--just based on our own preference for the characters and who survived the longest. I don't have the list with me, but i remember that for strongest we had Roxas (because, again, he is the only one still alive at the end) then Xemnas (obviously because he is the superior) then I think Xigbar and Saix...I remember that we had Vexen at the bottom of the list though. Just...all things considered he was never very hard to beat...and...he kinda died first...

Anyway, that was just our personal opinion, but If you want to play this game you can make up your own power chart---the fun part was just actually playing the game and seeing who was fighting who. (It was pretty funny when Axel would kill Vexen or something like that)
It's also more brain challenging than regular war, because you have to remember the organization numbers as well as who is stronger than who and be able to match it up fairly fast--much more thought involved than just seeing which number is higher.
It's also funny to see the looks on the faces of people who see you playing. To them, it makes no rational sense as to why a 2 can beat a 4, a King can beat anything, and why we burst out laughing every time an 8 and a 4 get drawn together.
Anyway, just a fun little suggestion if you are ever bored. Though, I wonder what list of power anyone else would put all the members in...it's bound to be different person to person.

 

Hmm interesting

 

Thats not dorky! Its kewl! :D

 

Sounds like fun!
It would be cool if the Organization was on the cards....
To Photoshop!

 

This idea is BEYOND awesome! I can totally imagine the org in deck card style, with only the symbols being the different. And lol, 8 vs 4 sounds funny. :3 Poor Vexen..

I know that someone on DA drew KH cards, but that was most of the popular characters intertwining on the same card. (Sora-Roxas, Kairi-Namine, Cloud-Sephiroth etc) - and there's a Russian DA member who drew KH tarot cards, and people have her permission to colour them. I'll definatly give it a go, it might inspire me to draw the org idea you guys were playing.

 

Whoever decided that was dorky needs to be slapped. This is the only way I'll ever play War again XD.

 

Here's what I think of Org 13 WAR:

I wish this was a minigame in KH2 and CoM. that would have been awesome. But, I think Luxord covered the cards part already. I can imagine Xemnas being the Ace of Spades, no sh*t.

 

Well, at least it's either Xemnas or Roxas who'd be the Ace of the deck - it depends on how you value the Ace and the King card.

The 14th member can be the Joker. :x

 

Or Demyx :)

 

Wow this is pretty kool, now if only we would have a KH character war along with it...

 

If any of the Organisation would be a Joker it'd be Axel since you never know which side he's on... >:3 But I suppose if they're just gonna be numbers, 14th = Joker. A new challenger has appeared!!

 

Sounds pretty cool, but you'd need some Organization cards to go with it.

 

Nah, man, Roxas is the King of Hearts. No f*ckin' sh*t.
Xemnas is definatelly the ace of spades.

 

Does it matter if it's heart or spade in this war game? *if that's the case, Luxord and Marluxia would have been clovers, hands down*

 

Very clever....

Anyway Organization War...Interesting...

 

True dat.

I don't think it matters much at all really. For a fact, I think it matters less about what type of card they are, hell, there's only 13 of them!

 

If anything, the red cards would probably be directed at the good guys while the black ones are directed at the villains. To make the whole deck have one character for each single card you'd need to add the Disney characters as well. *imagines Maleficent as Spade Queen*

 

Ew, dude, just ew.

 

i'll try that!^^

 

sounds fun ^^
