The Boys - Game Over - Marissa wins!

[Hazardwaste]

to be honest i think poison ivy was honestly the only thing i had issues with. everyone else was fine. just the fact it was unblockable you know

[Marshal]

yes things should be intensely clear, i think it happened a couple times where intent was assumed to be one way but actually the other

[Marshal]

poison ivy/Tree of Life were by far the most powerful ones (barring the really early ones like paranoia and the one really OP one garfooled pulled

[tutuu]

and what did you think about the action system change? (in the first game there were 2 rounds. in the 2nd round you could only bet on 2 powers you previously bid on)

this was 1 round, bid unlimited on 8 powers

did that feel better? and/or do you think something else could be done thats better?

[Marshal]

seriously tutuu if garfooled didnt instadie, there would be so much tilt abt that burn penalty “”“minor”"" power

[Marluna]

yeah, stacking the same powers, would bring a favor to one side.

I would appriciate mor variety, but not allowing stacking.
(I had like +20 damage from the same minor powers only, which meant I needed to use 20 less energy to attack others if I didn’t have insect swarm.)

[tutuu]

initially i planned on every minor power being unique but then i realized i had to design 100+ unique powers and then i made this face:

[Hazardwaste]

i think if you gave each minor power a set amount of times it could appear it might be better.

Like poison ivy can only appear 3 times in a game

[Hazardwaste]

i think 1 poison ivy is fine. but as marluna stated once it stacks it fucking hurts

[Marluna]

repetition isn’t bad, stacking is.

[Marshal]

honestly, the same like 8 minor powers was actually super chill i thought it brought a fun dynamic

def nerf tree of life tho

[Marshal]

and poison ivy, which sucks because its at least 8 dmg unblockable to a player

[Hazardwaste]

i liked the current bidding system you did.

i think it brought early manipulation into play. over hyping abilties you didnt want and under hyping others

[tutuu]

how would you implement a system with repeating minor powers but not allowing to stack them? if no valid targets people just sit with them and holster them?

[Marshal]

it didnt matter who you chose, just that you did it. so your willingness was strongly appreciated

[Hazardwaste]

maybe make it procedual?

every extra stack of posion ivy is less potent

second stack is -2 health
third stack is -1

[Hazardwaste]

so worse case you are hit with 6

[Marshal]

mmmm i like this

[tutuu]

and one more question - did you guys like the rng from the drawing of minor powers or nah? i thought the rng could be fun to scratch the gambling itch, but maybe frustrating in long form forum games?

[tutuu]

ill note this, i like it
