opinions?

[tutuu]

also i’d rather make it so powers that affect targetting (coerce and swapper and lair of evil) dont affect the action of giving a player minor powers but if you guys want to they could be affected by it

[tutuu]

also instead or rounding up or down like i used to and i originally wrote in the OP id like to round to nearest integer in all instances where i need to round

[tutuu]

@tutuu

8. Restart?:

Once per game, during Round 3 or later, remove every player’s Major Powers and give them Health equal to the amount they’ve paid for those bids. Then, have an Auction Phase, identical to the one at the start of the game, for the same Starting Major Powers. (Does not remove, refund, and restock The Greatest Scam power)

i dont know if this will be fun or frustrating for you guys. thats the best i could come up with a top-down design (design an ability around the name restart)

That’s probably the closest thing we can get to the original intention.

Game show Driven: (im not touching this i dont even know what to do here)

Side note: I think you should run the simulation on your end and have that as part of action resolution just in case there’s chicanery to be pulled in the settings.

Also when you play a game of blackjack do you envision 1 hand only or as many hands as you want? If its as many hands as you want the game could be stalled. But we could make it so the game of blackjack plays simultaneously as the round phase goes, and if its not wrapped up by the time round ends just force cancel it

one hand

oh yeah ill run it

[Squirrel2412]

I like that

Would Y in Swapper reset or would it stay the same?

[tutuu]

Reset if another person took it

@ElizaThePsycho

it instead takes effect the next round (including the cost of doing so), and their actions are revealed when they would have been revealed.

im not sure I fully understand this one… so say, for example, player A has lair of evil, and player B targets them with a basic attack worth 60 energy

Does player B have to pay that 60 energy the round they attack player A, or do they pay it the next round? If it’s the next round, are they allowed to go over the amount of normal energy they’d usually use in a round if some of it is towards player A? If so, how does it interact with someone using Swapper?

[Ash]

My understanding is that they’d only pay that Energy next round, and their action gets cancelled if they can’t do so.

[Ash]

You basically learn what everyone plans to do to you and can use the next Round to respond accordingly.

[Marshal]

but can they overspend energy in that case? what if the person who uses swapper, swaps with the Lair of Evil holder? what if the Lair of Evil holder dies before you can use your energy on them

[tutuu]

My understanding is they dont pay the energy next round. They just take the damage. All actions are delayed by 1 round

[tutuu]

Im not sure what they mean by “the cost of doing so” @ElizaThePsycho @Daeron

[Daeron]

Iif you declare that you are attacking the person with player of evil, your energy doesn’t get spent immediately, it gets spent when it would get spent the nex tround

[Daeron]

wait

wiillow uploaded the old version of lair of evil
we literally discussed problems with it that are still present in this version

[Daeron]

lair of evil has an issue where everyone can just declare them doing everything to the person every round and then not do it until they actually do it
