Seven more cards, plus the
back for cards in the players' decks.
Click, or something. |
On the one hand, I
question the usefulness of a card like Nightcaps. On the other hand,
I don't want everything to be average and homogeneous. Maybe a clever
player will find a great use for it. When a Frenzy is applied to any
card, I should think, the stats are always up in the air.
Speaking of Frenzies, I'm
considering adding some sort of “spy” mechanic so a player can
reveal the Frenzy of another player without Crusading and risking
anything. Maybe.
Academic gets its
Endurance stat changed from -1 to +0 for consistency with similar
cards.
Aetherworld is another
Location where the simple special rules (Crusaders gets +1 Endurance)
would do well elsewhere, so I'll consider where else I can put it
(though likely not a Spiker).
Promised I would get to
player deck backs. Similar to Location Backs, but of course without
the icon, rotated, and with different art (same artist). I also
decided to add my name to the back of the card, as well as the
Location card backs (because vanity).
Burial Rites gets a major
overhaul. Firstly, I changed it so you can play it when any
Crusader is killed, not just
your own, so it's easier to play. The old text used to say that
players can't Frenzy “Until the end of the Round, or your next
Turn, whichever comes last.” Well, the Round would now end
immediately, since a Location card gets flipped only when a Crusader
is killed, and it's possible that the player who plays Burial Rites
might be first in Turn Order on the next card, so it accomplishes
nothing. Now, it affects the entire next Round. I also mentioned
that you play it after a Crusader is killed but before
a Location card is flipped, because if you were to hand on to it til
after the Location card is revealed, it might not be a Rogation at
all, but a Spiker, and if it's the fifth Spiker, you wouldn't be able
to play it at all. Lastly, I made it a Spiker requirement of 0-4, to
say that there's no time for Burial Rites the further down the Spiker
hole we go.
Carnival simply gets its
flavor text changed, so it's more devious, less flippant. But as I
work out the nature of Spikers, I'm considering making a few current
Locations into Spikers, and replacing the locations with some other
ideas.
