Going to add a rule to help with the deadline buff and debuffs:

You can choose to have your partner's turn skipped.

Going to allow you to make one more.. Special card:

You can make a card to represent your Mech.
1. Title: Mechs name, badass nickname for your mech.
2. Subtitle: Mech.
3. You may lower a stat to raise another:
Move
Def
Range (melee attacks not affected, needs 2 to +1)
Damage
Hand size (increment of 2)
Endurance (increment of 5, can't be + if Def is.)

You can only raise or lower a stat by one point, no more. You can modify many different stats however. Your card can have no modifications.
4. This would also be a good opportunity for some flavor text.
As soon as you submit this card you can apply the benefits to your turn.
This card will be revealed as soon the enemy knows all your other cards.
(if you increase your hand size, you will draw an extra  2 cards next turn, if you decrease it you should discard 2 extra cards to make room)
You must have the card in by the end of the turn, or you forfeit the chance for modifications.

Not sure what to use for an image? *head scratch*
Well you could probably come up with something better but here are some ideas, take em or leave em:

...well I tried. See if YOU CAN DO ANY BETTER! See! Do it. I dare ya.

You put Siege Titan at D4 instead of D3. It should have been on top of a cliff and out of range of both attacks. Other than that, turn looks good.

I locked Green Team thread temporarily, Orange Team please dont post yet. I also moved LanceLock incorrectly (sorry, still getting used to this myself) any other errors? Thanks for catching it quickly.


Endurance is damage threshhold roll. See "taking damage" in rules.

Spoiler: Original (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Revised Version (click to show/hide)

Alright I tried to quickly come up with the best middle ground.
As several Green Team attack cards are revealed, I let them succeed or fail as they did originally even if the new locations are out of range. (think of it as a one-time buff)
SeigeTitan is now where he wants to be.
Both teams will get a +12hr leeway to their turn this round.

(did I miss anything? I hope I didn't miss anything.)

Not that I noticed, but I'm not really paying too much attention anyway. By the way you phrased the range stat, it implies that you can increase stats multiple times(assumedly with equivalent decrease), is this true? Working on mech card now either way.

Sorry I was unclear: you need to sacrifice from two other stats to increase range by 1.

(lowering it still only frees 1 point)

okay, putting the mech card on hold until tomorrow because I'm about at my wits end with this new fucking update firefox rolled out that claimed to double the speed and instead has made it 50% slower at minimum. I can PM you what I want the stat changes to be, but the actual card CAN'T be done within the next twelve hours, even though I started work on it eight hours ago and FINISHED work on it an hour ago, literally every single FUCKING time I get close to finishing it, SOMETHING happens with this hellfuck browser that stops me.

I need to calm down again.

To clarify, when you said it was a good time to add quirks to our mechs, did you mean statistical variation, or the kind of rules text that goes on a lot of cards?

These are just for stat quirks.

I really can't answer that poll. Why can't patchwork horror powered by mad science coexist with sculpted perfection powered by rule-of-cool?

Sounds like Pickle Rick.



RAM you broke some [design] rules but I'll let it slide. tee hee

This game is just as experimental as Redneck Mechs was. These are really essentially promo cards we're all playing with.

I have a sinking suspicion we will need to make one replacement. One of our pilots... Is chasing a laser pointer dot or something...

It's not fair to their partner.
