For starters, I need to rethink the Postcount idea...
I do believe it should be a valid victory condition, but I can't decide how best to model it in a fair way.

Also the names of the stats. Here is a description of what stats there are.

1: The players "Life force". Directly determines victory.
2: The number of cards a player can play a turn
3: The cost a card has that must be payed.
4: The limiter placed on the posts that can be equipped to a character card.
5: The attacking stat
6: The defending stat


Different names for all the above need to be determined.

What's wrong with insanity and willpower?

Well, nothing is wrong with that...But some of the stats need their own names.

I like the postcount system we've got. Just need to playest to get the numbers right.

Yah, balance is a tricky thing to maintain, and will require a lot of playtesting.

Uninspired example (I was a bit limited based on what pictures I had on this computer):

edit: The boxes for sanity/insanity/spirit cost aren't labeled.

Ermmm..... I think Drek's being unfortunately shortsighted here (No offence, bud).

Sure, make as many cards as you want, but ony for the purposes of testing his program. Remember kids, bugtesting is important. Most if the time.

Oh, yeah. The cards I'm making aren't serious suggestions, they're just examples. I'm choosing the effect mostly at random. It's probably broken.

Uh, yeah, I'll see what I can do about the stat boxes.

Also, in a deck which would bounce that card, it would be quite broken.

*shrug* Like I said I wasn't thinking about game balance, just making a card...

Oh... and does the color option mean anything?

Do non-creature/avatar cards have willpower/insanity?

The, uh, colour option changes the background colour of the card.

And the second point is something I intend to address once we actually have, for definite, got the rules figured, sorted and ready to print.

Not literally of course. Oh, and are you happy with the way the cards look? I used a photoshop filter to create that effect around the edges of the card.
Oh, and the program has been editted to solve that GUI issue. If you're not happy with this layout, I can change it again tomorrow. Same link as before.

Go ahead, if you really want.

Keep in mind the effect terminology. I'll be adding the following to that later, when I re-write the rules again.


Burn X: Inflict effect damage to the specified player. Different to payment costs for effect.
Burned: When a player has effect damage inflicted to them. For example, "Whenever a player is burned, that player draws one card."


Oh, and the, uh, program has been editted so that certain stats don't appear on the cards. All that really needs doing is sorting out the GUI for better ease of use.

Why not just call it damage? Less explanation required that way...

Sorry, I've been taking a break on this just now, as I've been working on improving my understanding of how to get two computers to communicate with each other programmatically. I have made great strides in this, and can probably write up the system for playing each other online. Once the rules are actually finalised, of course.
