Are the Rules Getting Reboot’d? If so, What Would You Like to See?
Since it looks like the reboot won’t be backwards compatible w/ the original in other ways, is there going to be fundamental rewrite to the rules as well, or discussion of such?
I’m hoping to see at least some iterative design improvements that can’t really happen to a game while keeping continuity.
As for bigger overhauls, I would like the distinction between the disciplines feel less arbitrary. Right now, they’re all the same stat w/ different coats of paint—not even broad strategies like M:tG colors (which is probably better saved for the tribes anyway). For example: Speed is the primary initiative determiner (with Locations providing tie-breakers), Power influences base damage for Attacks, and Wisdom affecting how many draw and/or your hand size. Not sure what Courage would do in this paradigm, though, but there only being one arbitrary stat like that doesn’t feel nearly as obnoxious (and is probably even a good thing).
