Ascension Address: Rooooad Triiiiip WOOOOOO Repeal all Dynastic Rules except “Event Types” and “Can Opener.” Set the Special Case rules “Alliances” and “Mantle Limitations” to Active, and set the Special Case rule “Imperial Deferentials” to Inactive; set all other Special Case rules to their default state.

Mischief Managed? Arthexis idles out, and quorum drops to 7. Brendan 12/09/21 0
Story Post: Some have claimed that the Dark One has a weakness. Some even claim that the Stratum of its origin is 1, and that its name begins with the letter A. Some fools should not spread such rumors, lest the baleful gaze of the Dark One fall upon them. All who would seek to usurp the Dark One are already doomed. Brendan 12/04/21 0
A note for players who are not privy to recent Discord discussions Thanks to the speedy passage of “Power,” I was able to take advantage of a clear rules injection exploit as follows: I created a dynastic rule with the name “Solarium,” matching the Power of the Relic I hold I used that rule to give myself a Daily Action power of… Brendan 12/02/21 3 12/02/21
Ascension Address: Sinners in the Hands of an Angry Blog Mortal hands cannot be strong when the Dark One rises. Sometimes an earthly prince meets with a great deal of difficulty to subdue rebels, who have found means to fortify themselves, and have made themselves strong by the numbers of their followers.

A fully public post with no private information Okay, I genuinely don’t understand this: is there any way to send a message through the Communication action that does not violate “No Collaboration?” Even the act of selecting some players to address, and not others, seems pretty easy to interpret as a communication that is “about dynastic gameplay.” Brendan 09/02/21 4 09/03/21

Story Post: Proposta: pokes and Clucky Surely, la casa di Fieri is an honorable house, one in which we may place our trust in one another away from the eyes and ears of others, yes? Brendan 02/25/21 2 02/25/21

Idling I think this dynasty shows a lot of promise but, ironically, isolation time means I have too many other projects going to pay enough attention to the game. Quorum drops to 6. Brendan 04/20/20 0

The Metamorphosis I hereby pass the role of Historian to card. Brendan 08/01/18 1 08/01/18
Noisy Neighbors It looks like card’s enactment of “Not THAT Noisy” didn’t update the ruleset, which led to 9spaceking playing Noisy Neighbors on The Red Plains, which in turn became Hostile toward Trigon. But Hostile as an attitude still doesn’t exist. I’ve corrected the card description and made The Red Plains Suspicious… Brendan 07/25/18 2 07/25/18

Ascension Address: The Last Dynasty Twelve times twelve emperors have held the nomic throne, and with each exchange of power, their sun wanes further. Surviving players are few, and weakened; the best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity. There is a sense of sapping, crumbling. An inkling that the life… Brendan 11/03/16 2 11/03/16
Dynastic Wrap-Up I’ll post an Ascension Address tomorrow, after I think through my current idea.

Deliberastrophe Through the careful attentions of my loyal Scribes, it has become clear that the current reflection of the True Ruleset is insufficiently horrifying. Fortunately, we have uncovered Rule 2.11 from the 108th archived Ruleset, “Deliberations.” Good luck! Brendan 07/13/16 8 07/14/16

Demand: Lazy River NOW the government is telling me that the water in the lagoon has to “circulate” or it will “just go back to being a swamp.” I guess at least we can drop some inner tubes in the channel to the pumping station. Who wants a canal instead of a street? Brendan 05/09/16 1 05/20/16
