Proposal: Hell on Wheels

Unpopular, 3-7. Josh

Adminned at 06 Jul 2021 09:04:55 UTC

Add a new sub-rule to the rule The Crypt of Dracula, called Spatial Warping:

Spatial Warping is a power action with a cost of 7. When a Vampire Lord carried out a Spatial Warping action, they must select two Lit Ordinary Rooms and switch their characteristics (name, description, effects, glyphs/sigils, and denizens). A Room with a Sepulchre may not be selected for a Spatial Warping action unless the Vampire Lord carrying out that action is the owner of that Sepulchre.

Add a fine treasure to the list in Treasures:

Shattered Silver Mirror: Richardo immediately uses this to perform the effect of a Spatial Warping action, randomly selecting both rooms from the pool of all lit rooms.

Bit of a shame to randomly break apart rooms that were built in direct reference each other, like the Cliff Edge that overlooks the Tenuous Bridge, or the (=‘_’ ) that something something the /_/.

But fun to maybe rewrite descriptions based on what happens when suddenly a subterranean river is running through the slaughterhouse of (, (#) (=)! or whatever

is it intentional that the first section of text doesn’t specify Lit Ordinary Rooms? also it definitely costs too little here, i think it shld either be a v high flat number (~10) or based on both rooms’ shadow totals
(i also don’t like that bloodthirsty vampires can perform it bc it seems strategically v strong)

overall, reverse greentick (red-x?). the silver mirror alone cld be interesting maybe? but i really like the way that the crypt is this heavy solid thing rn, and the only way we can directly destroy one another’s works is by putting ourselves at risk of becoming dust! i like the puzzle of undermining & disrupting eachother instead of outright attacking enough that i’d fully support the removal of the aggressive-sepulchre-collapse-strat even tho i think i’m the one who’s used it most :0

This is much, much too cheap. People are spending a lot more than 4 to put lethal rooms in good locations.

Just like lemonfanta, I’m inclined to against-vote regardless, but if it is going to pass, the cost needs fixing.

Have upped the cost and removed it from Bloodthirsty vampires.

lol I like the idea of the bunny’s head getting ripped apart from the rest of the body and randomly placed elsewhere in the crypt
