Proposal: Making a quick getaway

Proposal failed 5-3-5 - Prince Anduril

Adminned at 24 Nov 2011 05:40:58 UTC

Add the following Route definition as a subrule to the rule “Routes”, placing it such that the subrules are in alphabetical order by title:

Escape

An Escape Route has a Scouting Cost of 8. When a Driver Drives an Escape Route, that Driver may remove any number of Active Routes from his pool of Routes.

Then, rename the title of the subrule “Backalley Route” to “Backalley”, and capitalize the first letter of all occurrences of “driver” and “drives” in subrules to the rule “Routes”.

Wow, are we being inconsistent in the Routes rules.

@Bucky: It’s limited to active Routes, so you have to choose between using and discarding them, and can only discard ones that happened to be in your selection. This is reasonably weak for a route-destroying effect, and I think we should have one.

for I was thinking we’d need something like this eventually.

for The rule Routes states that a driven Route becomes Inactive before the Driver gets the effects. This would mean a Driver could not remove the Escape Route he’s driving, and so it’s not possible to get rid of an Escape Route (other than with another Escape Route, but what would be the point?)

against I still think its too powerful. Making it use active routes makes the luck oif the draw an even bigger factor. Get all your crap routes activate in a round and you’re great for the future.

@ais523:I realize that it reduces your money that turn.  It’s still too powerful.
