Proposal: Sound the Cannons

Number of Kaiju not voting against is less than quorum. Failed 3 votes to 3 by Kevan.

Add a subrule to “Alliances” called “Nemeses”:-

Each Kaiju may have a Nemesis, being another Kaiju (or idle Kaiju), and this is tracked privately by the Attendant. Kaiju have no Nemeses by default, and being a Nemesis is not automatically reciprocal. If a Kaiju has no Nemesis, it may select one by sending a private message to the Attendant to this effect.

When the Attendant calls a meeting of the Kaiju Court, every Kaiju who has a higher Prestige than their Nemesis gains 5 Prestige, and every Kaiju who has a lower Prestige than their Nemesis loses 5 Prestige.

Needs more intrigue.

Idle Kaiju have no Prestige. If an active Kaiju’s Nemesis is idle, is their Prestige higher, lower, or neither?

More pertinently, is this not a rich-get-richer mechanic, where it’s always tactically sensible to have the Kaiju with the lowest Prestige as your Nemesis? Doesn’t that mean that the weakest Kaiju is always going to get dumped on by every other player?

I would presume that having no Prestige is essentially Null. As Null is not a number, a comparison could not be done.
