Proposal: Taking stock
In “The Break-In”, change
Post a blog entry announcing the end of the Break In, and naming all Burglars
to
Post a blog entry announcing the end of the Break In, specifying the Location of each Artifact, and naming all Burglars
If it is the Planning the Break-In phase and at least five EVCs contain the word “tonight”, then make these changes to both the dynastic and shadow ruleset, rather than just the shadow ruleset.
It feels like a bit of a let-down that when Artifacts get stolen, neither the Burglars nor the Guards discover who stole them. And it’s strange that a Guard can intercept a Burglar and prevent them getting away with an Artifact, but remain unaware that any of that happened (they discover that they caught a Burglar but not whether the Burglar had anything on them at the time). I think the game would be more fun if there were a little more context available for the two sides to celebrate or commiserate as appropriate.
The edited step comes before the step that sets up Artifacts for the next round, so it will report on the Artifacts at the end of the round that just completed.
