Proposal: The Great Graph of the Sea
Timed out and failed, 4-3. Josh

If the proposal “Peaks and Steepes” passes, this proposal does nothing.
Add a new rule called “Aspects” with the following text
All Islands have a number of Aspects, which are all game state values which are non-negatives integers that are tracked in their own columns on the Great Sea page.
Aspects may have a list of Requirements, which are other Aspects. For each Aspect (the Supply), an Island’s Demand for that Aspect is calculated by adding up N * R for each other Aspect (the Draw), where N is Island’s value for the Draw, and R is the number of times the Supply appears in the Draw’s list of Requirements
If an Island has any Aspect (The Supply) for which the the Demand exceeds their value for that Aspect, the Island is said to be Unsustainable. If an Island is Unsustainable, any Island may Repair the island by reducing the value of an Aspect (the Draw) for that Island by one provided that a) the value of the Draw is at least one and b) The Supply is included in The Draw’s list of Requirement
Reword “Growth” as follows
All Islands have an Aspect called Land, which has no requirements and defaults to 5.
All Islands have an Aspect called Foliage, which has a requirement of Land and defaults to 0.
Add the following Step to atomic action performed when carrying out an Island’s turn, after “Selectively carry out some, all or none of the Optional Action”
* Ensure their Island is not Unsustainable by Repairing their Island as necessary
If Peaks and Steepes passes we need to rework this so that “Land” is your total Land, and then you can split it up (So have something like Land 8, Terrain: {3,0,5}). Didn’t want to work that out here, if people like the idea but also like Peaks and Steepes we can try this idea again later.
Goal is to make it so that we could say, fill our Islands with either Foliage or Water both of which require land. It also then enables chaining, so we could add Life which depends on having both Foliage and Water.
