Proposal: The Scenic Route

Passes 6-0. — Quirck

Adminned at 14 Sep 2013 07:42:24 UTC

In the rule “Locations”, replace “The available Locations are: The Abode, The Silent Bay, The Dark Forest, The Ancient Temple, The Extinct Volcano.” with:-

Each Location is within a Region, which is either the City, the Plains or the Mountains.  The available Locations are: The Abode (in the City), The Silent Bay (in the Plains), The Dark Forest (in the Plains), The Ancient Temple (in the Plains) and The Extinct Volcano (in the Mountains).

And replace “As a Daily Action, an Apprentice can change his Location to another chosen Location by spending X Energy, where X is equal to one added to the absolute value of the Distance of their prior Location subtracted from the Distance of the chosen Location. The Abode has a Distance of one, The Dark Forest three, The Silent Bay three, The Extinct Volcano three, and The Ancient Temple five.”, if it exists, with:-

As a Daily Action, an Apprentice can change one of his Locations to another chosen Location by spending X Energy, where X is the Distance in miles between those two Locations. The Distance between two Locations in the same Region is 1 mile; the Distance between a Location in the Plains and a Location in the City or Mountains is 3 miles; the Distance between a Location in the City and a Location in the Mountains is 5 miles.

Rewording RaichuKFM’s “Moving” proposal, for clarity’s sake, and restoring the lost detail about changing “one of” your Locations - we can potentially have several.

Hmmm, I’m not sure if I like that the Volcano is far away, I preferred having the three elemental Sites at the same distance and the Temple further away. But, I like the wording and the ease with which we could add new Locations.

Oh, I misread that, I didn’t realise RaichuKFM’s absolute value equation was repeating the Locations in a different order. Well, we can switch them back if and when we define “elemental Sites” as actually doing anything.

for Is it really such a bad thing if the Fire/Water/Nature group is further differentiated?

That’s what I’m wondering too.

for I’m not against differentiation, just we already have power tiers in the Parameters section, so why redefine them?
