Proposal: There’s No Time Like Home

Times out 4-5. Adminned by Rodney.

Add a new item to “Inventory”:

Temporal Anchor (TAXX): Each Temporal Anchor is tied to a single Dynasty (indicated in its key). A Time Monk may obtain a Temporal Anchor by spending 2 Chronotohms and substituting their Occupied Dynasty for ‘XX’ in this item’s key. A Time Monk holding a Temporal Anchor for a Dynasty is always subject to the Dynastic rules of that Dynasty.

This changes a Time Monk’s occupied dynasty to whatever the item’s key is, but the item’s key is determined by the time monk. Ergo, this means Time Monks can now travel to a specific point for 2 Chronotohms. Since I’m new to the game, I can’t exploit the specific dynastic rules yet, so I vote against.

against just because of ambiguity.

for Where’s the ambiguity? “substituting their Occupied Dynasty for ‘XX’ in this item’s key” seems clearly one-way, and the right way, as I read it.

for Right. You can’t win in the dynasty unless you occupy it, so I fail to see the problem.
