Which direction should Faction
War go? The GMs have two options for you.
Because
the dust has settled, and Goldenblood is over! Central City
Authority players were able to secure victory in a three-way battle
against Neon Knives and the Troika players.
The
latest version of Faction War saw a range of weaponry, mounts,
persuasion tactics, and terrain features deployed. Next game should
allow for veteran and new players to join up & play- mods will
announce when they’re kicking it off:
But
first- thank you to the moderators who took on GM-ing
responsibilities for the last half of Goldenblood. I had fun
developing the Trinity system to this point, but lacking the time to
participate with day-to-day gameplay, fine tuning is better left in
the hands of capable veterans.
The
Faction War mods have presented two pathways for game development:
One:
Add
more detail to the game mechanics, and create a deeper roleplay
experience. This would require more player time investment in
learning the rules, and possibly limit the player count to more
manageable group sizes.
Two:
Simplify
the mechanics to create more of an interactive board-game experience.
It would be easier for new players to jump in, and require less
investment to participate, possibly accommodating a larger group.
Mechanics would be robust, but the trade off would be mechanical
nuance and depth.
How
to decide?
I
think it’s your call. You folks will be the ones playing, let’s
ensure you get the experience you’d like best.
So,
fire up that clicker, and vote in our poll!
Should
Faction War veer more towards a deep roleplay experience, or towards
an interactive competitive board-game experience?
