If that day come

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

…to buy that deckard?

[doomlightning (The Invisible Aztec Dodo Overgod of Thrive and everything else. Semi-professor of botany and avid plant and bacteria abuser.)]

Yap!

I Dont say it’s impossible, but you know that if the stars align, it will not come anytime soon

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

So we’d need to be lucky for it to NOT be released soon?

[doomlightning (The Invisible Aztec Dodo Overgod of Thrive and everything else. Semi-professor of botany and avid plant and bacteria abuser.)]

Maybe yes maybe no, i don’t have the cards to answers that

I should learn how to read tarot cards

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

I’d think you’d already know how to read those…

[doomlightning (The Invisible Aztec Dodo Overgod of Thrive and everything else. Semi-professor of botany and avid plant and bacteria abuser.)]

Technically - you’re absolutely right.

I have experience reading tarot cards, but not to the level of someone who really does it. I think it would be interesting to use them instead of dice as a luck mechanic. I haven’t seen anyone use them as a luck spell and if I can understand in depth how to read these cards, it could be useful to me (for fun of course) for things I didn’t think I could do before.

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

Would you use them in your FGs?

[doomlightning (The Invisible Aztec Dodo Overgod of Thrive and everything else. Semi-professor of botany and avid plant and bacteria abuser.)]

I think so, actually, the more I think about it.

Unlike dice - tarot cards have a spectral range of how to tell a story by luck.

So using this instead of dice can really spice things up.

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

Do you plan to use them in genesis?

[doomlightning (The Invisible Aztec Dodo Overgod of Thrive and everything else. Semi-professor of botany and avid plant and bacteria abuser.)]

Genesis doesn’t use luck so there’s really no point in it. (You can look at the game documentation to see my point. Prove me otherwise if you find anything that could fall under the definition of luck that isn’t a waste of resources)

But it’s very possible as a more interesting replacement and especially suitable for Remmortal - because in the way the game is converted from numbers - it’s very flat and I have to build around that.

In contrast - using these cards whose variations are quite astronomical - can also direct the direction of the story and luck at the same time and that it won’t be relatively similar like with dice - allows for more creativity. (I’ll still use numbers to calculate damage and chance of hitting - because in this I simply use RNG and not dice).

This can enter in the 10th round as a natural process of the game.

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

I see, maybe tarot appearing will be the result of the last humans dying?

[doomlightning (The Invisible Aztec Dodo Overgod of Thrive and everything else. Semi-professor of botany and avid plant and bacteria abuser.)]

Much more than that.
Leaving aside the fact that the ‘real’ humans are finally dead, there are many other reasons - the ‘Intercomic Alliance Project’, interference by the Void beings, the ‘Arms of the Universe’, and yes - the fact that I said that Round 10 will change the formula!!

So it goes pretty naturally as the story and game develop.

Why don’t I go for it, then I’ll go learn how to really use the Tarot and then we’ll talk

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

Will the map still be the same after round 10?

[doomlightning (The Invisible Aztec Dodo Overgod of Thrive and everything else. Semi-professor of botany and avid plant and bacteria abuser.)]

No change to the map in the fundamental sense is planned.

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

I see. I suppose I’ll need to hope the system changes will help my character then.

Maybe after you get better at Tarrot cards, you can give everyone a free read on their future?

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

I am not sure wishing is approved in this forum…

[AnthropocenianAge (𝒜𝓇𝓉𝒽𝓇𝑜𝓅𝓁𝑒𝓊𝓇𝒶 𝓌𝒶𝓃𝓉𝓈 𝓉𝑜 𝑔𝒾𝓋𝑒 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝒶 𝒽𝓊𝑔!)]

What if Revolutionary Games made Thrive-themed Tarrot cards?

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

I think it was suggested some time ago to make a thrive card game of some sort but the idea flopped…
