Under Construction

The image that started it all.

As M:TG, S:TH has the equivalent of a library, hand, land area, and creature area.

  • In S:TG, the Library is called the {thing}. You draw one card from it at the beginning if your turn.
  • The Graveyard is split into two fields. The first is the Spent field, which is where things like Plagues, Sabotage, and other consumable cards go. The other is the Decommissioned Field, where destroyed/outdated cards go; things like obsolete advancements, sabotaged labs, and ruined research go here.
  • Decommissioned cards can be reclaimed for half the original cost, in all fields. Herp Derp.
  • You always gain one Research Point at the beginning of your turn.
  • Creature cards are Experiments.
  • Enhancements are Equipment, and cannot be unequipped.
  • Theories and Laws are enchantments and the like.


Each card has one requirement:
Research Points

  • Research Points are gathered by spending Funds in your Laboratory or one of its four Wings.
  • Research Points are always specific to one area of science: Gravity, Economics, Physics, etc.

Your Laboratory is played at the beginning of your first turn. It is always placed face-up on top of your deck before the game begins, and is played before you draw your hand.

To the top, left, right, and bottom of your Laboratory are its four Wings. Each of these can hold one Laboratory Extension which you can then channel more Funds through to gain different things. (What different things, you ask? I have no fucking idea.)

Funds are acquired through Grants and Endorsements. You receive $1 Billion per turn from whatever source you choose (Black Market, Government, Private Sector, etc). Some Laboratories or Lab Extensions produce Research Points for $.5 Billion, some for $2 Billion. It all depends on the strength of the Extension.

Thoughts

Mana is used to play cards relating to your field. Black Hole, Botany, Black Death, AI Revolt, etc. Research Points.

You're only out when you say you're out: If you have free-cost cards that give cash, or allow other cards to be played, fucking do it. You're not out till you say you are, and there's always a chance for a comeback.

That image is going to be a bitch. Perhaps the left bubble is... actually, no, I have no fucking idea why there are two bubbles there. You know what? Fuck the image.

Things to work on

So much oh god.
