Title: Would you play a FS2 Card Game?
Post by: Dark RevenantX on May 09, 2006, 07:02:34 pm
  I have started on a new revised FS2 Card Game, hopefully without the awful flaws of my previous two tries.  I have really gone toward simplifying it more than I had in the past, and I think that I did a good job.  The numbers are small (gasp), but that also means that the difference between those numbers is huge.  That means that it's hard to balance.  In order for it to turn out right, people WILL need to play it.  Hopefully, with the new boards, we can play it online here, at the forums (although slowly).  My question is, if I were to make a FS2 Card Game, would you want to play it?  I am not saying WILL play it, I am merely saying WANT to.

Also, I have access to both a Mac and a Windows machine, so I have all the resources I could ever need software-wise.

I'm going to make it despite what you say, but it's always good to hear "constructive" suggestions...

Don't worry.  There would be many legal issues if I sold it.  It's going to be 100% free.

So have you decided what the rules are going to be yet or is that in the making too>?

I have formulated temporary rules.  The game will probably be in the form of a board game.

Of course, the rules will definitely change over time until I finish...
