Snowdrop: Rephrasing of how it works.

{{toc}}
=Ability Prefixes=
Some keyworded abilities may have a prefix in front of it's name, revealing in what zone that ability is valid. Abilities that do have prefixes are only valid in that zone and no other. If an ability lacks a prefix it is due to it either being valid everywhere or it having qualities built in that are already limiting it's scope.

The prefixes are:

*Attacking - this ability is only valid while the creature is in an attacker.
*Blocking - ability is only valid while the creature is defending against an attack.
*Kingdom - this ability is only valid while the creature is in the Kingdom.
*Front - this ability is only valid while the creature is in the Front.

Prefixes are not a part of the ability names.

=Ability Prefixes=
Some keyworded abilities may have a prefix in front of it's name, revealing in what zone that ability is valid. Abilities that do have prefixes are only valid in that zone and no other. If an ability lacks a prefix it is due to it either being valid everywhere or it having qualities built in that are already limiting it's scope.

The prefixes are:

*Attacking - this ability is only valid while the creature is in an attacker.
*Defending - ability is only valid while the creature is defending.
*Kingdom - this ability is only valid while the creature is in the Kingdom.

Prefixes are not a part of the ability names.

=Intro=
Welcome to the Local Design Document for the Original Rules Concept and the Awesome Rules Concept. While the [[General Design Document]] outlines the overall framework for WTactics and tells us what type of games we can develop within the WTactics community the Local Design Document you are viewing right now is a more detailed continuation of it, niched towards two specifc rules system that are under development: The Original Rules Concept, or as we often say in short, the ORC and the Awesome Rules Concept, or the ARC.

If you're interested in development it would be a benefit if you read the [[General Design Document]], then this Local Design Document and finally [[Original Rules Concept|the ORC]] or [[Awesome Rules Concept|the ARC]].

Snowdrop is the lead developer of [[Original Rules Concept|the ORC]] and ngoeminne is lead developer of [[Awesome Rules Concept|the ARC]]. The development process is transparent and done in public. You are always welcome to become a part of the ORC/ARC team or lead your own development of new and different rule system. Either way, please enrich the community with the grace of your presence and feel invited to register in here as well as on the forum to participate in an ongoing discussion or give birth to a new one.

=General=
* We try to follow all the [[General Design Document|General Design Document]] to whatever extent possible.
* Focus on a 2 player game that may be adapte for more players later on.
* Use the table to put a spatial dimension in the game to add a strategic dimension.
* Avoid built in and essential randomness beyond what is expected within the scope of traditional CCG:s.
* Minimize use of player administration & game variables, while balancing that against:
** Maximizing strategical depth and game flow.
** With time, let the player build up the game's tier level of what can be played.
** Playing time ''average'' is 40 - 80 min. A >= 10 rounds game is considered to be long lasting, yet perfectly possible.

=Factions=
* There are five factions as laid out in the [[story|background story]]. Note that these will perhaps have to reduced down into just four if a clear identity can't be found mechanic wise for each and every one, in which case the fifth would be incorporated into the others, broadening them up while keeping their distinct feeling.
* Factions should be asymmetrical as far as possible.
* New factions won't ever be introduced: Subtypes should be used instead as subfactions if needed. We want broader factions with depth instead of plenty of narrow and over-specialized ones.

=Naming=
* Card names in general should be 1) Functional 2) Aesthetically appealing 3) Short, in that order of preferences.
* Creatures tend to have generic & functional ''unit'' names instead of personal ones.
**Example: Elvish Ballerina, Guardian of the Empire, Elvish Archer etc.
* Personal creature names are rare and ''reserved'' for special or renown high tier creatures.
** Example: Daia the Priestess, Inquisitor Marco, General Trevoy, Nicolé Tann
* Naming, including personal creature names, should be set within the theme and lore of the game.

=Creatures=

==ATK & DEF Stats==
* Creature's default, printed attack/defence is usually an integer between 1 to 10, where 10 is ''very rare'' godlike tier of battle damage reserved for max 1% of the total creature pool, and 5 is considered to be very strong.
** Creatures ''can'' have 0 attack (ATK), but not less than 1 defense (DEF) as default value.
* Numbers can never be negative, and there's no upper limit for how high ATK/DEF can become while being modified in game.
* Card stats are adjusted in relation to certain attributes, such as species, faction, abilities etc.

==Types==
*Each creature card is of the ''cardtype Creature''. This is not written out in clear text. Instead it is indicated by the creature template that differs from all other templates in both colour and layout. In addition it has some two unique containers that are only found on it - the ATK and DEF.
*A creature can be of several ''subtypes'', also known as ''creature types''.
*Creature names also double as subtypes. Example: A creature card named "Elvish Archer" entails that it is of the "elvish" subtype as well as the "archer" subtype.
*A creature always has at least one creature type.
*There are no special rules associated with specific creature types. All types that need such rules should be converted into abilities instead, along with reminder text.

==Abilities==
*When designing there are two types of abilities: ''Normal'' and ''minor''. Minor abilities are the ones that have limited effects, while normal are the rest.
**Example: "This creature can't be targeted by Enchantments." vs "This creature can't be targeted." The terminology minor and normal abilities won't be made official to the players via the cards. The wording won't be seen ''in'' the game and is primarily there to help us as designers to sort abilities into different tiers.
*Normal abilities that have the prefix "offensive" ''or'' "defensive" applied to them but are also considered to be minor. Most abilities can be limited that way by having the word "Offensive" or "Defensive" added in front of their keyworded name, as a prefix, to limit when the ability may be used.
**Example: ''Offensive Strike'' is a minor version of the ability called just ''Strike''. It's minor since it may only be used when the creature is attacking.
*Creatures usually have between 0 to 2 normal abilities, with the exception that two minor abilities count as one normal.
*Creatures with more than 2 normal abilities are a rare exception.
*Negative abilities - ''inabilities'' - can be used for balancing reasons to give a creature a drawback.
*All abilities belong to one of four faction related groups:
**Primary: These are faction specific abilities that are unique and only available to that specific faction. About 20% to 50% of the abilities available in the game should be of this type.
**Secondary: Abilities borrowed from a pre-defined "sister faction". About 5% - 10%. Substandard performance.
**Tertiary: Abilities borrowed from a pre-defined "cousin faction". About 0% - 3%. Even more substandard performance.
**General: Abilities that any faction could have. 20% - 30%. Example: Flying.

==Costs==
To calculate a creatures cost one has should take the following into account to get a basic idea of what price in resources ''could be'' appropriate:

*+1 resource cost per normal positive ability, +0.5 resource per minor positive.
*-1 resource cost per normal negative ability, -0.5 resource per minor positive.
*The following should also be added to the resource cost, rounded to zero decimals correctly: (ATK + DEF)/2. Whenever rounding occurs an additional minor skill will have to be added to make up for the 0.5 extra resource cost.
*Out of faction characteristics according to modifiers: Between +0 to +5 resource cost.
**Notice: Out of faction characteristics should be avoided in the game alltogether until we have a large cardpool in order to establish faction identities as clearly as possible from the start. Another reason to avoide such cards is that they are essnetialy bad sibling cards and add nothing to the game.
**+0 resource cost is only given for an out of faction characteristics if the card has other, non-cost related, serious drawbacks instead. If it has not then the resource cost is used steeply to compensate. We try to avoid using the simple resource solution for this in ordet to create more intersting draw backs in the game.
**Example: A Gaian card that would kill target creature instantly is out of character for how Gaians work. Such a card would probably cost +3 or +4 more resource than other factions equivalent.

=Intro=
Welcome to the Local Design Document for the Original Rules Concept and the Awesome Rules Concept. While the [[General Design Document]] outlines the overall framework for WTactics and tells us what type of games we can develop within the WTactics community the Local Design Document you are viewing right now is a more detailed continuation of it, niched towards two specifc rules system that are under development: The Original Rules Concept, or as we often say in short, the ORC and the Awesome Rules Concept, or the ARC.

If you're interested in development it would be a benefit if you read the [[General Design Document]], then this Local Design Document and finally [[Original Rules Concept|the ORC]] or [[Awesome Rules Concept|the ARC]].

Snowdrop is the lead developer of [[Original Rules Concept|the ORC]] and ngoeminne is lead developer of [[Awesome Rules Concept|the ARC]]. The development process is transparent and done in public. You are always welcome to become a part of the ORC/ARC team or lead your own development of new and different rule system. Either way, please enrich the community with the grace of your presence and feel invited to register in here as well as on the forum to participate in an ongoing discussion or give birth to a new one.

=General=
* We try to follow all the [[General Design Document|General Design Document]] to whatever extent possible.
* Focus on a 2 player game that may be adapte for more players later on.
* Use the table to put a spatial dimension in the game to add a strategic dimension.
* Avoid built in and essential randomness beyond what is expected within the scope of traditional CCG:s.
* Minimize use of player administration & game variables, while balancing that against:
** Maximizing strategical depth and game flow.
** With time, let the player build up the game's tier level of what can be played.
** Playing time ''average'' is 40 - 80 min. A >= 10 rounds game is considered to be long lasting, yet perfectly possible.

=Factions=
* There are five factions as laid out in the [[story|background story]]. Note that these will perhaps have to reduced down into just four if a clear identity can't be found mechanic wise for each and every one, in which case the fifth would be incorporated into the others, broadening them up while keeping their distinct feeling.
* Factions should be asymmetrical as far as possible.
* New factions won't ever be introduced: Subtypes should be used instead as subfactions if needed. We want broader factions with depth instead of plenty of narrow and over-specialized ones.

=Naming=
* Card names in general should be 1) Functional 2) Aesthetically appealing 3) Short, in that order of preferences.
* Creatures tend to have generic & functional ''unit'' names instead of personal ones.
**Example: Elvish Ballerina, Guardian of the Empire, Elvish Archer etc.
* Personal creature names are rare and ''reserved'' for special or renown high tier creatures.
** Example: Daia the Priestess, Inquisitor Marco, General Trevoy, Nicolé Tann
* Naming, including personal creature names, should be set within the theme and lore of the game.

=Creatures=

==ATK & DEF Stats==
* Creature's default, printed attack/defence is usually an integer between 1 to 10, where 10 is ''very rare'' godlike tier of battle damage reserved for max 1% of the total creature pool, and 5 is considered to be very strong.
** Creatures ''can'' have 0 attack (ATK), but not less than 1 defense (DEF) as default value.
* Numbers can never be negative, and there's no upper limit for how high ATK/DEF can become while being modified in game.
* Card stats are adjusted in relation to certain attributes, such as species, faction, abilities etc.

==Types==
*Each creature card is of the ''cardtype Creature''. This is not written out in clear text. Instead it is indicated by the creature template that differs from all other templates in both colour and layout. In addition it has some two unique containers that are only found on it - the ATK and DEF.
*A creature can be of several ''subtypes'', also known as ''creature types''.
*Creature names also double as subtypes. Example: A creature card named "Elvish Archer" entails that it is of the "elvish" subtype as well as the "archer" subtype.
*A creature always has at least one creature type.
*There are no special rules associated with specific creature types. All types that need such rules should be converted into abilities instead, along with reminder text.

==Abilities==
*When designing there are two types of abilities: ''Normal'' and ''minor''. Minor abilities are the ones that have limited effects, while normal are the rest.
**Example: "This creature can't be targeted by Enchantments." vs "This creature can't be targeted." The terminology minor and normal abilities won't be made official to the players via the cards. The wording won't be seen ''in'' the game and is primarily there to help us as designers to sort abilities into different tiers.
*Normal abilities that only apply in the offensive ''or'' defensive but ''not both'' zones are also considered to be minor. Most abilities can be limited that way by having the word "Offensive" or "Defensive" added in front of their keyworded name, as a prefix.
**Example: ''Offensive Strike'' is a minor version of the ability called just ''Strike''.
*Creatures usually have between 0 to 2 abilities, with the exception that two minor abilities count as one normal.
*Creatures with more than 2 normal abilities are a rare exception. A creature can't have more than three minor abilities in total.
*Negative abilities - ''inabilities'' - can be used for balancing reasons to give a creature a drawback.
*All abilities belong to one of four faction related groups:
**Primary: These are faction specific abilities that are unique and only available to that specific faction. About 30% to 60% of the abilities available should be of this type.
**Secondary: Abilities borrowed from a pre-defined "sister faction". About 5% - 10%. Substandard performance.
**Tertiary: Abilities borrowed from a pre-defined "cousin faction". About 0% - 3%. Substandard performance.
**General: Abilities that any faction could have. 10% - 30%. Example: Flying.

==Costs==
To calculate a creatures cost one has should take the following into account to get a basic idea of what price in gold ''could be'' appropriate:

*+1 gold cost per normal positive ability, +0.5 gold for per minor positive.
*-1 gold cost per normal negative ability, -0.5 gold for per minor positive.
*The following should also be added to the gold cost, rounded to zero decimals correctly: (ATK + DEF)/2. Whenever rounding occurs an additional minor skill will have to be added to make up for the 0.5 extra gold cost.
*Out of faction characteristics according to modifiers: Between +0 to +5 gold cost.
***Out of faction characteristics should be avoided in the game alltogether until we have a large cardpool in order to establish faction identities as clearly as possible from the start.
**+0 gold cost is only given for an out of faction characteristics if the card has other, non-cost related, serious drawbacks instead. If it has not then the gold cost is used steeply to compensate.
**Example: A Gaian card that would kill target creature instantly is out of character for how Gaians work. Such a card would probably cost +3 or +4 more than other factions equivalent.

** Creatures ''can'' have 0 attack, but not less than 1 DEF as default value.
* Numbers can never be negative, and there's no upper limit for how high ATK/DEF can become while being modified in game.
* Card stats are adjusted in relation to certain attributes, such as species, faction, abilities etc. Please see [[Faction Concepts|mindmap]] for more specifics.

==Types==
*Each creature card is of the ''cardtype Creature''. This is not written out in clear text. Instead it is indicated by the creature template that differs from all other templates in both colour and layout. In addition it has some two unique containers that are only found on it.
*A creature can be of several ''subtypes'', also known as ''creature types''.
*Creature names also double as subtypes. Example: A creature card named "Elvish Archer" entails that it is of the "elvish" subtype as well as the "archer" subtype.
*Number of creature types a creature has should never go beyond four. Typically it would only have one or two.
*A creature always has at least one creature type.
*There are no special rules associated with specific creature types. All types that need such rules should be converted into abilities instead, along with reminder text.

==Abilities==
*When designing there are two types of abilities: ''Normal'' and ''minor''. Minor abilities are the ones that have limited effects, while normal are the rest.
**Example: "This creature can't be targeted by Enchantments." vs "This creature can't be targeted." The terminology minor and normal abilities won't be made official to the players via the cards. The wording won't be seen ''in'' the game and is primarily there to help us as designers to sort abilities into different tiers.
*Normal abilities that only apply in the offensive ''or'' defensive but ''not both'' zones are also considered to be minor. Most abilities can be limited that way by having the word "Offensive" or "Defensive" added in front of their keyworded name, as a prefix.
**Example: ''Offensive Strike'' is a minor version of the ability called just ''Strike''.
*Creatures usually have between 0 to 2 abilities, with the exception that two minor abilities count as one normal.
*Creatures with more than 2 normal abilities are a rare exception. A creature can't have more than three minor abilities in total.
*Negative abilities - ''inabilities'' - can be used for balancing reasons to give a creature a drawback.
*All abilities belong to one of four faction related groups:
**Primary: These are faction specific abilities that are unique and only available to that specific faction. About 30% to 60% of the abilities available should be of this type.
**Secondary: Abilities borrowed from a pre-defined "sister faction". About 5% - 10%. Substandard performance.
**Tertiary: Abilities borrowed from a pre-defined "cousin faction". About 0% - 3%. Substandard performance.
**General: Abilities that any faction could have. 10% - 30%. Example: Flying.

==Costs==
To calculate a creatures cost one has should take the following into account to get a basic idea of what price in gold ''could be'' appropriate:

*+1 gold cost per normal positive ability, +0.5 gold for per minor positive.
*-1 gold cost per normal negative ability, -0.5 gold for per minor positive.
*The following should also be added to the gold cost, rounded to zero decimals correctly: (ATK + DEF)/2. Whenever rounding occurs an additional minor skill will have to be added to make up for the 0.5 extra gold cost.
*Out of faction characteristics according to modifiers: Between +0 to +5 gold cost.
***Out of faction characteristics should be avoided in the game alltogether until we have a large cardpool in order to establish faction identities as clearly as possible from the start.
**+0 gold cost is only given for an out of faction characteristics if the card has other, non-cost related, serious drawbacks instead. If it has not then the gold cost is used steeply to compensate.
**Example: A Gaian card that would kill target creature instantly is out of character for how Gaians work. Such a card would probably cost +3 or +4 more than other factions equivalent.

Snowdrop: /* Intro */

{{development}}
{{toc}}

[[category:ORC]]

=Intro=
Welcome to the Local Design Document for the Original Rules Concept and the Awesome Rules Concept. While the [[General Design Document]] outlines the overall framework for WTactics and tells us what type of games we can develop within the WTactics community the Local Design Document you are viewing right now is a more detailed continuation of it, niched towards two specifc rules system that are under development: The Original Rules Concept, or as we often say in short, the ORC and the Awesome Rules Concept, or the ARC.

If you're interested in development it would be a benefit if you read the [[General Design Document]], then this Local Design Document and finally [[Original Rules Concept|the ORC]] or [[Awesome Rules Concept|the ARC]].

Snowdrop is the lead developer of [[Original Rules Concept|the ORC]] and ngoeminne is lead developer of [[Awesome Rules Concept|the ARC]]. The development process is transparent and done in public. You are always welcome to become a part of the ORC/ARC team or lead your own development of new and different rule system. Either way, please enrich the community with the grace of your presence and feel invited to register in here as well as on the forum to participate in an ongoing discussion or give birth to a new one.

=General=
* We try to follow all the [[General Design Document|General Design Document]] to whatever extent possible.
* Focus on a 2 player game. (We'll adapt it for more players later on.)
* Use the table to put the spatial dimension in the game.
* Avoid hard coded randomness.
* Minimize use of player administration & game variables, balancing that against:
* Maximizing strategical depth and game flow.
* With time, let the player build up the tier level of what can be played.
* Playing time ''average'' is 60 - 80 min. A >= 10 rounds game is considered to be long lasting, yet perfectly possible.

=Factions=
* There are five factions as laid out in the [[story|background story]]. Note that these will perhaps have to reduced down into just four if a clear identity can't be found mechanic wise for each and every one, in which case the fifth would be incorporated into the others, broadening them up while keeping their distinct feeling.
* Factions should be asymmetrical as far as possible.
* New factions won't ever be introduced: Subtypes should be used instead as subfactions if needed. We want broader factions with depth instead of plenty of narrow and over-specialized ones.

=Naming=
* Card names in general should be 1) Functional 2) Aesthetically appealing 3) Short, in that order of preferences.
* Creatures tend to have generic & functional ''unit'' names instead of personal ones.
**Example: Elvish Ballerina, Guardian of the Empire, Elvish Archer etc.
* Personal creature names are rare and ''reserved'' for special and renown high tier creatures.

=Creatures=

==Stats==
* Creature's default, printed attack/defence is usually an integer between 1 to 10, where 10 is ''very rare'' godlike tier of battle damage reserved for max 1% of the total creature pool, and 5 is considered to be very strong.
** Creatures ''can'' have 0 attack, but not less than 1 DEF as default value.

=Ability Prefixes=
Some keyworded abilities may have a prefix in front of it's name, revealing in what zone that ability is valid. Abilities that do have prefixes are only valid in that zone and no other.

=Intro=
Welcome to the Local Design Document for the Original Rules Concept. While the [[General Design Document]] outlines the overall framework for WTactics and tells us what type of games we can develop within the WTactics community the Local Design Document you are viewing right now is a more detailed coninuation of it, niched towards one specifc rules system that is under development: The Original Rules Concept, or as we often say in short, the ORC.

The Original Rules Concept itself is available [[Quick Rules| at this page]]. If you're interested in development it would be a benefit if you read the [[General Design Document]], then this Local Design Document and finally [[Quick Rules|the ORC]], in that given order.

While snowdrop is the maintainer of [[Quick Rules|the ORC]] the development process is transparent and done in public. You are always welcome to become a part of the ORC team or lead your own development of new and different rule system. Either way, please enrich the community with the grace of your presence and feel invited to register in here as well as on the forum to participate in an ongoing discussion or give birth to a new one.

=General=
* We try to follow all the [[General Design Document|General Design Document]] to whatever extent possible.
* Focus on a 2 player game. (We'll adapt it for more players later on.)
* Use the table to put the spatial dimension in the game.
* Avoid hard coded randomness.
* Minimize use of player administration & game variables, balancing that against:
* Maximizing strategical depth and game flow.
* With time, let the player build up the tier level of what can be played.
* Playing time ''average'' is 60 - 80 min. A >= 10 rounds game is considered to be long lasting, yet perfectly possible.

=Factions=
* There are five factions as laid out in the [[story|background story]]. Note that these will perhaps have to reduced down into just four if a clear identity can't be found mechanic wise for each and every one, in which case the fifth would be incorporated into the others, broadening them up while keeping their distinct feeling.
* Factions should be asymmetrical as far as possible.
* New factions won't ever be introduced: Subtypes should be used instead as subfactions if needed. We want broader factions with depth instead of plenty of narrow and over-specialized ones.

=Naming=
* Card names in general should be 1) Functional 2) Aesthetically appealing 3) Short, in that order of preferences.
* Creatures tend to have generic & functional ''unit'' names instead of personal ones.
**Example: Elvish Ballerina, Guardian of the Empire, Elvish Archer etc.
* Personal creature names are rare and ''reserved'' for special and renown high tier creatures.

=Creatures=

==Stats==
* Creature's default, printed attack/defence is usually an integer between 1 to 10, where 10 is ''very rare'' godlike tier of battle damage reserved for max 1% of the total creature pool, and 5 is considered to be very strong.
** Creatures ''can'' have 0 attack, but not less than 1 DEF as default value.
* Numbers can never be negative, and there's no upper limit for how high ATK/DEF can become while being modified in game.
* Card stats are adjusted in relation to certain attributes, such as species, faction, abilities etc. Please see [[Faction Concepts|mindmap]] for more specifics.

==Types==
*Each creature card is of the ''cardtype Creature''. This is not written out in clear text. Instead it is indicated by the creature template that differs from all other templates in both colour and layout. In addition it has some two unique containers that are only found on it.
*A creature can be of several ''subtypes'', also known as ''creature types''.
*Creature names also double as subtypes. Example: A creature card named "Elvish Archer" entails that it is of the "elvish" subtype as well as the "archer" subtype.
*Number of creature types a creature has should never go beyond four. Typically it would only have one or two.
*A creature always has at least one creature type.
*There are no special rules associated with specific creature types. All types that need such rules should be converted into abilities instead, along with reminder text.

==Abilities==
*When designing there are two types of abilities: ''Normal'' and ''minor''. Minor abilities are the ones that have limited effects, while normal are the rest.
**Example: "This creature can't be targeted by Enchantments." vs "This creature can't be targeted." The terminology minor and normal abilities won't be made official to the players via the cards. The wording won't be seen ''in'' the game and is primarily there to help us as designers to sort abilities into different tiers.
*Normal abilities that only apply in the offensive ''or'' defensive but ''not both'' zones are also considered to be minor. Most abilities can be limited that way by having the word "Offensive" or "Defensive" added in front of their keyworded name, as a prefix.
**Example: ''Offensive Strike'' is a minor version of the ability called just ''Strike''.
*Creatures usually have between 0 to 2 abilities, with the exception that two minor abilities count as one normal.
*Creatures with more than 2 normal abilities are a rare exception. A creature can't have more than three minor abilities in total.
*Negative abilities - ''inabilities'' - can be used for balancing reasons to give a creature a drawback.
*All abilities belong to one of four faction related groups:
**Primary: These are faction specific abilities that are unique and only available to that specific faction. About 30% to 60% of the abilities available should be of this type.
**Secondary: Abilities borrowed from a pre-defined "sister faction". About 5% - 10%. Substandard performance.
**Tertiary: Abilities borrowed from a pre-defined "cousin faction". About 0% - 3%. Substandard performance.
**General: Abilities that any faction could have. 10% - 30%. Example: Flying.

==Costs==
To calculate a creatures cost one has should take the following into account to get a basic idea of what price in gold ''could be'' appropriate:

*+1 gold cost per normal positive ability, +0.5 gold for per minor positive.
*-1 gold cost per normal negative ability, -0.5 gold for per minor positive.
*The following should also be added to the gold cost, rounded to zero decimals correctly: (ATK + DEF)/2. Whenever rounding occurs an additional minor skill will have to be added to make up for the 0.5 extra gold cost.
*Out of faction characteristics according to modifiers: Between +0 to +5 gold cost.
***Out of faction characteristics should be avoided in the game alltogether until we have a large cardpool in order to establish faction identities as clearly as possible from the start.
**+0 gold cost is only given for an out of faction characteristics if the card has other, non-cost related, serious drawbacks instead. If it has not then the gold cost is used steeply to compensate.
**Example: A Gaian card that would kill target creature instantly is out of character for how Gaians work. Such a card would probably cost +3 or +4 more than other factions equivalent.

==Faction Modifiers==

====Out of faction====
*Huge creatures

=Heroes=

*Mono-faction heroes normally have a Loyalty point of 3.
*Multi-faction heroes usually have a total threshold point of 4 or 5.
**While most do, each doesn't have to have a value of 3 associated with a single faction.
**Multi faction heroes are subject for stat or ability drawbacks.
**The faction points for the tertiary faction are always equal to 1.
*A Hero can never be associated with more than 3 factions.
*Hero distribution in total should be around 70% mono, 20% duo-factione and 10% tri-faction.
**The core is likely to have zero tri-factioned Heroes. It will ''maybe'' have 2 duo-faction Heroes, and all the rest will be mono.

=Quests=
*Quests give between 1 to 5 Victory Points upon their completion.

Abilities List

2014-09-14T13:38:12Z

Snowdrop: /* B */

{{toc}}
=Ability Prefixes=
Some keyworded abilities may have a prefix in front of it's name, revealing in what region that ability is valid. Abilities that do have prefixes are only valid in that region and no other. If an ability lacks a prefix it is due to it either being valid everywhere or it having qualities built in that are already limiting it's scope.

The prefixes are:

*Offensive - this ability is only valid while the creature is in the attack region.
*Defensive - this ability is only valid while the creature is in the defense region.
*Questing - this ability is only valid while the creature is participating in a quest.

Prefixes are not a part of the ability names.

=Extensive List=
This is an extensive list of ''keyworded'' abilities in alphabetical order that are either included or could possibly be included in the game in future expansions. Please notice the following:
*You can view which abilities are included in a specific release of the game further down on this page.
*The Global Extensive list is subject to future change where we refine the wording of the abilities while trying to keep the keywords untouched.
*Please do not edit this document for any other reasons than lingual correction without getting the proper approval first.

Snowdrop: uploaded a new version of "File:Cardlayout.jpg": Added Discipline logo in bottom left corner, renumebred and killed of some of the pointers to make it less crowded, added info on left side as well.
