That's nothing, there was a guy in here yesterday with a chicken.
Day Twenty-Four: with only a week to go, I worry that I'm cranking out cards too quickly for me to balance the mechanics. Hopefully my instincts for this sort of thing are getting better. #B7TCG

Day Twenty-Three: It's been a few days, so here's just a big bunch of cards. (Probably another big bunch tomorrow. Any requests?) #B7TCG

#Blakes7, Season 3, Episode 2: "Powerplay".

Day Nineteen: More of the Seven (of whom there are ten) and the things they like to get up to.

Also: if anyone has any ideas about what the alien presence in "Sarcophagus" should do in the context of a card game, please let me know. I've tried it several ways and nothing's hitting the theme. #B7TCG

Starting the Second Draft. #B7TCG

Well, I don't know about "satisfying". The word I'd use would be "thorough".

Days Fourteen and Fifteen: tweaking without unmonstering. #B7TCG

((Wait a minute. Computer names used to end in "AC". Was "Orac" meant to be a pun not only on "oracle" but on "UNIVAC"...? Ehhh, probably not, Terry Nation was so awful at grasping how language works that the creators of the Liberator come from a place called "Spaceworld". But it's a nice overlap.))

Day Thirteen: report on the first round of playtesting (when it's just me playtesting it). #B7TCG

Pictured: an AI picture of an AC that's also an AC.

Which I was going to add to the post before realising that even ironic AIrt is ugly.

Day Twelve: indisposed. But here's some more bumf so you know I'm not slacking off. #B7TCG

I'm also designing a "Run a Public Service Broadcasting Institution" game.
November 11, 2025 at 9:33 PM
Day Ten: mostly printing things out (in black and white, I'm not wasting colour ink on a first draft) and cutting them to card size. The paper trimmer has been deployed. #B7TCG
November 11, 2025 at 1:56 AM
It's starting to get frustrating.
November 10, 2025 at 5:48 AM
Day Nine: tying up some loose ends before the horror of Initial Playtesting. #B7TCG
November 10, 2025 at 1:03 AM
Day Eight: shipping the characters. #B7TCG

Hmm.

I had that problem with the Playbus.
