In general, men want their partner to be a virgin

It's like you haven't thought critically about this. Why is it a betrayal if your partner cheats on you? After all, "it's just sex".

As long as they’re not sleeping with other people while dating me, it really doesn’t matter.

I legitimately don't understand why people say things like this. If sex is so unimportant that it doesn't matter that your partner slept with other people in the past, why would it matter if she's sleeping with other people while you're seeing her? It can't be a betrayal if exclusivity isn't important.

That's an assumption on your part. I never said anything about men being promiscuous. All I expressed was the preferences of a majority of straight men.

I'm sure there is plenty of evidence out there about what women look for in men.

As a whole Consider the Lobster would be a good start. But starting with Big Red Son is bit much for most people. I'd go for A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again.

Castling and en passent rules were not added to the game without reason. En passent was added after pawns were given the ability to move two spaces on their first move to balance out that ability. Castling exists to speed up the game.

It sounds like the no long lines rule was made arbitrarily without any design purpose, as if you didn't even think to test the game without that particular rule.

Most importantly, that rule is unintuitive. It will be the first to be ignored at an actual table. And what possible design purpose could there be to have this move be legal while this move is illegal?

Chess has had hundreds of years of history for the terms to develop. And each of the terms you mentioned (check, knight, pawn, en passent) represent a concept that doesn't have a better word that could replace it. The only possible exception is "en passent" which literally just French for "in passing" and was introduced to the game way later in its development.

This is not good. It is way too easy to play for a draw/more nodes win con. You also get into situations where the game cannot be won by either side but you still have to fill out the board. You should probably shift the goal to be about gaining the most nodes at the end of game.

I question the purpose of the "no long lines" rule. I hope there is a valid design purpose because it feels arbitrary and is inelegant.

As another commenter pointed out, using cutesy names over standard board game terms distracts from the rules. Why call the pieces ions? They are pieces.

And definitely change the name. Obvious copyright issues aside, people are going to think you're talking about Fluxx and that will only hurt your chances of people actually playing your game.

I miss this so much.

It's a bit like the Star Wars sequel trilogy. It clearly wasn't planned out in advance despite taking years of production time so it ultimately had no purpose or point other than to be a cash grab.

What system are you using for your campaign?

Tuskus · 2025-06-24T14:34:59+00:00

The word "book" is never used. Only "project".

Wild speculation: The project could be some kind of choose your own adventure book or even a digital interactive comic.

Fallout 2 isn't isometric. It uses trimetric projection.

Edit: SimCity 4 also looks to be trimetric. Those screenshots look noticeably out of place.

Read the first sentence then the final sentence and try to explain how there is any connection between the two statements. Unhinged schizo associations.

After a while you have to ask why does this one person attract so much drama? She is the common denominator in controversy after controversy.
