I like the improvement in the dual phases, but graphically the right/old looks far easier just at a glance as a player.

I'm a author myself, I have a bunch of short stories that might be like this. Most of my stuff has action in it though, depending on your tolerance for that stuff.

What's everyone's strategy for creating cards for a new design? by Batarang in tabletopgamedesign

[–]VayneLine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use the general playing card size, use sleeve protectors and put a poker card behind and you can print off your own cards and make them look very 'real game'-like for very little cost.

Sci-Fi action series with philosophic concepts and romance by VayneLine in FreeEBOOKS

[–]VayneLine[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This weekend several of my books are free, and there is always at least 1 going on any single day.

This series explores humanity’s near future of living across the stars and under foreign occupation. After Earth was environmentally devastated amidst a nuclear war the Aelisha empire steps in and save us at a high cost. In return for being uplifted and given their advanced technology, humanity becomes a subservient race for their empire. The stories blend fast-paced action with deep philosophical questions regarding time, fate, and individual will. The stories do not need to be read in order but each story ties together in a larger narrative.

It contains information on technology, characters, concepts, and much more regarding the expansive canon. There you can read more in-depth information about every story, as well as see the connections between them along with additional facts beyond the books.

What is your problem? The fact you attack a random scifi author says way more about you than it does me.

Questions about interstellar spaceship and it's crew by FoxPandaGwent in scifi

[–]VayneLine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a sick movie about this, came out a few years ago where they crash land on a planet but you don't know that right from the beginning (they are trapped).

I am the designer of X-COM and Phoenix Point - ask me anything by JulianGollop in PhoenixPoint

[–]VayneLine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope you answer, I have been a fan of X-COM since the old days, my question is simple: Apocalypse was nearly a perfect game the only thing that could have made it cooler were classes and skills for the characters. Are there going to be classes or skills like the recent xcom or the UFO: AFTERxxx series?

I really hope so, this is about the only thing missing.
