We are debating one of these cards, can you help us decide which one. Thanks!

*Checks date* Still confused...

*Realizes: Time Travel Card is real!*

Bomb card

Time Travel. I conquer in all 4 dimensions.

We are debating one of these cards, can you help us decide which one.

debating what? or is the card going to debate with you, and we're deciding your opponent?

Would help if we knew what the cards are supposed to do.

Bomb card PLUS time travel! Here's what I imagine: you pick a previous turn and a territory to abandon. Should be simple stuff, and diplo games would actually be worth playing just for the lolz ^__^

or rather, in the next turn (future) if you still own that territory, it gets abandoned

But if we travel back in time and change a fixed event, wouldn't it create a hole in time and space as we know it ?

No. Then time would simply progress forward as if nothing happened.


If period A = present, period B = past and period C = future of altered past, the 'infinite loop' argument only applies if you try to travel back to period A. But even that can be refuted, to be honest. Suppose you edit a picture in Photoshop, then decide to move back to the photo before the edit. Does the universe end? I suspect the same logic would apply to time travel.

bomb card, obviously

How about an Alias Card, you can change the name of you or one of your opponents for one turn as well as there colour and link to profile (when in game) it would be funny for diplos!

I think a bomb card where you can wipe out a territory amywhere on the map to a neutral would be a cool concept.

Maybe have certain bomb cards that change the amount of neutral is there? Like a atomic bomb would leave a high neutral number.

Its basically an abandon card you can use on an opponent anywhere.

Just allow people to make the cards they want, that would be nice ahah

And btw are the admins of Warlight also trolling now? ^^' The forums are clearly doomed.

ahah

do you need help?

need details to make that type of judgement. Without knowing how they work, I would guess bomb card. Anything that involves taking and extra turn or something would be too powerful IMO.

Sounds like most people are leaning towards "Bomb Card".

Here are some more ideas around the bomb:

What if the bomb killed 50% of the targeted territory's armies. It would be a strategy to have more medium stacks instead of one big stack. Of course once a bomb is used on you, there would be nothing stopping you from creating a big stack again... unless of course the person never uses the bomb card and they just threaten the whole game with it. The bomb card could only be played adjacent to your own territory. No long range bombing with this card.

Time Travel card:

Time Travel card is used at the end of a turn. The turn is played as normal, but at the end, all changes are lost, and you start that round over again (Ground hog's day the movie). However everyone would have seen deployments and attacks occur. Everyone would know the outcome of the round if they continue to play that round the same way next time. Great card for testing an alliance, you could see if they did what they promised or broke their word. Previewing an attack before it happens.

My opinion:

If theres a bomb card, there SHOULD also be nukes (which would change one territory to neutrals) and a long range bomb.

time travel seems more interesting though.
