I submit the following proposal: { Title: Less Smooth, More Immune AI: 2.0 Author: nix Co-authors: Janet
[The overhaul spendies did to stones left two major stubs. The first is references to smoothness, a removed mechanic. This will simply remove those references. The second leftover is immunity. It no longer means anything, but some stones reference it. This adds immunity back, in a way balanced with the current mechanics.] Amend R2640 (Stones) by removing "(ii) The smoothness of the stone, which is a non-negative integer;", replacing "(iii)" with "(ii)", replacing "(iv)" with "(iii)", and appending, to the end, the following paragraph: A stone is immune if and only if a rule of power 2 or more says it is immune; otherwise it is non-immune. Amend R2642 (Stone Cost) by replacing "to transfer a specified stone" with "to transfer a specified non-immune stone". Amend R2645 (The Stones) by replacing every instance of "(weekly, X)", where X is a number, with "(weekly)". Amend R2645 (The Stones) by replacing every instance of "(monthly, X)", where X is a number, with "(monthly)"; Amend R2645 (The Stones) by replacing: - Protection Stone (monthly): When wielded, a specified stone is granted immunity. with: - Protection Stone (monthly): When wielded, specify a stone. The stone most recently specified when wielding the Protection Stone is immune. Amedn R2645 (The Stones) by replacing: - Hot Potato Stone (weekly): When this stone is wielded, the wielder specifies an eligible player and gains 8 radiance. The stone is transferred to the eligible player. An eligible player is one who has not owned this stone since the last time Agora owned it. If this stone is not owned by Agora, a player CANNOT otherwise transfer it, rules to the contrary notwithstanding. This stone is immune if 3 or more players have wielded it since the most recent collection notice. with: - Hot Potato Stone (weekly): When this stone is wielded, the wielder specifies an eligible player and gains 8 radiance. The stone is transferred to the eligible player. An eligible player is one who has not owned this stone since the last time it was transferred without being wielded. If this stone has been wielded at least once in the last 15 days, it is immune. } -- nix Arbitor, Spendor
