Re: [s-b] Proposal: GameBoard

[Jamie Dallaire <bad.leprechaun@xxxxxxxxx>]

Oh so it turns out we're missing the bucket of paint too (which I'll also
make single-use, along with Rolling Stone, in this proposal -  also fixing
the directional omission in Don't Matterhorn), so I revise my "Just the
GameBoard Please" Proposal to read:

Create the following non-unique Blueprint entitled "Everyone's Fifteen
Minutes":
{
Device: A Bucket of Paint
Power: Paint
  Effect: Colors the Resident Square and any devices within it the specified
Color. The device being used is destroyed.
  Trigger: Game Action by owner specifying the Color as a hexadecimal RGB
color.
  Cost: m25
}

In the Device called "Don't Matterhorn", set the text of the listed Effect
to:
{
Sets the Altitude of the Resident Square of the Owner to 5, dislodges the
Owner and moves em three Squares in a specified Cardinal Direction. The
Altitude of the Squares surrounding the Resident Square (before Owner was
dislodged) is set to 4. Don't Matterhorn is destroyed after this Power is
Activated.
}
and set the text of the listed Trigger to:
{
Game Action by the Owner, specifying a Cardinal Direction.
}

In the Device called "Rolling Stone", set the text of the listed Effect to:
{
A Dead target Player that became Dead on the Owner's current Resident Square
gains 10 Hit Points, becoming Alive. Rolling Stone is destroyed after this
Power is Activated.
}

 Each Player is Squared upon the Game Board in a Randomly Determined
>> Square. If a Player would be Squared where another Player is already
>> Resident, that Player is Squared into another Randomly Determined Square
>> until e is Squared.
>>
>
In all Blueprints and Devices, capitalize the letter o in the words "owner"
and "owner's" and add a period to the end of Trigger texts if none is
present.
