So, I’m playing Falling Sky, by GMT– a COIN game that represents various factions of Gallic revolts under Caesar. It’s a game you can play solo, and the cards drive what factions can and can’t do. Also, I’m pondering my current Blades game. I’m the GM. And I thought to myself, “Hey, why not use a COIN based game to simulate what the factions in Doskvol are doing during downtime, wouldn’t it be cool if I had some Event cards and various factions Commands…..”
Well, since then, I’ve decided to create my own COIN system for Doskvol. Which should help me learn COIN just in general. (I’m still baffled a bit by Lines of Communication in Fire in the Lake) And, it forces me to dig deep in to the politics of Doskvol on a large scale. It’s been fun.
Anyhow, I’m to the point where I wonder what Fonts I should use for the map– I’m in Inkscape/Gimp. And I can’t tell you how many times I get stuck on the Font question and just give up on a project.
