Anything would be better.<br /><br />Prison Break * I agree<br /><br />New Sheriff in Town *Possible could work if it forced a character change for the sheriff. <br /><br />Iron Will *Even for a short time a little control is nice. After all even forcing people not to use discard/steal for around is an effect.<br /><br />Kaboom *3 life is to much extra risk on one person. Don't really like the name, do see a way to fix the card; not sure if the two are related.<br /><br />Mother Load * In a 7 player game that's 7 General store's in one round...WOWZA! Also thematically I don't like the card..why would a outlaw share his windfall with anyone? I like the name but i think this is OP.<br /><br />Quick Draw * Could make this better by adding that cards that have a 1 turn wait(green border) can be used instantly when this is in play and drop the "Green Flash" <br /><br />Returning Fire *I don't mind the card but after play testing it may switch to a Bang! to return fire. <br /><br />Gypsy Rose * she was a stripper so i am thinking there should be some form of payment for her services. Maybe can look at 3 cards but the player who owns the cards picks one of the 3 to give her, knowing what you didn't get could sting a bit.<br /><br />Green Flash * See Quick Draw. Checking google this could also be called mirage which seems more appropriate theme-wise, but is all ready being used in an expansion (hmm, what expansion was it again :P).<br /><br />Hazard * I didn't get the connection..i liked the card not the name. Knowing its a homage i would leave it as is.<br /><br />Poker Hand* agree the Flop should be first,but what about players that have 5+ cards...they get better odds...how do players with no cards fit in? The idea is fun but it may not work well often.<br /><br />Spit Shake *like<br /><br />Peeping Tom *maybekeep the draw mechanic but success = see the number you draw +1 from the deck, put the card you don't want back on top. Might work.<br /><br />Outlaws Unite *Maybe for this round everyone is an Outlaw and the sheriff is dead? lol... I think this card could be unsalvageable.<br /><br />Rapture *All players take 1 damage (no misses allowed, beers are OK, any player that dies from this become a deputy for the rest of the game and shares the win or loss with the sheriff (could mess things up if players came back with bone yard and cards of that type later)<br /><br />Indian Poker *i really dislike this card because i just know some one is gonna stick one of my cards to their greasy forehead and leave it there... Yuck! Other than that losing all cards is brutal. i also don't like hearts and diamonds getting top billing...is that correct? <br /><br />BRB<br /><br />I found this on the internet just now: <br /><br />"Ranking of suits<br /><br />In standard poker there is no ranking of suits for the purpose of comparing hands...rules do specify a hierarchy of suits: spades (highest), hearts, diamonds, clubs , this is used to break ties for special purposes" <br /><br />I always thought it was spades because of the ornate ace.<br /><br />Ok, back to Indian Poker... Let people see their card, those that fold can not win...those that stay in my have the player next to them draw a random ante card from their hand..Highest card wins and take half of all the cards involved (ante dealt and folded cards). Allow split pots.<br /><br /><br />Do those changes fix anything? *Shrug<br />Being unfinished means alot of work. Also,the mechanic like Fist, Noon and Corral so less likely to be used, more so due to the low amount of cards it has.<br /><br />Probably best thing that could be done is to cannibalize these into other event decks.<br /><br /> If i print I'll come back after testing to report.<br /><br />***<br /><br />In any case, my thanks goes out to R. Peterson for his work on these.<br /><br />ZaxxonValdezAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7419437603615826921.post-89546194759716502742012-07-10T18:05:57.168-07:002012-07-10T18:05:57.168-07:00OP means overpowered, i.e. something (in this case...OP means overpowered, i.e. something (in this case a card) is too strong and therefore hinders a fair game.Lumen0602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7419437603615826921.post-26954728515806005052012-07-04T04:33:33.616-07:002012-07-04T04:33:33.616-07:00What on earth is "OP"??What on earth is "OP"??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
