Very cool.

I think having concrete objects that have slightly generalised properties might be the way to go. Like, a Combustion Core turns HEAT into POWER. An Engine Block turns POWER into MOTION. Then, you end up with a connect-the-parts game where you have to experiment with how different components connect and work together.Spwackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07247063374457045751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721212685210573053.post-82811860022455112802020-05-11T09:44:38.944-07:002020-05-11T09:44:38.944-07:00Man, this is cool.

I love the idea of crafting but so often it's just too much for tabletop, but this makes it much easier and seems genuinely fun.<br /><br />It also lends itself well to randomization and generators.<br /><br />Also I love how it not only facilitates crafting per se, but by defining the crafting elements, it also contributes to implicit worldbuilding.<br /><br />I can definitely see myself using this. I also think it could combine well with Batteries Not Included.<br /><br />I will give this further thought, thanks!maxcan7https://www.blogger.com/profile/12504030224075149157noreply@blogger.com
