right now, So long as I don't run into any major projects that need to get done school wise...the entire project will be done in at least a week or two.

The part that will take the most time is the rule book, but I swear its easy game to learn. I'll probably make a video to explain the rules too.

An idea that randomly popped into my head:

If a homebrew TCG were formatted such that the cards were business card sized, one could print them onto business-card-perforated paper and pop them out really easily.

Then again, scissors aren't that hard to operate, either.

This idea made my day. I must look into that.

Forget to close pneumatics valve. Player cannot use articulation next match.

We had to ban other CG's like Magic and Yu-Gi-Oh from our shop because students were spending more time on the games than on work assignments...

Then this comes along...NOW what do we do?!? We can't keep them from playing this! Nothing will get done...THANKS!!! Might as well cancel the season, since no one will want to build a REAL robot!!

Re: pic: Teaser of my Project

you could hope for the spirit of FIRST to flow from the cards to the students and let them realize there could be better things to do at the time and wait to get lost in a game...

Do you need any play testers :-)

Re: pic: Teaser of my Project

Yea...I probably do need cs3...but the one aspect of this card game is that you don't have to use my frames. You can design your own card look, as well as your own cards. (I'll get to that part when I reveal the entire first set.)

I wasn't going to go into deep playtesting, but if anyone is willing to take a really good look at it and really find broken cards and level out the playing field than I'll gladly finish the set even faster for one or two people to look over.

Re: pic: Teaser of my Project

Re: pic: Teaser of my Project

Those who want to playtest should PM me. Looking for both with CG experience and without.

And yea you get to make your own. It wouldn't be in FIRST spirit if you couldn't make your own. Of course there would be an official list of official cards so those who want to play fair can.

I think I'm spilling out too much info...I should finish this sooner than planned.
