Friday Meeting

Today (yesterday, seeing at it is morning now) we got together and play tested the game to finalize any rules and find anymore discrepancies before we get other people to play. It was funny -- because most of the group members, including myself, were looking forward to meeting just so we could play the game; that is definitely a sign that it is fun. Anyway, we really didn't change any of the rules, just how they were worded, so that the average person could understand them when reading the rules. We debated whether or not the blank tiles should have another purpose other than just filling space on the board and blocking someone from laying a resource in a certain spot. It ended up that we are keeping everything pretty much the same. Now, when a player tries to attack a base with people guarding it already, they can only take over the base if there are more attackers than defenders. The game today was finished in around 1 hour, and that was fast compared to our other plays.

Now we have to make the board, get more player pieces, and color-code everything. My job is to make the graphics for the board. Nate is going to be constructing the board. Spencer is painting pieces and Conner is going to get more player pieces. Cesar wrote up the rules today. We should have a finished game before the weekend is over -- it all depends on the feedback we get from another set of people.
