Happy Walpurgisnacht! 0.92 is out!
HAPPY WALPURGISNACHT!
Today marks the 1 year anniversary of Warded Wishes, and that really nicely lines up with what I've got today!
0.92 is now out, which includes a lot of small changes to a lot of the game's systems.
I'll post a full changelog below.
Additionally, the first piece of extra Warded Wishes content is now out! A Magical Girl's Guide to Norhrosthas been a great project to be working on since it's kept me thinking about changes, and I have a really good playtest group helping with me! It includes a three-arc campaign, a bunch of maps and locations, and some tools for the Contractor that should make running a game without experience easier. What y'all may be most excited about is the addition of a few Advanced Specialties that allow Veteran Magical Girls to build up their Specialty even more! Anyways I haven't slept in a few days getting THIS and THAT done by Walpurgisnacht, so I'm going to drop the changelog here:
Action Changes
- Power Through has been modified for clarity
- Connect and Don't Let Up were tweaked for balance
- Taunt got updated to work with some new systems
- Consume Curses specifies you need to spend the Curse Cubes, but can also spend more of them to heal a Soul Drain
- Chase and Flee reworded to actually work and streamlined
- Evasive Maneuvers reworked to not be a silver bullet for everything, gained Magical and Diminishing tags
- Attack Recklessly isn't compatible with Invisible
- Defend your Friends gained Magical tag
- Stay Calm can result in Soul Drains
- Trace Magic lost the Magical tag
- Hang Out now uses Clocks
- Pull an All-Nighter (mood) was changed so it wasn't optimal to run it every other Downtime

Specialties

Health, Harm, and Damage

- Curse Crystals can heal Soul Drains*
Other
- Rooftops tweaked and reworded for clarity, also can't benefit from any cover at all on them

- Size 2+ Monstrosities can't fit into Tunnels, too chunky
- Thresholds above 6 were clarified
- Magicless Action tag was renamed to Fated
- Kamigakari added to credited inspirations, it's where I got the concept for Fate pools from and forgor to add it there
