date: 2022-11-13
|

ruleset: draft v0.1.0

|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
Let's make our first horse:
|
|
|
|
- Let Them Eat Ugly For The Win, a pinto pony (Razzledazzle 8, Gumption 15, Moxie 7, 10 spirit)
|
|
|
|
I love him already.
|
|
|
|
I start with 100c.
|
|
|
|
This will be a short, timed play. Let's see where we're at after 12 turns.
|
|
|
|
Here we go!
|
|
|
|
## Turn 1
|
|
|
|
Need to pay 6c for my pony and 10c for my stalls = already down to 84c
|
|
|
|
Let Them Eat Ugly For The Win doesn't really have much Razzledazzle or Moxie to speak of, so let's compete in a Gumption sport.
|
|
|
|
I personally can't wait to play Basket Duck.
|
|
|
|
Roll d20 under 15. Get 13 = 2c winnings = 86c total
|
|
|
|
Yikes, sports horsing is kind of expensive, and doesn't pay that good!
|
|
|
|
## Turn 2
|
|
|
|
Pay 11c upkeep = 75c
|
|
|
|
Let's do some more gumption!
|
|
|
|
12 vs 15 Gumption = 3c = 78c
|
|
|
|
C'mon ftw, make poppa some currency!!
|
|
|
|
## Turn 3
|
|
|
|
12c upkeep = 63c
|
|
|
|
Let's play Running and Jumping
|
|
|
|
6 vs 15 Gumption = 9c = 72c
|
|
|
|
I might really have to tweak how upkeep works. It is really hard to make a profit here..
|
|
|
|
## Turn 4
|
|
|
|
12c upkeep = 60c
|
|
|
|
12 vs 15 Gumption = 3c = 63c
|
|
|
|
## Turn 5
|
|
|
|
13c upkeep = 47c
|
|
|
|
really burning through my money..
|
|
|
|
10 vs 15 Gumption = 52c
|
|
|
|
I don't think my winnings have been more than my upkeep this whole time.
|
|
|
|
## Turn 6
|
|
|
|
11c upkeep = 41c
|
|
|
|
8 vs 15 Gumption = 48c
|
|
|
|
## Turn 7
|
|
|
|
16c upkeep yikes = 25c
|
|
|
|
19 vs 15 Gumption. Uh oh! FTW lost the competition!
|
|
|
|
He's going to roll Gumption to avoid losing spirit, and takes 16 damage to his spirit. that puts him in the negative. sad!!
|
|
|
|
spirit result: 3 = their spirit is crushed! i have to spend 1 currency nursing them back to health. 24c total
|
|
|
|
poor boy
|
|
|
|
## Turn 8
|
|
|
|
15c upkeep = 9c remaining!
|
|
|
|
Well back to the sports though!
|
|
|
|
Time to play some Basket Duck!
|
|
|
|
13 vs 15 Gumption = 11c
|
|
|
|
## Turn 9
|
|
|
|
15c upkeep = I'm flat broke, -4c
|
|
|
|
I'll compete one more time to see what happens
|
|
|
|
12 vs 15 Gumption = -1c
|
|
|
|
## Conclusion
|
|
|
|
That was not a very fun horse game.
|
|
|
|
That was a rather stressful money management game.
|
|
|
|
Decision: heavily tweak or do away with upkeep costs. I didn't get to do any of the fun stuff like getting extra horses or anything!
