Title: Mega Carc reference guide.
Post by: CKorfmann on August 02, 2013, 01:22:27 PM
I've been thinking... when playing megacarc, it's pretty easy to get lost with everything that's going on, especially if you are not a seasoned vet.  I played a game the other night with 4 newer players and about 250-300 tiles. 

I think it would be really nice to have a resource like a sheet with a symbol reference on it so people don't have to feel like they have to ask a lot of questions if they don't want to.  Perhaps just a picture of the symbol and a very brief description of what it does.  Maybe it would be good to have special meeples on there as well. 

If we got really fancy, we could create a program with check boxes for the expansions you were planning on using and it would print out a more concise sheet.  This way, it could even include fanspansions!  My skills are inadequate for the task though.

Love sheets!

I remember doing them for the old RPG games like MERP and I'd print them out.

Using PHP should go fairly easy even with what little I still remember. In fact, using fillout form encased the basic html code should suffice. Laugh. I remember I did an entire website using Microsoft Excel whereas you surf inside Excel instead of a web browser.

It will be interesting to see how it develops!
