While I don't like sharing a title with something pre-existing(mech deck)... I think redneck mechs is unique enough that I don't mind sharing it with them.

And I use a certain light casual tone in the way I use redneck where it doesn't necessarily mean plaid shirt and beer belly. A synonym could be jalopy or over souped up.

[RAM]

If uniqueness in webcomics was actually a thing then "a couple of guys who like computer games" would likely be some sort of apocalyptic battlefield. I am mostly just filling airtime at this point.

[RoseHeart]

Hmm. Maybe I should poke you to be the announcer next time.

[RoseHeart]

So I guess that means you guys want to continue huh?

[heydude6]

Yeah

[RoseHeart]

RAM, would you be interested in a job helping me find the best values for vanilla cards?

I want
2dpt(damage per turn) for ★
And 50% more each rank up. And I need: low hit high pow, high hit low pow, and avarage for each tier.

Also maybe a 25% further increase for risk reward(if that makes sense).

[RAM]

Erp- Umm, I might maybe look into that, over the next couple of days, but statistics really isn't my thing. But I could runs some basic numbers and just randomly guess what other factors exist. Prode me again in a couple of days and see if I have put a single ounce of effort into this. The odds are probably about 75% against...

Turn 6

At point blank range, Jackhammer fires its' railcannon! Right at GROS' cockpit! ...And somehow GROS gets up! It shines a blue wave on Verticlaw, who is really starting to smoke up from the cockpit.

A. B(4) ★

3 Hit

If you have more cards in your hand then your opponent, this attack's Pow is equal to 2.5 times the difference in hand size, rounded down. When this card is played, it is still considered to be in your hand until the effect resolves.

B. B(4) ★

3 Hit
When used this card secretly stays in play until a successful attack against you triggers this effect:
Immediately, if you would be damaged by an attack, attempt to negate the attack's effect, if successful draw 2 cards. After this card is revealed it is discarded at the end of the next turn. If this card negated another card's affect, or if the attack would have dealt 1 damage, only draw 1 card.

C. B(4) ★

Draw 3 cards, then return 2 cards from your hand to the deck.

D. B(4) ★

5 Hit
2 Pow
This attack does not do damage. Instead, look at an amount of cards in the opponent's hand equal to the damage it would have done, ignoring defenses. Once revealed, a card cannot be revealed a second time. (If all cards in an opponent's hand would be revealed, any excess reveals happen to random cards from the opponent's deck.

E. B(4) ★

3 Hit
Name a card. If it is in the opponent's hand, they remove all copies of it from their hand.

A. KA(3) ★★

1 hit
2 pow
After this attack the card stays in play until you are hit. While this is in play attacks against you have -2 hit.

A simple single-shot gun with a big shield around it. The shield can be braced against the ground and will stay in place, providing cover, until the mech gets distracted and drops it.

B. BA(2) ★★★

When played do 1 pow to your legs. This card stays in play until the end of next round. While in play: attacks against you have -4 hit, gain +2 hit to your ranged attacks, and gain +2 pow to your melee attacks.

Use massive rockets to leap into the sky. The cloud of fiery smoke and sudden vertical motion will avoid most attacks. Once in the air the high speeds make you difficult to hit and the clear view of the battle enhances shooting, or you can just dive into the enemy from above with a melee attack. The landings tend to be a bit rough on the hardware though.

C. B(4) ★

2 hit
2 pow
If this hits then the first Claw Rake you play next turn gains +1 hit and pow against that target.

Shoots a claw-on-a-chain at the enemy which will try to crush and hold onto whatever it hits. If followed up with a normal attack with the claw then the victim can be pulled in with the chain while the claw being already embedded will combine to make that claw attack more effective.

D. B(4) ★

3 hit
2 pow

Rake through an enemy with a big claw.

E. KA(3) ★★

Do 1 pow to your own cockpit. Next turn play two cards, keep one.

The control systems have a few quirks. They have been known to attack the pilot on occasion... But their ability to enhance the pilot's actions by using other systems, without even draining their resources, is remarkable.

That is probability, and vaguely estimated probabilty at that. Statistics is where you have to find consistent meaning in a list of thousands of data entries.

B: Huge-Rocket Blast-Off EAT MY EXHAUST!!!
And hurl a C: Chain-Claw(keep this card) at Jackhammer.

[RoseHeart]

Eh 50% is probably too small anyway. Now that I think of it(out loud) it should probably ramp upward with each step....

[RoseHeart]

RL drop(kinda heavy but good...)

Some stuff came up that really scared me... financially. It made me wonder if I could spend all my hobby free time doing stuff that doesn't make money. So updates were kind of slow compared to I think where we started, as my heart needed a few days to heal and I still really like this project and this game.

I believe someday I will be able to profit off of the skills I learned from doing this kind of thing. I do see it as an investment. However though there is something you can do to help. A big part of this for me is the art so if you can give me feedback now and then that would return a lot of value back to me from this. Thanks for hearing my words.

REDNECK

Turn 7

GROS positions itself once again, extending its' dish antenna. But then, a wirlwind of dust whips up and the ground shakes slightly, as Verticlaw skyrockets away!

Verticlaw takes use of this aerial advantage to scout out Jackhammer, lauching a claw right onto the railcannoneer's face!

Well I guess I know where the "verti" in Verticlaw came from now.

OOC: Thank you for your enthusiasm and patience. Despite what I said don't feel any pressure to critique my art. That's something extra that I've thrown in to ask at this point. But I do plan to make it more clear that I would appreciate that to people signing up for the next round.
