A Blast from the Past, as I prepare to post a Dev Teaser!
Added 2021-09-30 17:02:38 +0000 UTCIn 3.2, there was a lot of content I had to scrap as it was iterated through design. One thing of which was the use of the Scarlet Cultist you see in "Lanius's April Fools Tree".
For those that haven't played it, at the end of Lanius's Kaiser's Legion game rule tree you eventually meet a cultist in scarlet robes. He offers Lanius a pen, then tells him to write his name.
The trick is that he can actually put whatever he wants in there, the pen is a instrument of change.
I enjoyed Zap's writing with this, so figured I would try to lean into it early in 3.2's writing. This was at one point going to be Blue Roses leader.
I workshopped it with a few devs, eventually finding it had way too much "Weight" for Lanius's early conquest. Building off of what we had in 3.0 with Lanius's invasion of the Twin Mothers made much more sense as a reflective conquest for him.
Going to be posting a dev diary soon! Excted that people at large will get to see some of the big stuff I have been doing for 4.0.
