Hey, folks! I’m just dropping by to let you all know about some upcoming adjustments to the site as a whole, as we start to do some much needed clean-up! This will be affecting both the site and our Discord server in fits and starts, but I’ll be starting with the main changes:
Merge: Dojo & Armory
A bit of a legacy of the old system, the divisions between the Dojo and Armory boards has mostly outlived its usefulness since the Overhaul, and especially since the more recent tweaks to the system. We’re going to be shifting the boards around a little so that the Dojo and Armory information are contained within the same board, and so that applications can be mixed for ease of use—having to wait for a piece of Equipment to be approved before you can apply for Techniques using the Rebate is a bit of an issue that will be done away with in this manner.
Light & Heavy, Cyborgs & Robots
A more recent “issue” that came to light, but an easy fix! The exact distinctions between Heavy and Light Cyborgs and Robots are mostly narrative ones, which we don’t feel should be relevant for the sake of character creation, serving as examples and guidelines rather than a hard-and-fast rule. The main distinction is purely mechanical and related to Traits, so we’ll be cleaning up their entries in Playable Races to accommodate this.
There’s a lot more to come over time, so don’t be alarmed when changes are rolled out! This announcement will serve as an ongoing alert to things that have been confirmed and are to be rolled out in the near future!
