10.02.2026 21:50 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0This is the answer
10.02.2026 21:48 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0High tide is such a beautiful box. Been tempted to pick it up a couple times
10.02.2026 21:47 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Another 2 patches down.
The Order of the Unknown - Guild of the Veiled + The Order of the Weave - Guild of the Measured.
One answering life's why questions, one answering the how questions. Philosophers vs Biologists, Monks vs Detectives.

07.02.2026 04:59 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0First one w/ the angler fish for sure
07.02.2026 04:59 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Never would've decided I wanted to make caravans of camels, or split pizza slices, or create a grid of railroads
07.02.2026 04:58 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0How confident are we in sorcery to maintain a healthy competitive scene as it starts to get more traction? Or are we thinking that won't be necessary for the game to thrive?

07.02.2026 04:53 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Very light organization. Notes from notebook go in as fleeting and then I revisit those to turn them into concrete notes linked to something else and I have like maybe 5-6 broad categories
06.02.2026 13:55 โ ๐ 3 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I just grab pocket size notebooks. The thinner the better because Ill wear them down to falling apart. Then I write in them whenever Im thinking through stuff and date the writing. Every 2-4 weeks transfer to obsidian.

06.02.2026 03:29 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0But but but, my bits and baubles, and 14 step combos
06.02.2026 03:28 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Immediately added to the cart as Im reading the hobbit as their bedtime story right now
06.02.2026 03:25 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0But there's so much creativity happening in the indie space!
06.02.2026 03:22 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I forgot this game came out and I just set up crossover on my lap top. Going to have to go zen out for a bit.
06.02.2026 03:20 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0And finally a mockup of the patch for The Order of the Crown, The Guild of the Seated, leaders of society through visionary guidance and burdensome service.
06.02.2026 02:43 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0First was just location on the card and general symbols. Then overall shape of the patch. Then iconography, landing on a heavy crown that digs into the patch. Signifying both leadership but also the burden of responsibility.
06.02.2026 02:43 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0With rank being denoted by a bar under the emblem (+1) and/or a symbol above (+5).
Here you can see the progression and tinkering of how these will be represented on cards. I actually didnt come up with the patches idea until very recently in the process.
3 mutually exclusive ones, Politics/Leaders, Economy, Culture/Arts.
And 2 that allow dual or tri membership. Religion (lifes why questions), and Science (lifes how questions).
Members of the guild show it by patches that are usually attached to an everyday carry item like outerwear or a bag.
In my game Patches (current working title), there are 5 guilds that almost everyone is a part of. They govern the organization of society and are focused around your role and job, not your personality or friendships.
