That feeling when you’re unpacking the logic of a rule for a game supplement to thoroughly explain it, and you think “hmmm could have added this element to this part” and then you think “wait…did I actually do that?” And have to scramble to reread your own game. Who am I explaining this to again?

"We were fortunate to recover a partially malfunctioning biological landmine, allowing for detailed examination—an object both fascinating and horrifying in equal measure." #HotWar #HandiworkGames
