[quote=@Ellri] Space. We're in space. One minor note. Inconsistency in bonus categories: The latter attributes to the relevant pantheon, while the former claims to be the sole god of war. Rectify? Our initial thought on bonus categories is that they don't really inspire. You've got the entire universe to play with, and two of the four bonus categories are planets in our own solar system? Where's the thoughts on hard/soft Sci-fi? Deep space? Dark matter? wormholes/spatial folding? FTL travel? Aliens? Etcetera etcetera... [/quote] The backstory is, we're merging a few different theme ideas. Space is one aspect -- wormholes, blackholes, airlocks and all that business. But also, mythology -- notably greek/roman mythology, but really lots of things, from Aztecs to Zoroastrianism, have ties to the sky and the stars. It so happens that the local solar system is most closely associated with those pantheons, and thus, that's where we ended up with bonuses. They're meant to represent both the planets [i]and[/i] the gods/myths/stories -- and that's not to say "You have to write a story about the planet Mars, or the god Mars, and only those things." Pluto can be a lot of things -- exoplanets, disgraced bodies, the last stop before lightyears of nuthin'.... Options abound. OF COURSE AS ALWAYS -- if the bonus categories aren't doing it for you, [i]skip them entirely![/i] I'll keep these points in mind on the next planning phase, and see if we can't get more variety in the mix.
