However, I found that the complexity that this added wasn&#8217;t really worth the amount of work that it would take to make different cards for different decks. I doubled down on the nuclear reactor explosion as the disaster, hence the name change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also spent time putting all of the possible items that can be drawn into a spreadsheet to manage the balance for further play-testing. The screenshot of what that looks like and how it was organized is below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Screen-Shot-2022-11-01-at-2.10.23-PM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"554\" src=\"https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Screen-Shot-2022-11-01-at-2.10.23-PM-1024x554.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6482\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Screen-Shot-2022-11-01-at-2.10.23-PM-1024x554.png 1024w, https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Screen-Shot-2022-11-01-at-2.10.23-PM-300x162.png 300w, https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Screen-Shot-2022-11-01-at-2.10.23-PM-768x416.png 768w, https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Screen-Shot-2022-11-01-at-2.10.23-PM-1536x831.png 1536w, https:\/\/rmu.andrewyames.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Screen-Shot-2022-11-01-at-2.10.23-PM-2048x1108.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Balance sheet as of 11\/01\/2022<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I also spent a bit of time in class designing proofs for the backs of the item cards and objective cards to see what a final version of the cards might look like.
