We could use some new pillars...

[vrt]

I'd like to toss the idea of 'splash pillars' back out there.  I personally think it's brilliant.

Steam Pillar:
Produce :Water each turn.
When Steam Pillar comes into play, transform one into .

Steam Tower:
Produce each turn.
When Steam Tower comes into play, add one to your quanta pool.


That would be tight as sin.  144 new pillars, though.  Lots of naming to do.

12*11/2 = 66 in my book.


And I'd be willing to tackle quite a few of these, artwork-wise. Landscape/scenery painting is what I find the most fun.

For splash pillars it would be 132 though, as water-splash/fire is not the same as fire-splash/water.

I'm kinda new to the game but as a long time tcg player my idea would be to use a pillar that once is put into play you get to choose the one element it will produce for the rest of the game, this still helps to smooth your draws without breaking the game mechanics by generating multiple quantum at the same time, plus it would be only one card.

Hmm nice idea Dan, a pillar that you can choose what it provides. Is the choice only once?

My suggestion to that would be to make it cost 1 random quanta to put out the "Pillar of Choice" this would mean you couldn't spam them so easily.

Maybe use the Relic Pillar for this??

Another idea is to use these pillars and do the following:
 For 1 Quanta played you get to choose which Element it produces. For each 4 Random Quanta after that up to 8 you can have the pillar produce an Extra of that Quanta for 4 turns then it goes back to one only.

Ok so that might sound a bit strange but you get to turn any 8 Quanta into the one you need (ie FFQ Decks etc.)

Just some more ideas.

Thanks

I like the original idea the most. when this topic is in question. otherwise the "multi pillars" (look post: http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,1696.msg17774/highlight,multi+pillars#msg17774 ) are the best.

Loved the whole initiative, hope Zanz gives it a try someday

You guys are crazy if you expect over a hundred cards to be made JUST so u can play three colored decks...
Just make this


Time Converter
Each turn is generated
Convert : choose a quantum and generate one of those quantums.
(ability only usable once a turn)

one question would nymphs tears work on anybodies variation of these????

[Sigh]

Sure, but they'd just turn into one or the other with a 50/50 (or 33/33/33, or 25/25/25/25...) chance of being any of the color you want. so kinda like QT, but instead of all 12 you only have a chance of getting a few nymph types.

wow... see? thath's why i like sigh. thinks of everything!

[Antagon]

it would be great to have a pillar like "top of the mountain" which grants - if only one - earth quantum, when there are 2 in stack 1 earth 1 air, when there are 3 in play 2earth 1air, ...

or something like that. would be great, you only need this type and youll have both quantums equal!

Life Cycle:(X random?)
Produces  and  each turn.

Splasher Pillar:
Your mark produces 1 more quantum.Produces 1 quantum each turn
(1 card for each element ex.water splasher, light splasher, etc.)
