Title: Omega Thirteen
Text:
"May be used once by a player to undo all events back to the beginning of player's turn. May only be played before the end of the next opponent's turn in the current direction of play."
Type:
Very Special, non-aggressive, no dice
Bunny Bits:
Since "going back 13 seconds" would be impractical to implement without causing fights, we decided that we would emphasize "undo a (fatal) single mistake" while distinguishing it from "Bunny On The Edge Of Forever." The card has to be Very Special to allow it to be played outside the holder's turn and non-aggressive so that if the opponent following you kills your only bunny, you can recover from it.
Personal notes:
When I was helping my wife complete her set of KB cards, I had the "duh" moment of realizing the next Omega card would be 13, which just screamed for a Galaxy Quest tribute. The bunny characters are Lt. Tawny Madison and Dr. Lazarus.
While it is not a new idea:
(magiccarrot.proboards36.com/index.cgi?board=polls&action=display&thread=1123141797&page=2#1188619809) I didn't know it had been discussed before I registered in November 2007. I only searched for threads as I was preparing to post this.
JB indicated to me that there would not be an official 13th Omega card. He also mentioned they'd had the same idea, but the special cards are in sets of twelve. (Sigh.) On the bright side, I presume that means we can expect 6 more Psi cards and we can finally use the "matching colors" mechanic!
The image is 150 DPI, so it will print exactly 2.5 x 3.5 inches. If you trim the corners from the black border, it will fit onto a Bunny Blank. Omega Thirteen was created entirely with open-source software and fonts (except for EnviroCom).
Enjoy!
