webslinger9 64 Posted January 16, 2009 Has anyone thought of how sweet a program like Strange Eons for Arkham Horror would be for Cosmic. That way we could print out homebrew aliens and cards that matched the base set. Just my opinion though. I know some people don't like printing out things, but I would love to see something like this released. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't the slightest idea of what the Strange Eons thing is (is it here at FFG?), but it sounds awesome-riffic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattherobot 0 Posted January 17, 2009 Strange Eons is a fan-made program for Arkham Horror which allows you to accurately create new parts for the game (pretty much anything). Also, it balances most of the components to let you know that what you're building is in line with the creation rules used by the actual designers. A program like this doesn't seem necessary for Cosmic, beyond the layout of the cards. Blank PDFs would likely do just as well. The thing with Cosmic is there's not really a rating system of powers, and many of them aren't necessarily "balanced" in the same way as cards in other games.

The Warp 23 Posted January 17, 2009 Is there a URL for Strage Eons? I'd love to check it out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
webslinger9 64 Posted January 17, 2009 My reason for wanting a program to do it is so we can have clear, concise cards. Using pdf's would take a large number of files, if you are replicating what FFG has done. For instance, just the variations on the timing strip would be a lot, never mind as which player you can use it, mandatory or optional, and color level. Same goes with flares and artifacts. I would like something simple with on/off toggles to set it up. The Strange Eons site is www.sfu.ca/~cjenning/eons/index.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ced1106 6 Posted February 1, 2009 I just sent him a request for a CE version on his feedback form: http://www.sfu.ca/~cjenning/feedback.html SE is a *great* application tool. Not sure what else I can say, besides if you play Arkham Horror, and have game ideas, you *must* download this! (: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Warp 23 Posted February 1, 2009 I agree, Cedric... it's a pretty awesome application. I've created quite a bit of fun stuff for my AH set. I definitely look foward to the idea of a CE-based one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
