Pretty much a duh statement. Started back up Skyrim for some New comp means adding every graphic mod possible. Yadda yadda not getting work done.
I do have a list of event resolution types, the stuff players have to check for. I have ideas for simple pay events (tap some number of energy to perform) and draw events (reveal top card of the player's deck and the resolution is based on that.
Other thing to do is add event assistance abilities to at least the common and uncommon cards. There shouldn't have to split a deck between in combat and out of combat abilities. Should also stay consistent so no one card is grabbed for only one ability.
The last bit is energy resolution attempts for events outside of the school. Outside of the school, events will become increasingly more random and will check varying types of energy, and a player may not have all the energy type required to complete it. This shouldn't auto-fail the event, however, since this would mean players can corner themselves with events they have no chance of completing. Rather those unprepared should still have a chance of completing an event, namely in the form of rolling for the energy needed. Another idea is to allow the energy cards be used as wild card energies. Need to decide on the dice to card ratio, and what kind of die is being rolled.

Finally getting something
Started jotting down event ideas for the board.
Thinking that all skill cards should have dual use for combat and non combat purposes. Stronger cards may be single utility.
Starting with school events. These should be simple to complete and are only good for common/uncommon skills.
Other locales will have more variety in energy requirements and resolution choices.
Original idea was that if you needed a different energy type to resolve an event, you could tap one other energy type to roll a d4 for a chance of the energy you wanted, or do a roll for a 5 up on a d6 to convert one energy to another. This is to facilitate single energy decks or other energy shortages. Need to decide if this should be a general rule or regulated to specific events.
