Card game idea: "Trash Panda Hospital."

You are the hopsitul amdinistraiter of a treeful of sick raccoons. Hire raccoon docturs, nersis, and speshulisds to scavenge the hyumin city and find shiny objects to treet your payshunts. But try not to catch their dizeezes!

Strategy involves balancing safe, low-hanging fruit (well, low-hanging microbes) with taking out huge, dangerous high-point disease stacks, and beating your opponents to good resources.

Cards include "Plague God" ["BWAAAAAAHAAAAHAAA!"], "Monolith" ["Suddenly it's all so clear! I just keep banging the rocks together!"], and "Mutagen X" ["It was supposed to be a deadly bioweapon, but humans are just so bad at everything..."]

Ooh, NOW this feels semi-practical.

Note to self: the element of non-determinism comes from a "Dyagnozis" phase. Disease cards are dealt face down and have to be flipped up. Until then, you can see how many diseases a patient has, but not what they are! You can try to treat a patient with an unflipped disease, but that also flips it over... and triggers a Contayjun-check event, because you didn't use proper Prowta Kal!

Another sample card:

"New Hospital Wing"

Flavor Text: "Will Dr. Prowler please report to... um... really high-up branch?"

@zebratron2084 sounds very do able! you thinking card only or card/board mix?

shower thought; cardgame; maskyfaces 

@001zlnv Cards. I don't trust raccoons with boards. *nod*

@zebratron2084 @001zlnv Include blank cards for when the real ones end up missing or eaten.

@JulieSqveakaroo @zebratron2084
maybe make the really useful or dangerous cards foil backed shiny to tempt the raccoons. might be panacea might be doom!

@zebratron2084 followed by Trash Panda Ingrneer, where your eventual goal is building huge raccoon powered mecha.
