    Well, you got my attention. I fail to understand some of those
    categories, but I'll admit those are part of the rules you are figuring
    out. And the "Voice" ratings look appropriate.

    Imperilus hasn't made *my* card game yet. Its deck is already too big
    to shuffle on its own, ever since I added Ellipsis and Psychovant.
    (They are Events, not Characters. Characters need goals. "Debauchery"
    is not in game for Psychovant to meet, and Ellipsis has Agent characters already to do his bidding. Though even *their* goal is "Survive and go
    back home".

    I thought it might. :3

    :D Thank you! Notably, <Punch Dude> is my attempt at defining the kind of action
    genre Imperilus belongs to, and <Dungeon Crawl> is a reference to the D&D-ish genre of Post-Metal Doomcore.

    X3 Yes fair. Soon you may have to split it into multiple decks, perhaps~

    It seems my game notes already provide for "SW10" 1994 and 2016 decks,
    and I have been casually mixing them together!

    - It actually got awkward when Earth-SW10 ("Earth-Total") came into
    play, and it was frozen in 2023. I invented an Icepocalypse card for
    the occasion. I'm trying to think what the Global Warming card would
    do. Maybe offer any visitor the chance to fight forest fires and be
    welcomed by the world.

    - I recall, in most collectible card games the players bring their own
    decks. (Overpower was pretty good at equalizing players no matter how
    big their deck was.)

    - I even have a slot for an "LNH" expansion deck! (As Powernaut Comics
    well knows, I can't just freely use any LNH character. But Wiki Boy
    would be pretty damn powerful in this game. He'd be an Event. And my Psychovant, Imperilus, and Donors of Satan / Devil Legion cards would
    have great fun.)

    So, I might assign separate decks. House Player probably gets 2016. 8{D>
