Thanks so much for the input and encouragement! I definitely thought about your drawing of "Protector John" when creating this faction. :) Something I've had problems with in my previous fan factions (which were really just ideas scribbled onto paper) is making sure they weren't to overpowered, or if they actually even worked in the game at all. After returning to a faction I had been previously making, (The Freshwater Snipers, a group of hippos) I found that none of the mechanics worked very well. I pretty much had to scrap it all and start all over. In other words, I'm glad I got the Exiles to come together in a state where they fit the game, instead of simply breaking it. As for the action dice, I was trying to think of a simple mechanic that would allow the Exiles to have more access to more actions per turn, which was something they were very limited to in initial playtesting. Eventually the action cube idea came up and it worked perfectly. Thanks Tin(TheFoil)!
