Time Line: Adventures in Time Travel Rough Draft

You are a Time Traveller.  

The Time Line is not as robust as everybody seemed to think.  While stepping on a butterfly doesn't dramatically change everything, it turns out that you're not alone in being able to a time Travel.  Some of your fellow Travellers are not nice.

Card Types:

Traveller Cards
Big cards with lots of information about a Traveller.  Includes bio, special abilities, unique win conditions, attributes, and health.  These go in front of the player.

Age Cards

Premise: Adventures in Time Travel

The premise is "Adventures in Time Travel" and the core mechanic of the game is the Time Line, a series of five cards that represent different time periods.

As play progresses, the players' actions can dramatically effect the Time Line. Even the player's inaction can effect the Time Line.

Events pop up on the Time Line that either need to be helped along to keep the time line static, or they can be allowed to expire without interference, but depending on the Event determines what effect either action will have on the time line.

First posting

Hi.
My name is Greatdevourer, a nod to my 40k days when I played the Alien Tyranids.

I have an idea for a game. A hybrid Board/Card game.

Now, I'm not expecting anything beyond a prototype for myself and others but I'm excited about it and I'm positive that with enough thought and effort, it can be impressive.

The theme is Time Travel.

Now, from the bit of research I've done, Chronoaughts is the big (only) time travel game out there right now. I haven't found any that resemble my idea... Yet.

I aim to keep it fun, simple, and humorous.
