[View] 		G2occ-1Family PlannerAdd 4, 7 and 10 to the current round and place up to 1 person still in your supply on each corresponding Round space. At the start of these rounds and not earlier, you may take the person as a new Family member, if you have room. It counts as a Newborn, and may take actions the following round. 0tacticus[84 Comments]

The idea here is that to combine a powerful FG engine with some risk and future forecasting. By forcing you to decide when you're going to grow in advance, it opens you up to room blocking and hopefully makes for a tough decision in terms of how aggressively you want to play it. Note, also, that you cannot take a regular FG action if all of your remaining unused family members are waiting on the board.

If people feel this is too strong, I had a similar idea, using unused family members as 1-round guest tokens on future rounds.		 tacticus

might be too strong on general principles, consider growing in 5 with the others stuck in neutral. you might want it to be explicit that you cannot use FG otherwise since the peeps are stuck on the board; at least i hope that's your intent. also: what happens to the peeps if you had no room? glengarry

i haven't decided what happens to the peeps if you have no room. maybe they just return to your supply. maybe they are removed. What do you think? tacticus

If you want to balance it, remove the family members that can't be moved in. ccc

I think you might also say 'cannot use FG regularly'... i wouldnt object to it really but geez when you win with this card, you would REALLY win with it. bigtime. glengarry

Would it be better to make it "add 4, 7 and 10 to the current round?" tacticus

not sure. maybe pick a round, then 3 and 6 rounds after that one? glengarry

I like the 4, 7, 10 idea. Or Rounds 7, 10 and 13. Then there is a slight disadvantage because other people may be growing faster, but you would still get peeps in a reasonable time.

Here's another image that might work (and is prettier):

Edited to 4/7/10. Removed the Stage 1 requirement, since it isn't necessary anymore. tacticus
