Reviews

Hantu (👻) is a semi-Fixed-Strength (and semi-Limited-Usage) breaker: halfway between disposability (like Propeller) and high-base-strength (like Buzzsaw).


For example, it can interface with Ansel 1.0 twice, or Biawak once. After which, you must spend Leech counters, have charged it with Cookbook, or so on.

(I don't know about the power-level, but I do love the design.)


Hantu is a ghost/spirit in Malay/Indonesian. (False cognate with "haunt"!)
