:Leap years are for fractional day accounting, not for keeping sync with the lunar calendar. If it's anything like real life, we just accept that the phases of the moon will wander around the various solar calendar milestones. -[[User:Slitherrr|slitherrr]] ([[User talk:Slitherrr|talk]]) | |||
Also: Festival wise, the calendar places a lot more emphasis on "preparing for the coming darkness" than it does "revel in the light." Read into that what you will.

- Leap years are for fractional day accounting, not for keeping sync with the lunar calendar. If it's anything like real life, we just accept that the phases of the moon will wander around the various solar calendar milestones. -slitherrr (talk)
Also: Festival wise, the calendar places a lot more emphasis on "preparing for the coming darkness" than it does "revel in the light." Read into that what you will. Detarame (talk) 06:07, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
Also Also: I like how the layout of this calendar sort of encourages Darkreign as "you better find somewhere to do 6 weeks of downtime. I did a forced winter downtime on the Silverwalkers as a bridge game homework assignment and it went really well. I think using winter (and maybe summer, depending on where you are) as a way to force some tempo beats is an evergreen trick. Detarame (talk) 06:13, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
