#Cross-Cultural School Index (汎文化 流派 索引) — Section Index
Contents
#Identity
A meta-index that reclassifies the ~150 schools scattered across sections 10~20 by culture, era, and play-type. It holds no individual school data; it handles only search aid, combination suggestions, and an authorship guide. It takes all schools of the core, the 1st expansion, and this expansion as its integration target.
#Design Goals
- National/regional index: Japan / Joseon / Ming·Qing / the West / nomadic / Arab·Persia / India / fictional media
- Era index: ancient / medieval / early modern / modern (the core's Sengoku period as the reference point)
- Play-type index: sniping·flurry·defense·guard·assassination·persuasion·command·recovery·ritual·infiltration
- School combination suggestions: 5~10 examples of well-matched multi-school sets
- GM authorship guide: a protocol for designing new schools suited to one's own table (choose from 4 types, technique count, play-type setting, balance guidance)
