Okay, I have made preliminary changes to the character form and template to accommodate R7. However, these changes may not be final depending on what we want to do. There are several questions we need to answer. I list them below as well as my thoughts. Please let me know what you guys think.

1) Do R7 cards still have a class?

I think so; but if someone who has one could confirm, that would be best. I would guess that it matches class A of the corresponding weapon card as has been the case to this point as far as I know.

2) Does the ability vary or is it always Triple-Attack?

This is something that will need to be determined over time.

3) Do we want to make the ability a new semantic property?

This would allow it to be used by the query functions. I think it could be useful in the future but the current card lists would not be affected as R7 is the only type with the added abiliity.

4) Do we want to keep the current changes regarding the template and edit form. For example, do we want to put the ability in a different spot?

I have done what I think is a reasonable arrangement but perhaps you guys have different ideas. Please let me know so we can finalize the new data arrangement. You can play with the preliminary arrangement here to figure out if you guys like it. Bascially, I arranged it so that the form displays the input only when the proper rarity is selected. Furthermore, the page displays the data only when the proper rarity is assigned. In other words, there should be no change for non-R7 card pages. Please let me know if this is not the case and I have missed something subtle about the old page format.

As a side note, I have been doing some more digging with regards to the markup language. I believe it may be possible to have some data auto-filled for either the weapon or character page if the other already exists.

If this is a possability, is that something we want to try?
