Thematic / background info:
ATP synthase articleGives the 'respiration' skill to all of your cells (replaces mitosis) and skilless creatures in play. This includes both regular and malignant cells and any creatures that have no activated skill (frogs, dragons, etc) or creatures that have been lobotomized.
The respiration skill generates an AMP card in the owner's hand. This card can be cast to buff a target creature for +1|+2. If the target has respiration and the owner has
quanta, then the AMP is converted into an ATP card instead.
ATP provides a much stronger buff (+3|+2) at a slightly higher cost. It also generates an ADP card at the end of the turn.
ADP provides +2|+2 and produces an AMP card at the end of the turn.
The ATP, ADP, and AMP cards are shown below. Each gives a buff to a target cell.
When ATP is used, an ADP card will be generated at the end of the turn. When ADP is used an AMP card gets generated. If AMP is used, it disappears like a normal spell.
Note that the new cards appear at the end of the turn. This is to prevent abuse by allowing infinite cycling in a single turn.
The ATP, ADP, and AMP cards could be made available individually, or left unbuyable like malignant cells.
I have them only able to target cells right now, but this may be extendable to any creature. I'm not sure if that would make it too powerful or not though.
