  Reusing a mechanic I've not seen in many places, but seems obvious in retrospect.

  It seems to fit the "shuttle" flavour well (less so for opponent's creatures, but I think that's ok).

  I'm not sure if it should be "target creature" or "target other creature". If I'm allowing it to hit either player's creatures there's not much difference.

  After a bit of debate on types for vehicles, I decided:

  • "small" vehicles like hoverbikes don't contribute anything to the type, the card is just typed after the driver
  • "large but piloted" spacecraft are constructs but not artifacts
  • Self-propelling constructs are artifact creatures.

  I realise that's a bit weird, but from a magic perspective I didn't want all of the space stuff to be artifacts, so I think it best fits what a magic player would expect.

  In general, Rhox are stolid (philosophical and stolid, or brutish and stolid, but either way determined and tough) and Nantuko are impulsive and quick-witted.

  More ranchers are rhox and more itinerants are nantuko, but that's only a general tendency, there are lots of nantuko who ranch.

  I want a cycle of these to make having orbital creatures useful.

  I'm not quite sure how to balance it: this feels weak, but a red direct damage version might be too strong.

  Hover is slightly cheaper than flying, so this costs 1W instead of WW. Need to test hover.

  I wanted the tokens to be "Nantuko or Rhox" but I couldn't think of a convenient way to stop people mixing and matching, which would get confusing.

  I will need to revisit the exact cost, stats and ability costs: the idea is of a massive orbital ship that's hard to steer into action, but disgorges a stream of settlers.
