SBURB GAME MECHANICS

Talk to me about SBURB and its mechanics! Alchemy, ectobiology, tiers, leitmotifs, lands, quests, consorts, denizens, dream moons, the battlefield and the war, the veil, exiles and their terminals and maybe even classpecting (when related to the above... that behemoth really deserves its own thread, methinks.), just whatever you can think of!
