I've seen some people hate them, I've seen some people love them. Why do you think what you think? I'd love to hear.

wotm. wisdom of the mod.

another line that you don't see too often about hydras is the potential for mod hydras. the power of two or more people running a mechanically complex game can possibly reduce error if they split up the work.

I think it's great to have games of both sorts: allow/don't allow hydras. As hydra games have become less common, I put most of my effort and time into hydra games both as a player and a designer/mod.
time to make a game only with hydras in it
