GM Client

Easily the coolest and most extensive part of it all. This is the glue that holds everything together. By giving a ton of power to the GM Client, anyone who wants to customize how the game gets played just has to make their own client. Rather than having the PHP server calculate attacks and perform various actions, the GM Client acts as a server to perform all of these actions. Because it is built with HTML/JS/CSS, there is no need to set up a server if someone wants to download and edit the GM Client. In fact, it's possible to create a GM Client from scratch on any platform using the Server API (this also applies to the Player Client).
