Quarter backing? I'm not familiar with that term outside of football.

The idea is that, rather than having all the players work together to win, one player runs the whole game by telling the other players what to do. I don't know enough about football to expand the metaphor. It's either that the quarterback in football is a diva and nitpicks everything about the game, or that the quarterback carries the ball just like the "quarterback" board game player carries the entire game. Like I said, not a sports guy.

Close! In playground-level football and on some occasions in professional football, the quarterback literally decides what everyone will do based on his read on the defensive scheme and what he feels like doing about it, and tells his whole team what they will be doing.

Ah, gotcha. That makes sense.

I'm imagining stripes or patterns that can only be seen in ultraviolet, kinda like the ones on flowers only bees can see.

The idea that comes to me is, they can see smaller objects shivering and start moving towards the new gravity source
