# Hold The Horde — Design Coverage

**PM coverage assessment, 8 September 2026.** This is the remaining-work map for the [whole-game outline](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Whole%20Game%20Outline), alongside the dated [Progress and forecast](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Progress). It is management work, not an additional completed gameplay package.

Across fifteen major areas, **nine have usable first-pass contracts and six have examples or alternatives**. These are coverage categories, not weighted progress or a percentage of the game. Even an area with usable rules still needs its finite content, edge cases and integration. “Written” does not mean owner-approved, implemented or validated.

Six domains remain partial, and accepted rules still need their finite inventories and integration before v1 is complete. The newly usable category is Enemies, encounters and traps: Combat And Enemy Roster27 supplies the complete proposed roster and shared pressure/state contract alongside the existing trap families. Combat and contested work was already counted usable, so it is not counted twice. This classification does not complete the40-room, ten-encounter or twelve-mechanism inventories.

The first complete wiki must describe actual behavior, progression and consequences across every major area. It may use clearly labelled provisional defaults and numerical tuning; a major area left only as “TBD” does not qualify. The later detailed-content milestone specifies the individual authored rooms, clues, encounters and scenes.

| 9–11 Sep, core buffer to 14 Sep | Shared core rules and identity requirements; start region, cast, language and production work | Two additional specialist setups planned 9–10 Sep. Ready scopes, not provider availability alone, determine assignments. |
39
| 14–18 Sep | Domain designs and finite inventories sufficiently concrete for cross-domain review | Content counts and major story/mechanism choices must be dispositioned or visibly provisional. |

| Target 22 Sep; likely 18–29 Sep | Complete first-pass wiki with integrated interfaces and a development handoff outline | PM integration and review are on the critical path; more writers do not remove that work. |

The core target remains **11 September (10–14 September)**. These are planning estimates, not guarantees or demonstrated playtime. The next substantive re-estimate is **9 September at 18:00 Jerusalem**. Early completion of a local written package does not by itself justify bringing the whole-wiki date forward.

Shared integration outcome04’s narrow parent-equipment alignment432 and legacy Discovery Chain/Expedition slice441–443 are complete. The latter replaces stale route/journal clauses in those two bodies, with no new access guarantee. Remaining global shift/rescue/full-station branches and other affected articles still need integration;04 stays open. A pending choice blocks only the rules that actually depend on it, not every parallel stream.

## Estimate accounting
48
49
The outline's **111–208 role-hours is a partial original specification allowance, not remaining labor**. Its survival and information first-pass packages are now prepared. The later survival22–39 and information35–59 role-hour envelopes describe deeper inventories; they are not measurements of elapsed effort and must not simply be added to the old total. Equipment's first-pass allowance likewise differs from its later detailed catalogue.

Track deliverable and depth separately: first-pass rule set, finite content inventory, and later implementation. Count a shared survivor scene/colony project/clue/region objective once, then estimate only its distinct additional work. Keep package review/response, PM cross-page integration and whole-game coherence review separate without double counting. Production24's response explicitly assigns the24module/40room/12mechanism v1 brief minimums to one20–34author-hour package, beyond objective allocation. This retains the placed-mechanism obligation rather than silently deferring it. Detailed campaign authoring extends these briefs; do not charge both full depths. See [Production Scope](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Production%20Scope) for the proposed revised144–247role-hour v1 allowance and separate review/response/integration; it is the dated8Sep planning estimate, not logged labor or an automatically current remaining balance; subtract accepted scope before recomputing the remainder.

This map is based on the current owner brief, Whole Game Outline revised through narrow alignment432 at2d6de3c0, the linked owning articles and a source-by-source PM coverage audit.

Production24 closed423 after scoped response421/422; Regional Discovery Map25 closed426 after response425 at3acda018. Its objective map leaves the domain partial pending24module/40room briefs.

Late notice436 records pre-maintenancef7ede725 rather than a rollback. PM now classifies equipment/acquisition as a usable first-pass contract, with source-fixture detail and exceptions still required. Combat And Enemy Roster27 closed443 at19:34, finalf1fe0d9a, after one focused critique and the442 response. PM now classifies the existing enemy/encounter/trap category as usable first-pass; the already usable combat category is not counted again. Exact40room/ten-encounter/twelve-mechanism inventories remain incomplete. Home And Colony Loop28 was submitted446 at19:42:37, source1b2eefba, with pre-assignment criteriabb3b76f3 registered445; one independent review447 is active and Systems STOPPED. Submission is not a prepared home contract. Narrow legacy04 Discovery114e9267/Expedition836ab2ae integration is verified443; global04 remains open. Scope estimates are reviewed planning assumptions, not validated labor or adopted content counts. The separately found Rescue Shift Proposal and Station Assembly Example remain unadopted intake407, not completed shared integration. The management checkpoint retains the exact inspected source revisions. No page count, model agreement or desk review establishes fun, balance, usability, performance or campaign duration.
