Yes, we can not modify the .lud file in the middle of the play.
The Wikipedia article fails to capture the abstraction possible of Bartok. The beginning as a card game is merely incidental. Bartok is essentially a game of cooperative and iterative game development. In the other thread concerning card games, it was stated that some of the core developers had their own personal card games implemented--was this as .lud files with ad-hoc mechanisms, or playing around deeper within Ludii itself?
Yes, I implemented some card mechanisms more than a year ago, but we are not happy with the description language and that code is not maintained since that time, so no guarantee and that will probably break if you try to use it. So for the moment, cards are not really supported but I plan to work (again) on them next year after some long discussions with the team to find a nice language for them.
