So my old gaming crew came up sat. we had a good 12 hour day of fun and craziness

played some skyrim, got my FUS RO... just want my DA now


Opened some magic packs, anyone want to buy a sorin? Got him put him in a hard sleeve, just sitting here looking at him. nothing to do with him.


Girl Genius the works (aka xxxenophile re theme)is really cool. its light, quick, and fun. if you like the comic it holds a little more meaning but all in all a very enjoyable game. i have no idea how it was a CCG back when it was xxenophile. its one deck...just odd for a ccg to me.


Cadwallon, oh man. this was fun. if you like munchkin for the aspect of just screwing your friends over...but want a more serious figure type game...PICK THIS BITCH UP! we had a blast. a few minor complaints, like how the teams are balanced...almost to much. they all have the same stats, only diff is their perk ability.

but man, yeah its all about screwing people over and grabbing their loot and just awesomeness.

if you are one of those whiney ass gamers that freaks the hell out when you feel you are getting picked on, STAY THE HELL AWAY. It IS possible to win i guess without engaging another player in combat...but SO unlikely that will go down. you are either going to attack them with your team or the guards. or at least set it up so it looks like you are.

i REALLY hope i can find a better drokan figure. one to scale with the others for how he really looks.

i want the card game arcana now SO bad. (FFG just reprinted it didn't they?) im in love with this game's story. maybe i can find the other games and rpg too.

oh damn. just priced the PHB or cadwallon in the marketplace. yeah. thats not going to happen.


So UT. I think i have play tested this to the best i can. i have a hard time seeing outside my tunnel vision with games. My buds played it WAY diff than i did, which i was most grateful for. the system seems solid enough. few words and phrases need to be cleaned up. but i hope dude guy maker man pops it out for others to check out soon.

i'll admit its not a game im crazy about, but that's mainly just the theme and the type of game. the game itself seems solid though and while i might not think its the most fun thing for me, that doesn't mean it isn't fun or doesn't work.

im just not a empire builder type of guy i guess. they seemed to dig it though. and i'll gladly break it out if someone wants to play it, just not my cup of tea i guess.

shrug

i do hope it makes it though, i think people will dig it.

the spy mat issue keeps coming up though...you know what im talking about if you are reading this dude guy man person.

I agree - City of Thieves is great. I'm a fan of the Cadwallon RPG so I was glad to see it stay alive in some form after Rackham went under. If you're interested in Print & Play games at all, you should definitely check out this conversion for Cadwallon/Mutant Chronicles:

ok? but its still one deck right?


which just makes a ccg seem odd.


i go out, buy better cards so i can beat the person i'm playing. if we are mixing them together, then what's the point of my buying better cards. i'll just wait until player X does it.

that's my feeling behind it, that's why i dont get how it worked.

Girl Genius is a clever and streamlined little card game. One that got mentioned recently in our circle as a game we haven't played in a long time but need to get back to.
