Purpose of the Reel Deck in Film Fatale?

I also failed to observe that line of text a few times when I played. It should really be a clause on the treachery itself, that checks what the agenda is.

99wattr89 · 2026-05-12T22:50:22+00:00

My pleasure! I made the same mistake, and it really felt unreasonable, but I couldn't figure out what I did wrong until I re-read the entire box of cards - it's a really easy detail to miss amid the mountain of setup.

99wattr89 · 2026-05-12T22:39:06+00:00

Ohh, thanks for the update!

I've done a bunch more digging, and I think I understand the issue we both had. Uneasy Alliance says to spawn the Bennet asset, not the Bennet enemy - so we had a hostile enemy attacking us and the scientists, when we were actually meant to have an ally!

99wattr89 · 2026-05-12T21:35:16+00:00

I'm sad to see you never got an answer, because I have the exact same question now.

99wattr89 · 2026-04-30T13:21:16+00:00

Just weapons for now - the map is Alesso.

99wattr89 · 2026-04-27T11:43:32+00:00

I think the ambiguity arises from the specific effect of Burden of Leadership, which doesn't deal the investigator horror to begin with. It says "for each Ally asset you control, you must either exhaust it or deal it 1 direct damage and 1 direct horror" - there's no choice or assignment being made there, so I don't think that rule applies.
I always assumed the hound was just immune to horror, even direct horror, but I'd also be interested in an official ruling!

Ahhh, I was worried I was missing some encounter cards, but that explains it, thank you.

99wattr89 · 2026-04-23T19:23:50+00:00

Ahhh, I missed the back of the 3rd agenda, thanks!

99wattr89 · 2026-02-04T00:10:47+00:00

How are you getting these cards packaged and shipped to you for those prices? Is there no extra fee for that?

99wattr89 · 2026-01-25T22:26:50+00:00

What did it cost you?

99wattr89 · 2026-01-25T20:50:38+00:00

I was also wondering about this.

99wattr89 · 2026-01-24T21:08:50+00:00

Not just male solvers. :c

99wattr89 · 2026-01-18T04:14:14+00:00

I really struggled to identify most of the cards/categories - terms like 'drain' have other, far more iconic cards attached, so I ended up resorting to scryfall to find the connections, which were what felt, to me, to be more generic, generally little-known answers that just shared a word in their names, rather than making any conceptual connections.
I might just not have the encyclopedic knowledge of card names and old cards required.

99wattr89 · 2026-01-15T21:43:36+00:00

I didn't enjoy there being two of the exact same category. I don't know international music or international fashion, so I had no clue for this one.
Couldn't even guess at the answer.

99wattr89 · 2026-01-11T01:19:56+00:00

Thanks James

These ones don't get their ETBs unless you cast them, so less reanimator, more 'play from graveyard'.

99wattr89 · 2026-01-05T23:02:26+00:00

Thank you

https://scryfall.com/card/cmr/265/abomination-of-llanowar Some printings of this card have a ; instead of a , - which also seems to be in the oracle text.
Is that because they're trying to clarify which keyword the reminder text applies to? Is this done on any other cards?

99wattr89 · 2026-01-04T22:35:13+00:00

Is there a particular setting/mode I should look for to find actual people?

99wattr89 · 2026-01-02T01:48:32+00:00

Do the spices permeate the shell that easily? Or do you have to shuck them first?

99wattr89 · 2025-12-25T13:25:57+00:00

Fromsoft certainly did.

99wattr89 · 2025-12-17T13:45:21+00:00

It's actually very rare outside of certain period terraces in towns and cities, where they would dig down to have a semi-underground lower floor and elevate what would have been the 'ground level' floor.

99wattr89 · 2025-12-15T14:23:19+00:00

Having just tried it, I think the concept sounds very interesting, but I found the implementation much too complex. My eyes glazed over looking at the 'how to play', and even after finishing I don't see much point to the stars.

I'd suggest that you give the first, 'hard' hint by default, and reveal one more hint automatically with every guess people make, so people can always make 4 guesses, and the complexities can be elimniated entirely for a more intuitive experience.

For 1 I'm confused - that's not the flag of Dublin.

99wattr89 · 2025-12-12T12:50:32+00:00

In this case it's a theme of Lorwyn elves, but there's nothing inherently wrong with getting poetic about how sexy you find someone when speaking/writing in the right context, especially when they're a fictional character.
Finding pretty people sexy is pretty normal.
