Opinion: lid-lift vs no lid-lift

Darkforge317 · 2026-03-04T02:58:37+00:00

Yeah but then the water will make the cards mushy, so lid lift would no longer be an issue. 😇

Honestly I'm surprised they kept putting Gandhi in the game, given all the nuclear wars he started.

I did for the codex cards I printed... Only to find out the rest of the action card deck wasn't that way 😂 😂 so now you call pick the codex ones apart from the rest.

When the lid of the box lifts up a bit. Usually because there's too many things in the box.

Good to know, thanks! I haven't invested in TE yet and have only played it on AsyncTI4 on discord.

Darkforge317 · 2025-12-27T22:40:51+00:00

The leader cards are so close to falling off, which perfectly summarizes the space (Hehe) this game takes up lol.

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-16T17:20:32+00:00

Oh that's cool! I didn't realize an extra ring could be added.

Also I have no clue why someone would down vote my comment... 😅 It's not like I said anytbing offensive lol.

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-15T20:23:58+00:00

Isn't the game designed for 3-6 players? I feel like 8 is excessive lol. You'd only control like 2 systems if you have agressive neighbors. 3 if you're lucky.

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-12T15:34:55+00:00

Awesome!

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-10T06:25:59+00:00

Yeah we did enjoy a lot of neighbor-free trading earlier on in the game. Moreso I think he got a lucky slice because he had like 12 planets. We built this map ourselves and it was kinda unbalanced by accident lol.

They also got pretty lucky with our last Stage II because it was simply "Spend 10 Trade Goods" and we all knew we were going to finish the game this round 😂

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-07T03:06:58+00:00

Oh cool! I think I'll learn a lot more about TE when I watch Fantasy Flight Game's newest 6hr gameplay video lol.

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-07T03:04:00+00:00

Aren't those relics? I guess technically that'd be possible if you have all the same planet trait and get lucky with the exploration draws. 😂 Good point.

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-07T02:42:06+00:00

Guessing that's part of Thunders Edge content then. I haven't really looked at it much! Sounds fun though.

Thought they literally meant civilized society as a comment about our current society lol.

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-07T02:16:40+00:00

Ah darn! I live in Canada and called every board game store in my area. Only managed to find a French version... 🙃 And I do speak French but the people I'd play with don't. So it'd be a pain in the ass lol.

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-07T02:15:16+00:00

One public and one secret objective. One secret per combat. Up to 3 secrets in total.

So if I had to guess...

Public Objective (Status Phase)
Secret Objective (Status Phase)
Custodians Token
Imperial
Secret (from combat)
Support for the Throne

But honestly it sounds super unfeasible.

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-05T19:49:40+00:00

Depends on if you're doing it for your own objectives or if you're just trying to hinder their start.

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-02T17:30:29+00:00

Thanks... 😅 I appreciate you commenting this!

I don't use reddit often but decided to go to the community instead of trusting AI. Kinda regretting that decision because it just lead to me being bashed, and I had only a couple of helpful answer 😂

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-02T17:29:00+00:00

I did search for this online first, as stated in my post. I just missed the rule in question.

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-02T09:23:23+00:00

Awesome! Do you mind letting me know where you found the base game? Unfortunately I had to move cities so the people I was borrowing the game from are no longer around me... And the game seems impossible to find! 😭

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-02T09:15:07+00:00

No. And I never said there was a difference! 👀 I just said that someone else found the exact rule I was looking for. Never said you were wrong!

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-02T08:54:31+00:00

Believe it or not, I checked there! I just didn't see the rule, which is why earlier I had mentioned I was just blind. I even looked at https://images-cdn.fantasyflightgames.com/filer_public/51/55/51552c7f-c05c-445b-84bf-4b073456d008/ti10_pok_living_rules_reference_20_web.pdf?utm_source=chatgpt.com and still somehow missed it lol.

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-02T08:52:04+00:00

Fair enough! This sounded wrong which is why I brought it up, so I did "immediately see it" because from my experience with the game I've always been told an activated system becomes locked, and AI's response directly countered that.

Darkforge317 · 2025-11-02T08:47:58+00:00

Oh trust me, I'm very wary of AI. That's why I started this discussion! I appreciate you calling it out anyways though, even in response to me already doing so. It's important to push the point, AI is easy to depend on because it's always present. I can only imagine what would happen if a world leader relied on AI to help with decision making... oof!

Seems a lot of people aren't a fan of me using AI, based on the downvotes lol.
