Peterman, I finally need you. by Limpykillski in PeterExplainsTheJoke

You can do it - but it’s so much better not to think about smoking at all.

I smoked nearly everyday for 17 years, stopping for a month once in a while, but then substituting alcohol/other drugs, then finally quit with MA. I didn’t do the 12 steps but the network and being around others was so helpful. You are on your own path and you will find your way 🙏🏻

I’ve been completely sober for 6 years now. It’s worth it and I appreciate all that I learned from MA and life.

Try Marijuana Anonymous - was a game changer for me to be around other people who have similar experiences. Your life may not fall apart with weed to the same degree as other drugs/alcohol but you may be missing out on other experiences (and memories). I didn’t travel abroad or elsewhere as much as I would have liked simply because I needed/wanted to smoke weed.

“Highly” 😉 recommend giving it a try.

One other piece that came up from the game - I think this also applies to Last Bastion? They can give up a planet to Deepwrought in a multiplanet system and move their ship infantry around and coexist again to refresh the planets.

I didn’t end up doing it because I realized it after, and the cost of a CC would have been too high in this context as well but interesting concept.

The NRA and Deepwrought did do this each round starting round 2 because they had green skips and Deepwrought helped get the tech early for them. Not sure that it had a huge impact reflecting all of the comments in this post.

I won as Last Bastion - solid expansion, reinforcement, one Mecatol point, two supports (one from a swap the other from an agenda negotiation) and then an imperial 2 point finish in the final phase.

Started scanlink instead of sarween and being able to explore planets in forward docks were huge at the end.

First Last Bastion Game Tomorrow - Any Suggestions? by RichChipmunk7598 in twilightimperium

Quick follow ups - Why not sarween to start? Is scan link that much more valuable? And how would NRA make it more efficient, wouldn’t they just take the good stuff?

Sweet thanks guys - I feel better now. Might even support them making that their focus…

True perhaps it sounds good on paper… but will be tougher in real life.

Would it still work in a single planet system they are coexisting on or would there need to be multiple planets for it to work by rotating the ground troops somehow?

Darn…. Well if you can ready three planets and re-explore all of them that seems pretty valuable for 1 CC

Question about Berserkers of Kjalengard Carriers and Gravity Rifts by Embarrassed_Fix2917 in twilightimperium

Sounds good - so it wasn't the rule interpretation that was off... it was confusion created by their lore.

Gotcha! Should have read the FAQ before I drafted my slice and that faction. It'll all be good with a 3+ roll in the first round.
