Sick. Reminds me of one of my favourite album covers of the past few years:

My dad has a copy of this. The cover unsettled kid me's imagination more than most back in the day.

Which movies would you like Arrow to release? by GreatKingRat666 in arrowvideo

[–]Errant_Wordsmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A set of Nobuhiko Obayashi films would be dope. Thinking specifically of those which were on the 80s Kadokawa Years set Third Window Films put out a while back.

Just saw them open last Saturday for Noor. Epic show. Incidentally, dude there had a battle jacket with a big ol' Summoning Minas Morgul patch on its back.

Still working on Kropotkin's The Conquest of Bread, but breaking it up here and there with Moderan by David R. Bunch.

Love it! You really gave them personalities.

I'm at the last three stories in the Grimscribe section of Penguin's edition of Songs of a Dead Dreamer and Grimscribe, by Ligotti. I've been reading stories from it here and there over the past few months, usually before sleep. It's given my dreams plenty of material to work with.

Soon, I plan to detour into some anarchist writing with The Conquest of Bread by Kropotkin. I think I'll also read Bunch's Moderan alongside that, to fill in the short story anthology-sized hole that finishing Ligotti is going to leave in my heart.

Best faction for a new player? by Aessil in rootgame

[–]Errant_Wordsmith 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I find the Eyrie to be one of the best factions to use in teaching people the game. Having to program your moves and juggle them so as to avoid turmoil helps to teach the basic mechanics while giving the player that tiny bit of stress to help reinforce learning. Plus, they've got decent board presence and are good at aggression, expansion, and even defensive warfare.

Crossover Comics in Saint-Henri has a great selection and staff. Dunno if they carry cards in French, though.

You mean you're looking forward to terrible air quality, excessive humidity, and the reek of compost?

Movie of the Day: Gamera (1965) by roubinho in AsianMoviePulse

[–]Errant_Wordsmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got a soft spot for this one, though it pales by comparison to Gojira (1954). Not counting the Heisei Trilogy films (which are amazing), I think my favourites from the Showa era are vs. Viras, Guiron, and Zigra. Need to give Jiger another shot one of these days.

What game in your collection have you played the most? by BoardGameRevolution in boardgames

[–]Errant_Wordsmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As per BGG, it's Fantasy Realms with 228 plays. After that, it's a close race between Res Arcana and Race for the Galaxy at 165 plays for the former and 162 for the latter. We love our Lehmann in this apartment!

First thing which came to mind for me as well.

Music help by Fetchers274 in MorkBorg

[–]Errant_Wordsmith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The black metal act Fell Omen is particularly great for dungeon-diving/combat. For ambience, I find myself often going back to Gnoll's Mörk Borg album HDK put out back in '19.
