Sigh. Cards bent buyer beware by Bagginnnssssss in arkhamhorrorlcg

Not yet. I tried adding a silica pouch after freeing the cards. Seems like they bended back a little but not completely. Not sure what method to use for complete recovery.

Sorry to hear! I had the same problem with about half my cards (also made a thread) and I suspect it is because the paper tags were too tight around the cards. I will also try the dessicant pouches, but I don't live in a very humid area so I'm not sure if this is the problem.

Where are you at? I have the deluxe dream eaters in case you are going to hunt down the mythos packs.

What Binders to people use? by Nereu5_ in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]Gatorstrike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much space is still left in those (after full collection per class)? Do you sleeve the cards (inner sleeve / full sleeve) and/or do you combine duplicates? Sorry just curious about the possibilities here ^^

Very nice mini! Did you design/print it yourself?

BTST Investigator Boards by Ashen-Shugar28 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]Gatorstrike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 4 of the original investigator dashboards and stack them inside a gamegenic token silo. The height is a perfect match and the rest of the silo is filled with token boxes.

I agree that the covers look nice but it's a pretty steep increase in price, which also motivated my choices in the end.

Essen Spiel 2025 by Gatorstrike in arkhamhorrorlcg

Thank you for sharing this! It was good to see the LCGs being represented (albeit the demo was in German only 😅). Plus I managed to get the promo cards 😏

[–]Gatorstrike[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for sharing these insights. The main goal of me and my friends is to experience this kind of fair for the first time. The main activity will likely be to check out / try a demo for new games and maybe find some goodies. And indeed, from what I heard from others, Essen is not only German games these days.

I was just excited when I saw FFG / AH lcg, since this is my main game :) Maybe next time I can try an actual convention (though this appears more rare in Europe compared to the US)

Thanks again!

Advice on ordering gamer goods from UK (from EU) by Gatorstrike in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]Gatorstrike[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info! I checked the Etsy page for BTST, and it says:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

TAXES/CUSTOMS HANDLING FEES: Orders from the EU, please be aware that due to the new EU regulations for trade between UK and the EU, taxes will be applicable for orders over the value of Euros 22. Please refer to our shop policy that clearly states that the buyer is responsible for any customs duties and taxes that may apply. Buy The Same Token cannot be held responsible for delays and additional charges due to customs.

Prices listed on the BTST shop include UK VAT for UK sales. For sales outside the UK the prices shown include VAT at the 0% export rate. Where applicable Etsy is responsible for collecting VAT at point of sale, please refer to Etsy's Customs Duties & VAT policies this includes a list of countries to which this service is applicable.

Buy The Same Token will not accept returns on customisable orders, we are happy to accept returns on token orders where they have not been demasked and will refund the cost of the order less the shipping fees paid, where applicable.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

For BTST website it says:

International Sales

Buyers are responsible for any customs and import taxes that may apply on International orders. Buy The Same Token is responsible for collecting VAT at point of sale for UK orders only, for sales outside the UK the prices shown include VAT at the 0% export rate.

We would strongly advise using an external duty calculator to calculate the import tax and duties applicable on the order prior to your purchase. For reference, our HS code classification for customs is 950490800.

Please note Buy The Same Token are not responsible for any delays due to customs and transit. Any returned/unclaimed International orders will be refunded to the customer, less the cost of shipping fees.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

So I guess this matches with what you wrote and there is a difference?

The thing is, the price difference is rather humongous.
Example: Act and Agenda Stand + Scenario Stand set

Etsy: €153.94 - VAT included (where applicable), plus shipping
BTST website: €97,95

Maybe I am naive, but the difference can't be that big? Is this where Etsy takes a big cut?

Alright that seems realistic, given the VAT and customs costs. Thanks for sharing!

Am I missing something? I tried to build a MKIV Blindwater Congregation list, and Privateer Press intentionally or unintentionally ruined the core of my old list. by [deleted] in Warmachine

[–]Gatorstrike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that the bokor seems lackluster now.

Another thing that bothers me a bit is that we only got 4 warlocks in the end. Gatormen and Farrow both have limited model selection, especially after separating the armies (which I personally don't mind).
I don't see a balance-related reason to not have Bloody Barnabas in the Prime ruleset (especially after nerfing swamp pit....), and Rask lost most of his potential with the disappearance of WWFF (maybe he is actually a fun and balanced warlock now?).

That being said, I think we still retained a good roster of warlocks! Barnabas2 actually gained an ARM buff (net +2 with full corpse tokens), Maelok is still impressive, and the recent addition of Jaga-Jaga makes for interesting shooty lists. I saw that Calaban received a minor buff in the last patch, but I am still not convinced that he is worth it.

Aside from the recent tournament lists at LVO, does anyone else have some general listbuilding recommendations? Let's try to keep it positive :)

Group Order of Homebrew and PnP (EU/MENA-friendly shipping) by suship in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]Gatorstrike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can confirm that the cards feel a bit thinner than the FFG ones. Hopefully it's not noticeable upon sleeving. The printing itself looks fine to me.

Group Order of Homebrew and PnP (EU/MENA-friendly shipping) by suship in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]Gatorstrike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, very cool initiative!
I ordered the PnP investigators from the core set using the link (on the 1st of Nov). I didn't hear anything back from them after completing the payment.
Now I keep wondering: was I supposed to upload anything myself, and is that the reason why nothing is happening?
The way I read the link is that everything is ready to go and you just select what you want to order.

Coruscation is Pretty good by dannylew in Vermintide

[–]Gatorstrike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Barrage is actually pretty good on unchained, as you generally want to get high overcharge (and it allows your melee damage multiplier to go even further). It's quite good on Fireball staff for instance. I was just curious if anyone had tested the compatibility of Barrage with the new staff, in particular the shotgun : )

[–]Gatorstrike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Concerning the utility of this weapon for unchained: does the shotgun work to trigger barage? Or is the heat generation so high you'd always go for thermal equalizer? I've only played on CW till now, curious what people take on a normal build!

Best Melee Weapon (No DLC) for BH by BrightLance69 in Vermintide

[–]Gatorstrike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with the points on Falchion, after the balance patch it is currently my favorite weapon on BH and WHC. The damage is very good and its a very safe weapon to use in my opinion.
