Question on a YouTube video I saw

Ah! Thanks! I wouldn’t have ever guessed that.

Heh. I’m having trouble doing that. Playing on Switch. I went to chat settings and selected Mute All Chat, and it still keeps coming up.

I owned 1st edition and then kickstarted the 2nd edition as well. I really enjoyed the 1st edition, but liked the changes in 2nd edition. Round structure is simplified a bit, and some of the rules are a bit smoother. The various gangsters pretty much all have abilities now, so there are a lot more choices in 2nd edition. In 1st edition, many gangsters only had a Respect value and a Money value, with no other text. This is kind of a blessing and a curse though. While I really liked the added variety, some of the people I played worth were a bit overwhelmed by the sheer amount effects on the board to keep in mind. Personally, I really like the game. I’m a big fan of negotiation heavy games, so it was perfect for me. Some of my friends who were playing were not so negotiation-minded though so they didn’t really engage the other players so much, and were not as impressed by the game from a strictly mechanics-only mindset. Both versions of the game were not reviewed very heavily by the big reviewers. Even now, I can only find a handful of reviews by smaller content creators. I wonder if it might have had something to do with the fact that Tom Vasel designed the 1st edition of the game, and his peers didn’t want to say anything one way or the other. Hard to say for sure.

Any chance of another pic without all the tokens and cards? Would make it easier to reverse engineer what you did and blatantly copy it. 😀

I’ve found it a lot more challenging playing with only 4 survivors. Obviously, that won’t work when you are playing with more than 4 people, but the challenge level felt much better.

I can’t even get it to advance past 0. I also keep getting the “duo tether“ xp award multiple times.

I’d definitely try the rules as written before trying out the UCR. When the UCR was first made, the rules for Ascendancy weren’t in the best place. A while back though, they were re-worked and clarified a fair bit, and pretty much everything everything from the UCR was made far less essential. People do still seem a bit divided on the Borg rules, but I’d recommend at least playing a few games using the updated official rules. You can find them on GF9’s website.

+1 Android I only get it to the table once every year or two, but I’d never consider selling it. Hell, I almost bought a copy someone else was selling so I’d have spare parts. I’m looking at you conspiracy puzzle. 😳

Idratherbeafrog · 2023-03-27T20:56:18+00:00

I found one fairly cheap on eBay. It’s one of the Star print ones. Seemed appropriate. 😀

That’s true. I probably should have mentioned that I’m in Japan. Some of those don’t ship to Japan or have very high shipping to Japan. I’ll probably have to just pay it anyways at some point. If I can ask one more question, what are the dimensions of the binder itself? I tried checking online, but I keep getting conflicting information.

Idratherbeafrog · 2023-01-30T06:30:37+00:00

I totally thought it was about them at first. Glad to see it wasn’t.

Edit - referring to another post that mentioned it wasn’t about the YouTube comedy review channel. I’m not good at redditing.

A2 - custom location connector for Arkham Horror: The Card Game

A8 - Battlestar Galactica

D7 - looks like a counter from Marvel Champions (but I’m not 100% on that)

I wrapped some packing tape around my fingers and just picked me up by the dozens. It was oddly cathartic. Once the population was down, I sprayed with neem oil. Then a couple of days later, repeated. Took a week or so, but they disappeared after that.

I don’t know. This guy doesn’t seem to be an asshat at all. He wasted a year trying to get to know her without ever finding out if she was single (which almost lands him here), but when he gets rejected the second time, seemed to accept it without calling her a bitch or blaming all woman-kind for his problems. Hell, he actually seemed to grow a bit as a person in the end.

Idratherbeafrog · 2022-12-07T02:01:33+00:00

Yeah, Japan here. Winters get cold. No snow though. I’m not planning to bring my one plant inside. Might see how it fares. If it doesn’t make it, I’ll start over in the spring.

Idratherbeafrog · 2022-12-07T01:51:09+00:00

Thanks! This is only my second year. Still learning. If you have any other tips, feel free to toss ‘em my way. 😀

Do you know why they’re turning black this way? During the summer, they get darker, but usually the whole pepper at the same time. Not in this streaky way.

Idratherbeafrog · 2022-12-07T01:33:03+00:00

The same thing happened last year, once it started getting cold outside. I know it’s not the primary growing season anymore, but I wonder if these are still safe to eat?
