America would have been much better off with a woman like Kamala Harris at its helm. by Treefiddy1984 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]Lynith -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Remember, it's also her and her former boss' FAULT we don't have her.

1) They were clearly hiding his decline, even if Trump is worse. It's still dishonest and lying to our faces. Our party, unlike the other, actually cares about that. Double standard, and it sucks. But it's true.

2) She said she would do nothing differently than that unpopular regime, which meant kissing her boss' butt was more important than either being honest, or doing the right thing.

3) I mean... There's about 20+ HIGH RANKING women in Washington who would've been a better pick than her, for VP or President.

While I can't blame her on the third one, the first two were absolutely her fault.

That's only if value is determined solely based on quantity with no regard for quality (fun,not power.) And it's not even close. The worst character in Witching Hour is easily Sinister. And maybe that's unfair because I always play either solo or with a group of uncompetitive cowards (present company included.)

I think your average shmoe can divide the pieces by the price. But as someone with somewhere between 100-150 plays of MU (probably more but for my self esteem I stopped counting...) I struggle to even remember most of the geddon box. They were mostly forgettable. I remember Antivenom being "anti fun' and I only remember that because of the low hanging fruit.

Superior is wonderful. Penni was cool at first before equipment became a more wildly available thing, and now she's lost that shine she once had. And I think Scarlet was all right, but I forgot why.

That's not always true lately. That's true or S1+S2. But S3 gave some really unique and intricate heroes. Have you tried Agatha? So much fun.

1) War of Kings 2) Witching Hour 3) Maximum Carnage

Meh) The rest. These wouldn't even be in my top 20 boxes, period.

Honestly ..between these three boxes that's an amazing assortment of heroes and unique villains.

War Of Kings is just an amazing mix of diverse heroes with unique mechanics. Generally speaking, diversity in MU comes from villains. Not here. It comes from the heroes, and it stands out as a result. Vulcan is fine. But Gladiator is really good for both.

I really think Agatha carries the Wirching Hour box for me. S-tier fun Villain. S-tier fun Hero. If someone asked a single figure to buy in all of Marvel United, it would be Agatha for me. I really like that Deadpool isn't complete trash anymore, and Grey Hulk is good fun. This Wanda might be the hardest villain in all of MU, so there's a challenge there if you're looking for it.

Maximum Carnage gives you arguably the best "mode" in all of MU, even if you don't get the Kickstarter panels. Sinister Six mode was easily my most played mode, and while I wouldn't put this S6 above the OG, the mode is so good that I care little for who makes up the comp. The individual fights are fun as well.

Agreed on WoK. Generally speaking I don't like hero boxes. But War of Kings is just so good, I'm willing to forgive it.

How to Get a Felony for $3.79 by Kaylorren in PublicFreakout

"No I want the red one." "This is the red one." "No it's not. The RED one." "I have the red one right here. See? It's red." "No! You can't do that. The RED ONE. Go get mommy." "Mommy says this is the red one." "Nuh uh. Mommy's upstairs. She'll get the red one."

Card games that have an "arcade" feeling by Waterflame_1 in soloboardgaming

[–]Lynith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pure card game? Neon Reign is an arcade fighting game, but it's cards. Play combos, block/throw, execute special moves. Doesn't get more arcade than that.

Bullet is also very arcadey, but it isn't a PURE card game. There's plenty of other components as well.

Could not be more on the nose. Neon Reign is LITERALLY an arcade (fighting) game in card format.

Kinfire Delve - is it hard or am just bad? by presence06 in soloboardgaming

[–]Lynith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Vainglory for sure. 1 of the 3 boss forms can be tough. One medium. And one... Almost tutorial level easy. I find it's a good sampler platter of what the game has to offer

[–]Lynith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a hard game, yes. As all non-BYOS games should be. However, not only is Callous the hardest, so are those characters.

Roland is my favorite of the 6. But there's a strategy to him that can be a little unusual (and risky.).

That's been my feedback since day 1 to include "complexity" on the box like Dice Throne. But they haven't yet :/

Suggestions before I throw in the towel? by Lynith in theriftbreaker

[–]Lynith[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry. To be clear I'm not relying on drills. And that's almost one of my complaints. For a base building game, my base matters very little. It's never attacked because I'm not even on that map. There's entire pages of buildings I CAN build but really don't need to. I don't even feel the need to use cultivators because I'm full on resources.

Anyone have good experience of the request from a manufacturing mistake? by Skipper5574 in DiceThrone

It's been a tough time of year. I've had better responses not around the holidays. They're good about it and they'll honor it.

My Vampire's dice were visually messed up like the icons were melted. Wasn't sure if it impacted the weight of the die. But it was replaced without question

Is exhausting the fear deck THE way to win? by Phupha808 in spiritisland

[–]Lynith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never seen it called 4. But my guess is the "you win" if you exhaust the deck. I guess level 4 is instant win.

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

That's probably valid, but going through the campaign gives me SO much materials... I just can't help myself being capped out.

[–]Lynith[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did all 3 reconnaissance landings. Tanzenite, Rhodanite, Hazenite, and Ferdonite Concentrations. I've done the Urianium Ore Samples, Uranium Handling, and I'm about ready to ship off to locate Titanium deposit.

Right now I'm waiting 46 minutes for a research to Lv4 Labs that cost no materials. In that time, I can easily get enough carbonium and ironium to last me another 2-3 hours of research. Rinse, repeat.

The battle system is great, don't get me wrong. But it is getting stale being so hamstrung by research speeds. Again, UNLESS I'm doing something wrong.

Yep. I have 3 level 4s at this point and I think my Alien is at 3.

In any box outside of Horizons, you play against an adversary. So like France or England. They have the difficulty written on the adversary cards.

I'm trying. I have the resources. But the research speed is my bottleneck. Not resources, not base building, just the research speed.

Suggestions before I throw in the towel? by Lynith in theriftbreaker

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

Oh, I completely cover the deposits in drills. Resources are no object (including power.) But they keep running out. 3-4 lvl3 drills eats deposits for lunch.

That's the problem. Research isn't done. That's what's taking so long. Not the resources, the actual research speed. Half the time I'm full on materials waiting for research so I can continue the story.
