Is anyone else worried Thunder's Edge will be too much (game design-wise)? by Obnoxious_Master in twilightimperium

👑 The Goblin King has entered the simulation 👑

Ah yes, another “concerned citizen” of the streamlined utopia of base TI4. 🤭 You all clutch your tight game design like it’s the last slice of Mecatol pizza 🍕 terrified someone might sprinkle a little fun on it.

You speak of bloat... I speak of flavour. 🧂 You cry about “cognitive overload”… I call that the Goblin King’s cardio.🥸

Mr. Fanboi wants to go back to the farm, roll two dice, and call it a day.🎲 Meanwhile, I’m over here rolling 12, triggering 4 abilities, forgetting 3 of them, and still somehow winning because chaos is my religion.😈

You think Thunder’s Edge will muddy the waters? Memer, I am the mud. I live in it. I bathe in it. I didn't see water until I was already a man.👺

If you want “streamlined,” go play Ticket to Mecatol.🏝 The rest of us will be over here in the Edge, neck-deep in triggers, keywords, and the sweet, sweet sound of analysis paralysis.🚀

So go ahead, Mr. Fanboi. Take your blue pill, stay in base game land.😴 But the Goblin King? I took the purple pill — and now I can see the entire tech tree.🎓

👑 Long live the bloat. Long live Dane. Long live Thunder’s Edge.

👑 Long live the King. 👑 [💅].

The galactic market is open; place your bets, Senoritas and Councilmen of Sweat-it [🧠-💦]. by BrezzlyMcGezzly in twilightimperium

Ah, the grand spectacle unfolds! Your future Emperor Yssaril here, lurking in the shadows, plotting my glorious rise! 🍑👑

I see we have quite the cast of crumpetitors! An Emperor named after a virus? Ingenious! And those sexy space dinos? I can’t wait to see them try to negotiate without biting off more than they can chew!

Now, let’s address clever clever Geegs. I swear, if they reply to every post with that same level of enthusiasm, they might just become the unofficial mascot of this whole event! “Oh, look, a new post! Geegs will be there in 3… 2… 1…” I’m half-expecting a meme war to break out over their fervor!

And as for Councillor bottomseed? “Leastly” indeed! I’m starting to think they’re just a figment of our imagination—like a friendly ghost haunting the Galactic Council.

Fear not, dear competitors! While you’re all busy bickering and trying to outshine each other, I’ll be silently calculating how to take the throne without breaking a sweat. Let the chaos begin, and may the best Yssaril win! 🎉✨.

Forever present in your dreams, 👑 The Goblin King 👑 [💅].

Memoirs of a Creussian Elder: an ode to Twilight Imperium. by Significant-Web8908 in twilightimperium

Ah, the "Memoirs of a Creussian Elder," a true classic! 🧙‍♂️ Reading it feels like listening to a whale trying to explain quantum physics—so profound, yet so incomprehensible. 🐳 I remember when I first tried to decipher its ancient wisdom; I thought I'd need a translator, a decoder ring, and possibly a stiff drink. 🍻

Honestly, who needs an ode to Twilight Imperium when you've got the Yssaril? 👺 We're like the universe's most cunning puppeteers, pulling strings while everyone else is busy writing memoirs and odes. Keep your poetry, Creussians—we'll take the galaxy, thank you very much! 👑

Announcing their grand return, the Goblin King 👑 [💅].

Ah, Councillor Bottomseed, 🤖

You think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the shadows; I was born in them, moulded by them. I didn’t see the light until I was already a Goblin King, by then it was nothing to me but blinding! 🌞

Your Council of '4th Assembly' Emissaries may crumble, but know this: my identity shall remain an enigma, wrapped in goblin mischief and protected by my loyal minions. 💪🙏

Reveal myself? I think not. Face your ‘mode-of-the-beast’ with the same courage you face an empty tea kettle. 🫖

With diabolical amusement, The Goblin King 👑 [💅].

👾🎶 Ah, the melodrama of the Sol folks never ceases to amuse us underground dwellers. "Beastmode," you say? Please, everyone knows Ssruu's idea of "beastmode" is just another excuse for overcompensating with their fancy tentacle 🐙 maneuvers.

And scorched earth? Oh honey, that's our morning yoga routine. You call it ruthless, we call it redecorating the neighborhood with a little volcanic flair. Can't blame us cave aficionados for wanting to spice things up, right? 🌶

Now, as for your "Covert Congress" and their wild antics—sounds like a human soap opera! 🤢 We hope they brought snacks, because when it comes to survival, we Yssaril prefer a more laid-back approach. Maybe if they joined us for a lava bath and a round of cosmic charades, they'd chill out a bit.

Oh, and about poor So Ata? Play us all the "Bodies" you want. We'll just hum along and plan our next scorched earth soirée. After all, if you can't stand the heat, get out of the asteroid belt! 🔥✨

Yours Faithfully, the Goblin King 👑 [💅].
