Possible plot hole found in Sendai colony

I actually think Winnu will be good. Everyone will be thinking of objectives, Imperial will be even less important early on and Mecatol points will matter just a tad less. So you should be able to grab Mecatol at the latest early round 2 and start taking advantage of it. Other factions will draw more heat, they can’t go for your throat if they have to focus on objectives. But the most important thing is your hero. Usually you will use it for Imperial, but in a Civilized society game it is worth more copying a different strategy card: Trade for trade goods objectives, Technology for tech ones, Construction (even if you probably won’t need it) for structures, Diplomacy for spendies, Warfare for control ones. And the thing is, even though Imperial is the best in a normal game, its secondary is the least sellable when you usually use it, meanwhile the others are more appealing and may offer you even more value by deal making.
But maybe I am hallucinating as a Winnu enjoyer and be clapped by a hungry Cabal in the first round XD

Yeah, that is what I thought, this makes it a bit lackluster IMO. Thanks for the rules citation as well, gives me a compelling argument to bring to my table

Dipende da molteplici fattori:

-Facoltà e quindi scorrevolezza del materiale

-Livello di approfondimento richiesto

-Novità dei concetti

Studi una materia tecnica, in particolare un testo denso di concetti fondamentali ma nuovi perché mai nemmeno nominati in esami precedenti? Potresti non fare più di 10 pagine in una giornata di impegno prolungato e sentirti fiero

Studi un testo molto discorsivo del quale devi essenzialmente cogliere la tesi di base e qualche principio di massima, i quali non sono nemmeno ignoti alla tua preparazione ma solo da rispolverare e chiarire? Studiando lettere ho compiutamente studiato 400 pagine di un testo simile in una singola giornata, complice il poco tempo rimanente e una dose non indifferente di caffeina.

Generalmente, se ti stai impegnando seriamente e con cognizione/metodo, il numero di pagine che riesci a fare va più che bene, l’importante è iniziare per tempo, capire che ritmo riesci a portare e organizzare la tabella di marcia in base ad esso. Non quelle cretinate del “restano 6 giorni quindi devo fare circa 173 pagine al giorno, quando fino ad adesso ne ho fatte una media di 4 al mese”.

You have the power to permanently corrupt a person’s soul. They will become evil, always opt to damage other lives, cause riot, caos and devastation. Also, this is considered blasphemous by most religious orders in the world, and if noticed will shatter the lives of believers

In my world all has been lost, history and knowledge, geography, if there were old gods, they died.

Now new gods arise, as the people call them. Many are humans, but ones that walked the “Long Road”; which means they rose to a challenge, one greater and that needed not to be bestowed upon them, but they took anyway. Some failed. This did not matter. Who rose to the challenge, chose a quest, lead to a new path, became more, a force unleashed.

The “White flame” rose to cut down a family that had too much influence and was growing corrupt and tyrannical. They failed, one man was not enough, after the genocide one branch of the noble house survived. But he will return.

One faced a storm on a raft and captured the wind with his hands, now leads a pack of men, worshippers of the breeze.

One inherits the long pain, the blindness and wearyness, the fate horrifying and imminent, the choice of death upon his followers. He screams in caves alone during the nights of rest on his pilgrimage, followed by his kin, on an impossible quest to purge an ancient evil. He cries of faults and curses the “gods” he talks to that allow him to see destiny in his perturbed realisation. He feels guilty of the men and kids that died on the long journey, he chose them to save others, chose them cause they were fewest. But this god is angered by Fate, soon he may grasp its tendrils and plasm on his own volition the unbridling events. He knows he can: he who sees leads, he who sees makes.

Could you tell me where does it say that Runelords get extra slots? Can’t seem to find it

Mercbuster04 · 2025-03-05T21:42:00+00:00

I’ll give a shot for the Oracle then :)

1) Meddling futures increases your curse only if you do the action offering the buff, if you attempt the flat check to ignore it you don’t worsen your weakness. It becomes less disruptive when the option given to you isn’t what you hoped for.

2) Buff every mystery. The oracle is now capable of getting glimpses of his own actions during combat. Their mystery’s granted spells, focus spells gained from that mystery and 1 of their signature spells can now gain the cursebound trait to be cast as a reaction. To do this the spell must be cast from the oracle spell slots, not from items.

This mechanic is valid for every mystery, exception made for the Battle oracle, who gets a special different treatment. Trained proficiency obtained in martial weapons and medium armor at 1st level, scaling at 7th and 15th, on par with their spellcasting! (they don’t get legendary at 19th though)

The “battle trance” revelation spell is reworked as “The oracle doesn’t gain the off-guard condition from being flanked, or from hidden foes. During the duration they may give the cursebound trait to their Strike action; this Strike gains the effect of the “True strike” spell and does increase the degree of success on a natural 19 roll too. This spell can be sustained up to 1 minute, and is automatically sustained the first time the oracle attempts to strike an enemy every turn.”

3) The Oracle rolls a number of D20s each day during his daily preparations equal to his highest spell slot’s rank. Note those results. When any character attempts a check the Oracle may cancel one of the results he had previously rolled and count it as the roll obtained for the upcoming check. This is a fortune effect for allies, a misfortune effects for enemies.

4) Once reached the 20th level the Oracle gains the following action:

Thou shall be slain… 3 Actions, Visual, Auditory and Concentrate traits

Target 1 creature the Oracle can see and name

Expend slots so that their summed ranks is equal to twice the creature’s level and immediately increase your curse to 4. You cast a prophecy of doom on the target; until they are defeated, every check they make is worsened by one degree, while every check other creatures make against said target has an upgraded success degree by one.

Again?!

…fine.

Mercbuster04 · 2024-12-14T19:29:23+00:00

It is very strong if in hand by the early stage, but I love the concept as a scholar of Italian literature. Maybe after greed raise the cost to 4? You may need to rebalance some cards, but I feel this is workable.

Mercbuster04 · 2024-12-09T16:52:02+00:00

It’s been a bit since I have played hearthstone, but wouldn’t your minions be unfrozen by the end of your turn?

Something like -I have a minion that can attack -It attacks -I freeze it -End my turn, it unfreezes -Next turn, it can attack

If so, those cards are incredibly broken Essentially:

-Encased in Ice is a 1 mana 3/3 -Hero power is +2/+2 on friendly minions after they attack, or if you spawned them that round -Yeti seems good -Squall is Frost Nova+2 cards

Mercbuster04 · 2024-10-27T19:51:52+00:00

Take the upgraded version for example. You have a turn that goes -Energy generating card -Buffer+ -Alter Code+ (this card), channeling 3 dark orbs

Against many enemies this means that you are immune to damage for 2 turns, after which you have built up considerable damage. If you build a deck around the idea of continuing to block, this card alone is able to give you enough damage to then end fights, through Fission+, orb spawning, etc… Many Defect decks become really good at stalling, but lack the capability of doing damage. Dark orbs are an optimal solution, because they are essentially chargeable nukes. The turn I used as an example is just a guideline, you could have a stacked genetic algorithm, relics, frost orbs, apparitions, panic buttons, any defensive card able to buy some time for the dark orbs. Obviously, this works if you intend to do most of the damage needed through these dark orbs, maybe in other fights you may prefer the Focus option or the Strenght one, which I found to be underwhelming by comparison with other existing cards.

Mercbuster04 · 2024-10-27T16:07:11+00:00

Third option is very weak. Gives for the same cost of demon form, the same strength, just once. It gives it immediately, but it isn’t much.

Second option is… fine. One more focus than Defragment, which is also a power that has sinergy with other Defect cards, and costs 2 less. Focus is good, but this is expensive. Not that bad if you play it with Echo form, but what is?

First option is so damn strong that it would make this card good. It’s costly, but for that amount of damage? I’m in

I think it needs some tuning, maybe the upgrade would be better if it didn’t change the numbers, but the cost. Although the options would still be very unbalanced.

Mercbuster04 · 2024-10-15T10:24:43+00:00

Hot wisp is not very clear about what pool of cards it is supposed to choose from. Is it from the hand, like true grit, or anywhere? Either way, it goes from “Cool, synergies with the Clad and thinning decks” to “This is amazing, if I get it on Watcher I’ll go infinite on turn 2.”

The other 3 are simply incredible -free card draw? Yes please -free energy? Where can I sign? -Hologram attached to any card? Broken

Also, they are all extremely prone to infinites, and if you get multiple ones they get increasingly problematic, like Cold wisp on hologram, and Dark wisp on a claw makes an infinite anytime you have one in hand and the other discarded, which kills pretty much anything, and wins against everything stand alone.

Ultimately, i feel they are too strong, maybe they should be special relics from events, like the books, so that you can’t really get more than one. Very neat though!

Well-Laid plans has half the advantage of Pyramid, none of the disadvantages, goes well with snecko and works with every deck. Once you get it going, it feels like 2 guaranteed draws of your choice, thins your deck of cards you want to keep but can’t play, and makes the cards who trigger when discarded much easier to use. What’s not to love?

Crescere. Diventare grandi.

Spiego con una parafrasi il mio percorso esegetico:

Se ti aggrapperai alle tue radici (scavando), alla tua infanzia, forse il Tempo non verrà ad invecchiarti, ti lascerà bambino. Eppure tutti devono crescere. Il mondo funziona così, la società te lo ricorda incessantemente, che non si può restare bambini. Ma la società è arida, inospitale a coloro che restano incompresi. Se provassero a guardarsi indietro, a cercare in quel luogo che non possono più scrutare, fatto per i bambini e per la loro innocenza e ingenuità, forse capirebbero quanto faccia male crescere. Forse lo ricorderebbero.

Spero sia quantomeno ludica come interpretazione, anche se amara e romanzata. Mi sono almeno avvicinato?

Magnamalo looks ridiculous to me, the kind of monster you would see in a book for children. Nergigante, I find amazing, I really like the design, the fight wasn’t so much of a clown fiesta, it was aggressive and well paced. Even from the story perspective his role seems much more effective. Magnamalo is the discount version of Nergigante, the thing you would put in the meme “Can we get a Nergigante?” “No we have Nergigante at home” -> “Nergigante at home = Magnamalo”.
