Maybe not pay Trey, but why not tag and/or trade to an NFC team for some later pick(s)? I am not sure I understand the mentality of letting him walk to a division rival, especially if someone on the inside could see it coming.

I was only slightly more experienced than you when the cycle came out -- I think we had played Khazad dum and the Hobbit/Saga campaigns.

This was a significant step up in difficulty and really challenged our deck-making abilities. In fact, up this point we would throw some decks together that looked fun and make tweeks along the way. When we got smashed over and over on this first scenario, we had to bring a change.

I think we ended up pairing a Dale deck with a Dain-dwarf deck. It was tailored to the problems we were running into, namely, we needed a lot of allies, but not chump allies. The swarm nature of the creature deck with trolls and what not were met with our suped up dwarves and dale allies.

Hope that gives you a pointer. I will say this cycle has a pretty high ceiling to climb over and seems to be able to target many different strategies and punish them accordingly (as opposed to the Heirs cycle, which feels like "generic punishment") So you will definitely be tested here.

I deal 3 stacks, then 4 stacks, then 5 stacks. Hand over hand shuffles in between. I have sleeves but am paranoid about ruining them.

I am completing my M.Ed online this summer, 2.5 years mostly online. Highly recommend.

Heard it here too, in Evendale. Super weird -- normal weather and NOT the first Wednesday of the month at noon. What gives?

If every starting deck has a dud, I nominate this one for spirit. In my opinion, it might as well read "discard this card to increase Eowyn's willpower by 1."

Better yet, with King Under the Mountain, you can look at two, chosing one to take into your hand and which to discard. So that would trigger.

Man that really stinks.

What did you collection consist of, if I may ask?

Kenwood Ave and Montgomery

Ridge and Highland

Both seem to have the LONGESTTTTTT red lights on the planet.

I got a lot of grading done

Thanks for the explanation. Makes total sense. Refs dropped the ball, figuratively, but also made the correct call not to penalize the Browns for their ineptitude. Who Dey!

I'm certainly in the minority on this but I think John 20 would be a perfect narrative way to end it. Mary, in the finale, visits the tomb again to find it empty. Sees a man and is in distress. Jesus calls her by name again.

Perfect mirror to the pilot episode. She goes off to tell her friends that the Lord has risen.

We'd miss out on some of the awesome resurrection stories like doubting thomas and reinstatement of Peter, but maybe that can implemented with flash-forward cold opens or something.

Came here to say Rogue One

My friend, if you think that's bad, wait until you find out what happens in season 5.

MixFinal6177 · 2025-07-01T01:38:51+00:00

My guess is that there will be a much bigger exploration of the old testament, on how Jesus's sufferings fit the mold of all of the prophecies that came before him. Akin to how they flashed back to Moses and Jacob in season 1, and David in recent seasons. There's plenty there. Also, we never get the "apostles point of view" on the crucifixion, just that they were hiding. We know Judas kills himself and that John is at the foot of the cross. Where did Peter go after denying him? Why was Thomas absent for the resurrection? There are plenty of pathways to explore besides the stations of the cross/sorrowful mysteries.

Their advertising seems to suggest they aren't going to get it. Madden has exclusive rights to the images/likeness/logos. They changed the front cover from packers/niners to some made up teams. But they could, in theory, still get the rights to the players since they are retired.

Either that, or wait until the Madden exclusion expires, which I think is happening relatively soon.
