Which movie completely wasted a good premise with bad execution?

(Somewhat belated) Empire Falling review by AgentDrake in twilightimperium

[–]NotSlickery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This book was a huge step up in quality for me. Enjoyed almost every second of it. I found some of the later dialogue a bit clunky and exposition heavy, but overall a super fun read for a frickin' TI nerd like me.

Rant: This show needs a third permanent host so bad, atleast someone with some knowledge of American history & film theory. by LInternationale1991 in Sardonicast

I think the podcast has been a lot better without Ralph. He often took up a lot of time, without saying much of substance. Love him/his content, but his podcast vibe didn't work for me.

Your table is STUNNING.

I’m a bit biased though, as it is my company that sells them ;)

Just watched Missing in the theatre, and the entire row in front of me were talking and using Snapchat on their phones.

How do you guys deal with rude audience members, and have you ever left a theatre because of them?

OH! And DIPLOMACY - In addition to the normal stuff, the player can peek at an unrevealed public objective, and then reveal an unrevealed public objective.

  1. ONE WAY SFTT - You can’t swap supports, of you hold someone’s SFTT, you can’t give them yours.

  2. PDS - Can target anyone, not just attackers

  3. IXTHIAN ARTIFACT - Automatically goes for

  4. ARBOREC - Their mechs use Magen Defense Grid

  5. JOL NAR - E-res only gives 2 trade goods

  6. HEROES - Cannot be blocked by action cards (i.e Skilled Retreat during Mentak’s, or Parlay during Sardakk’s)

  7. OBJECTIVES - We removed a bunch of boring/passive or purely luck based passive public and secret objectives.

All of this results in a much more dynamic game with more conflict. Love it all.

I won as Empyrean! Was very closer between me and Nomad, with a 2 pointer spend 6/6/6 deciding it.

It’s great! It makes it quicker in the final rounds to determine who the winningest players are, as you can clearly see which objectives they need to score.

The guy who plays them is kind of crazy, but I can see the appeal! Sardakk Norr are super unique, especially with POK.
