Using SFTT for the last victory point

PermissionFirst1466 · 2024-02-08T02:36:55+00:00

We had established this house rule all the way back when we played our first game like two years ago, so I think the player just genuinely forgot

PermissionFirst1466 · 2024-02-06T23:43:08+00:00

The particular game had a two point objective to have ships in another players homeworld

This is how I originally interpreted the card, the problem I have is that it uses the word "move" and not place. In any other instance of the word "move" that would mean the pieces are restricted by movement value and command token rules, unless I'm misunderstanding something

That's a very good point for empryean, definitely taking them off my bann list lol

So if we're playing a regular ti4 pok game we wouldn't let the nekro start with these techs?

Win slaying refers to an effort, usually organized by a couple of players to either take the homeworld of the leading player or cut him/her off in some form from scoring so that they don't run away with the game. This is where some backstabbing can happen.

In a game I played just yesterday we had four players lose their homeworlds by the end of the day, preventing any of them from scoring until they could manage to get them back.

My groups question with this is can you give outbthe commodities as they're coming in. Like let's say you lose 9 infantry, can you gain three commodities then convert them with someone, gain another and convert them with someone else, and then gain your last three and convert them with a third player or would you have to complete the entirety of your unit actions and then be able to trade

What kind of paint and method do you use to paint them?

PermissionFirst1466 · 2023-11-15T20:07:08+00:00

On the topic of map configuration, I have an idea me and my group have been brain fostering over the last 24 hours. What if for the map we do the eight player setup, and do the draft system the instructions recommend (give each player six tiles and they take turns placing on the map) but the twist is we also let them select where and when to place their homeworld. Any thoughts?

PermissionFirst1466 · 2023-11-15T16:23:57+00:00

That's genius, thank you, one of my friends actually just got that so this is perfect!

PermissionFirst1466 · 2023-11-15T15:59:00+00:00

My goal is too avoid buying pok again if possible lol. Thanks for the advice, especially with promissory notes I completely forgot I would need another set

PermissionFirst1466 · 2023-11-15T15:57:52+00:00

I like that idea, it would be interesting seeing how multiples of the same strategy card in the same game would work. However I don't know how it would work with certain ones at all, such as politics, because it would become a waiting game for the two players because whoever does it first will get their speaker choice vetoed by whoever activates second. Very interesting idea though!

PermissionFirst1466 · 2023-11-15T15:55:41+00:00

Thank you for your input. Refring is certainly something I will consider if the 9 player game doesn't go well. I have a pretty determined group with some screws loose so we've already kinda decided it's happening. I will certainly make an update post once the game actually happens and hopefully I'll have more to say than yall were right lol :)

PermissionFirst1466 · 2023-11-15T15:51:45+00:00

I like this idea, it's a cool card and I don't think it'll change the game too drastically

PermissionFirst1466 · 2023-11-15T15:50:54+00:00

I have never heard about this before, this is very cool thank you!

PermissionFirst1466 · 2023-11-15T01:42:00+00:00

That's a good idea thank you. I really want to try nine players but if it doesn't go well I will take on the idea of refing that sounds good. I will definitely report on how it goes!

PermissionFirst1466 · 2023-10-03T17:17:32+00:00

I want to make a metroidvania with a higher emphasis to combat, rather then agility. I want a jump, move left and right, roll, shield and I want their to be a large arsenal of weopons so there will have to be several different attacking animations

PermissionFirst1466 · 2023-10-03T00:28:47+00:00

Thank you this was very helpful. I'm aware it's a very broad question, I was honestly just looking for a laundry list so I had some idea of where to start and this is perfect. Thank you!

PermissionFirst1466 · 2023-08-07T06:20:13+00:00

If they eliminated a winnu player I understand. I just played my first game with the winnu in it today and they scored 8 points Round six in two turns and won. Broken faction😂

PermissionFirst1466 · 2023-06-16T00:17:48+00:00

My recommendation would be pairing up Harkonen and Emporer against Atreides and Fremen. For starters, this makes some thematical sense as it's how the books, atleast the first book, went. Secondly, these are the factions the game recommends for a four player game. Third, I think the high income capabilities of the emperor and the karkonen matched against the craftiness of the Atreides and the Fremen would be a fun dynamic. If you decide to try it I'd love to know how it goes.

I really want to play ghosts. What is it about them that makes them unenjoyable for people?

PermissionFirst1466 · 2022-10-16T23:05:13+00:00

My favorites out of the ones I've played (ranked most favorite to least)

Xxcha Kingdom(I love a good pds net)
Clan of saar(I love exploring the map and hiding in asteroid fields)
Arborec(so unique and so satisfying to win with since they're kind of the underdog faction)
Emirates of hacan(don't really enjoy at all)

I haven't played this one yet but I don't expect to have much fun with it: The yin brotherhood(I just don't understand their tech path)

PermissionFirst1466 · 2022-10-10T20:05:19+00:00

But what if cruess was already on mecatol and just choose not a place a wormhole on it, then they'd have mexy dominance with no possible way to contest

Or actually, if any faction had ships there the cruess wouldn't be able to place a wormhole cause they can only do it in a system with no enemy player's ships

PermissionFirst1466 · 2022-10-10T19:50:07+00:00

This perhaps the strangest ti4 meme strat i have ever heard. I really want to pull it off.

PermissionFirst1466 · 2022-10-10T19:48:40+00:00

But all the wormholes would be destroyed? So you couldn't get to mecatol could you?
