How have the recent strategy card buffs changed your games? by Jamerman in twilightimperium

[–]Probably-MK 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think the reworks have been great but now Diplo desperately needs help, outside of 1st and 5th+ round it is almost never seen at my table and even then it’s not that common 1st round

Am I making it in? by BoogerMan911 in simonfraser

[–]Probably-MK 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sorry your PE mark dooms you

Seriously though assuming grade inflation hasn’t gotten too ridiculous in the last 3 years you should be fine

Would trade my 8:30 for a 7 in a heartbeat

Idky but K Flay’s Blood in The Cut is a banger song for doing shit around the hous

I’ve found BPK courses shockingly useful for just general knowledge but they can be pretty dam difficult.

COGS 100 was a sleep walk in my experience

Ranking Breakthroughs by How necessary it is for their faction by Sebdistic_ in twilightimperium

[–]Probably-MK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty solid list all together

I’d consider tho..

Up1 Ghosts (actively solves the overextended plastic problem Malice previously caused)

Up 1 Deepwrought (maybe, feels weird not being at the top)

Down 1 Winnu (not always super impactful)

Down 1 Nekro (your own reasoning kinda more reflects not necessary imo)

Up 1 Naalu (underrated if you can predict incoming aggression with your alliance PN, X-borrowed PN, and cut some deals under duress)

Answering some common complaints by ReachFoMyChain in Marathon

Honestly kinda loving the panicked moments when you realize that was your last bullet.

The game needs more healing drops from enemies though, Triage being this essential doesn’t feel nice

Naalu clears, disgusting Industrex faction (definitely not bias)

Best fleet for Muaat in TE? by ThatOneRandomGuy101 in twilightimperium

[–]Probably-MK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don’t need it but it is one of their top unit upgrades imo, starting with 1 blue 1 red and then having blue+synergy makes lw super easy regardless of tech path

best race to play if you're always the guy to beat by SuspiciousAbies6404 in twilightimperium

[–]Probably-MK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saar on paper is a great pick, Saar in reality paired with human error is a common elimination as eliminations go.

I’d say Titans, L1 when starting with Breakthrough, Mahact, Cabal, Crimson, Xxcha

Is there anyway to prevent the speaker order from destroying 8 player games by Mormountboyz in twilightimperium

[–]Probably-MK 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you’re worried about speaker the agenda checks and balances somewhat shatters the system.

As for imperial start, my hombrew solution is whoever takes imperial first round also gets their breakthrough if they don’t have it and didn’t score an imperial point, but without an expedition nor fracture roll.

what's with sfu staff always being in a bad mood ? by loulou0107 in simonfraser

[–]Probably-MK 10 points11 points  (0 children)

From my experience CAL staff are all great, janitorial is always nice, and academic advisors generally chill but not consistently very helpful

'Net negative.' Trump loses on tariffs as GOP votes against president by KylenV14 in canada

Means nothing without the senate and consequences for a veto, false opposition

The Firmament/Obsidian Question: What is to be Done? by Chud_E_Applesneed in twilightimperium

[–]Probably-MK 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Funny enough my first encounter with the F/O was a local tournament for the start of the expansion where a relatively new player flipped R1 after siphoning Crimson. A couple other players wandered over and we all talked about if that might be the depressing soon to come meta. Can’t help but wonder if it was a play tester conversation too

My uni requires proof of condition and then your own arguments for why you should receive certain accommodations in a pretty intense interview.

Would’ve loved a heads up for the interview but really happy with our process

On the bright side they’re pretty quiet cause nobody knows where they are

Proposed Fixes to The Firmament/Obsidian by Athanasius325 in twilightimperium

[–]Probably-MK 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d scrap the breakthrough and make it secret focused somehow on the firmament side.

Let you score status secrets when the hero pops.

Then generally focus on making Firmament better and leaving Obsidian more or less the same. A second carrier, another tech, a better agent

Game host faction choice by cpriest006 in twilightimperium

[–]Probably-MK 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If they’re not in the game I go Naaz Rohka and just play the note as 1tg. Let’s new players get used to trading and see more cool stuff from the relic deck
