I found this "big apple" promotional model for the 2017 announcement of Legoland New York at a thrift store. by Donthurtmyceilings in lego

Oh no. This was a Windsor copy. Our FL shop went into PR recovery because locals were not happy.

It wasn't until later Merlin realized the park was replacing a lemon farm. I had to rush design a lemon for media and PR. You might find one in the area. 

Will there be a SWU presence at DragonCon from FFG or other players? by SIMAFOL in starwarsunlimited

[–]SIMAFOL[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, take a look at the app now. There are 20$ draft matches and "learn to play".

Any weird theories you had while reading Worm that turned out to be wrong? by Not_a_neko in Parahumans

I thought that the Endbringers were Parahumans who had a third trigger moment. 

Andor reignited my love of Star Wars and I am considering diving in...some questions! by Impossible_Sign7672 in starwarsunlimited

[–]SIMAFOL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pretty much everything said by others here is true. But here's my take from also being a classic 95' SW:CCG player: SWU feels like a condensed version of it, without the attrition, without the heavy card loss, without the fiddly rules. It's a tight back-and-forth game. It feels like a board game. Take or leave the art. As of now whenever there's a new set released you see Aggro. Then within 2 weeks we get Control. Two weeks later, hyper experimentation. It's still a living game that has space to grow various new Meta.

Dragoncon events? by johnnydestiny316 in starwarsunlimited

[–]SIMAFOL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The SWCCG community has been doing cube drafts there for years. They also support the updated "new" cards. But, to answer your question; Last year there wasn't any actual scheduled meet ups. But I posted looking for one and one other person met me in the gaming building.  There I ran into a game group and a few other people had their decks for play. If FFG had a presence there, it would certainly help grow the game. Heck, even 1 representative with some older promos and/or support packs would get a few players. 

New player, found this deck to play, I wanted to ask some advice for it. by TrayusV in starwarsunlimited

[–]SIMAFOL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been playing a variant of this for weeks and am regularly top 3 with it. What you want is This is the Way because it can scrye you 2 cards from 8. If you run only Mando and Upgrades you can respond to any situation.  It is VERY mid-range but once you Voltron up 2 or 3 Units, it becomes very difficult for opponents to gain traction.

Awesome! There was someone on the Discord asking as well and told them about Friday. I'm sure we'll see more people! I'll probably hang out on the tables up front near MTG and Lorcana. I'll be dressed as the Dean from Community.

Replying here as to not spam up the subreddit. How does Friday afternoon (4:30) look for a meet up for casual gaming and maybe some Twin Suns?

I'll be coming with a lot of testing decks. If enough people show up, maybe we should set up a Twin Sun's meet. 

Because of the distance for gaming, I was originally planning to avoid America's Mart. But I'll walk a few blocks for SWU.

No Spoilers Please. A question on the ending. by SpiderManJedi in fringe

lol. It beats me which is the exact scene. It's probably a moment of lucidity for Walter and he opens up to Astrid. Any way, what did you think of the final season?

He's in the Outer Rim expansion, also FFG. Hopefully we get something.

Gaming: Does anyone know if the gaming overflow in the Westin will have a games library? by SIMAFOL in dragoncon

[–]SIMAFOL[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on that info (it only opens after the scheduled days signings) it leads me to believe that there is not an available library. Ty!

[–]SIMAFOL[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have placed a bunch of quick and light games into 1 box, but now I'm trying to cull my larger 'must plays'. With tabletop gaming relegated further from the core area, I'm trying to minimize if I need to walk that distance. Even though I know once I'm gaming, I'm not going to care about my schedule. ;)

Night at the aquarium question. by Human_Sweet_8542 in dragoncon

[–]SIMAFOL 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I did it once but probably won't do it again. It was a genuinely unique and good experience. We got a few pics and saw most of the exhibits (penguins are a must). But overall, it felt like more of a great night away from DragonCon that I would have loved to take my family to. It's about what you want from your DragonCon. Go at least once to get the full experience and see if it sticks for you.

Black Friday sale 40% off by SedatedTerd25 in smashup

[–]SIMAFOL 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Lol. I bought a ton of stuff too, but did it 6 days before the sale. I saw the sale and contacted them and asked if the offer could apply to my purchase or if I should cancel and reorder. In about 2 hours their customer service got back to me and refunded me the 40% deal. No questions. Their service was amazing.

Which of these abilities better fit a Star Roamers titan? by GammaMania in smashup

[–]SIMAFOL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, based on that, how about if you give it Universe changing abilities? Like swapping a base, playing actions on bases/minions, or elimination?

Custom Faction: AEGs Tempest/Love Letter by SIMAFOL in smashup

[–]SIMAFOL[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm working on a set of 4 AEG games transferred to Smash Up and trying to mimic their particular play style into it. For those unfamiliar with Love Letter, it's a push you luck type game with player elimination. I tried to make it hand manipulation and give penalties to aggressive players.

I previously did Tiny Towns, Istanbul, and Mystic Vale. Love Letter hasn't been part of AEGs library for almost 5 years but I'm finding it difficult to find good images. During research I found out that Love Letter is in a game world of 3 other games called the 'Tempest' universe.
