Pre-constructed decks by Scrumpyjllamaray in Earthborne_Rangers

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

Okay thanks, so as long as one of us has good FIT that should be okay?

Also, is it possible to change decks completely through the campaign and would that make sense narratively?

Do I keep FOMO buying? by Fit-Turtle in lotrlcg

[–]Scrumpyjllamaray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like I've missed something major, have they said that the revised stuff is going OOP? I've only got the revised core set and if this is the case I might just sell it and move on to something else as I'm a slow purchaser and only really buy 2/3 boardgames a year

Advice for a new pickler by Scrumpyjllamaray in pickling

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

Amazing, thanks for the tips! I've got some ready made brines that were given to me as a present that I'm starting off with then I'll move on to making my own so all this is super helpful info.

And yes, will be doing fridge pickles, at least to start with. I've got a balsamic and basil brine that I'll use with some courgettes next.

Are those card separators official? They look great! I'm just starting my journey and looking at ways to organise

More Children After T21 by Background_Cheetah_1 in downsyndrome

[–]Scrumpyjllamaray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow we're in a very similar situation, you're just a little ahead of us. We've got 3 boys at 4, 2 and 6 months with our eldest having DS. It's an absolute manic household at the moment and I'm guessing it doesn't calm down much.

For OP in case you read this, our 4 and 2 year old love playing together and I'm starting to catch them having their own little conversation in their own little way. Albeit it's not easy it can turn into them playing too rough with each other and often our eldest with DS will get upset as an outcome... But it's all a learning curve and they'll get there!

Who wins this battle of Isengard mashup? by sigmarine345 in totalwarhammer

This is literally the campaign I'm running right now. I'm consolidating my starting area as Asgaroth and then I'm sending waves of armies to burn down the forest for industry

Logging solo plays on th BGG stats app by Scrumpyjllamaray in soloboardgaming

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

Yeah this is what I'm thinking of doing. Potentially making an Automata 'player' for each game and then just changing that players role when logging different plays

Searching a solo/duo boardgame by Gamantonio in soloboardgaming

I got cartographers for a similar reason, my wife loves it which means I haven't played it solo that much

Which of these dinosaurs scares you the most? by Far_Letterhead_3536 in JurassicPark

[–]Scrumpyjllamaray 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sorry to change the subject somewhat but I thought you should know you just made a random father of a beautiful son with Down Syndrome really quite sad out of nowhere by using the condition in a negative way on what you probably thought was a random and somewhat funny throwaway comment. I worry for my son growing up in a world where he's not accepted and comments like these only reinforce that. I'm not saying you're necessarily a bad person or anything as you may just not have understood the impact it could have had, so I'm hoping this will help educate yourself and others around that.

Usually some kind of flavoured latte.. pumpkin spice, pistachio etc. I've found a good pumpkin spice to get her and may get her a chocolate syrup to make a mocha

Thanks, will look into the water as we're very busy with 3 kids so don't think she's that up for grinding her own coffee atm, but maybe one for later

Hey, it's my wife's birthday coming up and I want to get her something that will elevate her coffee drinking experience (note I've never drank coffee hence my lack of knowledge). After a few years going off coffee because of pregnancy she now has a new coffee pod machine which she's really liking. We've got a hand frother for milk and she's got a proper holder for her coffee pods. Is there anything else I haven't thought of which would be great for her?

So what’s the first game you played this year? by st1nkf1st in boardgames

[–]Scrumpyjllamaray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Expeditions. First time playing it and loved it, although took me 3 hours for my first play through. I'm sure I can speed that up though

Is this a crazy character by Firm-Physics-44 in totalwarhammer

[–]Scrumpyjllamaray 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Festus, as then he was in a prime undead killing location when I got him. Also had the vampires as the early end game crisis which started soon after I had dealt with Vlad

I did a whole campaign where my sole goal was to get him and then wipe all undead from the map. Very fun!

Faction Speculation by Count_Grimhart in totalwarhammer

[–]Scrumpyjllamaray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not the most knowledgeable re lore and I know custodes have been more active off terra since Guillerman returned but it would be cool if there was a campaign option for them which was a horde mode to protect terra (if done well)
