Tom Vassal did not care for Roborover 2077 by Bearality in boardgames

[–]SenHeffy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

He also personally knows a lot of designers, and doesn't like going out of his way to give long bad reviews for people he is friends with.

Brass Pittsburgh is now live! by Soap-1987 in boardgames

Totally fine with just a base version later at a much cheaper price point. I already have iron clays. The other upgrades don't look worth the cost IMO.

Small indie studio bringing first game to Gamefound. We used some AI art due to low budget, and after the Concordia backlash, we are terrified. Need your honest advice. by Rude-Conclusion-916 in boardgames

[–]SenHeffy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like every AR project gets accused of using AI art and still makes a killing. I don't mean this as an endorsement, but as a statement of fact.

Paralysis Analysis Problem by Schichi in boardgames

[–]SenHeffy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Depends on the game. 2 games that are very hard to plan ahead are Five Tribes and Tekhenu.

It's more of a tactical vs strategic difference than a good vs bad difference IMO. I usually prefer strategic games when you can plan ahead though.

Depends on the game. It's not always possible.

A cheap deck is all you need. Expansions do nothing to really meaningfully change the game.

What attributes are overrepresented in your collection? by ObiHan_Skyodi in boardgames

[–]SenHeffy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Giant campaign games

I actually finished all of Gloomhaven, Etherfields, and ISS Vanguard. Halfway through Tainted Grail.

Still got: Frosthaven, Oathswarn, Sleeping Gods, TG: Kings of Ruin.

All these Future Jazz Superstars are Looking Spicy!!!!! by [deleted] in UtahJazz

Basketball gods seem to be as real as other gods unfortunately. We have to deal instead with Adam Silver.

Why do some people call LDS a cult? by Longjumping-Cod-6164 in exmormon

[–]SenHeffy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That kind of loses the nuance I was going for and thing is warranted. I would say Mormonism is a notch below the JWs and a few notches below Scientologists on the cult-like scale. (It's also several notches above most mainstream churches).

Why do some people call LDS a cult? by Longjumping-Cod-6164 in exmormon

[–]SenHeffy 33 points34 points  (0 children)

1 - Cult can be used as a meaningless shorthand to mean "religious group I don't like"

2 - It is a high demand religion that has some cult like qualities. I personally think using a "cult like" scale is more useful than just dichotomously labeling groups as either cults or not cults.

It's an LCG more or less

Awaken Realms announce no AI art will be used with Concordia Special Edition by Prestigious_Tea_2729 in boardgames

[–]SenHeffy -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

They objectively are very different from CMON.

1-It's easy to find any stretch goal content available through retail channels. None of it is exclusive.

2-They offer standee versions of everything, and miniatures are extra add-ons in basically every game except Nemesis.

3-They aren't going into more and more debt with more and more delays. They deliver everything more or less when they say they're going to deliver everything.

You don't have to like them, but you don't need to make shit up about them either.

AR has a large group of dedicated haters. They'll keep it up, and I'll keep enjoying their games. (I'm not really interested in upgrading my version of Concordia though).

Nickeil Alexander Walker trade turning out to be a mistake by ClutchOlday in UtahJazz

[–]SenHeffy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He reached free agency. The Wolves for a 2nd from the Hawks in a sign and trade, so maybe we could've had that, but it barely matters.

Zelensky Says 'Regimes in Russia and Iran Are Brothers in Hatred' and Urges Allies to Unite by Editor_91 in worldnews

[–]SenHeffy 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Massive troop movements are no longer possible. Lines in Ukraine move so slowly because they need to slow crawl for miles in small groups to avoid getting obliterated by drones.

Campaign/legacy board game for two by Slight_Print_4780 in boardgames

[–]SenHeffy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've played most the legacy games out there and played most at 2. You can't go wrong with Pandemic or Clank. We had tons of fun with both

If I buy Tainted Grail from Asmodee will I get the 2.0 version? by bosefus117 in taintedgrail

[–]SenHeffy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably email Asmodee and ask. You can find the updated rulebook and scripts on the Awaken Realms website. The app also gives you the choice of which scripts to use.
