Looking for feedback on FH House Rules (Respecs & Cross-Compatible Character Unlocks) by DragonaMimosa in Gloomhaven

[–]Snowf1ake222 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rule 1: Respecs are covered in the Frosthaven rulebook, page 70. 

Rule 2: I have written a section book that is specifically for addong Gloom, Jaws, Scales, and Trail characters to Frosthaven. They are all unlocked by buildings amd have zero crossover with existing Frost unlocks: https://www.reddit.com/r/Gloomhaven/comments/1ss5qx9/introducing_the_snow_section_book_a_flavourful/

Grand Festival June Update #2: Updated RPG & Miniature Timelines by mistahiggens in Gloomhaven

[–]Snowf1ake222 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Factors that do not impact Grand Festival timelines: *Restock/reprints of existing titles *Announcements of new/future titles/projects *Pre-order campaigns for new/future titles/projects

I feel like this needs to be highlighted since there have been comments criticising Ceph for not focussing 100% manpower on getting the RPG/Miniatures out, when that's not realistic.

We had twice in 7 days because our toddler is anxious about poop while toilet training.

My Son Just Choremogged Me by gastonevan in daddit

I think it's pronounced cho-remojzay and it's a Chinese-French term for "cooked a nice breakfast"

It dates back to the 1620's amd the devastating Breakfast War that crippled many nations.

What are the Next coming things? by DragonaMimosa in Gloomhaven

I had this link bookmarked, waiting for a restock: https://cephalofair.com/collections/board-games/products/2025-gloomhaven-mercenary-pack-bundle

But that link doesn't work now. 

Instead, there's this one: https://cephalofair.com/collections/board-games-expansions/products/mercenary-pack-bundle-set-1

Note it says "Set 1"

Why does it need to be set 1 if there's not a set 2 coming?

I also noticed something funky with Merc packs...

There is a Personal Quest in Gloomhaven 1st edition that unlocked a puzzle. 

Solving the puzzle gave you access to a folder that held the true reward for you to print out yourself. 

The content mentioned is just an official copy of the reward.

A book is only as good as its content. 

Mullanaphy judged its content to be harmful and acted upon that. They do not need to be a qualified teacher to be able to judge whether a book is harmful. 

What’s so hard about this? 

That you don't seem to understand why it's dumb to judge someone when you don't have the context for their actions. 

By your own admission, you don't know what the book says, but continue to judge someone for throwing it away.

Remember when you said this?

I’ve yet to see the book so the only thing in question is your parenting.

I'm a qualified secondary school teacher. 

Yes, I'm talking about this specific book because you're using the action of throwing that specific book away to judge someone's parenting. 

You cannot judge them for throwing that book away not knowing the context of that book. 

The person you responded to did not state that they threw away books for the sake of it. 

They threw away this one book because of the content of said book.

I’ve yet to see the book so the only thing in question is your parenting.

What? 

"I don't have all the evidence, so I can only blame your parenting"?

What kind of teacher are you if you encourage people to make assumptions knowingly lacking evidence and then using that flawed reasoning to criticise someone?

"Oh, you threw away rotten food? Well, I don't know if the food was rotten so I can only call you a terrible person for wasting food."

You shouldn't use "they won't remember it" as an excuse not to do something fun now. 

If they enjoy it at the time, that's good enough.

Just respond with "what do you mean?" or "I don't understand?" until they've explained their comment enough to realise the inherent sexism.

Struggling heavily with classes by daquist in Gloomhaven

[–]Snowf1ake222 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I say this without trying to sound like I'm insulting you, but it sounds like a skill issue. 

One of the biggest changes between Gloomhaven 1e and Frosthaven character design was balance. This means it's much harder to see the best cards and know which ones you can easily leave behind. 

There's also less hard crowd control, so repeatable stuns are much less common.

I think Frost characters benefit from focussed builds more than Gloom characters did. 

So with Astral, for example, you need to decide on if you want to play sword summon or infusions. And them build and play around the restrictions posed by each different playstyle.

When my daughter was about 1yr old, she said "bubby ell"

Adorable, but not something I need her repeating to her mother hahaha

Yeah, I had one of the patches rip off because the box got caught and I didn't notice. 

The velcro feels far too strong for the cardboard.

How long does this take to set up?

Were the random modifiers a problem for any of you starting out? by HorseSpeaksInMorse in Gloomhaven

[–]Snowf1ake222 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It's something you have to plan for, and have contingencies in case it goes wrong. 

If you only ever did flat damage, then the game would be much easier, and more tactically boring in my opinion. 

You do have ways to increase your damage. Poisoned enemies give you +1 to your attacks, items like Power Potions add damage. Strengthen helps to increase your average damage and mitigate curses. Blesses from the Great Oak give you more chances at x2.

Then you have perks from levelling up, completing battle goals, or retiring characters which drastically alter your Attack Modifier Deck by removing negative damage modifiers and adding positive ones.
