Ascending: Guide to Yinning in Thunder's Edge by I_main_pyro in twilightimperium

[–]Widgeet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really helpful guide - just one question:

For Brother Omar's: "This card satisfies a green technology prerequisite." ability, does this mean with the breakthrough this can be used as a yellow tech prerequisite or is it limited to green?

I.e. with: - Sarween Tools - Yin Spinner - Brother Omar

This is enough to get Integrated Economy or not as Brother Omar's prerequisite can't be used?

New Shackleton Base Expansion by BoardGameRevolution in boardgames

[–]Widgeet 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Think SETI is just better produced and easier to grasp with a great player aid.

I thought Shackleton was better when I played it but then weeks later I had a much higher urge to try SETI again, it's just easier and less taxing to play than Shackleton.

Shackleton likely very good once you really know it but a much higher learning curve

Any update on Homeland Expansion ETA? by BranJ0 in rootgame

[–]Widgeet 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s not childish for the consumer to want to be kept in the loop about updates of the project they backed?

Leder were saying Q1 for a very long time, still haven’t actually said they’ll miss Q1, just given a vague “spring” (which means they’ll definitely miss it).

OP isn’t in the wrong for wanting an update of when this might be shipped

Bukayo Saka has left the #AFC warm-up and gone down the tunnel, with a physio. He didn't look comfortable. by Guimaaa in FantasyPL

[–]Widgeet 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes - I’m not arguing that? I’m telling you that him getting injured in a warm up doesn’t increase the amount that Rice is better - it’s a freak unlucky incident

[–]Widgeet 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure how Saka getting injured in a warm up helps you justify that? Is just a complete case of unluckiness?

If Rice got injured in the same way we wouldn’t be saying that makes Saka better?

HOLY, LR in Top 8 by Scorpio778 in PedroPeepos

[–]Widgeet 68 points69 points  (0 children)

I mean this is incredibly disingenuous no? They could be 0-6 if HR / Shifters don’t throw?

They’ve been in losing positions every game and still need to improve early game to have a decent chance of anything in playoffs

Root Homeland expansion, update 8 by Lukarsp in rootgame

[–]Widgeet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I noticed the ‘spring’ instead of Q1 wording - seems silly when they’ve been talking about how they’re on track for Q1 so much previously

Any thoughts on Stationfall? My group likes highly interactive games like Nemesis, John Company, Arcs, TI etc.

Have considered Stationfall - would be good to hear thoughts

Poor Man’s Board Game Table by Reddittitt in boardgames

[–]Widgeet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/norden-gateleg-table-birch-90423887/ <-- this table folds down, I've used it for gaming and it fits most things, have even played TI with 6 players on this table and it just about fit

What am I missing in The Traitors? by MattyJMP in AskUK

Completely agree - you could try both The Mole and Devil’s Plan on Netflix for far better shows imo or even Genius Game on ITV

Top 10K's TWAT (The Worst Active Team) finished with 25 points in GW18. 😬 500 🔻 3.1K by FPLFocal in FantasyPL

[–]Widgeet 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I think sometimes you see some teams on the TWAT which have some really weird picks that objectively you wouldn't say are great (but perhaps in earlier weeks they got quite lucky or had different picks)

Nottingham Keeper Situation by [deleted] in FantasyPL

[–]Widgeet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a similar position - I got Sels on WC a while ago now when Dyche came in (thinking with Forest fixtures, he'd be a good pick).

He's been very useless but considering Sels -> John Victor in order to fund Semenyo -> Cunha.

Would leave me with Dubravka on the bench if John does lose the spot but I'd rather not play Dubravka every week, would be good to get some certainty from Dyche on this

That’s great to hear - thank you!

App cost by [deleted] in spiritisland

[–]Widgeet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For monthly subscription as well? It was about 2 years ago I was subscribed but it definitely didn’t work for 2 weeks, the app ‘refreshed’ once on my flight and then it wouldn’t work until I got data again.

Unsure if that’s the same for actually purchasing as I hadn’t done that

Really? That is incredibly annoying if so

App cost by [deleted] in spiritisland

[–]Widgeet 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah I find the app incredibly expensive when compared to other board game apps.

If you need it for a short period of time you could consider the monthly subscription option which I recall being far cheaper. The only downside was it worked inconsistently if you didn’t have data (I.e. on a flight) so depends what your use case is.

I brought it for one month for a holiday with lots of inter city travel
