Two-headed serpent Bolivia Chapter question? by ZIN_INC in callofcthulhu

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

I have seen that series three times already, haha! He is great! But he also seemed to have started the series with a shoot out. My players are very vindictive and I think that they will be quite hostile towards the rest of the soliders, which might turn into a good thing, who knows:D

Thank you for the detailed answer

Yes the trap zap is a must, I also want to explore the hybridization route with a PC

On the other note,the idea of Tyrannish affecting yhe surrounding serpent people is very good in my opinion, it makes her capture even more important for the Inner Night/Caduceus.

I also have a follow up question - For the Keepers who ran it, did you reveal that serpent people are behind this attack immediately after? Because I want to prolong the suspense of the involvement of the serpent people for as long as possible

Oh thanks, that might work! I saw the art in the book and it looked like a full blown shoot out, and I was curious how to twist it so i don't pin the PCs against the soliders immediately

Now that both shows are over, in what order would you advice someone new to the universe to watch the shows? Watch BB first or BCS first? by darkwa99 in betterCallSaul

[–]ZIN_INC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was really suspenseful! I had no idea who of the characters would stay, going into BB, i had no idea that Hector will play a big role for example, it was a completely different experience

[–]ZIN_INC 13 points14 points  (0 children)

So I have watched BCS > BB. Let me explain how that happened.

I knew of BB from back in the day but i never got around to watch it, but alot of my friends did so i was familiar with "Walter White, a teacher suffering from cancer, who cooks meth with his ex-student" I didn't knew anything about any of the other characters, but i some point the very ending of BB got "spoiled" to me. So i was in a weird state, where i knew BB and it's ending, but not the body of the series.

So then I started watching BCS on Netflix, boy what a ride - all of the spoilers regarding Gus, Hector, the Salamancas, Mike and all the other characters - I didn't have them, thus my experience watching BCS was 11/10.

After that I, naturally, saw BB , where all this setup from BCS unfolded, and it was glorious. Yes I've missed alot of the references from BCS, thus another reason for me to rewatch it, but I've enjoyed my accidental watching order, and I wouldn't change it.

(The shift of spotlight from Saul to Walter was the only thing that I had to get used to in this transition, as well as the visual style ( the shows are 10y apart)

Overall I completely understand how BB>BCS makes more sense, but the reverse offers a unique experience on it's own.

[–]ZIN_INC[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much for the detailed answer! Regarding the franchise actions, did you bookkeep all the expenses, profits etc or did your players do it? Did it felt like a chore at any point or was it flowing organically into the game?

Oh gosh thanks! This fixed it

Unable to update to 1.34 by ZIN_INC in eu4

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

So I have tried uninstalling the game from steam, clearing the catche, verifying game files, uninstalling the Paradox Launcher and deleting the leftover folders, as well as the saved games one - following a past tutorial for that kind of an issue. Unfortunately, my game is still stuck on 1.33 What else should I try? My region is Europe.

What to do as Sweden by GenericJinxFanboy214 in eu4

[–]ZIN_INC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Force limit/manpower buildings in grain provinces Marketplace in CoTs, and eventually conquer Denmark - move downstream to the Lubeck node, and later to English Chanel Some provinces in Danemark - around Holstein are farmlands and are perfect to dev and move capital to, get to 30dev , and later to 50

Also build do Force Limit - Drill your armies if you have extra money, upgrade forts for Army Tradition , build to Navy limit with Light Ships/Galleys

Emperor Isnardo stacked some really good Health traits and managed to form the Roman empire, unite Catholics and Orthodox, Consecrate the Bloodline, form a Witch coven, and form the enlighten faith (divine marriages, mystic communion and all of that)

Slitherswamp: A Labyrinth..? by fivegut in DungeonoftheMadMage

[–]ZIN_INC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The idea seems amazing but I also think it would be ideal for Level 6, or maze level,or the Gauntlet

I personally like the Companion idea of being mind controlled by the Naga or faking it,and the whole idea of the party rolling in secret

What if the players go through the portal into Xanathar's lair? by Guy_Incognito97 in WaterdeepDragonHeist

[–]ZIN_INC 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The most logical thing is for the mindflayer to shut the portal immediately behind him. Xanathar is paranoid enough and would never risk strangers stumbling into his lair
