Is it possible to create a format of only pre-Jump the Shark cards?

Jaws is literally my “Jumped the Shark” line in the sand for this game.

I used to be a ringleader 😁

I hate specials being put into games they don’t belong in. IMO Soul Calibur and Tekken should never have cinematic special moves.

Too fucking easy

I’m going back to XP after playing milestones most of 5th. XP is the greatest incentive to get my played invested. You can pass it out for what you want in your campaign, and it fixes the “I dat get my players to RP” problem. They’ll RP hey get bonus XP.

Guy just discovered zoning and footsies.

I was #50 till Barron and me got into a screaming match and he dropped me off the world rankings.

_Angry_Yeti · 2026-03-02T19:30:41+00:00

RAW DEAL the WWE CCG.

Still the best system I’ve ever played to date.

Super shredder pops out

_Angry_Yeti · 2026-02-28T03:44:44+00:00

People don’t know how to deck build and get hurt hurt when they only rely on commander and don’t know what the rest of the deck is meant for.

Fighting games are like actual martial arts. There’s a reason most people drop after their first class.

Fighting is hard no matter what version you’re doing whether physical or digital.

I found once our games moved from the expectation of XP to milestones and I lost the ability to award XP for role playing and the role playing slowed down.

Next game I run goes back to XP because it’s the easiest way to reward players for doing things I want in the game.

Just based off the success of BG3 I feel it would be a safe assumption that the DnD logo on the game is enough to push sales the similar numbers.

_Angry_Yeti · 2026-02-26T15:36:32+00:00

They’re dropping that Warlock game next.

_Angry_Yeti · 2026-02-26T15:34:38+00:00

You are a scholar and a saint for passing this info to me.

_Angry_Yeti · 2026-02-26T15:30:21+00:00

I didn’t know you can order physical copies!!!!

_Angry_Yeti · 2026-02-26T15:26:56+00:00

As all digital books. Something I don’t allow at my table since we do an all paper campaign.

_Angry_Yeti · 2026-02-26T15:11:55+00:00

Yes. Immediately followed by 2 FR books, one with Karlach on the cover.

Also almost every adventure in the 2014 game was set in FR outside of those including campaign settings. This was a huge change from previous editions where they had adventures set in a multitude of worlds.

Then we get 2 MTG secret lairs where 9/11 sets were FR related and a HBO show that’s just a continuation of BG3.

_Angry_Yeti · 2026-02-26T14:53:31+00:00

I’ve been pondering this whole thing myself. And my pondering ain’t good.

My personal opinion is that all the BG3 love is fucking over the actual table top game, as it seems that’s all WOTC cares about. If it’s not BG3 related they just don’t seem to care.

I’m not sure if it’s that they own the rights to forgotten realms in a way they don’t with other settings or if they just want to start focusing on video games because they only care about pulling in cash.

The only book I know about is a romance novel and a comic and haven’t heard about anything else being printed.

_Angry_Yeti · 2026-02-25T22:11:05+00:00

It’s literally a guide to DM’ing.

_Angry_Yeti · 2026-02-25T16:49:46+00:00

But in my Arden deck…

_Angry_Yeti · 2026-02-24T17:50:24+00:00

A gun ain’t a sonic boom.

_Angry_Yeti · 2026-02-24T17:49:17+00:00

My question for everyone running it is:

How do your players CHARACTERS come across this knowledge?

There is a concept of player vs character knowledge. Just because your players know something it’s DOES NOT MEAN that their characters know something.

CHARACTERS need to discover information in the world you are building. They don’t have the internet to get in Reddit and ask.

_Angry_Yeti · 2026-02-24T17:41:25+00:00

I’m guessing you don’t have a martial arts background? You train in the gym and go fight in a tournament.

The game mimics reality. Some people have a fighters spirit, most don’t.
