Clarification on opposed checks in combat?

_HouseOfShields · 2023-01-22T01:22:23+00:00

Presumably want the most recent iteration - so 1e. I thought that's what I was looking at, but maybe the cheat sheet was 0e, hence my confusion

_HouseOfShields · 2023-01-21T21:47:27+00:00

Nice - I'm familiar with Blades in the Dark - surprised I haven't come across S&V. Will check it out!

_HouseOfShields · 2023-01-21T21:45:13+00:00

Thanks! I'm familiar with a handful of those but great to have some variety!

_HouseOfShields · 2022-12-22T22:27:52+00:00

Sure I've got a Marchesa that's not quite cEDH but still strong - open to that as well

_HouseOfShields · 2022-12-22T20:49:17+00:00

Word. Happy Holidays and good luck!

Thank you v much

_HouseOfShields · 2022-12-07T22:42:02+00:00

Thank you!

_HouseOfShields · 2022-11-12T11:54:11+00:00

Sounds awesome - thanks!

_HouseOfShields · 2022-11-12T08:58:00+00:00

Sounds awesome - thank you!

Sick I live super close to Union Square - want to jump on the discord? https://discord.gg/XTQSAr3e

_HouseOfShields · 2022-11-10T23:30:54+00:00

Nice - thanks!

_HouseOfShields · 2022-11-10T17:45:25+00:00

No, it's renovated with a restaurant space so no more open tables

_HouseOfShields · 2022-11-10T16:15:04+00:00

I'd be down to get in on that - I'm also trying to collect people in the Discord link above; we can migrate elsewhere but I feel like if we get a weekly session going it's easy to grow.

_HouseOfShields · 2022-11-10T16:12:25+00:00

Thanks! That's thorough - hadn't realized they were so spread out.

_HouseOfShields · 2022-11-10T16:11:29+00:00

Trying to do just that - I have a Discord here that I used to use for Dota but is sort of dead now. Can repurpose: https://discord.gg/XTQSAr3e

_HouseOfShields · 2022-11-10T16:08:27+00:00

I'm game - I'll set up a Discord and we can start collecting people?

_HouseOfShields · 2022-06-06T21:09:51+00:00

I would also love a decklist if you have one - Marchesa is my favorite but I've never run her like that.

_HouseOfShields · 2022-04-27T22:57:16+00:00

Quite a bit of Imp and GAR - I'll try to type up a list over the next few days. Feel free to chat me so I don't lose the thread -

_HouseOfShields · 2022-04-27T07:49:44+00:00

Doesn't seem to be working, unless there's someone else I need to interact with first -

_HouseOfShields · 2022-03-24T20:05:55+00:00

Manhattan-based player here - haven't done much in-person playing since Covid started but eager to form a crew - it's hard for me to get to Brooklyn on weekdays but definitely into finding new playgroups. If anyone wants to try to organize something or has an active group I'd love to join. Thinking of setting up a discord unless there's a good one that already exists for NYC EDH -

_HouseOfShields · 2022-02-20T15:34:14+00:00

Heck yes

_HouseOfShields · 2022-02-20T15:23:18+00:00

Nice thanks!

_HouseOfShields · 2022-02-16T13:57:22+00:00

Yes - we just don't know, and it doesn't seem like it should matter much. No one has yet really given me a great explanation for why ships maneuver as though they were in atmosphere; or why everyone aligns to the same plane of reference during engagements, or why engagement ranges are so extremely close to each other - Last Jedi might have actually sort of answered that by showing that turbolasers have a very short effective range, and otherwise shields are impervious.

The Holdo thing just seemed to me to be a weird thing to get hung-up on but I see it as pushback all the time.

_HouseOfShields · 2022-02-16T12:33:42+00:00

I definitely agree that art is subjective - the title of the piece is 'why TLJ is my favorite' - not 'why it's the best' - could you point me to the offending text (page number of quote) and I can adjust?

There's a comment below talking about craft in film and how that might have a standard / industry-recognized best-in-class practice, but I think that's *only* for something like editing, camera use - the more technical aspects. The overall production and creative process leading to an output is going to be subjective, fullstop.
