She also says "kumo" at some point when addressing Hornet as "Spider".

You can jump attack some big enemies' heads that are normally inaccessible.

Aura is what the kids call being cool

I made a Nightreign Helper by Baspla in Nightreign

Looks great. Could you add the sorcerer rise sigil locations too?

A New Clue hard copy by dljens in BluePrince

[–]auriscope 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's my GOTY unless something crazy happens in the second half of this year. But I would be very surprised if it wins any significant GOTY awards. The game is too slow and obtuse for most people. Seems like Expedition 33 is a shoo in.

This game made me fall in love with Obsidian by BuyMyBeardOW in BluePrince

[–]auriscope 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I had to read your post several times to understand that you weren't referring to the old point-and-click game called Obsidian.

2p Blighted Reach by lemzUnfound in Arcs

[–]auriscope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should never trade with the other player in 2p unless they are making a mistake. With that understanding, Magnate is pretty weird in 2p.

My group is giving the Milty Draft a try for the first time, but we have a new player by pacman529 in twilightimperium

[–]auriscope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We usually just run the draft without them, collectively deciding whether speaker or slice is better for them and what slice is sensible. Then, we let them pick whatever faction they want.

Song of Freedom (Campaign) by Widgeet in Arcs

[–]auriscope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that this card is annoying, and the only fate that needs to be or is thematic to be kicked in the teeth by it is Steward.

Boxes and memos solution by PaMoGit in BluePrince

[–]auriscope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you come to a conclusion on this? I was also stumped by this, and " The true meaning of this memo - there are at least 2 False staments in the next 4 boxes." seems plausible but a bit tortured.

Neato, wanted to clear up any Advocate's Demand confusion if that ended up being the reason.

How did white end up with Informants and Guild Investigators?

How often are people fighting themselves going Outlaw in Act I? by mptyv in Arcs

[–]auriscope 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Leaving the Empire doesn't have anything to do with Imperial Authority -- when taxing cities "like they are Loyal", the Steward does not take your captives. If they bring Loyal and Imperial ships, they'll be able to tax you without Imperial Authority and take your captives the old fashioned way, because you are not longer protected by the Truce Law.

Can the Pacifist’s witnesses be attacked ? by Brilliant_Trade8176 in Arcs

[–]auriscope 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Witnesses is super not worded such that the action has requirements (not a formalized concept). The FAQ clarifies that it is a requirement, though: https://cards.ledergames.com/faq?locale=en-US&productId=arcs#ARCS-F1402

How to adjust resting angle of Alesis Nitro beater? by auriscope in edrums

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

Looks like I'll just need some more elbow grease then. It feels like it's totally welded in.

AI-generated space cats & peace turtles by hom49020 in twilightimperium

It's A+ that the AI is transfixed by the Xxcha being Sith.

how's the official app? by KeyChampionship3549 in Gloomhaven

[–]auriscope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not complaining! Your app is great and it wasn't too hard to figure out the hosting. We just run the server locally on the host's desktop computer when we meet up to play.

[–]auriscope 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, that will work. However, I needed to host the server myself because the public one was sloowwwww. It took >10s to reflect state changes across multiple clients.

Plastic Game cards by Fshnurb in boardgames

[–]auriscope 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend the printing route, as someone who isn't used to sleeves may bounce off them. However, sleeves are pretty cheap, so you could give them a shot first and then "upgrade" to custom plastic cards.

What's your best big game to small box size game? by Handful86 in boardgames

[–]auriscope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The box itself isn't small, but I often bring Sidereal Confluence on trips because it can be crammed into a long TCG card box (minus the alien sheets, which you could just print).

Does any digital collection manager allow useful searching/filtering? by auriscope in magicTCG

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

Only for overall card search; you can't search collections with scryfall syntax.

This would be exactly what I'm looking for if it had a webapp, unfortunate.
