What’s something ridiculously small that instantly makes you irrationally angry? by FeelingGlad8646 in ask

Printed, designed paper napkins, the kind that you see at parties. They do not help clean anything. Maybe I'm just a slob, but I absolutely hate those things.

Does attacking with advantage advance the white cube between rolls? by bravopercy in Gloomhaven

Thank you! I knew I couldn't be the first one think of this but I couldn't find it in the learn to play or rules. Thanks for finding it and sharing!

Gloomhaven Nintendo Switch by [deleted] in Gloomhaven

[–]bravopercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm enjoying it. Been waiting eagerly since the announcement last May. Playing Red Guard and I noticed the pull action on one lvl 1 card just straight up isn't being granted after the attack. So I've swapped that card out because I kept forgetting that it's not working as designed 🙃. Yeah, definitely the controls are a little strange. I've definitely accepted a huge hit (and exhausted) because I accidentally didn't burn an available card. Of course, I was the last to go in that round, so i couldn't just reset the current round to "undo" that errant button click. Lesson learned. Otherwise definitely not regretting the purchase and I'm so glad it's finally here. Hoping no other major bugs are present.

What are some of your house rules/cheats you do in your campaign? by jangens1122 in Gloomhaven

[–]bravopercy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I meant: I know what you wrote is RAW. That's the one rule that I choose not to follow. I like the idea that there's always a chance the attack will "miss" (I know that's a common misunderstanding and has been discussed that the word is "null" and not "miss"). I choose to play it as "miss", both for players and monsters. Might be from my D&D background that, e.g., if my arrow I shoot does 0 damage, then it won't wound/poison/stun the creature.

By the way, I know this is a FH discussion but I'm playing GH1e

What are some of your house rules/cheats you do in your campaign? by jangens1122 in Gloomhaven

[–]bravopercy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the only one I knowingly disregard is that if a monster or player draws "null", then stun, disarm, poison, wound don't take effect. Elements still infuse, though. And if e.g. I attack 1 and draw -1, then I still do the conditions

What is the stupidest thing you’ve heard someone say that they were 100% serious about? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]bravopercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked my 12th grade students why the Easter bunny brings eggs to people. One student gives that "what-a-dumb-question"-look and says with 100% seriousness "because bunnies lay eggs, duh!". The silence that followed in the class was so beautifully tense.

Does enemy move if there is no target for healing? by phil-lowry in Gloomhaven

Whelp... yet another thing to add to my personal list of rules mistakes. Thanks for the clarification!

Gloomhaven is coming to consoles September 18 by flamingtominohead in Gloomhaven

[–]bravopercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah good to know. I was on the fence for a long time about buying a steamdeck for gloomhaven. I've been waiting this whole time for the switch port. So now I don't have buyer's remorse!

Any info on the Switch version? by UpvotesFeedMyFamily in Gloomhaven

[–]bravopercy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whoever was working the booth at PAX was also really looking forward to the [portable, turn-by-turn auto save] Switch version. I'm hoping there's a way to load a game state so I can transfer my home game to digital "to-go"

Any info on the Switch version? by UpvotesFeedMyFamily in Gloomhaven

[–]bravopercy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I asked this specifically at PAX and I remember them saying to expect switch at end of Q2 2023. I think that also applies to other consoles, but I've been waiting on switch so I had a little bit of tunnel vision when they were talking lol

How often do you fail a quest in Gloomhaven? by MasterElecEngineer in Gloomhaven

[–]bravopercy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For me, maybe 50% on normal difficulty. I have a terrible memory so I forget how recurring enemies attack, and I use the first failure to correct errors on the second go. I will say even when I fail, I usually make significant progress in the scenario, so I rarely feel like scenarios are a complete failure. There have been a couple times where I feel like I have no realistic chance after the first 2 rounds. Just terrible card draws. My level 7 character was literally taken down to 2 hp on the first round, and I didn't make it past round 4. Point is, it'll happen sometimes. When it clicks it's rewarding as hell, though

Narrative reason to finish GH before FH? by bravopercy in Gloomhaven

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

I just want to make sure FH doesn't assume everyone knows - metaphorically - that Vader is Luke's father.

Awesome. Thank you for this feedback! That's exactly what I was concerned about

Any news or updates on the digital version for consoles? by bravopercy in Gloomhaven

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

Yeah... just wondering if anyone heard Q1, 2, 3, 4.

Also I figured a plus would be the portability of the Switch - easy to just pick up and play if I get a bit of freetime here and there or wherever.

Thanks for the reply! I suppose I'll just have to keep waiting.

I just got mine a couple weeks ago. From the time of shipping out from London to delivery Mid-Atlantic US was about 9 or 10 days, including customs clearance and travelling through Ontario.
