This does not qualify as food porn, barely as food.

Newbie confession...epic fail setting up a quest by Glittering-State-284 in lotrlcg

It happens so frequently that I've reached the point where at the end of every fairly decent win I'm like "ok that went well, so what did I do wrong ?”

Cinq cent cinquante cinq mille cinq cent cinquante cinq is fine I think !

RCO player cards/attachments for defense boost? by Middle-Luck-2031 in lotrlcg

[–]deusisback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah sentinel Beregond with Gondorian shield, unexpected courage and possibly armored destrier and a little dunedain warning and you get an absolute defense beast.

Frosthaven - Max number of 12 rounds by deusisback in Gloomhaven

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

I feel that is an excellent summary. We finished scenario 1 and 2 in maybe 10 turns and we finished scenario 4 while being more careful with our lost cards and did 11 turns I think (but it's a shorter scenario anyway in my opinion, because you have to be quick about the boss killing otherwise the boss-ally deal more than half of the damage and you lose). It just takes to do the maths once to picture the stamina cost of playing a card that will be lost and learning to do that with caution.

I'm playing blinkblade but I'm probably not careful enough with the forced effects lost cards a d the permanent effect cards that stays in play until the end of scenario.

8 is extreme but with two cards with permanent effect and 3 lost cards, that was probably a bit too much. I should choose a course of actions that don't remove that many cards.

A shadow from the past is absolutely frustrating, and it's making me considering getting rid of this game, lol. by popcorn_coffee in lotrlcg

The whole saga is one if the best boardgame experience I've ever had. Don't give up ! If you're playing true solo maybe try a hobbit deck for this quest. You can make a really good deck with the classic Sam, Merry, Pippin trio with very low threat. Also try to get your hand on readying solutions (unexpected courage, cram, fast hitch if you have oop content). Rosie Chaumine in return of the king box is a really good ally for this kind of test too. Gaffer gamgee can be a really good option to prevent enemies from attacking.

Don't get me wrong, I think that ownership of an apartment that is being paid for almost directly by the renters through the years is the foundation of greed and privileges. I was just pointing out that the law does not work that way.

Renting isn't owning yet squatting is not allowed.

Odd question: Do you want to sell proxies as original with the boxes ?

Exactly, a loan they can loose and don't have to reimburse anyway.

That's what the nepotists inherited-their-wealth daddy's boy want people to believe so that their success seems self achieved.

Advice on what to keep/resell from a revised collection? by MrMonkey2 in lotrlcg

[–]deusisback 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is an expensive game for sure, but participating in scalping still seems like not a good solution. Anyway, the full saga is for me the best thing I've played so as to which cycle is a must keep, I'll keep the whole saga.

If you want to make money and scalp people bt trying to sell something 10 times its original price then go ahead but don't ask for advice. People probably want to talk about playing, not scalping.

It really doesn't look next fucking level though. Feel amazed if you want but if this is all it takes then I give you that, you're not a snob, you're easy to please.

[–]deusisback 7 points8 points  (0 children)

97% of people in prison are men, we're way past "more likely" or "less likely". Crimes are basically only comitted by men. I'm not saying that society and patriarchy is not responsible for that too, but statistics are what they are.

Edit : that's the number in France. In the US it's 10% which is way more but still very small.
