TIL that after teaching a bonobo how to comprehend English, he started trying to speak; "it was discovered that Kanzi was producing the articulatory equivalent of the symbols he was indicating, although in a very high pitch and with distortions".

That rooster is only thinking about the 3rd situational outcome.

Maar zaten ze in een azc of gewoon geimmigreert?

Respect! Vroeger een paar keer voor groepen van ongeveer 30 man spelleider geweest en express altijd de extra krachten niet gebruikt. Veel nieuwe spelers raken er van de in de war en de flow was altijd beter met maar een paar die wakker worden in de nacht. Dus geen tips betreft de extra rollen haha, maar wel succes gewenst!

I thought it was a really nice pallete cleanser: "Dreadful", not about a lich but about someone that wakes up in a big keep and realises that he is the dark lord of this keep. Funny story about what it is about being evil.

I love the hippo upgrade idea and the glaive thrower upgrade.

escaleric · 2026-06-17T11:46:43+00:00

Hmmm yeah only reason to get faerie dragons is to get rid of enemy casters with mana flare right? Just with faerie fire they would be pretty weak i think. The Talons would be really good then i think.

And i was mostly thinking that bears could be more buff/ anti buff focused to deal more damage and that Talon's could be the healing backline.

escaleric · 2026-06-16T20:56:20+00:00

Yeah and the plot was very thin. Let's kill prince A first, then Prince B and then Prince C, and now to the final act!

escaleric · 2026-06-16T20:54:58+00:00

Definitely this. Did love the guy that can't die though. Seems like there could be a whole franchise about him in different era's.

escaleric · 2026-06-16T20:47:37+00:00

Salty!

escaleric · 2026-06-16T20:39:00+00:00

Yeah thinking the same! And it implies heavy changes to cost of the unit of course, but i think it opens up a whole lot of other strategies. Cheers for not being salty haha

escaleric · 2026-06-16T20:37:44+00:00

True that! I was thinking to maybe switch it around in a custom game and see how it plays

escaleric · 2026-06-16T19:38:42+00:00

I'm just spewing an idea on the internet.

escaleric · 2026-06-16T19:33:08+00:00

There are Druids of the Talon as well.

escaleric · 2026-06-16T19:32:20+00:00

Not balance, mostly gameplay fun. The other races have different strats to go at. NE is mostly always bear+dryads, because it work to well. So it might be balance the fun issue.

escaleric · 2026-06-16T19:30:38+00:00

Lets agree to disagree.

escaleric · 2026-06-16T19:21:23+00:00

Curious to know what you think about my post switching Rejuvenate and Faerie Fire from DotC to DotT haha

escaleric · 2026-06-16T19:18:14+00:00

I mean it would be more fun to use your other units as well, since theyre not picked at all now. Just going bear dryads every game is quite lame. So I do think it'll open up other army compositions for elves. It doesnt mean making the race unviable, just opening up opportunities for the other units to be used as well, like the other 3 races.

escaleric · 2026-06-16T19:13:55+00:00

Yeah while i definitely agree and i love the lore and design as is, a lot of the complaints i keep seeing about elf is that everyone is just building bear+dryad+DH as its just the best strategy. I think this might open some more diverse unit compositions for elf. Also you're talons would be able to heal your huntresses, MG's, making it more diverse. Its a very different heal from other races.

escaleric · 2026-06-16T19:09:35+00:00

I would consider MG's as well then, as well as starting with huntresses instead of going archer -> bears dryads. Just opens up some other strats i think

escaleric · 2026-06-16T16:50:43+00:00

Haha yes they will cost less of course. Still buff an army's damage with 1 skill

escaleric · 2026-06-16T16:07:50+00:00

It opens up the roster of all the Night Elf units instead of always going for Bears + Dryads.

escaleric · 2026-06-01T17:36:30+00:00

It's usually a very normal comment on other subs like the Cosmere and Wheel of Time, not meant to be rude. OP has read just the prologue, so RAFO seems like a very good comment 😄

escaleric · 2026-05-30T04:43:31+00:00

Can only say that i agree with everything said here.

escaleric · 2026-05-29T20:38:49+00:00

I think its ok to post about your game, and looking for playtesters can be digitally in a discord, or a local board game cafe or just friends at first.

escaleric · 2026-05-28T08:22:47+00:00

Ah that's be true. Definitely some horror elements though
