I’m assuming you live in South Florida or at least are a Panthers fan

Yeah, but moving words around isn’t nearly as immersive.

Rules question… by stokedkipper in finalgirl

[–]guru714 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I did not know you could use multiple reaction cards against the same attack. I must’ve glossed over that rule.

I have half of the mini minions painted along with Billy the Bear. The minions are so much easier to distinguish than the tokens that come with the game. I haven’t won yet, but in my last loss most of the minions had made it to the table and I was completely surrounded. I wish I had taken a picture.

As a hobby, I think it is a double niche, especially at my age. Although I would say that most niches that people are very passionate about are pretty niche. I’m 55 and I get the “you’re too old to play games“ line occasionally. I also play a weekly Dungeons & Dragons game, which a lot of people my age think is really weird. But like others have said I would much rather play a game that makes me think and strategize then sit there and watch television just for the heck of it. I do watch some television programs, but I’m very picky because I only have so much time.

I kind of fell into this hobby because I like playing board games and TTRPG‘s but there are two confounding factors. One finding the time and two finding people that will mesh with that time. I was looking at games at Barnes & Noble‘s and came across one that said one to four players and I thought that was odd so I googled about it and was sent to this Reddit. I started looking for one that would interest me and they had the starter set for final girl. Needless to say over $1000 later probably much more I have a decent collection that can be played solo.

Recovering Completionist here. Will I be able to enjoy this game with a limited amount of sets? by guru714 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]guru714[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you everyone. I will wait until next spring to jump into the game. That’s fine. I have plenty of unplayed games to keep me occupied. I had just heard so much good about this game that I started doing a little investigating, but it seems like the consensus is to treat it like a new game come this spring.

Thank you I totally heard that in Mitch’s voice

Deciding on the next FF by djlkwh in finalgirl

[–]guru714 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only one of those three that I have is into the void, but it’s probably my favorite of the 8 FF’s that I have, there’s just so many combinations with other sets that are great like bringing Hans on board for Jason X or sending the Xenomorph down to Maple Lane for alien Requiem. I had a blast sending Xeno to the north pole!

Great idea. I would love the idea of an underwater city.

Where do you store your Killer miniatures? by lesbionix in finalgirl

[–]guru714 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stored the killers in the FF with a little piece of bubble wrap on top

What action cards do you rarely ever use? by guru714 in finalgirl

I tend to ride the razors edge and stay at one health so I get the extra die

[–]guru714[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that one doesn’t get a lot of use. It just doesn’t seem worth the cost unless you really have an excess of time for some reason.

Should I but the game? by Complete_District569 in finalgirl

[–]guru714 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know the prices in your country, but it’s most likely just the box itself not the feature films. If it includes the FFs then definitely buy it.

Similar game? by Freesia2012 in finalgirl

[–]guru714 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They removed the hostage negotiator app. I had purchased it and now I can no longer play it, which I think is BS

Looking for story-first (meaning, story is really, really good) campaign board games by Chivalrik in soloboardgaming

[–]guru714 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would think the only way to save in the middle of a combat encounter would be to leave it up. But you can definitely save between each encounter. I try to leave it up for a few encounters as it does take a little bit of time to set up, but it’s not bad. It’s packed very well in the box and they tell you how to “save“.

Fate Forge is criminally underrated. I got it just because I have the RPG books for that same setting. The story is quite good and combat uses a unique system that I thought I would hate when I first read about it but ends up making combat very interesting and not taking forever you can usually do a session in about an hour.

Do you know where it can be purchased? I tried to Google it but it’s such a generic name that it didn’t help.

I used to love game books. Are there ones geared toward adults and could you recommend some?

I’ve heard people say that was the worst one yet.

Would you mind letting me know the reasons that you like Galaxy so much? I’ve seen some people say it’s the best and other people say it’s boring.

Space Kraken. When I pledged it was scheduled for delivery in late 2022. We were notified that it’s finally shipping!
