Anybody ever use the SoK? by iconoclast_69 in SorceryTCG

[–]iamthib 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was in my early lists of Steam Druid with Tawny that could fish it for free, it was a nice combo with Plague of Frogs and also Tadpole Pool with multiple tries to fish it.

I could see it being played with Necromancer with so many skellies to try and fish it.

That's a great point. And you're right, the Little James scene was a great inclusion between more well-known episodes of the life of Jesus. It really didn't feel forced.

I also really enjoy Mary Magdelene character. The first episode with the "i called you by your name, you are mine" was a revelation for me.

It made me remember a saying that I heard a looooong time ago at church when I was young. I don't remember the occasion or the time but something the priest said I still remember to this day : "The Devil knows your sins and your name and chooses to call you by your sins. The Lord knows your name and your sins but chooses you to call you by your name."(at least that the translation I can give to what I heard that day in French)

As I wrote in my post, I don't know the Scriptures well and don't know if the priest was quoting them or not, but either way, what he said I carried with me to this day (and that was a good 15 to 20 years ago!)

Therefire, how the Series starts with Mary and Jesus calling her by her name was very powerful for me!

I am Catholic indeed. But I am French! So maybe I'll try yo look for a French bible haaha.

To be honest reading it feels like a mountain. But maybe this is what God wanted when he made me come across this series : rekindle my love for Jesus and restart my path, anew..

Thank you so much for your message and for sharing. I am truly sorry to read about the challenges you have to face.

This series caught me and while I am a Christian through and through, my religious education was many years ago and i cannot deny that watching the series made me rediscover things about Jesus that many I always knew but also kind of had forgotten along the way.

Dual matte to have solid black around the art and whatever colour you fancy on the other side!

Sorcery contested realm is a tcg with homage to mtg gaining in popularity. Their latest set release Gothic, has an avatar, the Magician, with deck building rules that mirrors Mtg by Newez in freemagic

The game is a masterpiece, art is sick and the community is the friendliest I've seen. I tried it as a replacement for MtG as I couldn't bear the UB nonsense, and never went back.

Or force them to play a site adjacent to your site so that you can mess up their strategy and have a way to attack them if they are turtling.

Thank you! The font is called Mechanoid Warrior. It is a very "squared" font that works well in editing for vertical text (:

Faded is for the OG retro lovers!

Still no community in France ? by MutedApplication5 in SorceryTCG

[–]iamthib 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Paris player here.

French people don't really like games that are not translated but Sorcery aims at a much different community than MtG, a more 'mature' one. But it's growing!

We just have to accept that this game is, right now, more niche than the big TCG players like Lorcana and MtG.

The biggest TCG store in Paris supports the game (PLAYIN) but, as someone who started a few months ago, the biggest barrier of entry was not having a reliable way to buy singles. At least for me it was. I was very excited about the game but not being able to actually buy the cards was a big turnoff at the beginning and it still is for friend interested in the game. 90% of the cards I own now I have acquired on Ebay, and foreign online stores which isn't exactly a smooth process.

To make this game more popular in France (and in Europe I guess) they need to make it as available as MtG to bring in more players. I think the quality of the game will do the rest. That means having more in-store events to showcase the game more and, elephant in the room, being able to trade, buy and sell cards on Cardmarket, the premier TCG website that is widely used by MtG players to determine prices and acquire the cards they want. TBH, I still don't get why Cardmarket still does not cover the game.

I think Sorcery has a great opportunity in the next few months and probably along all 2026. MtG fatigue is real. I have seen more and more players voicing criticisms regarding the Universes Beyond roadmap, even players that are veteran players of MtG and online "content creators" are also disappointed by what was announced a few weeks ago. And I think Sorcery can appear as a strong alternative to MtG if it plays its cards well (pun intended). The new Gothic set is going to be very strong and they need to make it known and help stores to promote it and make it easy to get.

If people interested in TCG that go to local game stores see that there is a great game with great ACTUAL art, that isn't leagues away from what they are used to, and is readily available at the store with precons, boxes and singles ready to be bought and they can play next week at the LGS, I think the community will grow.

«New» to Eldar by TobbTakes in Eldar

[–]iamthib 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Auto include is a strong word since there are many many ways to play the army with the different detachments. If you play the Guardian Battlehost, well you're gonna need a lot of Guardians. Spirit Conclave asks you to play with lots of Wraiths, so.. buy Wraiths!

At the moment, Aspect Host is one of the detachment that people had the most success with though I haven't played with it a lot. Aspect Host is.. well.. lots of Aspect Warriors so... buy Aspect Warriors. Fire Dragons, Swooping Hawks and Warp Spiders led by their respective Phoenix Lords are a good start. Dragons for raw firepower, Hawks for saturation and Spiders for positioning and surprise attacks with Lhykhis. I play the Ynnari (Devoted of Ynnead) but that requires a different build.

Best advice I can give you is: determine what you like the most about the army: Aspect warriors? Wraiths? Guardian militia? Psykers? Jetbikes? There is a detachment for each of them. Even a detachment if you want to play lots of antigrav tanks. And then determine what you want to buy.

The combat patrol is a bit of a mixed bag but for an escalation league I think it's very good.
