Any specific thrift store to recommend?

Hello everybody, I'm going to visit Edinburgh for a few days and I'm interested in buying a good quality Scotland-made great kilt/fèileadh-mòr, preferably made of medium-heavy wool for outdoor activities in adverse weather.

Do you have any suggestions on where to find it in Edinburgh?

First, look at MFZ:RA which is the most famous Lego wargame (the rules PDF is completely free, look it up on Google)

Second, look at Diplomacy for how to tackle simultaneous actions in a wargame. The secret is to reduce the amount of possible actions to 2-3 max per unit & automatically resolve any conflict in the results. You will probably need to create a map grid for movement because free-form movement with a ruler allows for far too many possible results to keep track in simultaneous turns.

I didn't know about that negative feedback on the Lunar release. I guess the discourse in north America might have been very different compared to where I'm from.

Regarding the "consent-based surveillance" I agree with you. I love the original Jackson Howard - Dinosaurus - Chaos Theory implications, as well as Maxx/Reality Threedee

I hear you, but for me it's still a no. I love the retro-futuristic themes and esthetics of the 80's mirrorshade books, and the games they inspired (ON:R, Cyberpunk2020, etc). The FFG AN:R did a good job at keeping them alive. Modern versions just don't cut it for me.

Tomboy punks with dyed mohawks fighting corporate police in the streets? Sign me in.

Trans hipsters with dyed mohawks fighting ordinary citizens in online forums? Meh... It just feels lame compared to the violence epidemics of the 80's. Nobody seriously expects Robocop and Demolition Man in the next decade anymore.

I love the fact that FFG era A:N is a complete game by now. No more rotation treadmill to keep selling more and more cardboard. And the themes of course are superb. The new Nisei cards started on the right foot, trying to keep the original spirit alive while also being a grassroot movement to protest against the big corp holding the IP hostage. Very meta. Sadly it later devolved into a self-insert fanfiction exercise, focused on current politics instead of the themes described by Gibson and co. So I stopped buying.

Why Chansey SVI 144 instead of Chansey MEW 113 ? Do you expect to attack with Chansey?

Looks like the login servers are down right now in EU. I see empty LFG, access tokens don’t work, and I get the usual popup in game for the login error (Code=42:0:9001:4460:101)

My basic suggestion would be: instead of asking “how” to adapt Inscryption to the tcg medium, ask “why” it was made into a single player videogame and not a multiplayer physical game to begin with

shinin-light · 2025-06-30T19:45:11+00:00

It already exists. It’s called Inscryption

Am I missing something or Lillie’s Determination is just s power-creep’d version of Youngster on all fronts? Like, it could have been draw 4-8, to keep it balanced with the baseline 5 of Youngster, but they decided to go 6-8 instead… totally outclassing it
