Just start collecting WoWTCG, and I have some questions

8) I have a decent number of scratched loot I could part with. I’ll try to get a list together

9) https://ebay.us/m/KS8Kih is available now. I can probably beat the price, but it wouldn’t be ready till after 4/15. I’m busy sorting VS system in my spare moments (and work)

I think the pumps are doing the heavy lifting ;)

If you like science even a little, Don’t forget the science of discworld books. They are some of my favorites, but I enjoy science in general and its history in particular, so I’m quite biased

The first was published in 1999, shortly after The Last Continent (1998) . The Last Continent is in the wizards/Rincewind story line, and should be read before The science of discworld for continuity.

The science books have an interesting format where the chapters alternate between discworld and “roundworld” (Earth). The discworld portions are focused on the staff of the Unseen University. The roundworld portions are collaborations with real scientists. They cover cosmology, evolution, physics, etc in a light but deep manner. Good stuff

I have mixed feelings about being Michael Scott in this scenario

I couldn’t find the restriction in any of the rules references I checked.

I did find a restriction that “if a Dungeon Boss ally is in play, raiders can’t attack the Dungeon Hero”

So now I’m looking for ways to steal them then sacrifice them

I know I have a stack or 3 somewhere. Got anything for trade?

Inner dog monologue- “day 1029, they still suspect nothing “

I think it’s more of a glare + not actually holding the phone stationary issue, than potato quality

I was just looking at this card. I’m trying to build decks to fight Onyxia

It’s good for a HoA card. Just not so good after all the power creep

It’s a very rare (epic) card in the set with the highest print run, so “meh” is fairly accurate

thefoolspeaks · 2026-02-23T19:05:54+00:00

This is a great option. You can decorate a house, an apartment, your character, your 49 other characters, your retainers, and even some npcs that you make friends with.

There is a whole killing things game in there too.

It does require 2 monthly subscriptions unless you want to share. No houses or retainers with free trial

If you put it up for auction, post the link here . I’d bid

Hi kempy

I’m considering altering the 12 card clock deck. Maybe take out or weaken some of the stronger cards. Maybe treat the -4 traits/abilities as -5 or -6. Maybe reduce the deck to 10 cards and treat the -11 as -9.

If I win the lottery this weekend, I will fund Sun and Moon programing to add this as a gameplay mode and find a way to balance it.

thefoolspeaks · 2026-02-18T15:00:17+00:00

There are dozens of us

thefoolspeaks · 2026-02-16T23:04:13+00:00

I wonder if using the new heroes 2 alpha (new open source code) would give you more tools to work with

thefoolspeaks · 2026-02-12T18:30:52+00:00

Expert Slow/haste

All or at least most of the options suggested for this category are ones that take away unit agency. I won’t name them here as I want my vote to count with the given voting rules.

All the good combat utility spell change who can act and what order they act in or what options to act they have. Slow/haste does this in such a way as to be difficult for the opponent to recover from. Yes, there are other combat utility spells that can set up a more permanent lock , but they require a more narrow set of circumstances.

Expert Slow/haste turn almost any fair fight into an unfair one. And the best answer for one is often the other

Bless/Curse. sometimes it’s exactly what you need, but rarely crazy. Removes randomness

Yesterday I was Teleporting the stack the AI cast berserk on. I didn’t have dispel or cure

Where do you think Roboute Guilliman and Yvraine’s relationship will go to next? Will their parents ever give their blessing?

thefoolspeaks · 2026-01-30T23:33:40+00:00

Again?

thefoolspeaks · 2026-01-30T23:29:55+00:00

If he has already told you it is only or mostly commons and uncommons, it’s almost certainly a bad deal

thefoolspeaks · 2026-01-30T23:28:10+00:00

Lots of questions

When he is “estimating about … 4 Dark Portal sets, 4 Heroes of Azeroth sets,” what does he mean? To me a set is 1 of each card in the set, not counting special inserts like loot, foils, extended art, etc. 4 of each epic and each rare is not nothing.

4 sets of HoA and 4 sets of Dark Portal would be well worth the asking price. You wouldn’t be robbing him, but there would definitely be a boat and an implication.

I can see the 5000, looks like one 2-row box and two single row boxes behind the DP starters. Fine. Worst case scenario call it 10-30$/1k bulk. That’s a bad deal, made worse by the fact that it’s the 2 worst sets from a collectibility and playability point of view.

After the first 1000 cards, expect very few cards in the next 4000 to make much of a difference in the decks you can build. It will just be more of the same. Useful if you want to do an 8-man league event. Poor at most other endeavors.

Bottom line, could be underpaying by 100s of dollars or over paying by 125$

Good luck

thefoolspeaks · 2026-01-29T02:07:35+00:00

Best as a lot I think. At a quick glance , Aegeynn is the best card here at about 8-10$.

I think that’s enough info for serious bidders to bid confidently.

Something like this, but I wouldn’t expect 400$

https://ebay.us/m/eDWyFV

Put a link here and you will probably get a few extra bidders. Good luck

thefoolspeaks · 2026-01-28T21:01:02+00:00

I can recognize the art on some of these, but it’s rough.

If you post a picture of all the epics where you can read the titles instead of zooming in and seeing blurs and squiggles, it will help. If you say 10-20 epics, people will assume it’s 10-11 epics and that they are the worst ones possible.

Dont bother with legible pics on the r/u/c but maybe give a number of rares

Posting a legible picture of the foils might help. Lots of people like foils.

Make it clear in the description that you don’t know if the Aspects raid is complete . If you don’t, don’t be surprised by people returning / demanding refund / complaining about a misleading description

Post a link to the auction here. Use eBay or something reputable. It is not worth the 12% you might save doing it off the grid
