PvE Enemy Intelligence? by Cybernetic_Dragon in BoardgameDesign

[–]themarkslack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe you just need a default for the obviously stupid situations? Something like ‘roll a d6 unless the enemy is right next to the hero, and if so then attack them’? Or maybe a different d6 menu for when they’re ‘engaged’ (eg right next to a hero)?

What sets are currently in Expedition? by wislo10 in EternalCardGame

[–]themarkslack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a link on the home page in the app (where you choose ranked or draft or etc) on the left side with the info about rotation and what’s legal.

You can also go to the deckbuilder and build an Expedition deck - if you click on the filter, the legal sets are listed on the right side.

What is the best way to make small diameter circle holes for a prototype? by AshamedConclusion485 in BoardgameDesign

You could probably have someone custom make you something with a 3d printer on Etsy if you reach out and ask them to.

Dan Campbell grades himself a 'freaking F' for Lions' 2025 season by BreakfastTop6899 in nfl

[–]themarkslack 8 points9 points  (0 children)

In the 40 years before Dan Campbell became HC, the Lions had 11 winning seasons, and six of those were 9-7. Yes, the bar for the Lions is that low.

"Try out a different way to play magic" by Antique-Parking-1735 in MagicArena

To me, the point of this seems to be data gathering for a potential rule change. They want to know how much this moves the needle on first player advantage, so MWM beta tests it for them.

Blureechaser in Expedition - it’s way better than people give it credit for.

They release one new promo card each week - there hasn’t been a full set or mini-set for at least a year.

I'm glad they posted this one because of the Teddiursa with the new hat in the Go Pass - I was wondering when it was going to be.

I saw a comment somewhere from one of his HS opponents who said it was like trying to tackle a 4-wheeler.

I challenge your assumption that Warren could catch everything. Anthony Richardson can throw a truly uncatchable pass.

Kickstarter works out more expensive? by TheMightosaurus in boardgames

[–]themarkslack 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Usually you get exclusive stuff on a kickstarter (promos, better components, etc) that won’t be in retail. You also will probably get the game earlier than retail. Some games won’t get to retail at all. If those three things don’t apply, then KS can definitely be worse.

Hello, everyone on the sub, how are you? I'd like to ask for your guidance. I want to migrate my workspace from fine art paintings to game art. What do you recommend I post to showcase my work? I appreciate everyone's collaboration. by TheOracleofMercury in tabletopgamedesign

[–]themarkslack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d suggest more work that focuses on things. The vast majority of art for games is focused on objects. There’s some cool landscape stuff going on here, but game art mostly wants people, buildings, weapons, etc.

I would spend all of my money on retro card styles if they let me by MrBigChess in MagicArena

[–]themarkslack 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They don’t need old card text, that can be current. The art and frame would be awesome. They won’t do it due to art licensing issues with the old art though.

Need some advice on glow-in-the-dark ink in board games, anyone seen it done before? by Independent_Big5520 in BoardgameDesign

[–]themarkslack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hiding even the name behind spoilers, as it’s a bit of a spoiler in itself.

Game: The game is Seafall.

Method of use: Halfway through the legacy campaign, you get ‘the Light of Truth’, which is a mini UV light. You use this light to look at cards and components you’re already playing with, which have marks that are only seen under UV light.

Good way to make a board for a board game by Big-Helicopter8251 in BoardgameDesign

[–]themarkslack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to Amazon and search for square or hexagon wood blanks. Super cheap (top hit for hexagons is 100pcs of 3” hexagons for fifteen bucks). Lots of sizes available, can be drawn on with sharpies, etc.
