Re: Scrolls...ok, wtf is going on?

I basically have the two tick bombs in my deck to to counter waking stones. They see some use other than that, but are generally sacced.

Re: Scrolls...ok, wtf is going on?

http://scrollsprices.com/ is pretty good. The nature of any such website is to be somewhat inaccurate, but it is fine for getting in the ballpark. My feel is currently that prices are currently somewhat inflated do to the general lack of cards, as in general the price of most cards seems to have dr...

Re: Scrolls...ok, wtf is going on?

Playing like that got me into platinum league in starcraft! I say that maintaining concentration is a skill and if you are better at it than others, then use it against them! As I understand it, defense is more efficient than attack in scrolls but there is likely a hard counter to a deck like yours...

Thank you! I cannot find this recipe anywhere! thanks for the help That would be because it was added in the most recent release (4.82). The wiki is a useful resource, but is fan-updated, so often lags behind a release or two. In the future, if you ever have a question, the best place to look is ge...

Re: New Release! (BTW V4.81)

So the mysterious feature materializes! As usual none of the guesses were correct, but though I have not yet had a chance to try it (I will as soon as this is posted) this promises to make mobs even a bit more scary, and far scarier in the case of death at night, after which, obviously, one has no w...

Re: Anyone care if I rip out 3D anaglyph mode?

No problems: I heard about it and was like "Hey, that could be fun . . ." and never did anything with it. Any possible optimizations are much appreciated, so by all means, break out the battleaxe.

Re: A bug upon installation

You don't have a huge amount of information on your setup, and it may seem like a dumb question, but you aren't running 1.5 are you? BtW is only compatible with 1.4.7. Other than that, not much I can do, but I will say that we can be pretty sure this is on your end somehow, and not a bug, or more pe...

Re: Flower's Dev Diary (Week of Jan 28th)

I have a Nether mob trap planned at some point, but not currently actually built, so I don't exactly have personal experience, but anything that reduces meta-gaming seems fine to me. As you have said, Mojang clearly doesn't take mob traps into account when designing, so changes to fix aspects relate...

Still difficult, but I look forward to finding out what I can do with this beacon a bit sooner than SFS. I really don't have many ideas left, but I'm sure it will...

The suggestion is to remove it, I would say, since free access to a compass makes HC Spawn much less difficult.

I suppose that is the point of endgame content, but I'm sure I'll be working on these beacons for a very long time. The alternate method of finding myceilum will be highly appreciated too, and I'm looking f...

Double-posting because significant information was added significantly later. So I've skimmed the 4th edition handbook, and I think that we should be able to play a mix of the two editions. This method will may well cause some confusion, but I think we can work through that. I have decided that I wi...

Re: Ars Magica: PbP Interest Thread

As far as fourth ed goes, I read a review that seemed well worded. "The most powerful fighter on the medieval battlefield was a naked man with a stick." Indeed, I read that too, and that constituted part of the reason I wanted to use 5th edition. 4th-5th edition doesn't seem to be a huge ...

Yes, a fairly obvious choice, I just wasn't quite sure how far you were into the book. I was thinking, you may want to make two companions, since your magus won't be in as many adventures, being somewhat reclusive. Is that allowed? I worry that the enchanted items + 2 non-grogs in combat might skew...

We have about the right number of players now, we just need to decide who would be a storyteller. If people have opinions on how to do this, I'd be glad to hear them. We are all basically unfamiliar with the system, and being a GM under those conditions will probably be rather difficult, but I do re...
