Revision as of 23:30, 22 April 2008
This page is for discussion of stuff related to the game coming up this week, no matter when that actually is. For instance, we can all assume Nate isnt coming for some lame reason and that Ed is sick of pizza and is bringing teriyaki or some other crap. They can post something here if that happens to be untrue.

Gabe: Present~! But no pizza for me. Also I'm glad to say that I will be much better prepared this time. A lot of work has (should) be done before an assult on the fortress is undertaken. Also where do the characters go first, Tellos Industries or the wharehouse? Sorry about being ill prepared last week, hope to make up for it this time. (With only one pre-planned combat this time!)
Ranting and raving or other random comments
Other RPG or Non-RPG gaming Events
Ed: Ben, cheryl claims that you have taken the mantle of uber board gamer as you won puerto rico and carcassone (and since cosmic doesn't count towards the mantle, so she says). i think it's a clever ruse.
BEN: everyone knows that board gaming champion status is determined only by Settlers of Catan: everything else is fanciful frivolity. Since my record there is like 0-50, I can't possibly be the uber board gamer. As you say, she's just taken her psych out tactics to the pre-pre-pre-game.
JASON: Give me a break. Catan is a puss game, especially compared to the likes of Puerto Rico. If you win that and Carcassone, I say you are the uber board gamer. Lets not also forget that you won Caylus too last time.
--Edmiao 08:03, 21 April 2008 (MST)verily, thine prowess in this matter can no longer be protested, as the triumverant has been attained.
Weekly Magic Whining/Complaining/Smack Talking
--Matts 10:12, 21 April 2008 (MST)In what is hopefully the only time I ever buy magic card singles, I have made an attempt to fill out the Sky Swallower deck. It still sucks, but dammit, I'll win a few games with it, and WHAT THEN? WHAT THEN? WHAT!
BEN: I'm quite close to buying a box of shadowmoor, but I'm gonna have to think on it a bit longer...will probably depend on my mood in the next two weeks. I looked through the new cards again and overall I like them quite a bit.
GABE: Man, you really like that Sky Swallower... I think we need to get rid of that card as you have an unhealthy addiction to it. I think I'm pretty good on magic cards for awhile kekeke.
Ed: so what did you get? 3 more SkyS, and 4 of the exploding artifacts? we have a lot of lands that are: comes into play tapped; T: blue mana; T sacrifice: 2 blue mana, which would work well.
--Matts 15:46, 21 April 2008 (MST)Honestly those would work great in architecting a potential turn-3 sky swallower, which I have to say would be freaking awesome. That's revision number 1. The other thing that I need to put in there is Spawnbroker, which I think we have 1 of.
I also bought 3 morningtide boosters and some more spiketail hatchlings.
The Next Step in WHFRP Reboot
The Next Step in Werewolf
PLANS: So just what are some steps people are thinking of taking? If you could give me a rough idea it'd be most helpful.
Ed: I see we have two options if we choose to attack. hit the corporate office or hit the hellbeast guarded factory. When we parted, Wakhan was favoring russling up the troops, feinting attack on corporate and then making a real attack on the factory. First, attacking the factory in the real world with a truck borne fertilizer bomb, this to draw the baddies into the real world. then once they shift, hit the factory in the netherworld with the main force. thoughts?

I want to use my contacts in the bum community to find someone who knows the area and might have any tips in exchange for whatever, ie roughing up people who are giving him a hard time, cooking him an honest meal, etc.
As far as overall strategy, I think that the truck-bomb is a good idea, but especially that the two-pronged umbral assault is a good idea. I'm gonna ask any bums in the area about what sorts of trucks go through there, what their general look is, and where they're coming from.

Diverting forces to other targets may be worthwhile, but I'm not convinced that there really are extra resources allocated to this base or that our enemy really considers us a threat.
