  1. I played it briefly when the first set came out.

     

    I couldn't get in any casual games & at tournaments people played the "gonna win" hotness. So, I'd have to play the same thing to not get stomped. So I didn't play long. Now that there is a lot of dice masters out there, the auto win combos have probably been diluted. 

     

    I could be cheap if you don't have a completest thing - like I do.  :ph34r:

  2. I have almost all of the old Super Dungeon Explorer stuff & my box of new stuff from the kickstarter should in be tomorrow. The new version has two ways to play, arcade / co-op or classic / someone plays the monsters, others play the hero.

     

    Let me know if you want to get together and give it a try. 

  3. The cool thing about The Strange is the ability to turn most settings into a recursion. 

     

    My group started with the Outbreak Undead System. It was very easy to convert it to The Strange and then have them jump to a different recursion. 

     

    This book has a bunch of recursion ideas and new foci that I would suspect might translate to Numenera: http://www.rpgnow.com/product/140376/The-Translation-Codex?filters=0_0_45193_0_0

     

    Marcalla, How's your Numenera game going?

  4. You'll have to report back how it goes, what you think.

     

    I thought it looked interesting, I'm interested in seeing how Strange looks. The books look cool enough to pick up just for a good read. 

  5. I am in Portland Metro. Looking to sell this stuff locally. Wiling to travel to the usual hot spots, Guardian, Rainy Day, etc.

     

    Terrain building & basing stuff - $40(includes insulation foam, hand saw, foam cutter, almost full bottle of flock, half bottle of flock, bit of sand (aka unused kitty litter), misc packs of basing materials, felt, paint brushes, spray glue, paint, etc).

    Pump station: $40

  6. [sorry, Thread Necro...]

     

    Mr. Bigglesworth, I see you are selling your Wild West Exodus. Couldn't find anyone interested in playing? 

     

    I was on the website and it looked like there were two players in Portland Metro, you might have been one of them. 

     

    I REALLY shouldn't, but it looks interesting. 

  7. That's not unreasonable for an artist of Todd's caliber. There are buyers that will pay that much for professional work. WM/H often has horrible resale because of the poor condition of the models from players that buy everything to play and have little regard for paint or assembly quality. But I have sold a number of my painted pieces for that much to collectors. 

     

    I agree, Jay. I still own several Trolls painted by Todd back when he was painting for No Quarter regularly, some of those trolls were also featured in No Quarter. Very high quality. I didn't sell those Trolls when I sold my Troll army because I knew I wouldn't get nearly as much as I wanted. So they are now in the display case.

  8. WHOA, you don't play with a MECH? The 3rd level paladin mech is insane, also need to research the gun upgrade for it (forget the final one)! I love getting the Healing mist on that durable tank, also upgrade the gun and wow. My mech by the end could outrun all my guys, do 16 damage in a non crit shot, and heal TWICE area affect the whole team for 6hp a pop.

     

    oh..... I will reconsider the error my ways on the next run through.

  9. I like fighting Exalt because you don't get yelled at for blowing them up! 

     

    I finished my first run through on the easiest level, I've got a good feel for the game now. When I get some time I'll go through again.

     

    In case you haven't come across it: http://xcom.wikia.com/wiki/XCOM_Wiki Some pretty good info in there. 

     

    I tried the Gene Mods simple to help with fighting off Psi-Attacks / upping will power. Also tried out a Mech trooper for a mission or two. It was OK. Hard to swap out the slot for the heavy. I am going to try the remote vehicles next time I run through.
