I think it did have an early access period at some point. I also seemed to have the backer DLC, which gives a little boost to resources and a weapon for the early game.

I’ve been informed by a relative that had partaken in eating one, that the meat of a porcupine is mostly flavorless on its own.

I’ve been playing through Black Skylanda lately.

I originally put it down because the top-down perspective was a bit jarring, but have been having fun taking down sky pirates both on land and in the air since I’ve picked it back up.

So far the upgrade paths and the currency gain for those upgrades have been mostly on par with each other, so I haven’t felt the need to grind mats for anything. I can rescue a stranded pilot or two, liberate an island, and carve out a new parking location for my big ship all in one sitting, which makes it feel as though just about anything I do is progressing something.

Looking forward to more!

Dual-casting 2nd tier lightning could stun-lock Alduin!

Once set has plenty of replayability. I did pick up a couple of character packs to try out the roster.

Compared to Warhammer, at least, I feel I’m getting much more of my money’s worth, and everyone’s a bit less salty if we happen to get out collective teeth kicked in.

If you’re in the States, you can order from the devs to hopefully save some cash, but I have a FLGS to hit up, myself.

I’m mainly looking at adding the Frontier Town, which adds a ton of stuff to the non-dungeon-crawling past of the game, and the werewolves expansion because, well, werewolves. But other than that the base game has everything for more than a couple of games of fun!

There is a little bit of prep for the minis, but they provide tokens to use in the meantime if you’d like to play beforehand. What we did is just have everyone be responsible for their character, but it isn’t strictly necessary.

I’ve also 3d printed card & token holders to speed up setup.

I haven’t played Gloomhaven, unfortunately, but I’ll have to give it a try at some point.

That being said, I’m loving the theming of SoB a bunch! I can’t wait to learn enough to start making homebrew stuff.

Got in a Shadows of Brimstone session. It’s an alternate wild west/horror dungeon crawler with a bunch of campaign potential.

Having a lot of fun with it and hope I can get some of the expansions worked in soon.

I really like the art style in Unearth. The cards are each different ruins to excavate.

This is why they want to label antifa a “Terrorist Organization” despite the fact that anyone not rooting for the Fascist boot on their face would qualify as a ‘member’.

Besides, sequestered migrants will make better slaves stateside when all of our yearly produce starts to rot on the vine…

Hey, that Tardigrade is doing his best, okay!

So I guess all of those unsupervised PPP loans that were forgiven were a nice feather in the Democratic hat, then, huh?

That’s fair.

To that end, they’d have to start banning all the 24-hr talking heads from being able to call themselves news channels and regulate the term.

As it stands there’s no way to flip the counties that that’ll just listen to that drivel all day telling them to vote against their own interests.

It means that votes are diluted such that it’s nearly impossible for the state to turn despite the fact that most of its voters have.

And while, yes that isn’t mutually exclusive to Texas, we weren’t talking about them were we?

It’s just a way to ensure that a sizeable population isn’t adequately represented.

Population density:

Political Leaning

Districting:

Or, maybe it’s because they’re gerrymander’d to shit?

Tyranny by majority…

Before YouTube’s switch to “your going to watch 6 ads before the video starts, and you are going to like it,” schtick, I always enjoyed getting to skip the ad before they managed to tell me what the product even was.

It doesn’t need to be an animated visual to be distracting or NSFW…

That’s a lot of faith that the ads would be SFW, let alone not distracting.

Not only that, but then they go and blow half of their budget on adverts instead of R&D.
