I am not performing brainwashing, I am championing the forces of win and awesome.

Couldn't get the items from Andy to get started, sorry. We'll start as soon as possible, whenever I catch him and we can run through the setup.

I will try to do it tonight. Was not having a particularly good day yesterday and the last thing I wanted to do was clean up and redistribute cards. PM me the list of things needed if you could, Yakko, in case I miss you?

Yakumo · « **Reply #53 on:** November 19, 2009, 08:02:16 AM »

Here's your characters' initial loadout. This list includes your fixed items so I could link to them. The game topic will probably be up early afternoonish EDIT: or I might finish faster than I thought, whatever. The order the characters are listed will also be your play order if you care about that yet. >_>

Taishyr - Min Thi Phan: .18 Derringer, Ancient Tome, The King in Yellow, Enchanted Blade, Voice of Ra, Will

Talaysen - Mark Harrigan: Flamethrower, Molotov Cocktail, Cursed Sphere, Lore

The current game is just about ready to end, so anyone that wants to be considered for a spot in the next game feel free to start saying so, and what if anything you want to see in the next one.

Random Consonant · « **Reply #55 on:** December 04, 2009, 01:54:02 AM »

Still willing to play, still kinda want to see Kingsport in action but have no real preference as to what gets used next game.

Sierra · « **Reply #56 on:** December 04, 2009, 01:54:52 AM »

In for whatever.

Taishyr · « **Reply #57 on:** December 04, 2009, 05:07:46 AM »

I can be in, but if it fills up fast I can also step out first.

VySaika · « **Reply #58 on:** December 04, 2009, 05:08:58 AM »

I am game. And Insmouth seems fun enough, so hey.

Magetastic · « **Reply #62 on:** December 04, 2009, 05:46:20 AM »

I'm game. Interested to see what AH proper is like.

Taishyr · « **Reply #63 on:** December 04, 2009, 05:57:34 AM »

I love your sense of sacrifice, Nitori.

Smashy · « **Reply #64 on:** December 04, 2009, 03:37:04 PM »

Like the others, /in

Yakumo · « **Reply #65 on:** December 04, 2009, 05:54:44 PM »

Unless people specifically want something else, I'm probably going to go with just Innsmouth in the hope that this time something other than the Deep Ones Rising track matters from there. We saw all of one Innsmouth encounter in that last game. <_<

Shale · « **Reply #66 on:** December 04, 2009, 05:58:28 PM »

The problem with expansions is that they can be neutralized just by playing the game at a fast clip. Dunwich, Innsmouth, Kingsport...all of them need time to have any effect on the state of play at all.

Yakumo · « **Reply #67 on:** December 04, 2009, 06:16:46 PM »

I dunno, the Deep Ones Rising track certainly wasn't neutralized, it was just ignored in favor of ending the game even faster than it could have. Partly because it was already at 4 and you couldn't stop it because you ignored Innsmouth.

Shale · « **Reply #68 on:** December 04, 2009, 06:26:50 PM »

Well, yeah, but as it turned out it was impossible to stop Ranty from awakening normally before the Deep Ones Rising came into play, even without putting any tokens on the feds track. It would have mattered if the last three mythoses had been different, but they weren't.

Yakumo · « **Reply #69 on:** December 04, 2009, 06:35:43 PM »

It may not have been if you hadn't put two tokens on the doom track yourselves. Also remember I was Hatbotting Mythos cards so there's no guarantee that those three would have even come up.

Sierra · « **Reply #70 on:** December 04, 2009, 06:43:54 PM »

Wow, is that game over already?

Yakumo · « **Reply #71 on:** December 04, 2009, 06:51:34 PM »

We did like two or three turns in one night since everyone was around. <_< Plus it only lasted 8 turns thanks to the King in Yellow. So yes, it's done.

Jo'ou Ranbu · « **Reply #72 on:** December 05, 2009, 03:05:12 AM »

I'll express interest in joining a new game, sure.

Strago · « **Reply #73 on:** December 05, 2009, 01:38:53 PM »

I'd love to play.

Ranmilia · « **Reply #74 on:** December 05, 2009, 08:58:32 PM »

I would like to run an Arkham game sometime with a heavy story emphasis and maybe some changed mechanics. Probably best done after Christmas, though.
