C.F. Vanderwal is a former House Erid noble now serving with your intelligence division as part of his parole. After uncovering a number of conspirators in the capital working against you he's been transferred to Rioja, both so you can keep an eye on him and to make use of his experience.

Chide Dlam'ard, the Governor of Rioja is busy with the resumed expansion of the planet's industrial sectors.
With the arrival of smaller arcologies around the planet's capital the city should now be able to support of population of just over 9 million. Construction efforts in the other main cities and in the southern wastes are going well.
Companies rebuilding and restoring infrastructure of the old destroyed cities also seem to be making good progress. As much at 26% of the previous buildings are being torn down completely due to damage to recycle their materials.

Your recent visit to Magdalena revealed that there are plenty of areas of their cities still partially abandoned as a result of Warlord raids decades ago. While a bit run down in places and possibly a nest of criminal activity some restoration work would allow the planet to take on many more refugees.

Did you want to invest some of your own money into the project in return for a share of future income? If so how much?

Sonia currently has around 200 million S available.

Hype for House and Dominion!

Did you want to invest some of your own money into the project in return for a share of future income? If so how much?

I am going to say no on this. Our finances are icky enough as it is right now and and I'd rather our focus would be on Rioja and "finishing" that project first.

“I don't recognise any of this,” Koa complains as he peers down at the little piece of stone you recovered from Baphomet's tomb, “Are they even characters? How do we know they aren't, I don't know, really terrible drawings?”

“No, I think I recognise some of these,” Howa argues, “They're old, very old, but they're definitely part of a specific language set.”

“Okay, sure,” Koa pauses, “But how do you know that? I'm sure that one there is just a drawing of a sheep.”

Joking aside, you say to prevent an argument, how certain is she that this is something usable? If it's written in some code or cipher, it'll make the translation even more difficult. What can she tell you about it, here and now?

“Just from looking at it?” Howa frowns a little, delicately taking the sliver of stone and gazing at it, “There's not much written – well, carved really, but you know what I mean - here. If I had to guess, I'd say that this was a set of command words rather than full instructions. In other words, what's here might not have any real meaning, but reading the words should do... something. Perhaps break Murmur's shackles, perhaps trigger some ancient trap that'll kill us all.”

“That's, uh, that's not likely though,” Koa asks, taking a careful step backwards, as if the flint could explode at any minute, “Is it?”

“It's a possibility,” Howa shrugs, feigning indifference, “I wouldn't put something like this past a sorcerer – they were, by all accounts, bastards one and all. Save for a few... exceptions...” She adds that last part with a kind of reluctance, forcing herself to say words that she doesn't believe in. “All I'm saying,” she stresses, glad to move on, “Is that even translating this might be a risk. A risk I'm willing to take, but still a risk.”

>No, it's not necessary. I have the sigil
>I won't leave the job half done. We'll take the risk together

What about not saying "you too" when the waiter tells you to enjoy your meal?

Let's keep the spoiler begging to a minimum shall we?

How do you guys feel about the new Jack Marshal rules? Any combo's you're itching to try?

You will never see Skorne players stop whining While making love to a hell jack named Sidney

Oh hey, this is great. I kinda wanted to make a space thread myself.
I LOVE this album. Great space music. Half the songs give me chills, like the second one Dawson's Christian. Space ghost ship.

*Thumbs up as he continues to ponder the mystery that is Major Tom*

Evil Coin: Whispers into the mind of its owner and will cause them to make poor financial choices if they can't resist it. Very good at hiding its nature.

Boots of Running: Equipping these makes your nose runny.

Avarice Blade: Any blood split by this dagger turns to gold as it dries

Cape of Dramatic Billowing: Always billows dramatically at appropriate moments. Does nothing else.

Magic chessmen. The chessman which can make the best move is warm to the touch.

Sure! Druid is fine right?

I proceed to make a middle ages version of Big Boss, I found my own kingdom, by soldiers, for soldiers. Fuck your intrigue.

played 3 matches for now, going with yan lo and his ancestors buddies

Last match I had the problem where, even if I kept getting chi for yan, I couldn't spend it for my upgrades since I had to keep healing toshiro because he was getting pounded hard by gremlins (even with hard to wound +2 and armor +2 thanks to yan lo's buff).
so, in retrospective, I need a healer. what should I go for?
otherwhise i could just keep toshiro in the back and get izhamu and some minions to take the hits...

>>47281539

Izamu should be tanking most of your hits ideally, though in practice that won't always happen. You have a few options to keep him chugging though.

Chiao and Nurses can keep him topped up, and even if he's paralyzed he's still use full due to his aura.

To protect him from ranged you can use Sebastian to give cover or the Carrion Emissary to throw up blocking terrain.

I'm also not sure how integral to the Yan Low package the Soul Porter is, but you could also swap him with a Graveyard Spirit to give him more armor.

Anyone know of good 3 player scenarios?

>>47245585
So I played Cosmic Encounter with one of the designers on TTS tonight. He said that they're designing a CE standalone game for 2 players.

How does /bgg/ feel about that? I think it sounds neat

>>47245585
>what have you played since last general?
Age of Empires III today. Fucking fantastic worker placement. I played orange/Holland and went full makemoney and getgoods. I only went to civilize in order to get trade goods and nobody really targeted the merchant ships nor warfare, and I ended up winning by a landslide with 110VP. In the final round I was robbed the capital building that would've given me 1VP per $5 at the end, which would've added 25VP had I gotten it.

>what's your favorite fan variant?
Survive: Escape from Atlantis where one player has no explorers but controls the sea creatures.

How do you do a chaotic multiplayer game of ganging up on one another with only two players?

First for wrong picture

>>47347176
Not even the wrong picture, it's a bait picture. Everyone here hates that SJW show.

That's why it's perfect.

Irene places a handful of GPS beacons on the couch, and the rest of us take one just in case things go south and we find ourselves separated from the others. AFter that's all taken care of, we take a few minutes to work out where everyone will be-

Theresa will hold onto the real Loki in her free hand while I make a decoy that'll take his place on his perch on Shary's head.

Irene will be off to the side, holding Theresa's hand until the bait is taken.

Gabrielle is going to just sit on the other couch, well out of the line of fire since none of us wants her to get directly involved in this. And since I'm not supposed to be in an active combat role here, I'm going to be sitting with her.

And I guess Charlotte's just going to be pacing around since there's no way she's able to sit still at a time like this.

Oh would you just look at the time!

>>47344064
I'd argue that Dark Sun was stupider. Sun Crusher had an interesting concept, Dark Sun was just "what would happen if we took three of the Death Star's giant dick lasers and strapped them together?"

>>47344064

I don't have that big of a problem with weird one-off technology.

In fact, the edgy pilot of the Sun Crusher was worse than the damn thing he piloted, in my opinion.

>>47343151
I'm working on a paladin warlock that worships the concept of justice and would unwittingly be allowing himself to be steered by a GOO that appears to him as a sun.

Where can I find some premade character sheets?

>>47343151
Death Cleric who spies for the church, with a focus on buffs/debuffs. Can sneak around to follow the party wherever (or discreetly give magical assistance) and might throw in some silly undead shenanigans for kicks.
