Got my package! The button tried to escape but failed.   Look's like I'm some kind of business orc.

oh drat, Mark's already got some prototypes of the Shadokesh in the flesh, and they look just like the 3D mockups, which is good. also a resin version of the hovertank that shows up on the boxart for the various Eisenkern/Valkir, which looks neat, though I'm not sure I'd get one.

I was beginning to despair, but my copy of Orc Stabr came yesterday, with a recipe for "Limm's Meat Cake."

I went to DragonCon last weekend. I'm not into dressing up as anything, but I proudly wore my Limm's Orc Army pin.

I got home last night all ready to post about my mailbox remaining unstabr'd, but secret birds delivered! Or possibly... ORC PILOTS delivered!   And I was reminded that I live a couple of minutes walk away from where PJ recorded the stomping sounds of thousands of rugby fans to be marching Uruk Hai in LOTR, which seems appropriately orcy. Thanks Limm and Nemesis of Moles, this is the best Kickstarter experience I've ever had.

I've said it before but y'all are really the best and seeing these posted is phenomenal. The whole team has been in a constant state of hype the past few weeks and it's really emboldened us for the next thing, so, your super welcome and thank you all so much

Thank you Nemesis of Moles and your coworkers for the replacement pins! We received 2 pins in their own little sealed thing and 2 monster cards! Maybe I'll actually remember to have my fiancee plug the scanner in so we can scan this stuff Also, I remembered that the initial envelope that had the broken pin also had a tear in it as if someone had tried to rip open a portion of it. Maybe I'm remembering wrong but I think someone said that the post office has people that'll try to open up envelopes if they feel coins in them. Is that a thing? If so, well, I'm glad the pin made it through even if it did end up damaged, though maybe the rip was from it being damaged in the first place.

My suspicion is that the button escape is a function of the processing machinery, given how widespread it is.

homullus posted:My suspicion is that the button escape is a function of the processing machinery, given how widespread it is. This is absolutely it. The Post office confirmed as much when we went to mail some of the other copies recently. Basically we mailed a test batch domestic and international with no problems, no escaped badges or anything. Then when time came to mail our first real batch, we were told everything should be fine - we even voiced concern about the small bulge in the envelopes that the buttons have. Turns out whoever told us that was just wrongo, hence us getting like 20 return envelopes and the whole button escape fiasco lots of people have had. It really sucks, but its fixable and we have the budget to replace buttons for days basically.

I think it should still be ok to mock mockingbirds though, right? "A lot the hell you know, you're just a dumb bird."

I cracked up seeing that cause I totally remember it being made by one of our team and me asking how exactly that was supposed to work. I asked for clarification just now and this is what I got;  Consider this the first bit of Orc Stabr Errata Edit: Update  This is very much a living game Nemesis Of Moles fucked around with this message at 17:25 on Sep 7, 2018 |

I should mention the kickstarted BattleCON Online finally got its public release on Steam, and all the characters are free to try in this opening week. So if you're up for fighting games that are actually card games that is now a video game, it's one of the best. Seeing it come from the rough early treatments to the game now available publicly has been fantastic. It's still rough around the edges - but the versus play works well and has been tuned pretty thoroughly, and that's the meat of the game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrfcS6LGQfE

You're right, it is a particularly egregious version of that whole FOMO exclusives nonsense, rather than a really common example. Doesn't look like the character is much more than a cool mini at least.

It sounds similiar to Kingdom Death, but less random and the enemies are robots instead of ambulatory dickmonsters. Is that about right?

Related to Traditional Games, a good friend of mine is currently using a Kickstarter to get some money for their boardgame cafe in Newcastle UK. I know the chance of many people here being the target demographic (ie living close) is unlikely but I thought I would share anyway! Here is the Kickstarter with all the relevant information for anyone interested https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/meepleperk/meeple-perk Even if people don't pledge any ideas on how to get more exposure would be greatly recieved!

Evil Mastermind posted:Is there a good "how the hell does this work" guide out there? I didn't think the tutorials were that helpful. It's a 98% straight adaptation of the boardgame so your best bet is just to read the rulebook: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4795muze7mroop9/Trials%20Rules.pdf?dl=0 (the only difference is the Force Special Action card in BCO is just Switch because you can play finishers from hand without needing to physically put down a second card to fool your opponent into thinking it's a pair). And if you still have questions afterwards, you can ask in the thread or in the BCO Discord which is linked from inside the game.
