Visit from the Rhine Moor visitor expansion General Location : Utah but I'll ship anywhere Solemn Vow: I will never grinch someone. If someone is grinched, please let me know. I'll do my part to help a Goon in need Tiny Chalupa fucked around with this message at 02:42 on Dec 11, 2021 |

Holiday cheer has arrived, accompanied by the sounds of the dogs enthusiastically greeting/threatening the mail carrier. John Carter source books! I've gotten super into reading Modiphius 2D20 source books as a way to entertain/torture myself for the last year and a half. Nothing like picking up a new hobby that you can't do because of a pandemic lockdown. I finished reading all of the Dune and Conan books, so John Carter gets to be my next obsession!  Flipping through them I came across this section, and it tickled my fancy for some reason. Just thought I'd share it in case other people would find it similarly interesting. Thank you so much, secret gift giver! There was no note in the package, but this is almost certainly from my lightning round 4 Santa, as John Carter wasn't listed as a gift idea until then.

I don't think it's your LR4 santa, I think maybe your LR3 santa took note of your LR4 updated list! But I'll wait a moment to be sure before I record it as such in the Spreadsheet of Cheer.

Leperflesh posted:Spreadsheet of Cheer. This really sounds like an oxymoron but I realize it's not in this ONE case If there is another Lightning Round I will jump in, this is a much needed source of fun (with a little stress) in a time of great stress (with too little fun) Gift Preferences: I would mostly like weird but useful miniatures. I mostly play generic fantasy RPGs so things that could be PCs, NPCs, weird monsters, etc. Very cool sci-fi heroes or strange aliens are also ok if they are sufficiently awesome. I love board games and card games but I'm very hard to buy for because I haven't managed to put together an avoid list - I'll have it done by next year for sure. I mean, if you have an extra copy of Gloomhaven lying around I won't say no, but I don't really have anything else on my radar. Feel free to ask (through Leperfish) if you have something you think is cool. I love fun, hard, silly, and/or complicated games that can be played by 3-5or6 people. That war of whispers earlier in the thread seemed neat, I hadn't heard of that before. General Location: Florida, unfortunately Solemn Vow: There's never been a grinchy me, and never shall I a grincher be.

That's 8 for LR5?  rydiafan posted:Holiday cheer has arrived, accompanied by the sounds of the dogs enthusiastically greeting/threatening the mail carrier. This was from me LR3! I was trying to play it safe since the information had changed. I also didn't know if you had the core book that they had so I tried to play it safe there too. It seems there is a few more various books and things I wasn't sure if you had or not already. I had initially wanted to get you the miniatures the company has for it, but that website was out of the EU and it may not have got there in time. Mophidius had another american-based website, but that website didn't have any of the minis in stock. Very frustrating. I wanted to get you the third book that goes with this, but I couldn't find it on amazon at the time so I went with that. I thought I had marked it as me but I guess I forgot

ibntumart posted:Status update on gifting: LR2 and LR3 orders have arrived and should be out by tomorrow afternoon. I'm glad you like it, I was unsure about this one. I've heard good things about the adventures in this book. That copy looks a little beat up mind you. There's something else on its way to you at some point, just a silly thing. I'm also glad it survived its 600 mile detour all over your state.

GreenBuckanneer posted:This was from me LR3! Well thank you so much, and I appreciate all the effort you put into your gifts. My lightning round 4 gift has shipped, so I'm all caught up. That can only mean one thing... Sign me up for Lightning Round 5, please! Gift Preference: Handmade stuff, weird obscure stuff, old stuff. If you're buying something new, pretty much anything that falls under the Traditional Games umbrella is fine. Random RPG books, random euro games, random Ameritrash games, random miniatures, whatever. As long as you don't buy me something like Munchkin I'm happy. If you're the kind of person who prefers to know exactly what to buy somebody, I could use anything for the Modiphius 2D20 John Carter game (except for the two books GreenBuckaneer got me) and anything Dune themed EXCEPT the 2D20 RPG or the board games (I have those already). General Location: Wisconsin, USA Solomn Vow: I bought gifts for three people last year (and five so far this year) and Grinched none of them. I ain't planning on doing it this time. rydiafan fucked around with this message at 01:43 on Dec 11, 2021 |

Something got delivered, and it was for me and I wasn't expecting it. it's a big box and it rattles. There's a hand written card!  And a personal message from the commander of the KGL!  And an entire Perry Miniature BATTALION OF INFANTRY TO COMMAND!  I have the Waterloo Boxed set, but I didn't have a unit I could use as the KGL. Now I do! Not sure how I can equip them, with the Baker Rifles that the 2nd Light Battalion King’s German Legion had, but I will need to try. And the ENTIRE buildings and courtyard to fight one of the most iconic battle locations of all time! . Terrain that has it's own Wiki page. quote:La Haye Sainte (named either after Jesus Christ's crown of thorns or a bramble hedge round a field nearby[1]) is a walled farmhouse compound at the foot of an escarpment on the Charleroi-Brussels road in Belgium. It has changed very little since it played a crucial part in the Battle of Waterloo on 18 June 1815.  I was just expecting a hill or a tree or something, but this is way above what I expected! Thank you NT RABBIT! Nothing is broken. This page goes into great detail of the battle and fighting that happened- if you've seen Sharp's Waterloo, when the Prince of Orange ordered a Battalion to reinforce and retake the building, and twice let them get cut to pieces by French Heavy Cavalry...this was that building complex. Useful for any 28mm battle, historical, fantasy, World Wars or 40k. The roofs and stories come off so I can do interior battles. I can use it for Oathmark, Rangers of Shadowdeep, The Silver Bayonet, Napoleonic and Bolt Action. (One question- who is the manufacturer of the building? I quite like it). On a personal message, last night one of the blood vessels in my eye blew out and I had to go to emergency for it for 4 hours. The good news is it's only a small one so I can still see out of it. This present arriving made me feel happier than I did when I woke up. It will be a big project to paint it but I look forward to doing so - it's big and easy to paint even with a bad eye. Thank you, Goonsir. Comstar fucked around with this message at 06:11 on Dec 11, 2021 |

Couldn't find a box of mans dressed like line infantry and armed with the Baker, but figured it's close enough The letter is from the Field Marshal commanding the entire Allied Army, not just the KGL commander  I was a bit worried because just as I was about to send it the historicals thread started dumping on Waterloo  quote:This page goes into great detail of the battle and fighting that happened- if you've seen Sharp's Waterloo, when the Prince of Orange ordered a Battalion to reinforce and retake the building, and twice let them get cut to pieces by French Heavy Cavalry...this was that building complex. They're from the historical section of Printable Scenery, who are from Weta Works in their day job, via my own 3D printer. There's a bunch of really cool stuff there, including more provincial French and farm buildings that work for fantasy and historical. quote:On a personal message, last night one of the blood vessels in my eye blew out and I had to go to emergency for it for 4 hours.

I got another present! The note enclosed tells me this for a dumb joke, but apparently I am the dumb one, since I am not getting the punch line yet. As my reward for reassembling the first man of tree from Santa #2, I get a treeman that will not cause serious injury when thrown at a person.  But these block dice on the other hand are remarkably heavy, so you may want to have the Dodge skill.  And what lurks in this secret chamber?  A handcrafted Frank 'N' Stein Star Player!     Thanks, Santa #1! That's Frankly impressive! I appreciate that you put your own work into the gift!

Looks like there was a delivery this morning. The wife brought it in, and it had been inspected by our security elements. Let us see what this may be.   There's a note!  What a lovely rendition of jolly 'ol St. DickButt.   Nice Arbites!   That is a bunch of Mandalorians. Thank you, TG Secret Santa! It is very much appreciated! Added bonus, today is my birthday, so it adds another layer of awesome.

I have a bit more time to take photos now... There was a jingle of bells and a distant hollow laughing outside my window two nights ago. I opened my door to find...this!  That's a VERY gonzo RPG system and a bucket of obscure dice, perfect! I already have uses in mind for the dice at my group's Christmas session. The art is wild and crazy. I'd heard of Dungeon Crawl Classics but not this version:  More detail of the many crazy chance polyhedra here. Never seen a D14 or a D16 before. I wonder what uses them...  Thanks, anonymous Santagoon!

Santee #2's main gift arrived today and I'm super excited about how it turned out. I've been sitting on Santee #1's stuff waiting for some special wrapping paper but I'm afraid it won't get here in time, so I'm wrapping everything for both Santees to be shipped out Monday.thegodofchuck posted:You're welcome! You said you liked dice, purple, and mind flayers, so I think I was morally obligated.  (Seriously, thank you! They're my default GMing dice now.) My other Santa has blessed me this day with an extremely fine lad that I'll try my best to not ruin:  Along with a promise of more to come:  I heckin' love this mini and look forward to parts 2-3! Thank you, mystery goon!!!

My holiday cheer arrived earlier this week but I finally had a chance to sit down and unbox! I’ve played a lot of Splendor on Steam, so I’m stoked to have a physical copy that I can bring as a palate cleanser on game night. I dig a game that seems simple, but can get surprisingly cut throat. Thanks Santa Goon!

LR 5 is off! And with that, there will be no more lightning rounds. Most gifts have already arrived, there's a ton in transit, and only a handful for which I have no information yet. Gentle Check, please read: If you haven't sent a gift yet, don't feel too bad: there's still time! But you are getting right down to the wire. The following SANTAS I don't have any info noted to indicate that you've sent anything yet. But I often have errors. If you're on this list erroneously, please let me know!

A golden bubble pack arrived in the mail today. Inside, I first discover the following message and mysterious hamsas  Inside a fancy pouch are the aforementioned high-vis dice.  My phone camera does not do justice to how bright or high contrast they are. They are very! Inside a shiny silver pouch I then find a much larger hamsa which opens and is large enough to contain some dice  Finally, there are three anti-OSHA d20s which are the very opposite of high-vis but are none the less cool colors. Thank you, mysterious benefactor goon
