Oh man, I've been eyeing this game for a while, but I just cannot justify the price tag to myself. I'm gonna watch this closely, and hopefully not get swayed into spending money I don't have. Looks really interesting.

It's great. Try to find 2 other people that want to play and split it 3 ways. It's an awesome game.

Torch Thieves is a fine party name

Mindthief name: Splinter

Cragheart and Brute should be Rocky and Bullwinkle respectively.

Mindthief PQ: These both suck because we can unlock either of these through reputation. That said I pick Fall of Man because I already know what Sun is and I'm predicting that most players will make "good guy" choices which will lead to Sun being unlocked organically.

Cragheart PQ: The Angry Face one because we don't want redundant Sun unlocks.

Brute PQ: This one is tough because I know what Two Minis is and I really like it but IDK what Lightning Bolts is. I'm picking the safe option of Two Minis though.

City Event:. I'm going to consistently vote for the rear end in a top hat options because my IRL group has already done mostly good guy options. So option B.

The PQ isn't for 2 minis though. It's angry face (#14)

I'm going on 10.

I want to use the Bottom of Spare Dagger (attack 2) on Bandit #5
I want to use the Top of Sweeping Blows on Bandit #5 and #6

Alternate scenario: (I will leave this up to you to decide which one will be better given what my partners do)
My INTENT is to try to use Sweeping Blow to attack the max amount of bandits that I can.

I'm going on 64
Using bottom of Grab and Go to get into position to hit 3 bandits
Using top of Sweeping Strike to hit 3 bandits"]

You can freely move through hexes occupied by your allies even when using a basic movement action, in case this is having an impact on your orders (but they can't stop in an hex that is already occupied).

Hey SalTheBard, don't forget to let me know which cards you want to recover with your Minor Stamina Potion! You do have one (instead of the health potion) since the thread has voted for boots of striding + minor stamina potion for the Brute's intems.

Yep will PM you shortly.

Sorry, actually I misunderstood what you said. With the Bandit disarmed my plan was to engage the Archers in the back since I have a tool I can use to "disarm" the two traps back there and deal a fair amount of damage at the same time.

Quick rules question:

If I have a card that is Move 4 / Push 1 can I move 3, push, move 1 or do I have to take all the "move" at once?

No problem. Since the bandit went after you did last round, his disarm has already worn off, so he will be able to attack this turn. If you want, I can try and finish off the bandit guard and free you up to go after the archers.


All at once.

You could draw a rough copy of the current board state. I assume you have some kind of minis around you could use?

Thats a good idea! I don't actually own Gloomhaven, my brother in law does so I use all of his stuff, but I have a hex map for DND and some minis so I can draw this out a bit.

Do we have any way of getting rid of one of the traps? I don't mind "disarming" it via bodying the trap but I would prefer not take the damage if I don't have to.

My plan is to go kind of fast, I'm going to open the door and then charge straight in. If there are any sort of ranged mobs I'm going to attack the ranged mobs. Unless something goes crazy (like drawing a null) I will probably one shot whatever I attack.

If you're moving further, I would recommend going later so I can heal you first?

If there are mobs that I can engage, I plan on engaging. If you would like me to go slower I can.

If you both go late there's a chance the monsters go and waste their turn moving towards you two after I open the door and go invisible.

I like this man.

(Side story)

I played yesterday with my actual group, I can't remember which mission it was but we opened the door, I popped invisibility, then long rested, which caused all the mobs to bottle neck in a gigantic cluster gently caress. On my next turn I went super fast, used 2 attack cards (1 top , 1 bottom attack), and then with smoke screen dished out something like 12 points of damage and killed 2 mobs. It was pretty legit!

If I just stop in the door none of the monsters will move. Is that what you guys want? Unless there are ranged monsters that can reach you guys from the first tile in.

I think Invis Blocking the door is great. I'm going to have a lot of movement this round so unless this room is stupid big I should be able to reach the back of it and murder whatever I hit.
