I guess the issue for us has just been that it’s been hard to keep up with the cadence solely because there’s no track community here that I know of. This all the new mechanics introduced in every set felt very over the top. That’s a very personal feeling though, not making a general rule if it 😇

Hehe, I’m indeed waiting for her to be back ! Playing her in sage reminded me she’s the only hero I really got to master. She looks so cool too, I feel connected to the character.

Yesterday, I asked Claude (in cursor) what the best way to go about deploying my tiny app to my VPS would be. As a side-effect of that, it offered to create a private repository for it, and to add an ansible role to my setup also. Which, it did, both, with approval but no supervision.

Which would be fine if competitive CC decks were 50E. But they're not.
I sometimes feel like the whole game is gate kept by its prices, and the chasm between players who have been around forever (with a high level and large collection) and new players being punished for not being there earlier.

It was Slippy. It hit me hard. I started with Aurora: 3 months later banned. I continued with Slippy: ban the only card that made the deck somewhat function. Now switched to Kassai, but the big players are picking it up, and already rush it to LL.

We love that game with my wife, we play it all the time, but the community building is a total miss. Here in Germany there's no one to play with, or if there is, no easy way to find them and connect.
Also, we can't keep up with new content. We essentially treat it as a board game at this point.

Also, yeah, SAGE, I'm actually excited about the format, and I had the best games ever with that format. Will probably stick to it in the future: short, every decision matters, lots of tension, love it.
But unless they start seriously shifting gears, I don't see myself sticking to cc.

I think there's a fundamental issue in how cards/rarity is printed, and how that relates to meta management in FAB.
I'd like them to see the light. I love the game, but if even a relatively rich person like myself gets turned down by the cost of the game, imagine the impact on "normal" players.

I hear the argument about meta rotation quite often. It's sound and healthy, in theory.
In practice, if you don't have a pre-existing, vast collection; switching deck represents an enormous cost. Any freaking deck in the game is still to this day >600E.

It was slippy. The Bonds ban basically took its fangs. I think there were better bans, but that's another discussion.

Happy to beta test or participate in any user research you‘d run 🙇♂️

I love your app, it's super easy to use and elegant!
Two small pieces of feedback after using for some weeks:
* I'm alway confused that the opposite player selection is at the bottom and vice versa.
* For big life loss, sometimes the change is accepted too quick, leading to wrong scores.

Je suis peut-etre un con de gaulois, mais je pense qu'on est une majorite a vouloir une reponse forte et ferme. Autant nos problemes de dettes, il faut negocier, en parler, s'impliquer. Autant se faire tordre le bras, meme si ca veut dire qu'on va y perdre, c'est non, en gardant la tete haute.

Chiffres qu'on trouve sur internet: la famille de madame aurait 725M d'euros d'actifs. En etant conservateurs, disons que 30% sont investis sur des placements a faible rendements faible risque, 4%/an.
Apres impots madame touche 500k/mois a ne rien faire, et veut donner des lecons sur le travail?

The only other time I got to play it was at last year‘s Skirmish; and all the new players got wrecked by decks we’d never seen. Flesh is expensive and hard enough as it is, why insisting on gatekeeping the competitive scene for an old timer elite?

My somewhat new player perspective: they need to stop pushing LL. Sure it’s an opportunity to play Aurora, which got me into the game, before getting banned 2 months later (thanks LSS). But I never get an opportunity to play LL, because… no one wants to play it regularly.
