Re: Dignan's Maps - 10/29 - New Maps!

I got a chance to play on both Striking Distance and Can't see the Jungle last night. They are both fantastic!

There are lots of little design brilliancies here, and the terrain use is simply...

Re: Embrace the Reality

Well said Finrod!

There was an absolute blizzard of speculation when the wave 7 units were announced, and the Books were put up before anyone had the figures. Then you had about 10 pages of...

My only problem with this idea is that...the rules are written for 8-12 year olds, and the master rules only fill 10 pages. If that's not already a bare-bones, "for dummies" version, then I don't...

Nice work Necroblade! I really like your style/aestetic sense. Great use of glyphs.

So Brunak starts out adjacent to NGS, and only wants his total move to be 1 space (the space that NGS is on, which is adjacent)? He then wants to place NGS next to him on some other space? Is that...
