prolix:

I don’t agree, but I have to admit your logic is persuasive.

He had me for a second, but look at that damn Monk. Just makes you want to banish him for that smug look on his face.

opkopk:

Our draw is either APP APP or APP HI. We can plan for either.

Fair enough.

Dave’s got an interesting decision and should set this up for an interesting finish (unless we’re in OpkOpk’s alternate game where he’s dominating.)

scottagibson · 2013-07-30T15:24:59.000Z

Is there a first step everyone can agree on? Take the Guardian to expose a potential card for the SCE? Banish a monster for the same reason?

opkopk:

He can’t banish them or kill them.

You’re talking like we’ve got a huge edge in power when we don’t.

opkopk · 2013-07-30T15:30:52.000Z

Taking the Guardian seems like a good first step.

I second the motion ;^)

(we should, damn I gotta let that go…) 2 more HI and 2 less APPs would really be nice.
We will soon enough. He has Marbane, HI, and militia.

Dave_Perkins · 2013-07-30T15:33:18.000Z

Checking out your votes now! Looks like banish the Nemesis. Here goes…

Gus_Smedstad1 · 2013-07-30T15:33:55.000Z

Banish Nemesis first.

scottagibson · 2013-07-30T15:35:19.000Z

Take the Guardian. If there’s something good under him, use the SCE.

Dave_Perkins · 2013-07-30T15:38:26.000Z

Oh hell yeah. SCE the Askara and make our mastery of the center officially BADASS?

opkopk · 2013-07-30T15:49:26.000Z

At least we haven’t drawn the HI yet.
Elder Skeptic and hope you draw 2 APPs
Buy the GoS
Buy the Askara
SCE an HI
Good chance of killing Tarik next turn

If you draw the HI
SCE the Askara
Buy an HI
Buy the GoS
Kill a Cultist

scottagibson · 2013-07-30T15:50:08.000Z

Yes, take the Askara. Put it on the top of deck and expose the next card. Play the skeptic to draw cards (including the Askara). Use the Askara to banish Akam.

opkopk · 2013-07-30T15:51:22.000Z

scottagibson:

Yes, take the Askara.

The only variable right now is whether we draw APP APP or APP HI. let’s see that first.

mctwitch78 · 2013-07-30T15:51:56.000Z

Yes but I’m tempted to snag guardian first to see what’s under door number two.

I agree with this logic. follow the OpkOpk

opkopk · 2013-07-30T16:37:34.000Z

We’re down 9 points but we get last turn.
My thinking is that we can put one card on top, there’s an HI in the stack already. 2 HI plus 3 cards is a real good chance to get Tarik next turn.
Either way we’ll want the GoS for stars and more HI to kill.

prolix · 2013-07-30T16:56:02.000Z

Am I the only person who doesn’t like the Guardian? Unless I am hardcore monster bashing I never take it, and sometimes not even then.

opkopk · 2013-07-30T17:00:27.000Z

I’m not usually a fan but it’s on the path to us winning. We can’t compete straight up. Our chance is to kill reds and get stars. In my mind our white money is only good for cheap stars from here on out. GoS fits both of those.
