  • Trump and his handlers just before the debate:

    Handler: Mr President… (he insists on being called that by his people) - before you go out there I want you to promise again that you won’t bring up the thing about people eating cats and dogs…
    Trump: yeah, fine
    Handler: Remember how we talked about this? And how you promised that you won’t bring it up no matter what happens?
    Trump: Yeah, fine, whatever.




  • Not a huge fan of inserts and I end up tossing them more often than not but the basic Res Aracana insert is one that I find exemplary. It doesn’t make the box larger than it needs to be, it has room for both expansions and most importantly it serves as an ergonomic storage tray during the game.

    I’ve seen third party inserts that looked tempting but they were too expensive and organized things differently from the way I liked. In particular I like to bag together everything that a given player color needs for their setup, that way I can just hand everybody their own bag for their personal setup.

    My favorite accessories are a couple of very cheap sectioned trays that I use as component trays for almost every game and some simple card holders for games that need it.






  • Thanks for the excellent review!

    Do you think that the early encounters will feel samey in repeated replays? StS is a “slow” deckbuilder in the sense that you don’t acquire new cards every round but only after encounters so you go through your starting deck a few times before you really start seeing new cards. This is fine in digital StS since it plays so fast but I wonder how early game feels on the table. How many rounds do early encounters typically take?
