I played a game of Terraforming Mars.

Churchill zum ersten Mal auf den Tisch gepackt, 3 1/2 Stunden später gewinnt Churchill, nur weil die US und die USSR gleichauf sind und meiner einen Vorteil hat. Und Churchill war einer der Bots. Menno. Aber schon ein cooles Spiel mit einem sehr interessanten System. Shared on Google+ by Georg Bauer: Holy moly, what a […]

Holy moly, what a beast of a game. Churchill is great, but man, this was just a training scenario with 3 conferences and it took something like 3.5 hours. And due to the Japanese not surrendering, the bastard Churchill won, because me (Stalin) and the US were tied without me breaking Germany and the US […]

Erstes Spiel von Days of Ire, über die ungarische Revolution in Budapest in 1956. Nunja, sagen wir mal, die originalen Ungarn waren deutlich erfolgreicher als ich. Shared on Google+ by Georg Bauer: First play of Days of Ire, took the solo variant with easy setting and got a heavy beating by General Zukhov. Hammered my […]

First play of Days of Ire, took the solo variant with easy setting and got a heavy beating by General Zukhov. Hammered my morale into oblivion, even though my people put up a good fight. Game plays kinda like a much more thematically strong pandemic in the coop/solo ruleset. Definitely want to get out the […]

Hoplomachus: Rise of Rome hat endlich Mal den Weg auf den Tisch gefunden, um mit den Titanen zu Kämpfen. Episch! (Und als Solo-Titel sehr zu empfehlen!) Shared on Google+ by Georg Bauer: One of my favorites: Hoplomachus. Normally I am playing Origins, because it is small, fast and simple, but I finally got Rise of […]

One of my favorites: Hoplomachus. Normally I am playing Origins, because it is small, fast and simple, but I finally got Rise of Rome out on the table to try out the titans. Definitely more depth than the simple challenges of Origins, but of course takes a bit more time to play through. I win, […]

/u/bboomslang on Izzet Pauper list post-MM17
A better card for evasion in Izzet Blitz is [[Apostle’s Blessing]], because it costs just one colorless mana, can both work as evasion (by giving your dude pro-opponent-color) and protection (by giving it pro-color-of-removal). You sometimes play one shadowrift, because that cantrips and gives evasion. But the blessings are what you run 3-of usually. So I think your list could do something similar for your Delvers to help them go through and alternatively protect your Alchemists, because you face very similar problems. They are rarely dead cards, unlike pure evasion cards, when you only have an alchemist and some lookout out and don’t plan on attacking but face removal.

Go Dimir and use the blue for painless draw and black for all the removal with board wipes and edicts and discard, then. So essentially tune up a solid UB creatureless control list with some only-on-paper cards like Hymn.

Will Magma Jet really be that great for UR Delver? Sure, “deal 2, scry 2” sounds nice, but Delver mostly wants the burn for removal, and 2 damage isn’t that great in a format where you reagularily face 1/3 (Seagate Oracle, Elusive Spellfist and in future Augur of Bolas) and 2/3 (Kor Skyfisher) and even bigger stuff. I think Delver really wants to run stuff that deals 3 and up. Sure, Magma Jet could become maybe a 1/2-of to replace some Preordain maybe, to open up the burn aspect a bit more while keeping up draw quality.
Thunderous Wrath on the other hand could really be something to play as a 1/2-of just on the off-chance you can get rid of an Angler or just burn 5 to the face as a finisher.

/u/bboomslang on [WSIG] COIN Series solitaire?
CT only will have one bot: the FLN. So not only is it just two factions, when soloing you are limited to play the government. That is why I dropped my P500.

In CL they suggest to solo either as the Government or as Castro, not one of the other factions, because the bots were built for those setups. And especially the government it can be hilariously dumb in that game. If you solo as Castro, you still have …

Red7 is my poison of choice. The advanced game is quite thinky and lots of fun and it fits easily on two plane tables.
