Wow, that is some sanctimonious bs, if I ever heard it. I know I have that pearl clutching emoji somewhere.....

I did argue the topic to absurdity, though I didn't argue the opposite scenario, I just applied it to other fictional universes. I did use the words censorship and cancelled, the first time I used censorship, I did do it in a hyperbolic way, and meant too. As to cancelled, I could've said banned or "dmhed", but by your definition of cancelled would apply. As to the 2nd time I used censorship I stand by it. My point was the characters are fine, horrible people, but fine characters in a fictional universe. Don't dmh them Wyrd.

So by that reasoning, anything that doesn't follow the progressive ideals of this society, (not the fictional society that the fictional character is part of), the Joker should be banned from Batman, for the fictional women beating of Harley Quinn, and the fictional rape of Batgirl. Murder is against our social standards, should we ban all fictional murderers too? Where does the censorship end. I mean why stop there, let's do the same thing to tv. Got to get rid of Homelander from "the Boys". Every episode of Law & Order: SVU? Maybe we should start looking at religious texts, Should we ban the bible for incest, rape, slavery and murder? What makes these (fictional) characters horrifying, are the (fictional) horrible things they do. I find Sonnia and Rasputina to be just reprehensible for the (magical) slavery, and the cannibalism, should we cancel them as well? If we follow your reasoning to it's logical conclusion we will end up playing "My little Pony, personally I won't be playing that game.... Please don't think of this as an attack on you personally, it is not. My liberal ideals, makes me hate censorship, especially speech I don't like or agree with. As an example, I despise fox news, but I don't want it silenced, because I would become what I despise.

I understand what you're saying, and get it. The company also needs to understand that taking away fun and entertaining characters may also have existing players leave the game. My 20 yr old daughter plays maulifaux, she loves Seamus. So you want take her favorite master away, because it may offend somebody who doesn't even play the game. Is that what a company wants to do? Ostracize the existing player base, in the off chance it may offend someone who may or may not even spend a dime on it.

Just deleted and reinstalled again seems to be working now.

The app is definitely buggy can't see half the cards, did the same thing as op and same results.
-
Nah, it would have to be arena with stands, entrance ramp, boxing ring, and, of course, the gremlin announcers table would have to be destructible.....

I've been mainlining the Viks and Parker and find all 3 of our upgrade not worth the tax anymore. I would rather have the stones...
-
Yeah, I get it . I've been making Viks and Parker since the beta. I've been playing since 1.5 and have multiple crews in several factions, but life keeps me from playing as much as I like. Thanks for sharing your perspective!
-
I was curious, for the reasoning. I've noticed most of your posts deal with Hamelin and why you chose bandits instead.
-
I wanted to play Hamelin, but when I saw the encounter I wasn't sure how it was gonna perform, and I must admit I change my mind. Not gonna happen again. Also want to see how they perform. Why?
-
I just wanna see someone play this: Zipp Earl Von Schill Mancha Roja Wrastler Wrastler Wrastler Just sayin'...

Butterfly jump needs a cost, be it a trigger with a suit, a discard or something...

Already downloaded it, nice job!! -
I've been playing the viks for the last few games and while the the sling shot/ Scion are both undoubtedly good, sometimes it can be counter played or terrain is bad for it or so forth. Plus with Marlena in the mix, I have been trying to leverage more out of Ashes. I've been playing pokeball Viks and it's been a lot of fun, both for me and my opponents. In my last game, I managed to get a Dragon's bite off, with sister's in fury on Ash and Vanessa, and Blood just with the Mark on a executioner, killing it and, 2 watchers, and putting a bruising on Nelly, phiona moved twice, then Dragon's flighted Nelly, pushing into the printing press, killing it and burying, next turn Nelly pushed Ashes towards Phiona makes Phiona fast, child casts fury, Phiona drops debt and charges Blood, does 4 twice dropping here to htk. Then killing, but wait, soul tether goes off, Blood is back to 6, w/Htk. Vanessa is slow, walks within 6 of Phiona and drops Blood. Blood could've charged, but I went with a slow Ash and Dragon bite Phiona dropping her to 2 after all the Sister attacks and prevention, Finished her off with Blood on my next Activation. Glorious!!

Impossible to read on a mobile phone. -
I gave him Kang's hat & put the the partial ashigaru from the Yan Lo model in front of him. So now it looks like he's doing what Yan can't.
-
That's an Izamu proxy.

They're bigger. Takes the same amount of space in my case, as 2 Joroguomo.

I have a HH tourney coming up in a week or so, and i think i may go with this: Oftoto w/ call thunder 3 ss cache Sidir w/ promises Chiaki w/ pull of the grave Clock work trap Trying to slow everything, then beat it to death w/ Ototo. Works well with McCabe, should be able to handle this.

This is terrifying.....

While its unlikely that Aionus will kill Killjoy, he can wound him to the point one of your other models can take him out with minimal effort when he does appear.
