I agree that sealing is better, but it is also useful to spend those gate tokens for blessings, allies, spells, etc. It also helps avoid monster surges. There are only so many clues on the board at a time... _________________ Deja Q - GM Hall of Fame: Trial By Fire (Saar, 1st), W1 (Naalu, 1st), Small Worlds (Naalu, 2nd) "Thou art directed to return to thine own solar system immediately."

I actually don't mind monster surges, as it keeps the doom track from advancing. _________________ The Spice Must Flow- GM New Frontiers- Muatt The Last Hope- Letnev BGGB 11- Yin Game History Trial by Fire- Xxcha, 5th Place BGGB 06- Naalu, 1st Place Galactic Gladiators- Jol Nar, 1st Place Casus Belli - Winnu, 2nd Place Encounter at Farpoint- Yssaril, 1st Place

I think it would be ok for me to GM AND play since it's a co-op game. _________________ The Spice Must Flow- GM New Frontiers- Muatt The Last Hope- Letnev BGGB 11- Yin Game History Trial by Fire- Xxcha, 5th Place BGGB 06- Naalu, 1st Place Galactic Gladiators- Jol Nar, 1st Place Casus Belli - Winnu, 2nd Place Encounter at Farpoint- Yssaril, 1st Place

I don't think we ever made a clear decision whether the new board should be only for TI3 or for other games as well. I guess a few games in a sideforum will be fine, though. _________________ Tech Lover's Paradise: The Naalu Collective - Down with the kulaks!

Only into the second turn, but it is going well. It seems like GMing one of those games is quite an investment, which is probably why it takes so long to get into a game. Using the excellent Vassal module would make that process a lot easier. Yes, GMing and playing a co-op should be no problem. AH is less of an investment than TI3, so I would probably join in. _________________ Deja Q - GM Hall of Fame: Trial By Fire (Saar, 1st), W1 (Naalu, 1st), Small Worlds (Naalu, 2nd) "Thou art directed to return to thine own solar system immediately."

However, I wouldn't mind learning more and trying again. _________________ Game 1: Encounter at Farpoint: Yin Game 2: Fate of the Empire 2: Letnev Game 3: Fate of the Empire 3: Hacan Game 4: W2: Nekro (In progress) Game 5: New Frontiers: Nekro Game 6: TiP: Xxcha (replacement) Game 7 Encounter at Farpoint 3: (In Progress) GM Fallen Empire (In Progress) Small Worlds (completed)

Yes, according to their waiting list, they are using Photoshop and Excel, with almost no automation. That is probably very tedious for the GM. I have GM'd two BSG games on BGG so far, using OpenOffice Calc and Gimp but the spreadsheet for that uses a lot of macros for automation. If the game was moving at a quick pace that was a lot of work. If you want to use Vassal for AH, that is of course another story because the BGG forum does not allow attachments. Given that the new site will not have such a tight attachment restriction, trying out some other games will not be a problem. I will post something about this in the announcement forum as well. _________________ Tech Lover's Paradise: The Naalu Collective - Down with the kulaks!
