Descent: Road to Legend

Haha.

I can't wait for RtL to arrive.

I just skimmed over the rulebook and everything looks pretty cool.

I guess we'll have it in our greedy little hands by the end of March? (hopefully).

haha! that's awesome! I wish I had an official Descent character/monster/thing named after me. Still working on the rules though; this is an entirely different game!

Hmm, the theming seems all wrong on that card. Here is my crack at Thaadd the destroyer:

THAADD THE DESTROYER
Keeper of the bits

Full inbox attack: If hit Thaadd must miss his (her) next turn as she has to catch up on 3 days worth of email.
Fanboy Ire: At the end of each turn roll a power die, on a blank result some guy at boardgamegeek complains that the game he brought has damaged shrinkwrap and the BGG mob boycott FFG; Thaadd must deduct half her gold.


Minions
2 internet spaceships, 1 creepy board game geek user with a crush

Reward
If you defeat Thaadd you may raid the spare parts boxes and take a copy of every item in the game.

Rock.

I think I might need to do a mockup.

How can it not be cool for any geek to be immortilized in a boardgame? Years from now you'll be able to point at a card/bit and say, "heh, heh, that's me."

One question. Why do you look like someone just told you your cat died?

That is as close to smiling as most people can get me when I am not caught offguard. I think I have a rather goofy smile, so tend to look dour. And I took the picture myself, using my fancy new Mac.

Where is my pool money?

Hunh?

Pool money. There was a betting pool on just what sort of monster I am. Skellie says Hill Troll, despite my Ogre minions...


I will include something roughly equivalent to poolmoney, if you ever use your bloody playtester credit... you're screwing up my books, boneface!

Oh, okay. So... is he right? Are you a Hill Troll?

No Skellie says, Skellie knows!
And if you don't know how I know you better turn in your FFG badge post haste.

Ha! the only badge I have is a little pirate one. Try prying me out of my office, no... really.

I am a sci fi geek. Eldar before Elves. I am ok with failing the ogre geek check.


(That said, 3 out of 5 days after work this week, I'm playing Descent. Heh.)

It's a Hill Troll, not an Ogre! *shakes fist*

I asked The Man. He said, just because Runebound, maketh not Descent. He also thought it was very silly to argue about.

That's like saying Kingons can be blue in Deep Space 9 because it isn't "Star trek the original series."
Same universe, same creatures. You're a Hill Troll or a monster dressed up as a Hill Troll.
