Umm, if I said I was really offended would you buy me the core-set? Otherwise yeah, it was obviously a joke but to be honest not far from the truth!

...racist (Rapid Anti Counter-Intelligence Special Team)? Ah... ok.... didn't think I was saying something offending... No, to go straight to business, I was really bad when I read that one but preferred not to answer directly on impulse. Well if @Muz333 had been offended, He would have told it, I mean... I don't know him from before this forum and nor des He do about me...we are perfect unknown peoples to each other if you want to go to the depths of the question. But, he say, we are on a board game forum, I feel good among you guys, I feel at home and we can share every single idea or question or impression about the game we are expecting so much and even beyond the game. We have fun, we may laugh from time to time and this is pretty good to me ! I will never speak about Politics or Religion here because this has nothing to do here. Nothing ! And why I say that ? Because it can ruin a relationship, even an online one where people may never meet each others for their entire life. I want to connect to this forum as much as I want to talk about the game (a little in my case) and about everything and nothing (a lot to much in my case).

So if I ever offend someone in particular, may that person feel free to send answer me publicly or privately to say me "Hold on, you moron, you insulted me, I challenge you to a gun fight right at the foot of Lucifers'throne in 9th Hell". I don't know how much the Devil will tax me for renting his private room in Hell but yeah, I can fix it anyway

And yes that was a joke. Muz333 doesn't seem offended (I hope, homie because you know how high I consider Scots and their country) and He knows so far that i'm the kind of joking about stereotypes. Anyone may joke about Belgians too, I don't care, as long as this is a good one . I have a Flemish friend who always is having fun at Walloons (most of the french speaking Belgians), and it can be hard ones. I had to ask him to stop after the tenth joke because it became very dark and I couldn't handle more. So yes, I understand there's a level of humor that shouldn't be reached by anyone... the problem is : Human is no exact science... so you never know if by just saying "Hi !" you didn't say too much for your own good....

I know what's follow may look a bit strange but while I'm at it, let's finish what i've begun so far above this line. It took me time to understand why hating people is really something bad. And I finally found out an acceptable answer for me : hate is a catalyzer of negatives waves within yourself, it blinds you to everything in your surrounding except its target. Hate is useless because it will consumes you before anybody around. Hate doesn't help anybody. Because if I Hate, say... Americans, I couldn't stand talking to some among them right now and would be insulting them or I don't know what kind of offending attitude. But the problem is firstly for myself : I close many doors by insulting peoples around or feeling rage against them and so on. So, yes, my jokes may go too far from time to time and that's because my big one does say to much... But as no one's dead (I hope...he @Muz333 are you still in perfect health condition after having read me calling you barbarian or so ? cause I've got my emergency kit if you want ), let's close the brackets and go on talking about our game.

Saying that : converting heroes in champions...oh gorgeous... Come on frenchie shop open your f***ing preorders....p.l.e.a.s.e.

Allow me to jump on this one, I hate how Americans pronounce Aluminium, it makes me cringe every time I hear it! For the avoidance of any doubt I don't think I've ever felt personally offended in my life so say what you want about me/nationality or whatever else with no fear.

thanks @Muz333 but I'll show nothing else but respect to you and anybody here...ok i'm just repeating myself like an old scratched vinyl...

So back to business who'll buy more than 2 core sets ?

...sigh...

I have resigned myself to the fact that I will, in fact, be getting two core sets. But only because I can't decide if I want to play Daqan or Waiqar. Buying two cores is cheaper than if I go all in on one faction and find out later that I like the other more.

As an American, I think I would probably pronounce Aluminium the same as you, even though I have no idea what Aluminium is. As for the metal, aluminum -- atomic number 13, abbreviated Al -- I'm pretty sure Americans pronounce it the right way. I do remember my high school chemistry teacher going on a tirade one day about how folks across the pond say "alumunium" even though there is no "i" after the "n" and many Americans say "nucular" instead of "nuclear."

This is a good topic for Simpsons references.

lol, for once that I try to go back to the original topic... the others have to keep going in this trip... well Elrad stop trying to be serious and keep going with it.

Ah, we spell the word differently. That accounts for our different pronunciations but I still say you are wrong. Also, what's up with putting the letter Z in everything when an S would suffice?

Back on topic, I'm definitely grabbing two cores unless we get completely blindsided by Uthuk Y'llan available on release. Which I really don't expect until probably Christmas.

Z's don't bother me, we American's LOOOOOOOOOVE Z's we put them everywhere, in fact we should just get rid of S's all together and sue Z's from now on. Z'S FOR EVERYONE! But really what bothers me more here is that text typing is far to commonly used, u is not a word, r is not a word, y is not a word...this made sense when you texted on a number pad and texts could only be less than 150 characters or some garbage like that, but now...it's just annoying...especially when people do it when using a keyboard or something, we seem to have been getting off topic again...I'm back on the buying 2 cores boat after selling some old games I never played on ebay. I'm going to trade the second core Daqaan with my buddy for his Waiqar so I can have all the skelliez(see what I did there?)

NO ! I disagree on this one with your @jek Oh I maybe will get very disgraceful too but to ME (Yeah, ME !) It's rather Z'z for everyone... Underztood ? You better, becauze I'll won't mizz thiz chance to kick your azz... ... .... ... ...

Oh, talking about reselling old games on Ebay, what kind of things should I look for before selling something online ? Never did this to be honest and my stuffs are packed with useless things I need to sell. Both for money and for room purpose. Then I buy 5 core sets and lock myself in my basement for gluing and painting during a week without any single sleep... .... NO I'm serious, should I first go to the Post office to ask them about the shipping costs ? I mean I imagine that I need to weigh every single box before asking for tax and get prepared with a pack of empty boxes ready to send away after payment, but... I've not done it before so what should be your adivces ? Thanks guys !

@jek

I assume you like Weird Al's Word Crimes? But we have all things we hate and are bad at (i personally would get rid of commas i'm just bad with them)

@Elrad

If you want to sell stuff there are some things to do, check the components, is something missing? If so how important was it and can you or the potential buyer still get replacement parts from the manufacterer? Is it in good or bad shape (be very honest about this) Take some pictures of the box and the components so people can actual see it and if something is damaged make sure to take a picture of that so people can decide if the damage is accepteable for them.Then get a box put the game + stuffing for safety purposes in it and measure the box + weight it, then you can ask your postal service for national and if you want international shipping, if possible ask different postal services to find the cheapest for you.

About the price, look at ebay, Boardgamegeek and similiar sites, I personally follow some ebay auctions for the game i want to sell, to see if they are bought at all and for what price.

best song on his new album

I just made a list for daqan and have rconsidered buying 2 cores. Originally I was just going to buy one but after this list I will buy another... If I can find a play group in New Mexico.

Spearmen 2x2 equiped with Shield wall, trumpets and War Crier. (42pts)

Oathsworn 2x1 equipped with master crafted weapons and rank discipline. (28pts)

1 run golem no upgrades. (17pts)

Kari with reaping blade and wraithstep. (37pts)

This list is from one core and sits at 124 points with Kari or 87 without. So if you take this list twice(without Kari of course) that is 174points. Or you could replace one War Crier with her to make it 187.

Curious where you got all the upgrade cards and costs?

I think if I could afford two cores I would. I plan to pick up another when the price point comes down for ffgs next big sale.

@taylorcowbell most of Daqan cards were shown in the last news release, and earlier releases have shown the other cards he mentioned. I'm curious if anyone has compiled the pics? I've downloaded most but haven't organized them yet.
