I'm interested to see what this set will do. I had mixed feelings about Kaladesh. It is one of the coolest looking sets ever (aesthetically), has exciting mechanics, and introduces its share of powerful cards. But it does little to pick up the pace that has been too hampered in recent years and...

-The Power Phase is 1. An Unexpected Event occurs! Piercing screams fill the dungeon. They intensify unnaturally, seeming to come from everywhere at once, threatening to overwhelm you in a wave of agony and despair. Everyone makes a Willpower check. -Throg passes. -Dorgath passes. -Carrow...

The western door of the vestibule. It was the same one you were going to listen at before you were ambushed.

Tomas determines that there are two different energy sources. One of them is inside the main chamber and is surrounding what he thinks is probably the holy fountain. The other is more spread out, patchy and diffused across a wide area. It is most concentrated directly ahead and prevents entry...

I think almost everyone did.

Last year, or perhaps the year before it, I was writing some article because that was a thing I was trying to do at the time. Anyway, I wanted to remember the exact composition of my stupid Constructs deck from the infamous Tribal Game #14. And I didn't find a record of it. Most of the decks...

Yes. I haven't rolled power for the turn following the combat, but it happens every turn. In fact, I can roll it now. Power Phase is 4. Lifebringer fizzles, though. Throg rolled a 1. :(

While in melee range with enemies that are trying to fight you, attempting to break away and move somewhere else, such as to attack another target somewhere else in the room or to protect an ally or whatever. To escape from being "pinned" requires a successful roll on a pinning check. This is...

Throg, Dorgath, and Carrow are also still hurt... -Dorgath's Lifestone of Ashraz heals him for 1 (17/21). -Tomas casts Lifebringer, fully restoring his own Wounds. As the icy prison dissipates, the goblin shaman begins trying to cast a spell, but the attempt fails again. Before the monster...

This ring is carved from ice. Although dripping water continuously it never seems to melt or lose its shape. This is a very specific type of magical freezing caused by Throg's ring. The name is a bit misleading since it even calls the projectile an "ice missile." To me, that really sounds like...

Note: you can administer healing potions to other warriors during combat. It takes your action for the turn, but does not prevent you from fighting. The rules were never very clear on whether this had to be your own potion or whether you could treat a prone fighter with a potion in his...

As much as I want to wax philosophical about some of the underlying issues here, that's really more something that should be the subject for an article. There's a lot I want to say and it's only tenuously connected to this particular announcement. Most of it is stuff that I've been thinking...

I'd been waiting to see if Melkor had any decisions for this (presumably involving blessing something and trying to hit something else with a hammer). But it was the weekend so I should probably have just posted the combat. I plan on doing so tomorrow after work either way.

Night goblins cultivate many kinds of toxic fungi in their dark caves. One particular variety, known as the Mad Cap, is much valued for its hallucinogenic properties. During battle, goblin fanatics gobble down handfuls of the these fungi to turn them into whirling green killing machines. The...

As you move to investigate the vestibule, the eastern door swings open and goblins flood in, ambushing you... G: Goblin Fanatic B: Goblin Boss S: Goblin Shaman

Tomas cannot tell much about the forcefield from the stairwell. He thinks that he could discern more if he were in proximity to it.

"Not much. There is a holy fountain ahead of us, but I cannot even see it through whatever that is..." Revaethan likes the idea of listening at the doors and will go with Dorgath.

Ty successfully opens the door, revealing the vestibule... Save for the markings on the floor, some ancient arcane symbols, this room is bare. To the left and right are shut doors, but directly ahead of you, the door is wide open, revealing a large chamber. Just through the doorway, entrance...

The lantern does an excellent job of illuminating the door, which is still looking stout and wooden. But it does have more light shining on it now, so there's that.
