    Magic Memories: Cursed Scroll

    Reading over my previous post, it occurs to me that Smallpox and the advent of Legacy "Pox" decks built around it has been dominating my perception of Pox in black decks for so long that I'd neglected to think about how things used to be. Sure, Smallpox is a great card. But Cursed Scroll was...

    Magic Memories: Cursed Scroll

    Most of my experience with Cursed Scroll has been in red-based aggressive decks, generally either monored or red/green. But perhaps the strongest niche for the card is in monoblack control decks, especially the "Pox" archetype. The card actually takes on a very different role in black control...

    Warhammer Quest: The Sylvan Epic

    That was how I was doing it before, but it was adding an unnecessary step in combat. I don't know how this combat will go. I'm excited that you guys initiated two encounters at the same time. But as for whether you use your Luck point, that's up to you. They usually go unused anyway, although I...

    Warhammer Quest: The Sylvan Epic

    Throg walks over and starts to check out the ooze. Simultaneously, Dorgath opens the door, revealing another root-encrusted chamber. It looks like it was once furnished to house someone. A derelict cell, but it's in extremely poor condition. All is quiet at first, then something stirs. The roots...

    Warhammer Quest: The Sylvan Epic

    This room is littered with bones and debris. In one corner, green ooze seeps from a rusted container.

    Warhammer Quest: The Sylvan Epic

    Both doors seem simple and functional. They're a bit damaged, but it seems to be from long-term disuse and the gradual encroachment of the tree roots from above. There's nothing audible behind the doors.

    WotC now banning "racist" cards

    So this is still a thing. Anyway: https://medium.com/@rich_87400/hasbros-crusade-against-representation-f20b21f65d64

    The walls don't seem to be hiding any secrets. Which door is Ty checking?

    Magic Memories: Cursed Scroll

    Rereading that old thread and yikes, I know everyone had to kind of learn the procedure for updating the board state as they went with our forum games, but I'd forgotten how bad I was about that in 2004. Glad Spiderman was patient with me. 🥺 I really like that R/G Sligh deck. I don't think that...

    Warhammer Quest: The Sylvan Epic

    Added items to character inventories. I threw the scroll in Kelgar's inventory, just because he can use it and his player is potentially still here. So does Ty want to add the Silver Stone to a weapon?

    Magic Memories: Cursed Scroll

    Mooseman mentioned Sligh, an archetype that once had a strong association with this card. Like a lot of efficient damage-dealing cards available in red, Cursed Scroll has seen play in both Burn decks and in Sligh decks. The difference is a matter of usage. In Sligh, Cursed Scroll was more often...

    That reminds me, I forgot that there was also gold in the chest with the items. We'll just divvy that up now and pretend I didn't forget at all!

    Warhammer Quest: The Sylvan Epic

    Since no one else has posted anything all week, I'll assume the party follows Carrow's lead and gets out of the first room... You're in a root-encrusted passage. It forks, with a door to the left and a door to the right.

    Magic Memories: Cursed Scroll

    I think that I first saw Cursed Scroll around the time that it came out, but I didn't begin using it myself until a few years later. By then, the card had really caught on in tournament environments and developed quite the reputation. Being an efficient, repeatable source of targeted damage was...

    Dorgath opens the right chest. -Rapid Fire Bracelets: +1 Attacks with missile weapons when worn. Worth 450 gold. -Silver Stone: bonds to a weapon permanently, enchanting it. On a to-hit roll of 6, enchanted weapon deals an extra 1D6 damage. Worth 250 gold. -Cataclysm Spell Scroll: Can be used...

    Magic Memories: Cursed Scroll

    I'm in the middle of a full sort of my entire Magic collection. On Sunday, while handling my Mirage cards, I spotted my entire playset of Cursed Scroll. As you may already be aware, Cursed Scroll is not a Mirage card. It's from Tempest. They'd been misfiled with the card Cursed Totem (which...

    Carrow identifies the sword. Unfortunately, he can't use it. At least, not yet... Dragon Sword: refuses to be drawn from its scabbard by any character below Battle Level 4. On a to-hit roll of 5+, this sword deals double damage. Worth 1,200 gold.

    Commander: Mooseman v SealTeamBill v Oversoul

    I've seen it done before and I've seen the deck win games, although it isn't the strongest of the decks from Commander 2019. The flashback theme gets squeezed into the same deck as the prowess theme and the token-making theme.

    Despite my attempts to trap him, Dorgath rolls well and finds the hidden poison barb mounted to the lock on the chest to the right. The chest to the left doesn't seem to have one.
