Creatures? Why would I want to play creatures? Well, I guess I have dabbled in creatures enough to remember some fun one-drops... Phyrexian Dreadnought: When I started playing, this was the biggest creature in the game. And such a bargain at only one mana. Pretty soon an erratum made it all but...

This is what I get for not keeping up with all the releases. I've never even seen Exquisite Blood. It with Sanguine Bond has to be one of the simplest and most decisive win conditions ever. Even if your opponent could avoid losing from the life loss, the triggers would keep piling up and the...

Revolution 9 - The Beatles (1968).

I think I get this. Let's see... King of the Road - Roger Miller (1965).

Kelgar: Someone help me hold him back before he triggers a magical trap and kills us all. Throg, stop it. You're drunk. Avorus: Um, I think Anton is drunk too. Anton: I am not *hic* drunk. The old man collapses onto some crates and falls asleep.

Carrow deftly evades Throg and trips him. Kelgar catches Throg before he lands in the bones. "Careful. There could be magic at work here."

Given my current avatar and signature, it's probably a bit obvious in my case...

Dorgath finds that the ale is very strong. He avoids getting drunk due to his high WILLPOWER attribute, but then he ends up getting drunk anyway due to Throg's PEER PRESSURE. Throg and Dorgath are now both afflicted by the INTOXICATED status for the next 8 turns. They are at -1 to hit and...

The crates seem to be empty. The barrels contain ale. Avorus: "Probably stolen from some merchants that were waylaid on the road like us. Maybe that's how the orcs get all their supplies."

Turn 1: -Throg muses on the engineering behind the current predicament. He wonders where the reservoir is and how big it might be. -Dorgath begins searching the wall near the door. He cannot find any mechanism for opening the floodgate. Now that it's shut, it is perfectly sealed. -Kelgar stands...

Watertight walls, non-airtight ceiling. Problem solved. Chemists can do physics if we have to. Sometimes. :p

Kelgar, Arcttus, and Avorus move to help Dorgath pull the chain up while Throg contemplates ways to die in the most ridiculous manner using the well. You seem to head something moving in the walls of the room, and then something bigger and louder down in the well, but still, nothing seems to be...

Also a note on the well: Dorgath would have a hard time squeezing down the well. It's not that the well itself is too narrow for him to drop into, but the iron bars at the top would block his passage. If the well opening had no bars, everyone present could fit through, although Throg and Kelgar...

Carrow confirms the identification of the Amulet of Fury. It's a simple one-use spell item. Anyone can use it to cast the spell, even those that don't know magic. Holding the crystal aloft and invoking its power can protect any chosen nearby individual so that the next blow that would hit that...

Oops. That's just the iron grate. I have an icon for a slime pit, but I forgot to change it. Also, no one has a pickaxe.

If you had some pickaxes, then maybe.

Dorgath searches the well chamber, but doesn't find anything new.

New map for this deep, this time with a hastily made legend... 1. Corridor: magical loop trap 2. Corridor: magically locked door leading north 3. Stone tableau room: Stone Grimcrag Grunnson, stone goblins 4. Magic circle room: cave-in 5. Corner: found 3 prisoners 6. Well chamber: slime pit...

I keep wanting to get back to this, but school is being dumb. I've got finals soon. I was going to make a new map, since it had been a while. I might do that tonight. For now, I will note that there is no route known to Dorgath by which he can lead the party back to the room with the stone...

CounterTop used to be all the rage in Legacy. There are a few other ways to exploit the card, but I can't remember most of them off the top of my head right now, but I'm really tired. Counterbalance was always the big one anyway, at least for tournament play. There were also Helm of Awakening...
