Also I am posting from my phone. More details tonight when I get back home. Power roll is 4.

It's not one of your spells, but characters can use their action for the turn to attempt things and being a wizard, Tomas can try to interact with magical systems. Ordinarily, you can't disrupt an enemy spell. But because Darenaeok is attempting powerful conjuration, I have been using Tomas to...

Ah, I see. Kelgar's healing abilities wouldn't reach, but either wizard could try to send a healing spell across the barrier. They won't know for sure if it would work until they try.

Dorgath, Otto, and Darenaeok are the only ones on one side of the shimmering barrier. For plot-related reasons, Darenaeok will not assist Otto. I'm sure his wound isn't that bad though, and he'll get back up any minute now. Everyone else is doing it. So right now I've got... Throg: Still...

Working in Environmental Health & Safety for a university. Some of the work I've already done on the campus as a contractor has overlap with the job I'll be doing, so it should be a good fit. Not a very big raise as far as actual gross income, but I'll be working steady 40-hour weeks instead...

I think that the mandatory retirement age raises an interesting point, but ultimately I don't think I'd advocate for it.

New draws sent out.

I'd meant to get to this sooner. I was on vacation for a bit and then was distracted afterward. Upside is that I'll be getting a new job soon that won't be such a timesink as my current one has been.

-The Power Phase is 6 for this turn. -Dorgath's Lifestone of Ashraz heals 2 of his Wounds. -Skullcrusher blasts Darenaeok with his Lightning Fire Ring (14 damage). Darenaeok staggers. -Tomas casts Lifebringer, healing Dorgath for 5, Carrow for 4, Tyresius for 2, and himself for 6. -Darenaeok...

Trump isn't the president America needs, but he is the president America deserves. :oops: Or perhaps not. I don't know. Like a lot of people, I was surprised.

I hope they know what they're doing.

"Each time the target is attacked this turn, roll a D6. On a 6, all Wounds that the attack inflicted are rebounded onto whoever caused them. This does not rebound spells." -Continuing combat... -The Sword of Hoeth is like lightning in Carrow's hand. Carrow gains double attacks for the turn...

I have backups of nearly all of my articles, and could easily go through and make sure if I were really invested in the bad old ones I wrote like a decade ago. The "Type Fun" series might not be archived anywhere else (former CPA member Al0ysiusHWWW and I collaborated to start a casual Magic...

Mark Rosewater got the question on his blog and essentially said that the expansion symbol gets the rarity that the card would hypothetically have if it were to appear in a booster. This is immensely silly.

I want to elaborate on the history here, but especially on the core set. Even though I'm not a Standard player, it has become the most important format for the game and that gives it wider implications. I do think that speeding rotation up was a mistake, and reverting that is a step in the right...

It still cracks me up that they include rarity symbols in a set with preconstructed decks that have exactly one of each card in them besides basic lands.

Most of the portals he summons show up near him. So you did have a clear path to him, but you got blocked by a newly arrived beastman.

Witch Elves are among the most cruel, evil, and savage of all dark elves. They do not carry shields, caring nothing for their own protection, and are armed with sharp swords and long knives. As the Warriors close in on Darenaeok, two beastman champions and three witch elves attack them. -The...

At one point, the Facebook group was a sort of contingency plan, but it wasn't a very good one. A backup forum would make more sense. In principle, we could just migrate over to a new forum and all we'd lose would be the other features of the website... -Chat: I think this is defunct now...

I missed the downtime, although I do remember something similar happening before some years ago (for longer, I think). It'd be a real shame to lose the CPA, but I can understand that it'll probably happen eventually, as the whole thing is entirely dependent on Ed. There aren't very many Magic...
