Pit Viper

Pit Viper

这卡的中文翻译特么的是错的

【在蝮蛇攻擊你並對你造成傷害後】

【After Pit Viper deals you damage from its attack】

按照英文来说，根本没有“攻击你”的描述……

所以用森哲夫帮队友吃伤害的话自己也是要中毒的

他奶奶的奸商翻译祸国殃民遗毒万年，MMP打了8年诡镇今天才他妈知道自己一直玩错了，靠

就不能找点靠谱的翻译吗，人都麻了，这样的错误到底还有多少啊？？

Ironically, even if the chinese translation didn't correctly translate the text, it DID respect the spirit of the rules. Even if you assign damage to an asset, you STILL get poisoned here. It's super counterintuitive and badly written in english as well. — HeroesOfTomorrow · 117

Hunting Horror

Hunting Horror

Okay, so I played with Rex and Jenny. Rex used Pathfinder to move for free and collected every clue available on the map quite swiftly. Jenny hung out in the Museum Halls spending most of her turns revealing Exhibit Halls. Hunting Horror showed up twice the entire game and was easily dispatched in two turns each time. Hardly any cards relating to the Hunting Horror were drawn, maybe two. I think we finished on Agenda 2a with three doom on it. Is this scenario just really swinging, because the Hunting Horror was boring. I mean, the concept is pretty cool. But he showed up twice and was very weak. I was playing on Easy, so maybe I should up the difficulty.

I played the scenario twice. Last year with one friend and back then when it was quite new with four investigator and a limited card pool (It might be up to Carcosa or TFA). I think it gets more dangerous the more players draw encounter cards. — Tharzax · 2

Polished Cane

Polished Cane

Good as an alternative to Fire Axe for chapter 1 Preston, in combination of course with Streetwise (3), to allow him to handle enemies outside of dark horse builds. Of course, the fact that it is polished and fancy fits the theme perfectly.

M1903 hammerless would be another alternative for Preston, but without a way to evade its ability is wasted.

Testing Sprint

Testing Sprint

I want to add one thing to this review and it is a "build a deck around it combo" so I give fair warning BUT.

Luke is more broken with this then we thought...Grotesque statue (2), Written in the stars, Alyssa Graham, and Enraptured, encyclopedia, add in double magnifying glasses (1) and Backpack (2)...

10exp, and a full auto clear of the map, as Luke would be testing 5 with enraptured + Alyssa and any hand slot makes him hit 7 assuming 4 shroud is the highest (almost always the case) if grotesque is out he literally cannot fail.

oh Luke...

added deck build map the area, eureka for tutor, practice makes perfect for tutor, astounding revelations to thin your deck, whitton greene for tutor, call in a favour for tutor, quantum flux for a second go at enraptured on top of deck if you end of with them in hand, and finally analysis for another option instead of enraptured and grotesque.

Seems like a big effort for an effect you can get by buying deciphered reality for 5 xp? — Tharzax · 2
Deciphered Reality would let you finish the process with just one test, but making multiple tests means you can benefit from the Written in the Stars combo better. Imagine doing that with Deduction(2)! — TheNameWasTaken · 3
The big thing is Testing sprint goes until there are NO clues left, deciphered reality is one per location. In multiplayer this means luke can get EVERY clue with 100%. The combo seems like a lot until you realize luke can just sit and draw 4 cards every round for three rounds and be half way through his deck. Round 4 steal every clue after his allies reveal everything. Round 5 do it again if a bunch of new locations appeared because once the cards are set up it works ad naseum. — Cazoodle · 595
@Cazoodle I think one of us is missing something. Testing Sprint is an event; you play it once and then you're done until you draw into it again. And you only get one investigation for each location - so in most circumstances you only get one clue for each location just like with Deciphered Reality. Except that one also gets you an extra clue from your own location. — TheNameWasTaken · 3

Map the Area

Map the Area

Is this OP for Luke?

Luke Robinson -> Dream-gate -> Double magnifying glass (0) -> Any + 1 book ally -> Any + 1 book accessory -> Analysis -> Testing Sprint

Zero EXP with the potential to absorb all clues in one action as the only reliable fail on standard would be 4 shroud locations (-4) token???

Just want to confirm that this would work with testing sprint if you 1st action used this in dream-gate then dropped testing sprint.

With Testing Sprint you are investigating multiple locations, so this card only affects Dream-Gate. — AlderSign · 477
@AlderSign is there a ruling that for investigations, "at location" refers to the location being investigated, rather than the location of the investigator? — TheNameWasTaken · 3
Ah, I see what you mean and realize I read the review wrong. Looks like Cazoodle is correct! — AlderSign · 477
