Re: Storage Solutions

I don't know if there's enough space to fit three vertically-oriented 800-count boxes side-by-side in those drawers, so was wondering what Theo was using. I cut my own strips from a cardboard shipping box. :P I add a few centimeters on both ends and make half-depth notches to slot the horizontal an...

Re: Old to the game and have some questions

I agree the rulebooks would allow a free minor item regardless of succeeding on the Burglary roll, but there is also a basis for it not being allowed if the roll failed:

If you fail the roll for Burglary, you cannot then play an item.

Re: Dragon's Hunger question

P.S. That CoE netrep makes a blatantly incorrect statement. The play of the Rain-drake must have resolved, otherwise there would be no attack for Dragon's Hunger to cancel. CoE reverts this: Now if I've gotten a yes there, let's say that I'm trundling along with a H.L. of 2 and an Assassin jumps out...

Re: Dragon's Hunger question

Both hazards resolve. Hopefully there is no confusion about the Dragon Creature resolving. If it hadn't resolved, you would not have been able to play Dragon's Hunger which must be played on an attack. The attack itself hasn't resolved by the time Dragon's Hunger resolves, but the play of the hazard...

Re: 2023-March Civilized Challenge Tournament

Tournament Points: This event will be a trial of the following Tournament Point system in place of the the Council of Lorien system. This system is roughly 1.5x TP of the CoL, and is designed to slightly elevate the importance of winning over the CoL MP gaps, as well as reduce Swiss pairing skill va...

More of the typical cardnum event rules follow. Overarching Rules: Communication – communication with the event officiator (me) must be via the MECCG Discord event announcement https://discord.com/channels/688058353519427660/1070592243699818497, or Discord private messaging if on game info or other ...

Games will be played on cardnum (or other mutually agreed upon method that supports adding site cards to de...

Re: CoE Elections for 2023-2025

The United Nations may not be "needed," and it may have issues, but that doesn't mean there isn't any benefit to having it. To me, the purpose of any MECCG Council is to willfully create a community, and CoE is meant to be about creating a community for all MECCG enthusiasts. I would like ...

Re: Comments and Suggestions Welcome...

Would it be possible to prevent /host and related commands from choosing cards not in play as the host (hand, discard, etc.)? This could help prevent accidental order reversal or misclicks.

Corpse-candle corruption

I was wondering about the timing of the corpse-candle corruption checks. From an earlier thread (underline mine): Corpse-candle states: " If this attack is not canceled, every character in the company makes a corruption check before defending characters are selected. " There is no conditio...

Re: Await the advent of allies and similar cards playability

There is nothing about a dash that indicates the preceding statement is a "a new at-will allowance granted to the player." There needs to be a WORD giving that meaning. The words matter because they need to overcome the rule that specifically states that the effects of a permanent event a...

Re: Eye of Sauron

"Alternatively" is not in the text of Eye of Sauron. Move post to cardnum subforum? I agree that Alternatively was not the right choice. @CDavis7M, errata is not needed in the sense of changing how the card works, but still useful for ease of player reference. A better option might be for ...

Re: Await the advent of allies and similar cards playability

Your response still seems predicated on not understanding more than one definition of the word "may," ignoring the linguistic evidence in the card text, ignoring the actual rulings given by the ICE netrep, ignoring how other cards worded similarly must work in the game to not be a total de...
