  1. Something similar to this happened to my ant-man pack...
  2. Oh well that's really nice of that person! I usually try to read all of the reddit threads and comment on phantom of truth related ones, but I didn't see that one. But to be honest I'm not that bummed, I have plenty of content to play and I'm getting more for Christmas. 11 and a half months and finally something good happened in 2020.
  3. Hmmm, then I'd say it was 3 because I've done all the other ones and I haven't seen anything. Also I feel like if you had found a shop then you would've told us by now.
  4. WHICH ONE??? I've done all of those except 3 and 7.
  5. Yeah hmm I wonder... I am sadly also in the missing a phantom of truth club but I'm just waiting for a reprint.
  6. You can, but you can't really entirely skip a scenario. You could randomly pick one of the resolutions from online, or you could watch your favorite YouTuber go through that scenario and take their results. You can also print out the scenario on paper off arkhamdb and do it that way if you have sleeves. I am assuming by part 3 you mean echoes of the past? That's not one of the super-rare ones, so you should be able to find it somewhere (I would go through a couples pages of search results, usually you can find a game store with it in stock).
  7. Yeah that makes sense. Also I think that the player-base has been growing pretty fast during the pandemic so that might be why things are getting sold out sooner.
  8. This is what bugs me about FFG, they make tiny print runs, knowing full well they are going to get sold out. So then they end up re-ordering products 2 weeks after the release, and they don't even have enough to fulfill preorders made on the announcement date most times. They need to realize that the products are going to sell so it's not like this every time! That said, if they can't print as many packs because of the pandemic then I get it, but I'm not sure that's the problem because it feels like they have been doing it even before. Maybe I'm misremembering though, or the pandemic has made it worse.
  9. Same, I was like well I could just get 1 starter pack, or I could buy a whole other cycle that I don't need yet just to get the free shipping on orders over $100...
  10. It only applies to player-card weaknesses (they will say events, assets or skills), treacheries and enemies are not added to your hand. You resolve treachery and enemy cards exactly like if you had drawn them out of the encounter deck, so resolving the revelation or spawning them at their spawn instructions (or engaged with you if there are no spawn instructions). So for the core set that rule is only relevant for Daisy's and Agnes's signature weakness if I'm not mistaken. Did this answer your question?
  11. I'm pretty sure that it's going to be reprinted, but it's a question of when. The problem is that FFG is really bad about these things so these hard-to-find packs are missing everywhere for a long time, and the pandemic has made it worse. I've heard some people say February, because that's when the starter decks are going to get reprinted, but I'm not sure. Also it's really just this pack in carcosa, so it's very frustrating for people like me who have the whole cycle except for it, and we basically can't use what we spent our money on until this one pack gets reprinted. But I'm not too angry as long as it gets reprinted eventually, really the biggest hassle is having to reload FFG 3 times a day (they should really set up in-stock notifications).
  12. Well if the twitter poll says so... I'm actually surprised that it got such a good rating, I know a lot of people love TFA but I have also heard a lot of people hate on the campaign and that scenario in specific (idk why though). The campaign seems to have a very polarizing effect on people, I haven't seen anyone say it was so-so, either they love it or hate it. It probably comes down to whether people play it more than just 1 time, a lot of people who didn't like it say that they quit after the first play through. Also, I think it helps to know in advance that it's super punishing and difficult because you aren't surprised when it happens. Thank y'all for your opinions/tips, after hearing (on Reddit) a lot of people say that it sucked it's good to hear that actually only a few people dislike it and it's actually a very good campaign. Before I was doubting whether I should have tried to find another cycle instead, but now I know that I made the right choice and I'm super excited to play.
  13. Yeah, judging from the fact that they made Agnes's also terrible weakness even worse, I suspect they will do that to Wendy's too. And the alternate sigs have the "Advanced" keyword so it wouldn't seem fitting that an "Advanced" version is worse than the normal one. Oh well, I hope the new Amulet will be good enough to make up for it.
  14. I bet it'll be Wendy because Roland already has a novella.
  15. I didn't read the spoilers because I do want to experience it blind, making story decisions how I think is most thematic for the characters rather than just trying to choose the best one. I feel like that is fun to do for exactly one playthrough, so after my first playthrough I am probably going to come back and read them. I want to get wrecked on my blind playthrough, but then try it again and see what it feels like making the best decisions. I feel like if I looked at those now then every playthrough I would just make those decisions because they are the best ones and I won't get to experience all of the narrative and the different story paths. And this would really just take out the decision making element, which imo is one of the best parts of the campaign.
  16. I'm also in it for the cards so I think I'll just wait. The novellas are pretty good though, I really enjoy learning about a character's backstory.
  17. We're also using Ursula and Finn bc I wanted to try the new investigators and apparently evasion is good in TFA.
  18. Oh ok, thanks! Yeah FFG has serious issues with that, I feel like every single time they print anything they don't print nearly enough.
  19. I just bought the 5 available novellas, but 2 of them (Blood of Baalshandor and Deep Gate) were out of stock pretty much everywhere. I was wondering if they get reprinted like lcg cycles or if once they're out of stock they're out of stock forever. Thanks for the help!
  20. Going down a level is a good idea, the theme sounds really cool and it's good to know that it's still fun (if a bit punishing). I'm sure that I'll have a great time, I have no problem being destroyed by Arkham.
  21. Yeah I'm getting TFA for Christmas, can't wait to play! What were your experiences with it? I've heard very mixed things, a lot of people say they hate it and a lot say they love it.
  22. Good for you, hope it works out! Lmk what ends up happening.
