Can't wait for the official Formula D app. About a dozen patches later and Racer Feud is still broken. They blew it.
Me too! Actually quite excited about this.
Weird, that never happened for me. Most annoying this is that I have a Badge on the app icon that won't go away.

Carcassonne's quick play isn't working for me. Down for anyone else?
I started a new game with whoever I'm playing next in the tourney this morning btw.

Its hiddn on the sol forge site in the lore section. I picked the techies and the nomads.Saw that e-mail too... now if only I knew which ones the factions were!
I picked... the earthies and the techies.
Wait, what? When was this announced?
Shew... Slacker defeats mercviper in a match I thought was going to end 20/20. Vegas is a weird team to play with.
NS Hex round 10 game AX: Slacker 17 (vegas) vs MercViper 15 (dark blue).
That mind control ability is sooooo annoying
I made plenty of mistakes like thinking I could shoot your mines or trying to cause a battle in the last round. ggs!Yeah that's pretty powerful. Of course the trade off is that Vegas has about 2 offensive units.That mind control ability is sooooo annoying
Ggs indeed. Btw just declined a carc invite by accident. Sorry! Invite again if you want.
NS Hex Round 9 game AS: bonesquad DESTROYS Slacker 15 to 14. Dammit.
He was purple and I was "Smart." GG!
Destroyed, huh. I'd hate to see if I had won by 2 points
And the "purple" army is the Steel Police. Respect their authorita!Mike Works

Buy it people! I will set up a LC tourney when the Carc one is done. 3 games total score type tourney like the last one.
Hello friends !
First post in this wonderful thread. I felt like playing some ios boardgames for some times now, I don't know what I waited for to post here. Surely intimidated by what I imagine to be the level here :-S
FYI I'm very good at losing. I don't have preferences, I can lose at a great many games... The gentle breeze of success in your hair, you will love me for this !

For those of you who play Lost Cities against the AI, I'm curious as to how you would rank them in difficulty? They're meant to go from easiest -> hardest, but I've found that's definitely not the case, at least for my playing style.
So what about you? How would you rank them?

Post your GC son! And the games you own! And then watch your time disappear in trash talk and strategy!

The highish final score disguised the fact that it was very scrappy for the most part with unfinished roads and cloisters all over the place (mainly blocking me - boo Mike).
Farms were going to be shared, and I had 16 points in cloisters coming in.
Then Mike got to complete a few decent cities and 10 point (or thereabouts) road in the end game which swung the game in his favour.
A shared mega-city got completed near the end which boosted the scores but it was looking like a very low scoring encounter.
Good luck next time.

I have done the best vs Von Krusenstern and the worst vs Dr Jonze.

Yeah, for me it goes from easiest to hardest:
(the easiest AI, forget her name)
Laura De Groft
Von Krusenstern
Dr Jonze
Dr Jonze is such fucking bullshit - he builds up multipliers that he should have no fucking way of knowing would pay out, and more than half the time he hits the 8+ card quota to get the 20 point bonus. I can't count how many times I've lost a game that no rational person could have won with him. Fucking hate the prick.
Haha, this! He's a complete bastard.
I like to troll him though and will take up to a -7 of the same color he's multiplying. It usually helps prevent him from getting the 8-card bonus and also a lot of times makes him negative. But still, he's probably the luckiest of the AIs.
Solforge donors just got their update, and it's pretty huge. The factions are getting fleshed out, strategy is becoming more important as more and more content is packed in.
We're training like Rocky in the mountains for
Well, the lowest difficulty is definitely dumb. They'll enter a lane late in the game when it's mathematically impossible to end up with a positive score, haha.
Honestly I think they're handling this great given the circumstances. Letting you move all your purchases to the new game? It could've been way scummier.

Plus, hopefully with cross platform play there will be a wealth of new players.

Carc: I sent Slacker a friend request a day or so ago, haven't heard back from him yet.
Bu, bu, but, I will have you know mister than I am a well educated chap and that my GC (Li Kao) was entered into the community list within minutes when I posted !
For the list of games, I listed it too, but it's a more delicate topic. Because for starter, with the general cheapness of ios games (even if boardgames tends to be more on the pricey side, relatively speaking) if some people want to play this or that I can totally consider a purchase.
And secondly I should insist on my low level, I don't have a long boardgaming history, and to my shame, last I tried I still found Carcassonne score system more convoluted than many games entire ruleset. I will gladly perfect myself but I wouldn't like a more advanced player to feel let down.

Weird, Slacker is usually the exact opposite of his name. haha. hes already played 7 of his NH games, haha.
Sorry missed the notification somehow. LETZ DO THIS.
Edit: I wonder if you have the wrong Slacker. I don't have an invite. Sending one your way.
Think that was me.

Bah! I read the last post and suddenly I had Slacker on the brain. I corrected my post.

The person listed on top in the bracket (home team) invites. 5 home games and 5 away games. So everyone has an equal number of chances to pick which army they want first.

Awe man! My match vs Kennah disappeared! Lack of turn advancement I guess, I hope this one vs mercviper doesn't go away too.
