    Some thoughts after YEARS without a castle theme

    I love 10305 but it's hard to justify a $400 set.

    Mountan Fortress disappointed

    I was a kid of the late 80's and into all things Lego Castle. I adored 6080 and 6085. 6081 King's Mountain Fortress did more to usher me into my dark ages than any other set. I felt the raised baseplate and relative lack of bricks made it feel like I got cheated out of a lot of Lego that should've been in a set of that stature. I never had an issue with the chain mail... that struck me simply as more generic soldiers I could use however I wanted and a logical way to arm the troops. I don't recall my reaction the red and blue flags. I doubt I really noticed it much. Looking back, it does seem odd that they had the same colors and the Black Knights.

    6081 was one of the sets that ushered in my dark ages... if it had been more like this, that might not have happened. Lovely build.

  12. We all have to play anonymously as Hinckley?
  13. Why would the neutral have to declare it? A win condition should just happen. Neutral survivor should win with either team when they meet their win condition, and those team's win condition should be independent of the survivor. Otherwise, the survivor is not really neutral because he impacts another team's win condition. The fact that Hinck worked hard to side with town should not matter. I can see it being unfair to town, but Hinck wins either way, so I hardly see why it's unfair to him. Very much this. The fact that Hinck was making no effort to help the scum seemed like reason to not trust him. Never trust a neutralâ„¢.
  14. Town targeted 3 scum on night 1. Wow! I really didn't have the time I needed to commit to this game. Things just got busy pretty fast and then I was only able to post a few times a game day. My scum team even thought I was going to be AWOL at first, so apologies all around for that. Looking at the town roles... wow, I feel like that's a hugely stacked town and we still managed to get to Day 9. I give most of the credit for that to Andrew/Mostlytechnic. I thought he was super scummy and had heat on him so early that it was astounding how he managed to turn that all around. My reaction to his Vanillaijzer claim was genuine... I was like, seriously? But it worked. I have to disagree with some of Bob's suggestions about our kills near the end of the game. Killing Aiden over Emmett was important because Aiden had outed Trenton and we needed a town lynch. There was no way that Aiden was going to get votes or go against Vincent, who was clearly hunting scum. If I had killed Emmett instead of Fred, there's no was no chance that Vincent could be convinced Fred was scum. So my only play would have been to admit being scum... that seemed less interesting. Leaving everyone alive would've also just gotten me lynched FWIW, I didn't know I would be able to block and kill until after Day 8 ended. I think if we had killed Robin on Night 5 instead of trying for Emmett, we'd have been in better shape. That was the night that things really started to turn to the town's favor. Have I ever mentioned how much I hate living past Day 3/4? I will say that I was expecting that we would not have to eliminate a neutral to win. Since 3:3:1 wasn't parity, I did also wonder if 1:1:1 would be considered parity. It seems counter intuitive to the concept of the neutral. Why would we have to eliminate the neutral to win, but the town wouldn't?
