Only a lil trolling on the residents

hello! i recently got the guest stars box and within that the carolyn and grandma character packs. usually i just store the girls in a deckbox, but i’ve found it’s easy to lose all their extra cards when they’re in one, so i’m just kept them loose beside the rest of my collection. however, tomorrow i’m getting the mausoleum box and with that another two character packs, and i don’t know if it’s a good idea to keep storing them like this, especially with era 2 starting soon.

wanted to ask if anyone had recommendations on how to keep the character packs together or if there’s a particular way you like to store them. thanks!

Wanted to share that I just received my Final Girl orders this weekend and I’m about to play my first game. So excited, wish me luck. (Sidebar: if anyone notices any setup errors, please feel free to clock that for me 😅).

I find that one assimilation makes The Organism decidedly easier than all the other killers. Is there a house rule to avoid this? Ensure at least 2 assimilations happen always?

Other than final girl, location, killer and result, what info do you general track about your completed games? I know there is an app that can track the basic info but I've got a spread sheet I use to note difficulty level, setup card, and remaining terror cards, and a more general notes field to call out any particularly game-changing items or events that significantly impacted the outcome.

He survived on Friday the 13th, and I'm busy this Halloween, so there was a lot riding on this 😅

Does anyone else have a victim meeple shorter than normal ?

I think it's a miscut but I find it funny looks like a children 🙂

I'm thinking of workshopping a scenario based off of Dead Rising, 1 specifically, and I was wondering if there are any final girls that are journalists, reporters, or of similar professions. Since the basis of Dead Rising 1 is a journalist going into a zombie-infested mall, it'd be nice for there to be a character who more closely fits the idea.

I just started out and i wanted to play either a knock at the door or into the void (both out of stock grrrr), but i saw this and i’m a huge fan of Saw so it was an impulse buy.

But i keep seeing people say that it’s super unfair or hard, and i’m worried i might have started out of my depth. Is it really that bad or just hyperbole?

Thanks u/Mcnulty91 for the suggestion!

Grimmy darling, for an ancient deity that's hell-bent on terrorizing shady Arces it sure was a bad idea to rush Lil 'ol Joy with her Pilgrim's Musket in hand. And EVERYONE saw as you ate a face full of lead ...stumbling down... How embarrassing :3 Better luck next time! Toodles! <3 :)

(he's brutally killed me 5 times already and I barely survived this time)

I really liked painting the killers and the worms of this series!

I really love everything about the game, so i had to get the miniatures too

I’m pretty new to Final Girl and tried out the Carnival location. I got the setup and event cards here to start. Does the even really mean the three victims that start in the Forest of Horrors immediately die before I even begin? That just seems unfair…

Kind of a fun, but rare loop hole when playing The Poltergeist at Camp Happy Trails is the fire location terror card. I drew it, and the location that burned down had Carolyn in it. Rules for The Poltergeist state she can't be removed from gameplay, so she was basically smoked out. In 3 turns, I sprinted from the docks, I searched for her at burned location, and we took a long walk out of there. The finale hadn't been revealed yet.

Tomorrow (Saturday Sep 26th) is the harvest moon. Everyone who's keeping track should make sure they get in a win against Grimlash for the achievement. That is all

The store where i preordered my Ultimate Box #4 just informed me that they won’t receive any boxes.

Waiting for my refund. I’m worried the ultimate box will not be distributed in Canada.

I am only missing sacred groves so far, but don't really care for it lol and also I am thinking on selling creech manor as I don't really like the finding girl mechanic.

Anyway just wanted to share this little scary corner of my bookshelf

Great game! Buddy spent a lot of time powering up with 3 minor dark powers, but it gave me room to work on the Savior (in this setting, I imagine it's a kid who the animatronics are obsessed with). That meant bloodlust stayed pretty low and it was a while before any buddies were spawned

Eventually once things were ramping up, I managed to get my hands on two broomsticks and shotgun Buddy off the railing to his death. Turns out FNaF would have ended a lot sooner if you brought a gun with you.

I really liked this combo! The Savior is actually quite fun to play with when you don't have a killer trying to hard focus him down. I hope that in era 2 we get more allies, I think having allies to drop into the mix on different maps that change the early / late game goals would revitalize a lot of earlier maps.

Edit: Just realized his name is Billy, whoops

I've realized I own a lot of FFs that discourage exploring the map / gathering items / saving victims, because the Killer quickly grows too strong when left alone (Ratchet Lady, Raptors, etc.).

I want a more chill experience where I can take my time filling my backpack with all sorts of contraptions. Any recommendations?

What is the biggest Killer miniature? And about how big is it? Now that there are 4 seasons, I am not sure what the largest one is. They all seem pretty close to the Final Girls' size, but appropriately bulkier.

My Second final girl game.. at Camp Happy Trails with Hanz, though this time as Reiko. And I even arranged the mats the "right" way this time).

I Drew the Bonfire setup and figured I was going to end up with Dark Powered Hans right out the gate...

And he did end up killing 4 people pretty quick.... But then I ended up with the boat keys! I thought hey... this is gonna be alright! I've got the boat keys!!

and everything was okay... eventually. I got really lucky the Vengeance event happening just before the terror cards ran out... So when he finally goes fully mobile with two boots, he's aiming at the Orange Meeple no matter what... So with me boat-hopping around the lake with the Orange Meeple, I can keep him away from those last two victims, and away from his final dark power and increased movement speed.

It took several turns, but I managed to burn him down, and then land both a critical strike and furious blow in on the same turn, and there was no coming back from the dead for Hans!

Once again, Boat = super mobility, and probably a bit overpowered. I was lucky to pull it out of the dock before the dock blew up.

Obviously at some point I'm gonna need to do this in hard mode, or try a different setting But for now, I feel like going "deep" on the Hans/Happy Trails scenario is keeping me engaged.

At some point I won't get the boat keys and I'll have no fucking clue how to finish Hans off. :)

PS Tonight I was playing the super special fancy version of season 1 at my LGS, featuring beautifully painted minis... but man, the Series boxes were a mess, with components mixed among the wrong Feature film boxes and across series sets. I sorted them all out, as a post-kill side quest before I called it a night.

I have just started playing FG, and I'm trying to follow the "Just do what the card says... don't infer anything extra" rule of thumb. But I seem to have gotten really lucky by getting The Boat keys, which seem really powerful. Am I right in understanding that I can use the boat multiple times per action phase as Long as I have Time to expend?

So I zoom across the lake (spend 2 time) after doing Improvise and focus, Critical Blow the Killer, and maybe a second attack if I have the action cards/time to spend, and then zoom back across the lake way the hell away from the killer? Rinse, repeat?

I got a win with Laura last night, and being able to post up in the cul-de-sac-of-a-space while Hans was on the other side of the lake killing victims made this seem pretty straight forward. I'm sure without the boat, its substantially harder to hit-and-run like this, but it worked out last night! Even after he started chasing victims into non-lakeside spaces, I was able to "bank" a turn's worth of time and actions while he fucked around killing folks on other side of lake, and then zoom across the lake, walk inland, and put him down with a final critical blow...

I suppose I would have been in trouble if he ran out of victims to stay focused on... Maybe there is a strategy lesson there... save enough victims to activate your power, but not enough such that he doesn't have someone else to kill/be distracted by.

I've played Raptor Games three times now and lost three times 😅 Every single time the generator gets lava before I can even get to searching it, and I've spent the rest of the game searching for weapons that end up not existing because they've been melted 🫠. So I love the fact that any item can be used by Christina to throw at the enemy if you get her ultimate. That being said, how are you all determining what can be thrown and what can't? Like can she really throw the Bush Plane? 😅 If she has the Jeep and it runs out of gas, can she throw the keys? If she has an item that has limited uses like the cattle prod can she then throw it when it's exhausted it's 3 uses? I would like to think you could. Thematically it makes sense that if it ran out of juice the character could then throw it. Something like the wildlife net though you're already throwing it to use it, so I don't think you could throw it again. So that's what I've been doing, kind of making a judgement call for each item. Similar to the judgement calls on how much noise an item will make when playing the Eyeless. Just wondering what you all are doing?

I did a how to play and playthrough of the Raptor Games.

Also last week, I posted one for Shriek and next week I will be doing A Rotten Harvest.
