| 00:00 - 00:03 | As we hoped, Fantasy Flight recently refreshed their stock |
| 00:04 - 00:05 | So getting most adventure packs from them... |
| 00:05 - 00:07 | ...has gone smoothly. |
| 00:08 - 00:12 | Unfortunately a few of the packs sold out very quickly, but we think we may be able to find them... |
| 00:12 - 00:15 | ...either online or maybe at one of the nearby LGS's. |
| 00:17 - 00:19 | A missing AP or two isn't a big deal |
| 00:19 - 00:21 | just so long as we got the print on demand stuff. |
| 00:24 - 00:26 | My fuhrer... |
| 00:27 - 00:28 | The nightmare decks... |
| 00:31 - 00:33 | The nightmare decks were almost entirely out of stock. |
| 00:34 - 00:36 | It's likely that they'll never get reprinted. |
| 00:53 - 00:58 | If you're not a fan of elves, dwarves, and hobbits... get out. |
| 01:13 - 01:15 | Damnit I knew this would happen! |
| 01:15 - 01:17 | With Fantasy Flight this always happens! |
| 01:18 - 01:23 | Now I have to have cards shipped across the Atlantic and deal with Ebay weiners like terminator1121 to complete my collection. |
| 01:25 - 01:28 | I'll probably have to pay $400 for a damn Balrog playmat! |
| 01:29 - 01:31 | Good thing FFG treats inventory tracking seriously |
| 01:31 - 01:34 | not like toilet paper to wipe their asses with! |
| 01:34 - 01:37 | I had order confirmations from them two separate times for nightmare decks |
| 01:37 - 01:40 | only to have them unceremoniously cancelled. |
| 01:40 - 01:42 | My furher, if we just remember to check for restock three times a day |
| 01:42 - 01:46 | Maybe they should stop entering inventory numbers with their fucking buttcheeks! |
| 01:46 - 01:48 | My furher, we can also check Amazon and Google Shopping... |
| 01:48 - 01:52 | Because nobody has anything to do except type shit into a search bar all day! |
| 01:53 - 01:54 | I should be busy killing orcs! |
| 01:56 - 01:57 | Sauron's hordes should be fleeing before my |
| 01:57 - 02:00 | highly tuned tri-sphere decks! |
| 02:00 - 02:03 | I should be generating resources and dropping progress tokens! |
| 02:04 - 02:08 | Instead I'm busy calling stores in rural Idaho looking for Across the Ettenmoors. |
| 02:08 - 02:13 | I haven't even gotten past Heirs of Numenor because I'm too busy tracking this shit down. All they need to do |
| 02:14 - 02:16 | is release them as "Return To..." boxes. |
| 02:17 - 02:21 | But I guess they don't like money! I should just make proxies! |
| 02:27 - 02:29 | I don't want to print up a batch of cards. |
| 02:30 - 02:34 | I just want a complete set. Is that so much to ask? |
| 02:34 - 02:36 | Just one complete collection. |
| 02:41 - 02:42 | For fuck's sake. |
| 02:43 - 02:47 | It's not like I'm asking for all the alt-arts or promo merch. I just want the whole game. |
| 02:48 - 02:53 | Maybe it was too late for me to have started playing at all! |
| 02:54 - 02:56 | Oh but I'm sure FFG will keep printing Marvel Heroes. |
| 02:56 - 02:59 | Of course they'll keep printing a simplied version of the format! |
| 03:00 - 03:02 | Disney will be thrilled with the decision won't they?! |
| 03:04 - 03:07 | It's ok, the mechanics will get more complex over time. |
| 03:14 - 03:16 | I just wanted to spend more time away from my computer. |
| 03:19 - 03:23 | I could have picked up jogging - now that would have been a healthy choice. |
| 03:25 - 03:26 | That's clearly true. |
| 03:31 - 03:33 | I'm a huge Tolkien fan. |
| 03:40 - 03:46 | Is it too much to ask in the midst of COVID and all the other crap going over the last year |
| 03:46 - 03:49 | to be able to spend some time in Middle Earth? |
| 03:53 - 03:56 | Someone get out Khazad-dum. |
