Saurus was one of my favorite NPCs and I was thrilled when he got picked early and doubly when he actually rolled high and ate a minion group.<br/><br/>pdragon was the most conscientious player ever about sending in dice rolls and clearly marking what was what, but I told him I got to roll for Saurus because the visceral thrill of seeing that six come up was so worth it. hehe. :)<br/><br/>That being said I admit I should probably have limited his ability to not target the same player on multiple turns in a row, as I did with some of the other NPCs, and doubly so if he actually ate someone. :)<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=324835.msg15636029#msg15636029">Quote from: Geeklet on 24-10-2020, 05:33:21</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">You know, as far as keeping players feeling like they are relevant, I just want to point out one thing that I thought was awesome, that I don't know if everyone knows.<br/><br/>On the surface, it probably appeared Morticia wasn't doing to much. But for the past couple turns, I had secret NPC allies that were performing actions unknown to the public. And I thought this was a great idea, as not only does it keep people involved, but also allows different playstyles. Want to be the scheming, underhanded aspirant? you can do that!

Morticia got the raw end of the first event and not being in the alliance or the recipient of anyone leaving was definitely on a back foot there, so I'm glad the mechanic that kicked in did it's job! :D<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=324835.msg15636033#msg15636033">Quote from: c0i9z on 24-10-2020, 05:47:05</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Regarding relevancy, one thing that matters, certainly, is the number of districts. Even if going for the palace victory seems impossible, there's always the opportunity to control or, at least, fight for control of one of them. Even a big alliance can't be everywhere. For example, Freya was always a matter of concern for us even when she was alone due to the power she wielded in the Slums.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Freya's ability to stand up to that was truly astounding. I kept expecting her to get overwhelmed every turn. It was very interesting to me how Kieri, the closest thing I think the game had to a good-guy underdog type, ended up the face of a triple alliances against Freya, who was probably the most intimidating character in the game as the actual underdog.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=324835.msg15636045#msg15636045">Quote from: Rummy Tum Tum on 24-10-2020, 06:11:39</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">T.T<br/><br/>I really wanted to get rid of that lizard after that.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Poor party nerds. :(<br/><br/>There would have been options for that eventually. I just like letting people get annoyed by things and then giving them the option to do something about it later on.
