Narn deck won't narn... and hello old friend

Yeah, no Narns in my Narn faction, just 5 Techno-mages and a Banker... so weird

A few more turns (3 or 4?) on the lunch game.  Predictably Londo the Gambler and G'kar the Techno-mage are going head to head.  Its kinda broke down into two games, Narn vs Centauri (the two veteran players) and Minbari vs Narn (learning player and veteran).  Unfortunately for the Human player (also learning) his cards just aren't coming up.

Londo: Got some of his heavy hitters in, Refa's up into the Inner Circle, and Emperor Turhan with his Imperial Telepaths are up and firing.  I tried to block his Hunter, Prey (which gives him an auto Intrigue 2 on all future conflicts), but stuff got real.  Galen and Genius Loci jumped in with both feet... Refa attacked them and Londo supported the conflict along with Turhan (thus all the damage tokens).  Arthur has been a big help to him getting cards.  With two cards that can generate intrigue conflicts as an action, this deck is always doing something every turn.

Delenn: Now with 11 power and 10 influence (benefited from a Narn Legacy Conflict), He's got a solid Inner Circle and good supporting cards, Vorlon influence is at 11 (I actually want the Shadow War, so I'm kinda helping subtly, much to Londo's dismay).

Sheridan:  Now an Extra Conflict John Sheridan (just need conflicts now), and with a captain and a won conflict successfully pushed through (at 11 influence), he's just sitting on every great late game, 12 cost, card you could want.  Hopefully the low cost quantity over quality cards that are everywhere in this deck start coming up soon.  He's got no more conflicts in his hand... just waiting on the right cards to come up!

G'Kar: Well what a weird set of 3/4 turns.  Played Faces in Stone on the first of the turns and was able to get Blaylock, Isabella (who got demoted last turn), and Genius Loci all in (and Genius Loci into the Inner Circle).  I pushed through two Well of Forevers (cheap, I know) and an Isabella's Quest to gain 2 more influence, along with another pair of conflicts, I was able to get up to 15 influence and spending 18.  I'll drop one planet next turn and then focus on guiding the Humans up to 15 influence too (its a learning game after all, and I'm in a spot to just sit back and build supporting cast and let the others fight it out).  G'Kar will just play power broker for now.  I did look at Londo's deck and discard Prime Minister Mollari (evil, I know), but what good G'Kar can pass on keeping Londo in his place?

Things learned:  When it happens, Legacy decks can get OP... I've got 5 Techno-mages in play (G'Kar is one now).  My Narn deck is too thick, I can't get any good non-Legacy cards in my hand (even with Isabella giving me extra draws)...  I need to make hard choices and cut it down to 70 cards (which I'm not good at doing).  Luckily the Legacy deck is keeping me in the game... I've also got two Portraits of the Past in my deck somewhere... at this rate I might use them both if they come up (lets me recycle my Crusade Pile... hello more Wells of Forever). Also, as said before, I really need to emphasize shuffling decks well to new players.

In other news... I'm still cataloging my 4k extra cards I just acquired (see a couple posts below), but I also got a little something for me.  I don't know how rare this is, but I'm thrilled to have it.

So, while thinking of this, here's a vid in memory of Andreas Katsulas

and this epic tribute too

Upcoming: going to try and get a veterans only game together this Saturday.  I'm going to try my 60-ish card Neroon-Ranger One military deck.  Sounds like a Centauri war deck and a Psi Corps deck will be waiting for me... maybe a Non-Aligned worlds deck and a Shadow deck too
