I was actually deciding between drive and dodge, but Drive just lost to knuckle by 2 which was worth the risk given the board position. I did actually expect the knuckle and was hoping that you'd talk yourself out of it.
I will spend my token.

I wasn't even thinking of Dodge for some reason, but I think Runeblade would have beaten that anyway.
Also, now I can't Neutralizer through your Knives, which was the main reason I used it instead of Annihilator. I guess I could still catch a Dodge or a Burst, but those are nowhere near as threatening.
Not doing this now.Never be sorry for your little time.

Yeah, the dodge was only for the Knuckle which was what I was thinking your better play was. I think Drive beat anything else (well, or clashed with Drive.)
No hurry with the last move. I hadn't actually noticed that you were using Neutralizer as your finisher (even though I typed or at least copied it,) so I'm going to take a look at the options you have and see if I really want to make that move I submitted myself.

Actually, you know what, I'll pulse at the end of the beat and get my dark force token back. You can move back 3 spots.

Hmm, actually I'm not sure that the timing let's me do that. The pulse from the Force Guage and the UA both similar phrases "at the end of each beat," and "at the end of a beat." The rules for the force gauge specify that this means after all other End of Beat actions apply, but it's not clear if the UA does the same. If the UA is meant just as an End of Beat effect I can't do this; if it acts like the Force Guage's Pulse then I should be able to choose the order and this move would be legal. Let me see if I can get clarification on that on BGG.

For some reason I don't want to make more than one decision at a time right now, and I want to know exactly what my next move is before deciding this one.
Current plan is Advance 2, Hand Cannon, Pull 1, which would make it oooJHoo. I'd take 1 damage, you'd take 2. I don't want to lock that in though.Never be sorry for your little time.

Sorry about that. Working on this now, though there's a chance I'll be interrupted. Now that I'm back to doing this though, I won't just stop again if that happens.

Yeah, I'll go with the move I had planned two months ago. I won't look at your next beat though yet in case you want to change it, since two months, and also to make sure that I have my summery correct because if I'm wrong about something it might change my move.

Yeah, I somehow missed that Rasping was +0~1. I was considering Dodging to bait out the Knives, but I think that's all I could have done, and like I said I was in a really bad position to start off of anyway. If I had another health or two I could have used Neutralizer, but in that case you would have done something different, so yeah I should probably have just taken Annihilator for the versatility.
Anyway, I have no clue why, but right now I just feel like playingSpoiler: In case you want to pick character before seeing my pick.
Also, how did the tournament go? I ended up being too mentally checked out while making a complete fool of myself in Mash's biggest sub-scene, and didn't end up following it.Never be sorry for your little time.

Yeah, that wasn't an easy place to fight out of. A new game sounds like a good plan!
I'll go ahead and play Oriana to see what she's like! If you have a gmail account and would like to we can try out the spreadsheet for the next game. It's a nice presentation, gets rid of the need for spoilers and automates a lot of what we do (though not all,) but it doesn't allow for chatting as easily in a game that's spread out over days as the forum does. Let me know what you'd prefer.
For the tournament, I won the first game, but lost the next two for the first round. I wasn't in the right head space and played the last one just terribly (I blame the election if anything.) Then for the second round getting a time to play with my opponent ended up being difficult enough that we hit the time limit and I opted to be the loss as I still wasn't feeling the game that much. This will be the first game since then (other than the spreadsheet game I'll start with Accountant shortly.)
In any case, glad to see you back! A nice game should feel good I think. I'll be fairly busy with guests and whatnot over the next week or two, but I should be able to get a beat in here and there.

I just made a gmail account, switched my MS account to it, and made it public. I don't know if the last part is necessary, but I think this doesn't have any personal information on it?
Anyway, I wouldn't know how to start a game like that though.Never be sorry for your little time.
