Countermay

where several threads converge in the tapestry of worlds

a world of settlers both by choice and accident

a world of conflict between civilizations

young and ancient, noble and cruel

living and, otherwise

a world unresolved with many vying to shape its fate

only one thing is certain for Countermay

its future will not be determined here

or... here, for that matter

at last

show them in

seven years of riddles and traps

seven years of waiting for you to make a mistake

and now we have you

the shadow

the shadow

the shadow

you've ruined my carpet

so we have

where is the girl, fiend

straight to it then, no foreplay?

you will release the princess at once! and what, in our long relationship

suggests I would do this

there's but one way this can end

with your death, and us departing with our prize

for women are prizes to be won, yes?

you simple surface dwellers

the princess was never my objective, on no

merely a means to an end

you see, I have discovered a great secret about our world

a truth that defies all...

don't you dare...

it might be work

are you going to get that?

let it go to voice mail

you were saying

I was

you simple surface dwellers, the princess was never my objective, no

I have discovered a secret about our world a truth that defies all of...

I'm surprised you even get reception down here

If you answer that I will punch you forever

it's work, I've gotta...

Hello

No, no now's a great time

boss, uh.. some guy has a question about renting a room

that's on the rate sheet

right, he'd like to know how much it costs

oh! yea that would be on the rate sheet

and if we're going to take a break

I need to feed the meter I uh... I actually have to get going

you've got to be kidding seriously?

sorry, we have an early loading in the morning

and we still haven't cleared the bay

you're killing me guys, you're killing me

and that's really what I should be doing

we've pissed off a pretty big customer

yeah? who?

to be continued

so... same time next week?

I'm good

Ah yeah, I'm not this isn't going away any time soon

I'll be in tech and I've been drafted into helping with tech

Grumble thank you sweetie

grumble I say

oh freakin come on!

this keeps happening!

are we really gonna miss another session?

we're down 60% of the party

so what do you suggest?

does game night not mean anything to anyone anymore?

if I wanted to play once every two months I'd be Lodge's sex life

hey!

why didn't you hey?

hey!

relax, sometimes life gets in the way

yes I'm still here yes you're still stupid

it's not like it's gonna be a year till we game again

A year later

five more minutes and we kill him

firm but fair you shut up!

I'm the antagonist, I can't antagonize?

so... china talking to us again

seriously, where the hell is he?

what is that noise?

my minions... minioning now shut up

what the sh*t crapped all these dorks in my store?

we're double booked

sorry I can't game

I guess we're not gaming

the streak continues

I can grab us a table at the AFK

we can still have waffles I've earned waffles, waffles of shame

that would be lovely

I warned you

you sell card games and they'll come

those mouth breathing card floppers in ones and twos at first

and then more would follow and now, they've nested!

and taken over my precious table space

is this what you wanted, Leo?

a gaggle of shambling fail elementals clawing the air?

I do not get your nerd rage on this

you love breaking games

why don't you just stick around see what happens

oh! might I? might I please?

perchance to spend hundreds of dollars on a non

interactive game with no underlying narrative?

sqwee! hold me back! this is sarcasm by the way

this game has absolutely zero...

(oh my god!)

You, beard face, you the T.O.?

hey, other beard face boom! card me

oh our first Holden player tonight

yeah I miss switch, I used to run something very similar with the Tuatha

before the legacy broke us

sorry man yeah I quit the game after that

kinda stopped being fun you know?

...hey what's she doing out of the kitchen? hey, take care of Dundereal for us?

oh would you look at that we're actually just past the sign in phase

an entry fee is 10 bucks but for you

I'll give you 30 if I meet her in the first round

I'll take that 30 and the +3 beads of protection

do I look like a sheep? cuz I'm getting fleeced

you still need a deck to play

ah whatever I'll take the grand mighty empire of... green one

you don't just grab a faction at random

your choice of empire is the most important decision that you shall ever make

they each have their own unique histories, and tactics and varying victory conditions

take the Tuatha green one

we are a people of mighty power green one!

we were the first to uphold the... green one

thanks

citizens of Countermay

one generation ago

Simm Buxtehude and Tuatha Dundereal

led an alliance against the god king Shad Hujem

and his undead allies

they toppled the dark one from his god head seat

and sealed his throne under a mountain of stone

but

hey, Natalie right?

I know, hard guess the only girl here

that is how I wanna be remembered

I'm Cas and you have already turned tonight's fortune completely around

I have a tazer

the sunken pyramid of Ixhasa

rises from the deep

and from it issues forth the dread army

with a single goal in mind

to return Ulix the eternal emperor to the god head seat

and restore their empire

will Ixhasa be victorious?

or will the mortal men stand together

and claim the throne for themselves

we shall have the answers to all this and more

when we cry havoc!

HAVOC! cry havoc!

HAVOC and let slip the dogs of war!

well, that was pointless

where were we?
