Yeah we were getting apocalypse fatigue too. Now it’s just your average tiger-led competitive games. Much less dangerous.

Personally, I’d like to see a media war. Newspaper honchos taking sides while attempt to swirl public opinion, and results in something permanent or significant. Those who are yet to own a newspaper can join the event as photographers or reporters.

Regarding the new dream, I assume that past the initial card, Nightmares aren’t needed anymore?

Much less dangerous, not less deadly I guess.
Didn’t we have something along those lines with the various elections? It got uncomfortable fairly quickly and participation dropped off as a result. Not sure if that was why they were dropped, but it’s conceivable.
You’re not the only one who has avoided that particular aspect. As others have said, it is not necessary to acquire the Bringer of Death quality. Or even to die – there is one ES that is set on the River, and some people opted not to play it because dying was the first step.
Let me just add that FB is really good at taking note of such things and will most probably avoid it becoming an issue at Estival.
As a related case in point, I remember that some players were uncomfortable with the storyline at the Palace that involved having affairs with two NPCs there. FB altered the drift of the story to enable people to play it while sticking to their principles (harrumph).
So don’t give up hope!

Still needed! It took me 120+ cards with Woe to finally get it!
Keep flipping, mate!
Good thing my Worm gave me some Cider, that means I still get Nightmares.
Thanks!
You can use it for " Play a move you learned from the Boatman" when playing chess on the chessboard in parabola. It’s a pretty good move in the midgame. It features in a hinterland scrip making grind.

Past the initial card I don’t think there is anything more. I myself have been assiduously flipping cards in London for the past 2 days and I have only gotten the initial card. The wiki doesn’t mention anything more either.

See, the thing with that kind of new thing is that it could be a case of overall bad luck.

On top of Estival starting on the 1st of August, we’ll also have a special Fallen London announcement later in the day which is pretty exciting.

So… chapter 2 of Firmament was released 20 days before this announcement, but there’s an interesting echo during an activity that this story unlocks: Fallen London. The name of the action is in the square brackets if anyone is interested.
Sneaky, FBG, sneaky and lovely!!!

I got it! You’ll tell us something about the game with wisents!
2 and a half years have passed so you may have something!

There’s no b____y way it has been 2 1/2 years since the wisent newsletter was sent out. I refuse to believe that time actually passes that quickly.

I bet the special announcement is a Fallen London [insert favourite streaming service] adaptation.
Also, everyone keep an eye open for a potential increase of a Scar Under Skin.

oh…not in favor of that, personally. i’ve seen what they did with some of my fave franchises and would hate to see it happen to FL.

Ah, well. The Bazaar has been benevolent and has supplied me with an urchin to buy season passes from. I suppose I will be heading to the Games, then!
