Well, racist means carrying hatred, so if they don’t meant to be racist then they aren’t.
If anything, it makes you the racist one, because you are the one associating it with a race, then declaring that being associated with said race is a negative.
Well, this is a good way to either bring a thread to a screeching halt, or send it in a direction that we really do not need to see.
I’ve lived in an inner-city environment my whole life, and have heard the word used in that sense many times, by people of all races. I’ve never heard anybody take offense to it, but after thinking about it, I can certainly see how you might. This debate does not belong here. Can we cool off before a fight starts?
No fight intended nor wanted. I’m sure we’re all fine here.
Happy to cool off.
And loving the irony of a potential flame war being cooled down by someone with the handle flamethrower.
Yeah I need to get sleeves for my cards. Ra is bent slightly and some of the other cards have slight rips.
No I don’t read the entire thread, why do you ask?
Just to add, I use Mayday sleeves and they worked great, partly because they are really thin.
Yowza. Sorry about that… I had no idea my terminology would nearly up-end things.
Update: I just picked up some of the Mayday sleeves for the core set hero decks and they work like a charm! Those of you interested check out Mayday’s website for the Standard US Card Game sleeves and that should be the right size. 
Cool. I may pick some up using my GenCon money this August.
My core and Rook City cards are sleeved using Fantasy Flight sleeves, and holy hell I love those things. They’re thick and/but really nice. I have my playtest stuff in Ultra Pro sleeves of various colors to stand out, and… they just remind me how much nicer the FFG ones are, in my opinion. I even went nuts and bought all the sleeves needed for when Infernal Relics is released! I’m just that dedicated. Or insane. I forget which.
See, I thought about using Ultra Pro and color coding things, but I guess I want to see if the Mayday ones I’m using will fit better in the “upgrade” box that’ll show up with Infernal Relics.
I believe they said the Enhanced Edition box was designed to fit everything in the box while sleeved with Mayday Premium sleeves.
There was some concern that everything would fit, but just barely, when sleeved after Ambuscade and Unity are included.
The Mayday Premium sleeves are 90 microns thick. Dragonshield and FFG sleeves are 100 microns thick. The extra 10 microns / card of FFG or Dragonshield would add about 2 inches to the height if all of the cards were stacked, so I don’t think there is any way FFG or Dragonshield sleeved cards would all fit in the Enhanced box.
Mayday Premium may be the way to go for this game if you want heavier sleeves. The 10 micron loss compared to FFG will not seriously impair the ability to protect your cards, but everything (should) fit in the EE box.
Mayday Standard will certainly work fine and fit in the box. However, I have encountered two problems with Mayday Standard sleeves:
1.) Too thin - they do nothing at all to protect the sleeved card from bending or folding
2.) Albedo - Mayday Standard sleeves are so reflective that it is almost impossible to read the sleeved card at any angle other than straight-on. This can be a problem in games where you need to be able to read cards that are not directly in front of you.
Hopefully the Mayday Premium sleeves are more like the FFG/Dragonshield in their reflectivity…
This is how I get the game around
I will need a new carry case once Infernal Relics comes around.
Those individual deck boxes, where did they come from? They are exactly what i want for my set.
If I am not mistaken, those are all the extras that Spiff has created and posted on one of his many topics of stuff he has made. I would post the link but there have been a few too many of them.
Edit: Actually it is right here http://greaterthangames.info/forum/index.php/topic,345.0.html and it contains all the stuff he has done thus far, most of which are pretty neat.
D’oh! how did I miss those?
Cheers Ronway.
Woot! Pictures of my stuff being used in the wild. Very satisfying.
I’m ok with the Enhanced Edition box, but now I’m a bit worried. I’m getting an extra Legacy deck so I can play normal and Young Legacy together, and I don’t want to have just one deck to many to fit in the box.
I probably won’t be keeping the tokens, though, so I guess there’s a little extra room there.
Love the setup, Densetsu! I’m still lugging things around inside the RC box (sans insert).
