I think it is a really neat game. Personally, it reminds me of an episode of Scooby Doo, but instead of being comical its dark and macabre. It is soo much fun trying to kill off everyone else and try and survive the myriad nasties that inhabit the town. Just to kick off the new list of TWGI's; if you have played TOJH which is your favorite character? Personally, I'm partial to Troy Williams or as I like to call him, the big dumb marine. He's cool because he actually has a pretty good chance of beating the monsters. Which is good because he can beat up monsters for investigation points; especially, since in a very short time it is comical to see him try and investigate anything. Jenny is pretty neat to due to the possibility of avoiding damage. Let's hear it for cheerleaders!! :P Please let me know which is your favorite character. Jason T'Rage (8!

Her ability can be a literal life-saver. Troy is alright, although he really eats it when he runs into a spirit. However, I think the easiest character to win with is Hank. Randomly getting investigation points can make you win really fast.

Some are pretty out there and only a couple have been playtested, but I'd figured I get some custom card discussion brewing! :) The "Goin' Solo" Variation: This is a new Biz card. The musician with the highest HP decides to leave your band and go solo (this does not apply to the "Me" card). You create a new "band" for them which you play in addition to your normal band. (They keep any instrument and reputation. They also automatically take any producer and contract [but not signed gigs or hit singles] with them). However, since they went solo, they can only have additional band members during gigs (their rented back-up band). (We're also hammering out a variation on the variation where, under certain conditions, the solo musician can rejoin the original band for a "reunion tour" during a gig [maybe as a Monkey Wrench]). The "Rockumentary" Variation: This is another Biz card. Marty DiBergi (of Spinal Tap fame) makes a movie about your band, but you all end up looking like freaks. Flip all existing reputations in your band to the negative side. (This could also be the "Behind the Music" variation). Other possible Spinal Tap-inspired variations: a Biz card where any drummer in your band explodes [gets discarded], a Monkey Wrench that takes any guitarist out of the gig (because their wireless guitar rig picks up air traffic control), and Biz card that discards your contract due to cover art disputes with your label. (We're also trying to come up with some "Almost Famous" based ones as well). The "One Hit Wonder" Variation: This is yet another Biz card. Your band is a "one hit wonder" and must discard all hit singles (of the band owner's choice) except for one. The "Grammies" Variation: Once every x rounds (6-7?), you hold the Grammy Awards. Take the number of SPs you have in hit singles and add it to a 1d6 roll. The band with the highest number gets the Grammy (which is worth 1 SP). However, each single is only eligible for a Grammy once. During the next Grammy round, only singles played since the last Grammy ceremony can be counted. We've also considered a slightly more interesting version where there's only one Grammy trophy and whoever wins gets the award (and the SP). However, the award goes up for grabs again at the next ceremony. (If you lose the award, you lose the SP). (In this case, we'd probably have the awards every 4 or 5 rounds so it would have more of an impact toward the end of the game).

Basically, all the meat you can eat and games until the crack of dawn. At the 10 hours mark, a few rounds of "Give Me The Brain" put the group in the perfect state of mind for Battle of the Bands. No one in the group had ever played so I let them sift through the deck for a couple of minutes. The card text and artwork really hooked them and they all wanted to play. I even shuffled in Backstage Pass so we could get a full six-player game going. After a one round, everyone had a good feel for the game and then the gloves came off! I've never played a more cutthroat round of BotB and we were all aching from laughing so hard by the end. Needless to say, you have five new converts! :) Chris From salcamn@msn.com Sat Oct 25 23:28:39 2003 Return-Path: Delivered-To: twgi-general@thirdworldgames.com Received: by earth.thirdworldgames.com (Postfix, from userid 510) id 109D47FC8B; Sat, 25 Oct 2003 23:28:39 -0700 (PDT) Received: from hotmail.com (bay3-dav152.bay3.hotmail.com [65.54.169.182]) by earth.thirdworldgames.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0A9E67FC87 for ; Sat, 25 Oct 2003 23:28:38 -0700 (PDT) Received: from mail pickup service by hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC; Sat, 25 Oct 2003 23:20:03 -0700 Received: from 68.130.216.192 by bay3-dav152.bay3.hotmail.com with DAV; Sun, 26 Oct 2003 06:20:02 +0000 X-Originating-IP: [68.130.216.192] X-Originating-Email: [salcamn@msn.com] From: "SALVADOR CORRALES" To: Date: Sun, 26 Oct 2003 01:19:59 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: MSN 8.5 X-MimeOLE: Produced By MSN MimeOLE V8.50.0017.1202 Seal-Send-Time: Sun, 26 Oct 2003 01:19:59 -0500 Message-ID: X-OriginalArrivalTime: 26 Oct 2003 06:20:03.0187 (UTC) FILETIME=[3106F430:01C39B89] X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.60 (1.212-2003-09-23-exp) on earth.thirdworldgames.com X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, hits=0.9 required=5.0 tests=HTML_30_40,HTML_MESSAGE, MISSING_OUTLOOK_NAME autolearn=no version=2.60 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1 Subject: [twgi-general] [FS] A big fan X-BeenThere: twgi-general@thirdworldgames.com X-Mailman-Version: 2.1 Precedence: list List-Id: General Third World Games Mailing List List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 26 Oct 2003 06:28:39 -0000 Hey, I am a very big fan for Firestorm.

(San Francisco Bay Area) Jessie, Nav, and Craig showed up, and by their generous allowance, i was able to play as well. Nav even gently corrected me on a few of the rulings, since i hadn't played a lot of the tech gain cards in years. Craig built his deck in the half-hour before the tournament, and we got rolling by 10:15-- that must be some kind of record for a tournament i'm asked to judge. With only four of us, we settled into a round-robin format where everyone would get to play everyone else-- we came to play, right? Round 1 Nav (Muero Multiple Choices) vs. Eric (Muero Support) Jessie (Human Insurrection Support) vs. Craig (Human Explore/Fight) Jessie and Craig had a pretty lengthy game-- they were both in the double-digits in tech before it was all said and done. I didn't get a good look at what he was playing, but Craig was kind of surprised how Jessie got all uppity in Craig's star system. Craig got his Brain Trust in play, feeding Simon Christiansen to it, only to have Jessie drop a spy and blow it up the next turn. Jessie took the win by destroying Craig's homeworld. Nav and i had a pretty quick game. He gained tech quickly, but i was able to drop one (just one!) ship or Hero every turn, while drawing into most of my support cards. I think i had 3 Mining Facilities and my City online by the end of turn 4 or 5. We traded Mercenary Fighters early on, but my Primaag Sutraal was camped on the outside of his star system with a badly banged-up Mercenary Destroyer. I finally moved up my Orbital Space Station (Move: 1 at a time!), and Nav figured he had to strike in the typical turning point battle of the game: - Elite Fighter, Mercenary Fighter, Mercenary Destroyer, Destroyer vs - Elite Fighter, Mercenary Fighter, Destroyer, Orbital Space Station I think Nav misunderstood how Elite Fighter works (that won't happen again!), but he Massacred me at Triton, and banged on my ships. I used Shield React prevents and Hero deflects to keep Sutraal's ship up and running. This made Nav's attacks far less effective, and he kept forgetting about it as he made his attacks... but i know he knows how strong Sutraal is, since he runs the big Primaag himself. I finally pushed back with my Elite Fighter, wearing down his shields on his Fighters. We had some nasty exchanges, but i was able to save my ships with Lucky Break (the damage bonus, to force a shield activation) and a timely Glancing Blow against his D-14 missile. He did force Josidynn Prosidius out the airlock with that, but he left Primaag Sutraal to live and fight another day. My Orbital Space Station wiped out his last two ships with its puny guns, and it was pretty much over from there. Round 2: Jessie (Human Insurrection) vs. Eric (Muero Support) Nav (Muero Multiple Choices) vs. Craig (Human Explore/Fight) Jessie was playing lots of irritating Spies, including the redoubtable Andrew Masters, as well as Insurrection Support. I kept the heat up with an early Destroyer with Nebb Charr in his system, and he missed two or three activations of the Insurrection because he couldn't keep his Commands up. He destroyed two of my Mining Facilities, as well as inflicting piercing damage on my ships as they rolled out of my Homeworld. I had Spies of my own, though, and managed to blow up his Orbital Space Station as well as shank Rupert Einstein with Josidynn Prosidius after i'd made her an Assassin. In the end, his slowdown didn't show up fast enough, and despite some very clever "attack and retreat" tactics (burning up his Commands), he was unable to hold me off. I rolled into his Homeworld around Turn 8 with 6 or 7 ships to his Mercenary Destroyer. I didn't even bother trying to blow up Jupiter. I hate that planet. Always asking me to use up all my power... Nav won very quickly, getting up in Craig's grill with Destroyers and Mercenary Fighters, and not letting Craig explore very much at all. I think he even took three planets from Craig and revealed Military Vise for the maximum style points. Eric 2-0 Nav 1-1 Jessie 1-1 Craig 0-2 Tournament organizers don't win prizes, so we made Nav and Jessie's game the one for all the marbles. Round 3: Jessie (Human Insurrection) vs. Nav (Muero Multiple Choices) FINAL Eric (Muero Support) vs. Craig (Human Explore/Fight) I played a game against Craig. My Muero are sort of classically dumb-- they have good strategies against the Space Tarts (Dysori) and other Muero, but don't know quite how to deal with the subtleties of Human Tech gain decks. Is he packing three Secrets of the Ancients? Should i go after his homeworlds? Is he going to go Science Ship nutty? Lurk on the outside of his Star System (or worse yet, mine) with vaguely threatening Fighter Scouts and then drop a ton of Planets? Too many options! In the end, I just wasn't aggressive enough. I blew up Craig's planet at D, taking a chance that he couldn't drop two ships and finish my early Destroyer. But i chased down a few of his ships and blew them up, and then blew up his Ruins of Pellaponia (after he triple-explored with Kain Richards, an Arch Student, and a Fighter Scout for SIX Tech gain). This left my fleet scattered all over the galaxy. Craig Tech'd to 30 (i'd even cancelled his Discovered Technology with Only Fools Roll the Bones!), but i swooped in to destroy his Homeworld. I won the game, but Craig won the moral victory-- his deck would surely have pasted me if he'd built something just slightly more tuned. I don't remember which Advantage he used, but he was lamenting not playing Advanced Technology, which would have given him the win the turn before, or Exploration Efficiency, which might have as well. Nav and Jessie traded ships, and Jessie even got off the Tactical Bomb at Nav's 2-production planet, blowing it up. But Nav's steady flow of ships and Tech gain were too much for Jessie's bold spies, and Nav launched a gigantic attack directly into Jessie's Homeworld. Perhaps after Spycraft becomes a dead game, Jessie's Human will ride again. Nav is the KublaCon Master of the Firestorm, and the Muero win again. Maybe it's time to stop packing all that Space Tart hate... All the players were generously rewarded for their time and effort-- two booster boxes apiece, plus one more for the winner, Nav. Third World hooked them up with a pile of the beautiful Flying Tricycle Firestorm counters (Power/Resources, Damage, and commands) as well as demo decks featuring the promo-only Third World. Finally, the KublaCon staff dropped by and gave us some Firestorm starter boxes. I had a great time, and i hope Jessie, Craig, and Nav did, too. I'd love to see a decklist, Nav, and i'll see what i can do about getting it on Third World's website. Hopefully, all their new toys will go right into new decks, and we'll see them (and more) next year. I understand that Joe "King of the Space Tarts" went camping or something with his own space tart, so perhaps he'll turn bold next year and give Nav a run for his money. Erik "Queen of the Space Tarts" B. might need to make an appearance, or Darren, who craves Vegetable Head victory. Special thanks to KublaCon for being the best convention ever, Jan Malina for giving me a place to crash, and Mike Nickoloff and Vince Wong of Third World for hooking us up with great prize support and convention time. -- Eric From mjn-twg@thirdworldgames.com Fri Jun 11 08:51:15 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: twgi-general@thirdworldgames.com Received: by earth.thirdworldgames.com (Postfix, from userid 510) id 6F79A7FCBB; Fri, 11 Jun 2004 08:51:15 -0700 (PDT) Received: from tahoe.cinenet.net (tahoe1.cinenet.net [198.147.76.178]) by earth.thirdworldgames.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id CD38C7FCBA for ; Fri, 11 Jun 2004 08:51:06 -0700 (PDT) Received: from zhouse (pool.206.117.205.99.cinenet.net [206.117.205.99]) by tahoe.cinenet.net (8.12.10/8.12.10) with SMTP id i5BFp7p5015584 for ; Fri, 11 Jun 2004 08:51:08 -0700 (PDT) From: "Michael J.

Shares Outstanding: 34,000,000 Float: 4,000,000 Current Price: 0.082 Will it Continue Higher? Watch This One Monday as We Know Many of You Like Momentum. Breaking News!! May 25, 2005¡V Nomad International Inc. (NDIN) announced today it has entered into a letter of intent to provide an exclusive license to its VoIP products with LMB Technologies Inc. for the Caribbean market which includes Bermuda. The terms of the letter of intent include a 20% royalty payable to Nomad of the gross revenue generated by LMB Technologies Inc. of any sales and other revenue generated from the license. Additional consideration payable to Nomad includes 20% of the common stock of LMB Technologies Inc. which will seek a public listing of its common shares in the U.S market as soon as practicably possible. The acquisition of the license is subject to the parties entering into a definitive agreement and to both the due diligence and board approvals of LMB Technologies Inc. and Nomad International Inc. Pursuant to the proposed acquisition, on closing, LMB Technologies Inc. would pay 20% of its common stock to Nomad International Inc. as consideration payable for the license and would agree to pay 20% of the gross revenues generated from any activities related to the license exclusive to the Caribbean market. ¡§The Caribbean market is one in which our technology has the 0pp0rtunity to potentially gain market share through our ability to provide VoIP services over dial up networks. We are please with the distribution relationships of LMB Technologies Inc. and hope to see our products in the Caribbean market commercially in the short term.¡", stated Jan Olivier, CEO and Chairman of Nomad International Inc. May 18- Nomad International Inc. (NDIN) commented today on the recent announcement by the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) that they would regulate Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service only when it is provided and used as local telephone service. In its decision, the CRTC determined that in an effort to build sustainable competition in local telephone markets, the incumbent carriers will not be permitted to price their local VoIP services below cost to stifle competition. "The ruling is a very positive one for Nomad in our efforts to enter the Canadian market with our products via Internet Service Providers, cable companies and virtual operators. The ruling permits us to enter the market with a competitive framework," stated Jan Oliver, CEO of Nomad International Inc. The key to Nomad's entry into the VoIP market is the ability of its products to 0ffer services to both broadband and dial-up customers. Though broadband is gaining more and more acceptance and utilization worldwide, dial-up remains the primary source of internet connectivity. In the U.S. alone, there are over 200,000,000 users of the internet. Of the total users in the U.S., the total number of users of broadband is only approximately 40,000,000; (stats by the Yankee Gr0up) dial-up therefore represents approximately 80% of the entire internet connectivity market. The percentage of dial-up versus broadband users worldwide is even higher. Nomad's ability to 0ffer VoIP products to dial-up customers and service providers not only offers significant potential for market penetration, but also sets the Company apart from its competition in the marketplace by offering a unique, proprietary and easily adaptable product. About Nomad International Inc. Nomad International Inc. is a multi-national Internet Communications Company developing cost effective telecommunications through Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technologies. The Company's revolutionary VoIP product line called NOMAD SYSTEMS that has Dial-up, Broadband, DSL, Cable, Satellite and Wireless capabilities. The Company plans on targeting: 1) National fixed line II & III Tier carriers which are interested in effectively competing with the dominant carrier in their marketplace, 2) Large multinational corporations which need to have US or European presence by having, (for example), a United States number ringing in their offices in Guatemala or London -- offering business partners a more economical way to communicate, and 3) Immigrants in North America, a means of significantly lowering their communication expense with their relatives in their country of origin.
