Summary

We're back on that old grind. We've done "Super Guides" as our way of revisiting base game factions post-PoK, but up until this point it has also been a mark of a faction that received new components via a Codex. But from here on out, it's all faction untouched since the introduction of PoK. That doesn't mean there's nothing to say, of course! And one of the bigger factions to tackle when it comes to strange exceptions to rules and weird ways to get lost is the Nekro Virus. You could compare this faction to an old taped together hunk of junk if it wasn't so good at punching you in the face and winning games. Let's break down why (and just ignore those tournament statistics, okay?) Music provided by Ben Prunty.

0:54.6	Martins and as part of that because async has become a more dominant part of my life I have
0:59.6	long avoided more than one game at a time but there have been two instances recently where I've
1:04.5	sort of just accidentally forced myself into having two games running and it is hard and I don't
1:09.8	like it it's a difficult thing to do.
1:12.2	But I've decided to just go for broke and add a third onto my docket so that I have multiple
1:18.9	ghosts games going at once. But I'm very afraid of the prospect of piloting the same faction
1:26.4	in two games at the same time.
1:29.7	And I'm curious if you think that would go well for me.
1:33.8	It definitely wouldn't.
1:35.0	It's not going to go well for you.
1:37.3	It's going to go badly.
1:39.4	I'm kind of not in favor of you playing async at all because of your memory issues.
1:45.2	Oh, it's bad, yeah.
1:46.3	Yeah, you have bad memory.
1:48.0	I literally, I just finished the game where I botched the entire Winsleigh carousel
1:53.1	because about a week went by and I forgot that, uh, I forgot that Miltie had diplomacy
