Temptation of Arms and Improvised Dinosaur


Pathfinder Adventure Card Game General Discussion


5 people marked this as a favorite.

When playing last night, I encountered the "Temptation of Arms barrier. One of the three weapons drawn was the Improvised Dinosaur.

Our story for this is:
A fiendish merchant rides up on a Tyrannosaur. He hops off and we notice it has a weapon rack around its neck holding a powerful Sunsword and and a Planar Crossbow.
The merchant says, "Choose one to complete the bargain."
Seoni points and states, "I choose the dinosaur."
The merchant curses us and disappears.

So awesome. I love it when people come up with roleplaying explanations for ridiculous things that happen in this game. :-D


It (sadly) doesn't involve dinosaurs, but I had a wonderful moment last game when Seoni asked Arueshalae to borrow her Talisman of True Faith. After receiving it, Seoni promptly revealed a blessing of Deskari to give the Talisman the corrupted trait, turning it into another uber-powerful card capable of mirroring anything in the blessing deck, much to the abject horror of the now wailing Arueshalae.

Moral of the story: Never give your holy artifacts to someone who identifies as a 'Corruptor.'


Hum... our Lini managed to somehow "steal" Donohan from Alain and refused to give it back since she argued Alain was putting the poor horse at risk by always charging on top of him as the first exploration of each turn.

Ridiculously not good for the game tactics but totally fun during the whole scenario. BTW she was very good at keeping the horse alive.

Hahaha that's so awesome! I could imagine her using one of the goblin promo cards to pull that off. Isn't there one that lets you take a card from an ally's discard pile?

I love little story related decisions like that, even if they don't help mechanically. Obviously not every single game, but as random events it's awesome.
