I read the manual and then I search the internet for any rule unclarity to se if there is an answer (errata, FAQ, community consensus). Almost never watch videos, don’t learn from them as well as I do from reading. Usually read the rules if I’m going to introduce someone new to the game even if someone previously explained it live. Have had to many cases of someone teaching the rules wrong, to blindly trust someone (except like one other person I know who is usually correct about everything)

Basically you just use the cardbacks to make them indistinguishable from a normal card then put a note in if using sleeves (that way they are reusable as other cards) or write on them if not (but then they are obviously not reusable as other cards). You can find descriptions for all the cards released on arkhamdb.com and you can set the language to German. I have done so myself to be able to include a few cards from circle undone which came at a time when I did not have time to play the game and I have been waiting for the re-release of.

Obviously not as nice as having the real cards and unless you are using sleeves you can’t do it for every card, but a cheap way to use that one card you really want to have in your deck without buying a whole expansion for it.

The new campaign/investigator sets would be the cheapest. Some scenarios are really hard to find even in English. On a budget i would recommend the investigator set for dunwich as it really fleshes out a lot of the classes. Together with the card from the old carcosa deluxe it should allow for some decent deckbuilding. I would also suggest using the playercards from the Dunwich deluxe box as proxies for cards you really want to use in your deck from later sets. That way you have playercards for a long time while you get the new complete campaign in release order.

If you want some more playercards after that the starting investigators are quite good value.

This, basically Arch but quick to install with all the most important things installed and ready without being bloated.

Used to distrohopp a lot but now i have used EndeavourOS for a year and it’s perfect for me. Basically Arch but a little more stable and faster to install

Hive is the perfect outside game. My number one game to play on the beach or directly on the grass in a park as the whole game is made out of heavy plastic.

Yeah, used to lurk on reddit but will definitely post more here! using this post to test out how commenting works here :)
