The issues with acquiring Horse Devils these days... · 10:58pm Jun 2nd, 2015
Just look at that smug bastard. This thing has evaded capture four times now....four!
As some of you may be aware, I play D+D, a bastardized version, but D+D all the same. What most of you aren't aware of, is that I am a avid miniature collector, so long as I or the Game Master can use those mini's in our games. Over the course of multiple years I have spent thousands into this collection, easily acquiring from ebay or other places the mini's I wanted.
Until this son of a bitch showed up.
He's a horse devil, I'm a MLP enthusiast, what's not to like? So I did what I normally do first, check to see if I like most of the set of mini's he's attached to (I did) and buy a brick of them. (A brick being packs of mini's from that set totaling about 32 of the minis, they are random, so there's some thrill of opening them if you are into this kinda thing).
1. I bought two bricks on e-bay, there were problems in it never arriving, I got my refund.
2. I bought a brick on e-bay, there were problems in it never arriving, I got my refund.
3. I bought a brick from a on-line store that had nothing to do with e-bay, it arrived! However, he was not amongst the packs I received. Every single OTHER one I wanted in the set randomly came up, but him.
4. I bought him specifically, along with a few other mini's to fill out the order. The package arrived. Every mini I ordered was in there, but HIM! The seller does not know what happened, he doesn't have the mini in his store anymore either and is issuing a refund for him. The fucker escaped the box somehow and is off doing Celestia knows what!
So yeah, you win for now, pony devil! But mark my words, when my next paycheck comes in, this game will end! I'll order two of you, from different people! One of them has to slip up eventually, right!?
....Right.....?
I totaly relate has a roleplayer entusiasth. Dnd mini had that kind of effect.
That said, when will we get a sequel for hopes and follies?
Oh my, I had the same problem with a certain dragon. I wanted all the Chromatic and Metalic ones of the classic D&D dragons. But the rarest the silver one. I never seem to get her. Eventually a friend of mine got lucky and got two of them and he just gave the silver dragon to me to make my collection complete. But yeah wish you good of luck getting that Devil Horse.
3118713 Hmmm...I think this current story has another 4-5 chapters. After that, I'll be working on alterations and some additional scenes for hopes and follies to try to alleviate some of the problems people had with it, and to make it work a little better with the sequel. Then, well, I start the sequel.
3118769 heh, thanks, and yeah, the dragons are always an issue for me, mostly at the fact that I have a ton of dragon mini's now....but I still have the urge to collect the new ones...despite knowing I will never need them for our game. Cursed dragons and my affinity in collecting them.
Oh hey, the Jersey Devil. I remember having a Monster in my Pocket of him back in the day (now those were tricky to collect all the ones you wanted from).
I don't think he's a standard D&D creature, so that must be Pathfinder.
