REVIEW: Myth
So. Myth. I had been looking forward to it for a long time. It was originally set to take place in July, but due to the war in Israel, had been pushed off to the next month. Not much of an issue.
I went on the second day, since that was the day the games I wanted to play were taking place (also because I needed to save my money. Myth was quite expensive). And what better way to start it off then by getting off the wrong stop? I had to walk for an hour through Tel Aviv in the hot sun, passing through numerous venues until I reached the place.
I bought a DOTA 2 poster, and found this board game called Arkham Horror that I really, really wanted. For a long while. But it cost a lot, and I needed to save money. Maybe another time.
I also found Phantom Breaker again! But I only managed two matches. The guy left, and I had no one else to play with.
Anyways, my game. The game system was Pathfinder, and we were playing a Pathfinder Society adventure, which basically lets you play with your character anywhere there are Pathfinder Society games. It was supposed to start at 2, but we had to wait a bit for our other players. I was a fighter, and one of two who brought their own characters in. The others were a cleric, a rogue, a wizard, and a ranger (the other one with a handmade character). The game was about us finding some sort of crystal that let you view memories poured into it or something like that; it was a little hard to hear over the din in the convention hall. It was set to be split over 3 adventure sessions, but we only ended up playing two. Luckily, no one ended up dying throughout our adventure, though it came close a few times. Some memorable events:
-Everyone except for the ranger getting diseased by plague zombies
-I got two crits on my first two attacks, and almost got a third later on
-The final boss of the second session, a ghost king, missed on every single attack
During the break in between sessions, I me a friend of mine who got me into going to gaming conventions. It was quite nice to catch up with him for a bit. And during the second session, there were two sword fights in the middle of the convention hall by guys in armor. I didn’t take pictures though, too busy were we in the game. Which happened to be quite an enjoyable experience, thanks to our DM. We ended up finishing around 10 or something like that, at which point I searched for something to buy with my leftover coins. It was quite empty; most people had already left by then.
