do you have to seal a gate at the same time u close it?? or, in case you don't have enough clues, you can close it, wait for an ally to bring you clues, and then seal it??

thanks for the videos, really helpful!

[Grudunza]

@Kieik You may just close a gate. But you can't have someone else "bring you clues" to seal it. Either you close it and seal it yourself, or you just close it. Usually, you'll want to seal when possible, but there are advantages to just closing a gate; if the open gates are getting close to the limit, or if you are going for a victory by having all gates removed.

@Grudunza

Then u have to close and seal at the same time. it is not possible to close, go for clues, get back to the place where the gate was and seal it, righ?

[Grudunza]

@Kieik That's correct. When you return from an Other World, you gain an explored token, meaning you can close (and if able, seal) that gate, but as soon as you leave a location you lose the explored token.

Do monsters in the sky look for the lowest base sneak or sneak + factors of your items, etc. Really considering buying this game for me and my buddies.

[Grudunza]

@Haseo2010 Items are always considered optional to use... for example, when fighting monsters, you don't have to use your weapons. So it's up to you as far as whether you would want an item's Sneak bonus to apply. But I believe that Skill bonuses would apply, and presumably also bonuses from Allies, though I'm not 100% sure about that.

thank you nerdy guy alone in a hotel room for teaching me how to play

[Grudunza]

@POPWARisSick Ha. I'm more of a "geek" than "nerd", though. :oP

[Grudunza]

@LouisNavor Yes. One of each of those can be in play together.

[LouisNavor]

Does there only have be one mythos card in play or can there be a rumor card, environment, and headline in play, at once?

[NuGhost]

Since Ithaqua's effect ignores the weather changes, does this mean the effect from the first card remains in play?

[Nionivek]

Thinking about buying this (Really expencive... I've seen it go for $120 dollars)

I love how harmless and malicious the game can just outright be. That Vampire earlier was not too much of a big deal, but some of these other cards are just outright malicious.

Plus I am a big fan of Co-op games over competative.
