I do think that this is going in in the wrong thread. Still...

If I was in a room full of Mexicans, then yes I would.

Also, there's a reason stereotypes are believed in. It's because they are frequently true. Not by any genetic difference between the races or any law of nature, but by psychology and social programming, and people not being defined by their race/gender/etc. There are two ways a Mexican boy grows to like spicy food:

1. He's told that it's part of his heritage for so long he starts to believe it must be true, especially if it's prevalent in his family, and unconciously convinces himself that he must like spicy food.

2. He eats a few Flamin' Hot Cheetos, realizes they're delicious, and proceeds to consume other spicy foods. He may be aware that his tastes are stereotypical, but he doesn't care, because NOT doing something because it's stereotypical is putting too much effort into race, which he probably knows is not the reason he finds the food delicious.

Either way, that boy, and many other people who happen to be Mexican, enjoy a nice chopped-up hot dog with Tapatio brand hot sauce all over it. I like to think I'm a pretty good example of the second possibility. I'm half-white, half-Mexican and bisexual, and I like spicy food and musicals. Hopefully, all can agree that my father's hometown and my attraction to men has nothing to do with eating a Spicy Chicken Fillet from Wendy's while I watch Little Shop of Horrors, but nonetheless I have traits that are considered "typical" of Mexicans and gay men.

and as a democrat once told me "I'm sorry, ADHD kicked in. I didn't feel like reading a bit of that". It doesn't matter to me that you guys don't like to face facts, but it is a waste of my time to bother with blind & deaf fools.

Ok, you make irrational statements, when challenged to prove them, you insult us. Very mature.

Irrational statements? I state facts that you don't want to face because you have your head so far up your false god's ass. You make up your own crap about racism when I have a dictionary to prove me right. You want to believe in a baby killing worm like he's an almighty god that does no wrong. If he told you to cut your head off with a guillotine and that you would survive, you'd do it. I define that as being a fool, and that's what you are. Period.

I am so happy that my scenario is so well designed/ written and socially relevant it can spur "conversation".

I can't wait to see what happens when I post my scenario about the economy.

Yeah, how about that scenario?

[According to MY online dictionary, the above means: "Why don't you BOTH shut up?]

Debate concluded. Thanks for playing.

Lol. Okay. Back to the scenario. It inspired me to play with my werewolves more often actually. Anyone got a good build for this scenario on either side?

I'm done with this so-called "debate". I've been done with the debate when I posted:

It is impossible to debate when the conversation degenerates into insults, personal attacks, name-calling & the like. For my part, I will readily admit to challenging assumptions, and statements, but once the line is crossed as it had, the "debate" is over, and it's an argument. I will not participate in that here, or anywhere else. "Ignore" is a wonderful feature, and I have employed it.

Here are the team builds I made just for this scenario

300 point (Jigsaw Faction)
Jigsaw (The Lab) Unique 120 points
Werewolf Orderly (The Lab) Rookie 30 points
Frothweiler (The Lab) Experienced 25 points
Reptosapien (The Lab) Rookie 25 points
Plague Vagrant (The Lab) Veteran 60 points
Frothweiler (The Lab) Rookie 20 points
Zombie Patient (The Lab) Rookie 20 points
Total: 295 points

300 point (Aristocratic Clan)
Werewolf Leader (Nightmares) 120 points
She-Wolf (Freakshow) Rookie 55 points
Dog Soldier (Base set) rookie 25 points
Dog Soldier (Base set) Veteran 45 points
Dire Wolf (Base set) Rookie 20 points
Dire Wolf (Base set) Veteran 35 points
Total: 300 points


I think these teams will play well. Make sure you use the Zombie Horde subplot to make it more thematic. I think with these builds the Werewolf Leader has more of an advantage with range but Jigsaw and his plan for change isn't out yet. Jigsaw's minion power (Stealth) can make his minions true meat shields more valuable.

After you finish playing this scenario, please post your results here.

That's not a bad set of teams. Might I suggest trading plague vagrant out for Bobo V for jigsaw's team. I would also suggest ditching a dog soldier because of the "too much transforming" thing combined with werewolf leader needing victims for spree. leader can get an insane 6 damage with spree while also having reflexes and his cabal power. But ditching a ranged guy would also give them too much of an advantage because stealth would become next to useless.

I never used Bobo but figures that can become insane were never my favorite. Until he gains Injection he is a great figure to use.

Rat boy (Plague Vargrant) is just one of my personal favorites. I have always had great experiences using him.

You made a great point with the Leader and the Dog Soldiers. I never paid attention that it was too much transformation going on there. I guess we can add other members of the Wolf Clan (Dire Wolf, Bane Wolf or another She-Wolf).

Maybe some more dire wolves. That way you can use the cabal power from leader. The others still transform. x.x
Also, Bobo V doesn't ever go insane. Injection targets the struck foe, right?
