First off, I had been trying to limit how much of my Arkham stuff I bring, so I didn’t have any of my extra cards/tokens. Well, the instructions had us add a new token to the bag, so I ended up having an extra somewhere and had to draw the token that I needed (they are in coin capsules so it made it easy). Using one of the apps for the token bag would definitely help this issue, but I’ve used that in the past and I prefer the tactile feel of pulling the tokens from the bag.

When I drew up my initial hand, pretty much had only neutral skill cards. They are fine to get later in the game, but I don’t really want them in the beginning of the game. So I mulliganed most of them. Then, based on how we did in the second part, we had to discard 2 cards at random from our hand. Well, one of the cards in my hand was Lita Chandler, and I knew that she was going to be very valuable during this game due to her stat buff. I was really nervous about her being the card that got discarded. Luckily, it ended up being something not as important.
