Being human is a condition of the heart and soul. One is human on the outside if they are human on the inside. Kumbaya.

I guess this was the heart of my argument, that anyone not of Earth origin is an alien, and therefore not human. But I get where everyone is coming from in the grand scheme of things. It's got to essentially be green 👽 to be non-human. Really only Tom can answer this one, and he’d prob file it under “It’s up to you, Promoter!” but you’re not playing wrong either way. Tharkas is a real interesting character being the only active GWF card that came from Promoter Prime. His first card was a looooong time ago. Every set I expect either an update or for him to leave the fed. Tom seems to like Tharkas and keeps him around.I agree only human means humanoid in nature and not an alien.

It seems like some people are conflating the terms "human" and "Earthling". Human is anyone who looks like us, not necessarily just those native to Earth.

I guess I'm in the minority. Human is us. Of Earth. Human and humanoid I don't think are the same thing. I don't play GWF and never used this card so there's that.

Have enjoyed the debate! And....for what its worth.... would love to see "The Game" come back to the boards with new results. I realize its a lot of work, and can be tough to keep up (heck, I have a hard time posting once in a great while!). But, I did enjoy it so. Maybe the year end shows?? On the edge of my seat hoping for it... Enjoyed the discussion!

Love Tharkus (wish he had a tag team partner that also wears those cool red and gold jackets also much like Kralla) however I don't do mixed tags.
Regarding the human element, I've always had him target Earthlings, Titans and those pesky off world colonists (More Human than human!)
