Excellent. Then I announce the winners (and it's a very close round).
1) Mr Lurtzy AND DáinIronfoot
2) sickofpalantirs
3) NappyKorn
So let's give them some gold as we move onto the next round!
(Entries now have names attached if you look at the last post, by the way).
We are now moving into some serious horizontal cycles (ie. similar cards across cultures), which is something that Decipher introduced in the Realms of the Elf Lords to limited success. So, our first cycle is made of the following cards:
Clearly, they are all rubbish cards (except for
Terrible as the Dawn which was amazing for the brief period in between the release of
Lady Redeemed and her X-ing) and need serious redoing - for good reason, Decipher just didn't make cards like these anymore.
And don't worry, I only want you to make virtual versions of
2 of the above cards (your choice which).
So here are the rules for this round. Your cards must:
1) Have the
same title (with a (V) attached to the end)
2) Have the
same twilight cost and culture -
the cards could make sense as either events or conditions, but if you make a good case for some other type, I won't argue!3) Have whatever
attribute modifiers you think appropriate
4) Have a
different text, maybe similar, but could also be on completely different lines
*IN FACT: I expect them on different lines - I don't want cards that are magic bullets against certain characters or cultures or anything else. The two cards that you design should be based on the same idea, as the basis of a whole Shadow cycle, and they should try to update these old cultures with new mechanics like: threats, site control, resistance, initiative, lurkers etc. Basically, strategy and mechanics this round are entirely up to you.5) Have a lore which you want, it's really up to you - you can keep the same lore or put in your own, it doesn't really matter.
You may want to change the lores in this case particularly because they are very strongly geared to the characters the original cards are built to combat, but you may not.So, you're card should look something like this:
Title (V) [Culture]
Type • Sub-type
Str: +X
Vit: +Y
Res/Sit: +Z
Game text.
Lore.3 V 50/80/85/103/105
So, what is there left to say other than: happy DCing!
Oh yeah, and the deadline will be a bit extended both because this could be quite a difficult (and pivotal) round and because Anvar is away this week. So the deadline is therefore
Wednesday 11th June.
