I know it's kind of early to be thinking about this, but...does anyone have any info on the next set that's coming out - names, themes, anything?

Everyone knows that when someone says "kind of," they mean "really." ::)

...How long has it been since they made a booster set? I've kind of been itching for one for the last...two/three years...although tins and starter decks do let me catch up on my collecting. :-\

Bryon also said there was going to be a Veggietales expansion a couple years back...

Since Cactus seems to like the smaller sets/tins in terms of the wacky economy, a starter would fit that concept.  Besides, didn't the last starters release just after Kings?  It's getting about time for new starters.

1. I was trying to figure out where to put it, and this seemed like the best place. :-\

2. I've already heard that it's a starter.

3. I already know it's too early; I said that in the post.

the last starter was 10th anniversary edition and that was 4 years ago between Angel Wars and Priests

I want a booster set especially as both Kings and Patriarchs are running out of stock

Since the front page for Redemption at Cactus Game Design says, "10th Anniversary Collector Tins
Sold out!"  I would bet money that the next release of new cards is going to be a starter set.  Anybody want to take the bet?  $5? $10?

Hey, if they make a new starter, do you think they might make a new gift set using Nicholas of Antioch? I haven't been able to find that card anywhere...ever.

Each year after nationals play testers are hammering and working on the new set/deck/tins/cheese wedge/companion cube/etc. We get one per year, so there is plenty of adjustment time. Other card games release them every 2-3 months O_o talk about rule changes/no time to adjust.

The set this year could be:

a) starters
b) boosters
c) tins
d) nothing
e) something else

I think I can safely say that the Veggie Tales expansion will not be released in 2009.  :)

I've always thought that they should make a magician/sorcerer set...like, at least, a starter deck with magicians as the EC theme, you know.

but magicians were spread out culturaly... so it'd be a bunch of diff brigades for a starter.

Yeah, but don't they kind of do that anyway? And also, I wish they would go for more of a different strategy in the starter decks, like heroless or something, just to shake it up.

I agree that it would be interesting to have a starter set with 2 decks that were very different from each other, rather than just different colors of the same thing.

For instance, one deck could be primarily offensively focused, and the other deck could be primarily defensively focused.  This would still make for a fair match-up against each other, but would also allow a couple of new possibilities for players just beginning.  It would allow people to choose which style they preferred from the time they first start playing the game.  It would also allow a person who bought a starter deck to make a really strong single deck by combining the best of the offense in one deck with the best of the defense in the other :)
