Title: May 4th...and still no word on the new set?
Post by: TechnoEthicist on May 04, 2011, 09:35:57 AM
Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't we know about the Disciples and how the card distribution would work by now? I see lots of rumors and "hints". I just want to know set name, size, and distribution. Thanks!

We were actually done playtesting at this time last year. April 12th or something was our deadline last year.

This year, for reasons semi-unknown to us, our deadline isn't until May 18th. I suspect more information may come out around then. As far as size, I'll tell you that its smaller than Disciples. (but larger than a breadbox ;) )

Maybe if you channel the power of the fourth, you can use a jedi mind trick on a playtester.

Your tricks only work on the weak minded. ::)

So here's what I can tell you:

Some are green cards,
some are mean cards,
there are blue cards,
there are new cards,
really nice gold cards,
lots of old cards,
simply amazing red,
and a curse that's dead.

that was pretty hilarious! Gabe aka "The Cat in the Hat"! From this I gather that ot red is getting a boost as well as judges. Whoever I traded my Samson promo to 3 years ago, please return it to me asap.

Green needed new cards like the Disciples needs more cards.... unless you meant Pale Green)....I hope that we can see some Royalty come back to the game...or I don't know, what about some Deacons? Will there be ample representation of all of the colors?

I stand by my former statement...I am hoping for more randomization in card distribution like TeP and Disciples had..just with less paying for things I have already have 20+ of to get a few new cards...

The first article was posted June 18th last year, while my first pre-order was June 8th. I had found out enough information about the set to determine a price for the complete set by June 4th. I know the name of the set was released by April 23rd last year.

Post by: Warrior_Monk on May 04, 2011, 01:32:55 PM
I like how everybody always wants the worst themes/brigades to get a boost, and then the next year they'll do the same thing. "Purple needs a boost..." and we get disciples...let's not ask for too big of a boost.

From the little that I know, I'm liking the new set. But I don't know much...
Title: Re: May 4th...and still no word on the new set?

No. I'm pretty certain on that, we haven't had a big set since I went to my first Nationals in 2006.

Post by: Alex_Olijar on May 04, 2011, 02:21:54 PM
You won't get a big set unless Redemption magically doubles in player base or they skip a year for a set probably. If it hasn't happened yet, that means they don't have enough capital on hand.
Title: Re: May 4th...and still no word on the new set?
Post by: Minister Polarius on May 04, 2011, 02:37:19 PM
Thing is, people are crying about "smaller" sets, but in reality they're just as big if not bigger in terms of good cards. Almost every single Disciples card is usable, most are good, and there are only a couple fluff cards. Huge sets that we've had in the past were rife with fluff, so in terms of real size, Di is same size or bigger than booster expansions.

Luke Heroes need no boost, I can assure of that, but give them one anyway cause they are my favorite. Good Samaritan and Master's Table FTW!

Title: Re: May 4th...and still no word on the new set?
Post by: Red Dragon Thorn on May 04, 2011, 04:11:51 PM
If you did any PT with Gabe/Kevin at IA state, you can safely assume that those cards are making it in. Our cut-off for removing/adding cards to the set was about a month ago. Do remember not to actually spoil anything please.

You wouldn't be spoiling anything if you revealed them.  Simply revealing cards does not cause mold or other "spoliants" to grow.
(Unless said card is a reprint of Spreading Mildew).

They won't necessarily be printed in the form that you saw them.  At this point I'm trying to focus mostly on the controversial cards so there's a good chance that they could change.

Making very sure there's not another Thad or TGT?
Title: Re: May 4th...and still no word on the new set?
Post by: Red Dragon Thorn on May 04, 2011, 07:15:03 PM
Nope, we decided that Thad was too weak, get ready to meet Thad V 2.0 ;)

TGT was actually a really good card as far as playtesting work goes - It's not broken because of itself, TGT doesn't win games without some serious help, TGT became unbalanced because we didn't predict the meta-shift that happened, making territory destruction really, really, really good, at allowing TGT to punish single color defenses as much as multi-color ones.

Thad was a legit mistake, partially caused by me, that created a card that is broken on its own merits, not because of a shift in game play.

I took a guess on a new civilization that will be included in the new set and it raised some eyebrows with people in high places so I am 99.987% sure I am dead on.  Pretty sure what color it is too.

Buckler - 0/2 Red GE/Black EE

So, anyone notice...

Gates of Samaria

Iron Pan: Prophecy about the siege of the Northern Kingdom, of which the capital at that time was Samaria (Ezekiel 4)

Tower of Thebez: About the invasion of Shechem/Thebez, which guess what, were in Samaria (Judges 9).

Covenant with Death - Isaiah 28- in the KJV, guess what. SAMARIA.

Methinks that the new civ is Samarians...

I'm not saying it's in the civilization as it pertains to the set. I'm saying that it was related to Samaria: I was just pointing out a pattern.

And honestly, Iron Pan HAS to mess with forts or sites. Read the passage:

"Moreover take thou unto thee an iron pan, and set it for a wall of iron between thee and the city: and set thy face against it, and it shall be besieged, and thou shalt lay siege against it. This shall be a sign to the house of Israel."

Generally speaking, Yankee refers to someone from New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware or Maryland. Someone from any of the New England states (Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island) is referred to as a Patriot.

I think this discussion (at least about Silver and Red) is regarding the colors by themselves. Silver is pretty good paired with Green, for example.

Post by: CactusRob on May 17, 2011, 08:37:22 PM
Cactus is releasing a 60 card set for 2011.  It is packaged as three new FoOF Tins (XX, XXI, XXII) and three new RoA Tins (XXIII, XXIV, XXV).  The playtesters have worked hard on it and I hope you enjoy the new cards.  Thank you for understanding that Cactus must live within its means.  I plan to release the new tins at the National Tournament.

Rob, thanks for the information! I'm assuming the reason that you refer to them as FoOF and RoA tins is due to the other booster packs in them, right? I'm sure that they will have just as amazing of cards as we've had over the past few years - thanks for your hard work! :)

Some are green cards,
some are mean cards,
there are blue cards,
there are new cards,
really nice gold cards,
lots of old cards,
simply amazing red,
and a curse that's dead.

Therefore the pack 2/15th green, 2/15 mean, 2/15 blue, 2/15 new, 2/15 nice gold, 2/15 old,
Spoiler (hover to show)
and 2/15 dead curses.

There was also Foreign Sword. And I'm pretty sure RDT leaked one when talking about Seraph and Seraphim, but I'm looking for the thread...

EDIT:
80% certain that Seraph and Seraphim (Band Green) can NOT go in the same deck.
100% that Seraphim (Band Green) and Seraphim (Band Blue) CAN go in the same deck.
about 65% certain that Seraph and Seraphim (Band Blue) CAN go in the same deck.
100% certain that [EDITED BY R.O.S.E.S] and Seraphim (Band Blue) can NOT go in the same deck.

That means it's a Seraphim reprint, and has the same card art as the Blue Band one.

So, 10 cards. At least.

It isn't up yet, but hopefully soon.  Rob has the article, but he might want me to edit it first (it is rather long), and then it takes some time to format the card imag for posting, plus laying out the article on the page, plus fixing links, etc.  Hopefully we will see it up later today, but certainly by next week.

Since Rob probably won't get to it until next week, I posted a preview in the articles section of the board.

Thanks. I think the article would mean more if my computer showed to picture, but lucky for me I've already seen it.

There's only half a picture.  Though SWS might get EVEN BETTER if this card is what I think it is.

Superman has Kryptonite. What does Thad have?

Thad>Superman

How about Satan's Seat?

I'm really hating all the Satan's Seat love that's been going around. It's not that good. First off, you have to draw it and Pergamum, and MLAMG and D-Raid kill it, and since Pergamum is purple, it's really simple to clear it.

This should be fun, even for those who think they know some of the new cards. :)

Below is a list of things that we'll see in next years release (card types, abilities, classes, etc). There's also a  corresponding list of numbers 1-12. Each number on the left matches one of the terms on the right. That's how often you'll see that term appear in the new set.

Example: If one of the terms was "Cards Depicting Fire", the corresponding number might be 9. That means that there would be 9 cards in the new set that depict fire. It also means that none of the other terms will appear exactly 9 times in the set.

But I didn't want to make this too easy for you so I added a couple extra terms that do not match any number (they are either 0 or > 12). Have fun! ;D

Does "Warrior Class" include weapon class as well?

That wouldn't really be fair if you obtained a set list somehow and looked up the answers. :P

Lets look at some distributions of card types in the Tins (There may be off by one in either direction in some of the tins):

2 Heroes (~12 all together)
2 Good Enhancements (~12 all together)
2 Evil Characters (~12 all together)
2 Evil Enhancements (~12 all together)
2 Other cards (Art, Fort, Site, LS, Dominants (although I seriously doubt there will be a dominant (unless its like Doubt and likely to go into most decks))) (~12 all together)

All the Neutral cards would fit into the ~12 other cards, and there is at least 1 fortress so that means that the number of neutral cards will likely be less than 12, I would guess 6-8.

There will probably not be too many 12/12 cards, I would guess 0-2, all of them characters.

One Per Territory can only be enhancements, and probably won't be split colored, and likely territory class, I would probably guess it would be somewhere around 0-3.

If I get more information from the article that is supposed to come out this week I might modify my numbers.

Couldn't one per territory mean unique characters?
Title: Re: May 4th...and still no word on the new set?
Post by: browarod on June 20, 2011, 06:22:56 PM
Unique is a different rule than one per territory, I believe, so I doubt that's what it means.

I would assume that it would mean the identifier One Per Territory

Post by: Gabe on June 20, 2011, 06:46:41 PM
Yes, it's like the identifier on Abom.
Title: Re: May 4th...and still no word on the new set?
Post by: Sadness on June 20, 2011, 07:20:40 PM
Maybe the spilt cards will be: Judas Iscriot(Purple/Crimson), Angel/Fallen Angel(Silver/Orange), King Saul(Purple/Brown) or Sites: Jerusalem(Good Multi/Evil Multi), or Enhancements: King Solomon's Wisdom/King Solomon's Idol Worship(Purple/Brown), Faith of Elijah/Fear of Elijah

Just some ideas:)
Title: Re: May 4th...and still no word on the new set?
Post by: Warrior_Monk on June 20, 2011, 07:44:38 PM
King Solomon's and Elijah's enhancements they probably wouldn't do, since they might as well be two separate cards. If something could be used for good or evil, it could be split.
Title: Re: May 4th...and still no word on the new set?
Post by: Gabe on June 20, 2011, 07:48:45 PM
Sorry, I guess I caused some confusion by using the term "Split Cards". I meant "Two Brigade Cards".

Good logic Christian Soldier. I like where your thinking. :)

I just thought, in RoA there was one Lost Soul per tin, could that mean that there are going to be a Lost Soul in each of the new RoA tins?

Obviously its not like the card designers were limited to that, but it would follow the pattern, so I'm going to guess that there will be at least 3 Lost Souls in the set (in the RoA tins) (although this is just a guess based on the pattern in the tins from a few years ago)

My guess is there won't be any new lost souls this year.

There is only one Lost Soul that I know of, But here is a hint, it has the same picture as one of the lost souls we already have.

Post by: ChristianSoldier on June 23, 2011, 04:58:56 PM
Well based on the new article:

At least 1 card that directly counters Thad  (Tower of Thebez)
At least 2 Two Brigaded card, (Jezabel and Abimelech)
Gibeonite Delegates is likely Generic (So at least 1)
Assuming Kings refers to characters that are kings and not Kings reprints there is 1 and likely 2 in there, (Abimelech and likely King Ahab)
Abimelech is likely warrior class, and if Ahab is printed he will be warrior class
