I can't really tell from these pics, but is the only foil part of the card the border?

False Wisdom's art got reused for Magic Charms? Weird. I guess they've done that for a few other cards, like Demonic Blockade, Plague of Boils, Fire Smoke & Sulfur, Fourth Living Creature... still weird.

Terrifying Beast is the first one that came to my mind. ...I wish they just got new pics for every card, but I guess that's a lot more work. :-\

That's how it appears to me as well.

I'm pretty sure it's the entire card.  The silver brigade cards' stats box is the same shinyness as the border of the card.

As is the gray brigade...or at least my Pretension and Entrapping Pharisee are.

Oh, yeah, there were a couple of grumbles about that.  I think it's obvious enough what colors they are, especially since they already looked fairly similar.

All the borders are foiled.
Some of the brigade boxes are foiled (silver and gray).
Various other parts of the illustration are, but it's a subtle effect that demands you see it in real life. They look really good.
They feel very slick on the top and are actually a fair bit heavier than other cards due to the metal used.

Sweet, now that sounds a lot better than how I was picturing them after seeing those pics...

It seems like for every awesome bit of Eternal Studios/Cahaba Productions art (the new Attending Angel), there has to be a lame bit of AOCOM art from Angel Wars (the new Angel of Warning). Gah! :P

I don't know...I don't know how many times I've been asked if someone can play their evil Gold enhancement on a Gold hero...this could get tricky... :P

The cards are amazing. It's basically if you took a card and put a very thin silver gloss over it.
