What really stuck out for me in the game is that it has some mechanics similar to other games most of us have played, yet it blends them into a very nice tapestry. You will feel elements of magic, Scape, Dreamblade, Battleground, Chess, Stratego and a multitude of other games. I also love the simplicity of the game...very easy to pick up...yet great depth to keep a player interested for a very long time. Being a non blind purchase as well this game is a no-brainer.

If you think about it, it truly is a wonder this game has not been made before. Truth has taken all of the things we talk about on a daily basis about what we like and don't like and applied that to his game. So in a way for all of you guys who have not had a chance to play this yet I think you can take comfort in the fact that you likely had something to do with this game. These forums serve as a great soundboard to find out what people truly like and dislike...I don't know if a designer could have a more powerful tool at his disposal.

I don't know if this questions will be something that you need to keep secret for now, but if not, could you let us know a bit about the units?

The cards I've seen have both been from an elf faction. Do the other factions stay within a fantasy theme of similar genres, or do they cover a wider range, like heroscape, including robots and samurai.

I've never played a card game before, but if I can convince at least one other person in my group to try it, I'll give pick this up.

I sure wish that the ****** faction would be released soon too, I sure did love to play that army, with all of the ******s and the s******* **c****. What a great set.

I am really excited, and I can't wait to plop down ... wait... what is the retail price point expectation?
