So because of that, each player has only 3 units currently to use, unlike heroscape where each player had a couple dozen by this point for their choices.

The color specificity has bitten Hasbro in ass without more content or rules to allow a freer flowing army build.
Totally agree. The color limitation means you have pretty much 5 army configs to choose from...leading to very little in the way of variety.

Perhaps as you mentioned though they plan to under promise and over deliver in regards to the timeline.

Does anyone else wonder what "twisted terrain" means in that image? What terrain type might that be? Some kind of wasteland? I am not familiar with Mtg lore to make an intelligent interpretation.
