Re: Magic: the Gathering Strategy Board Game
I dunno, they look like they're molded from the semi translucent plastic that most of the AotP figures are made from. Its hard to tell though.
What I'm most curious about is the Planeswalkers. I don't recognize any of the minis. |

Re: Magic: the Gathering Strategy Board Game
The first difference that I noticed is that it has Ajani & Garruk instead of Gideon & Nissa.
Though numerous pronunciation attempts have been made, I have recently spurned my moniker. Feel free to refer to me as BowTieJones instead.

Re: Magic: the Gathering Strategy Board Game
I like the solid color figures. I'd like the Planeswalkers to have a big painting job upgrade however.
Edit: There is clearly a Jace in the MtG format of using loyalty counters and abilities that modify loyalty counter count |

Re: Magic: the Gathering Strategy Board Game
I remember seeing HS in the prototype for the first one, but they quickly had the new molds.

Re: Magic: the Gathering Strategy Board Game
Cool. Just found out about this game today. Got rid of my scape collection a long time ago and haven't played a game that wasn't a video game in years. Would be cool to jump back in.

http://magic.wizards.com/en/content/arena-planeswalkers It looks like this page is recent, like only a day or two old. I still don't see how to navigate to it from main magic.wizards.com page. Good grief. I already see an error where it describes Talent of the Telepath, saying you can use it to re-play one of your own sorcery spells. No you can't. It only let's you re-play an opponent's sorcery spell. |

Re: Magic: the Gathering Strategy Board Game
Has anyone actually played the game yet? I've seen it out in two stores now and am oddly tempted to pick it up. What's the game play like?
73 tournaments. 175 - 145 - 1 overall record. 6 tournament wins. |

Plus the game is so cheap so why not? They will be releasing an expansion in January at least which is needed to help the longevity of the game so you can get a headstart now! |

It's basically Magic the Gathering, but instead of combat phase simply being tap swing, you play Heroscape. I like it a lot, probably more than Heroscape. |
