Not knowing much about MTG, it looks like we just got the OGRE of Fantasy! This is so far much more than I expected from the first expansion, giving a whole new play style. Hooray! Can't wait to see more of it.

Re: Expansion Content

Looks like I was in the wrong thread. *sigh*

Anyhow, I dumped as much of the stats as I could see from the large pictures into this post.

I just realized the plastic on those red Goblins is solid and not translucent like the Phoenix and Firecats. I hope they are translucent in the final product.

It looks like the blue Merfolk Roilmage went from solid to translucent between the picture on Toyland/PurplePawn and the picture on Amazon.

Re: Expansion Content

Awesome thanks for the info! I am a little sad that everything is unique, mainly because I want an army of goblins, but that's ok, it makes a lot of the spell cards still viable. I am also sad that we have a white flier but it's not an angel, but then again I am really happy for the theme of this set.

I wonder when it comes to the eldrazi scenario, when it has 3 players or 4 players, is that including or excluding the person using the eldrazi? I can't wait to figure out how to scale to include even more people.

Re: Expansion Content

Cool scans.
Interesting they chose Purple and not Gray, but I suppose purple does pop.
I wonder how the Eldrazi and other purple cards are summoned. I wonder if there are purple spells.

I've been playing AotP online and last night was my first hardcopy game. We all agreed that we liked the armies being monocolored. It made it seem more like a game and the armies more cohesive and readily identified.
The other players were all Magic players and somehow they all knew about the expansion. They said that there is going to be an AotP expansion release with each regular set release and each will have matching themes. They said it rather matter-of-fact-ly

Awesome. So if this becomes a parallel product, it should have a nice long life, hopefully. Good for the game, not good for my wallet.

Re: Expansion Content

So, how often is a regular MTG set released?

Re: Expansion Content

Depends on what is meant by a set. Magic now releases 2 blocks per year but each block consists of 2 sets. They also release special sets, like Commander.

Re: Expansion Content

They're going to have to pick up the pace if they want to release in parallel. I'm betting we get one expansion per block, rather than per set.

That's likely, particularly since this coming expansion will be releasing alongside Oath of the Gatewatch (Set 2 of the Battle for Zendikar Block) rather than the actual Battle for Zendikar set.

I agree with the sound of this one.

I won't complain

I'll take 2 expansions a year. Heck, I'd take 4. Maybe they should have 4 expansions at the same time, and release 2 or 3 of these "waves" each year as well.

Come on Hasbro, take my money!!
