Magic: the Gathering Strategy Board Game

I just noticed that Amazon and Walmart dropped it down to $19 (not sure how long ago).

Of course... Right after I pay the full $30 for my bonus edition!

Bonus edition?

Walmart Edition with foil cards and more hex terrain.
Dang. They just dropped the price on the Bonus edition also. It's down to $20.51. I added it to my birthday (11/14) wish list. I need to keep proving to my wife that I'm just a big kid. :)
 
You know, if I give my current copy away to a friend I could justify buying the bonus edition for myself...

GREAT IDEA Caps. DANG! I wish I knew that there even be a Bonus edition with "more terrain," etc. And if your friend does get interested in it, you'd have someone to play with and eventually lead him/her over to the Dark Side... muuuwaaahaahaahaa!


I missed out on the Onyx Vipers Bonus edition of HS at Walmart, because at the time they were on clearance for $20 for a complete master Set, I thought to myself, I probably already have enough terrain for what I want to do (- play LOTR Combat Hex on a 3D map -) and who's ever going to use "snakes" on a battlefield. I can (~~lol~~) and :"o ( a little now after I spent twice that just for the 3 figures and card.
 
I once saw the Gladiators/Nakitas marked down to $2.50 but I hesitated and I've been thinking about it years since
 
Got the expansion for Christmas and the pieces look great, especially the Goblins, and the winged Kor. Eldrazi are huge and look as menacing as they should be.
Card art is thematic

I once said the elf squad figures were too thin be of Heroscape scale, but then I took out my Drow and now those guys are tiny! Way worse than the Rangers.

Already?? I didn't think it was supposed to drop 'til mid January?
 
Bought this for my 10 year old nephew and got one game in.

Pretty fun. Lots of strategy with all the spells and powers. Looking forward to the next game.

More info on the expansion Confred! please :)

Amazon also was selling it a month early, just like they did with the base game.
 
The expansion looks pretty cool. Just "pre-ordered" it from Amazon. Expecting it this week sometime. If you're okay waiting the extra time and are going to spend enough to get free shipping, it is cheapest at CSI.

Loooove coolstuffinc, and the discount you get for repeated patronage is great, but I didn't wanna wait, so Amazon got my money as soon as I saw it was available. Should be here tomorrow. :)
 
I preorderd at CSI and the price is why I'm not mad I don't have mine yet. Next time I will be ordering through Amazon for sure. Its not the retailer's fault, they are at the mercy of their distributor.

Unless the reason the distributor hasn't delivered to the retailer because he hasn't paid his account. Which is what seems to happen with my local store quite a bit. :mad:
 
Haven't got mine from coolstuffinc either, and its kind of irritating because I could have got mine cheaper off of amazon a couple weeks ago. The price is cheaper, but when you add in shipping compared to an order of 35 or more on amazon with free shipping it would be cheaper through amazon. I'll stick to just ordering mini singles off coolstuffinc from here out.
 
Expansion arrived today. Cards look pretty cool!
 
My Friendly Local Game Shop has one waiting for me tomorrow,

Going to test it out with my Little brother.
 
@Aldin @quozl looking to spice it up a little in some future plays; did you have some rules for playing a planeswalker army vs. a Heroscape army?
 
Just play the Heroscape army like Heroscape and the Planeswalker army like Planeswalkers.

What point value should the Heroscape side be to go up against an army from the Arena core box? How would you build a planeswalker army to match an increased our reduced Heroscape army point value?
 
Hmm, I thought the spell deck had to factor in somehow.
 
The cost of the spell deck is built into the cost of the planeswalker.

After testing both the Red and Black Planes walkers against heroscape armies, I found them to be very fun match ups. At one point I had used a Goblin/Brute army to take out all of the Black Squads and most of Nissa's life then she was able to wipe out all my goblins with a few spells. It was close and fun!
