Caverns of Time Raid Deck- Treasure Pack is unopened
Icecrown Citadel Raid Deck- Treaure Pack unopened
Shadowfang Keep Dungeon Deck- Treasure Pack opened
The Deadmines Dungeon Deck- Treasure Pack Unopened

So who else is excited for this new Dragonball Super card game? Anyone else get in on their free demo kit promotion?

If you haven't heard of it, it's very similar to Duel Masters, it just has hero characters for your deck as well. It looks fun and releases at the end of July, and spoilers have already started. They revealed all the commons in the first set on thursday.

The old DBZ card games are a monument to power creep, so hopefully this one will be able to handle it better than actual Dual Masters did.

Unfortunately no, it hit the 1000 person limit on Monday. Though you can probably check facebook for any local people that did get it. It's 4 identical half decks.

Heads up for the dbs tcg. The first demo kits are going out now. I say first because they're doing a new promotion soon that the 1000 you got stuff this time, can't enter. So keep an eye on the website!

Anyone heard of Megacorp TCG it looks... different, but also incredibly derivative.

From what I understand you start with a Founder and Corp in play. Then build off adjacently from them and adjacency impacts what you can attack. You can also buy your opponents tapped cards. And the top card of either discard. And the primary resource is persistent across turns and a loss condition and then there are four others as well that don't do either of those things. And those four sub-resources are also combat stats.

I'm both intrigued and convinced never to spend money on it.

I'm watching the video tutorial:

The spacial element and the fact that you can buy your opponents' cards are both pretty cool. I know the line art is just for the beta but it'd be cool if they left a couple cards like that.

There's so much stuff to keep track of. It should probably be a software-only game. Each phase has multiple subphases you'll have to return all the cards to their rightful owners after every single game. Lots of possible error points.

also they spelled civilian "civillian" lol

I'd try it.

I played the Illuminati CCG way back when. It was a great beer & pretzels game for a bunch of friends to play, but not so great as a strategy game.

This particular game looks sorta like a riff on Netrunner.

On a semi-related note I heard Munchkin was getting a CCG, which itself will be a parody of CCGs. My immediate reaction was a flat "why".

No idea if it's been released yet.

Bumping to see if anyone's played Lightseekers. It's a unique take on TCGs if only for the sole reason that it isn't a "dude basher". It doesn't have creatures with power and toughness that bash into each other on their way to attack the player. You have a hero card with an ability and some life, and most of the gameplay revolves around cards like this:



This is a Buff. It's a permanent that stays in play. Buffs start in the normal card position, and usually do a thing when you play them. This one does (rotate symbol) damage to any opponent. So right away it's going to deal 1 damage to your opponent. At the start of your turn, you rotate all your Buffs counter-clockwise, then resolve all your Buff cards from left to right. So this one's going to deal 2 damage the next turn, and 2 damage the next turn, and 2 damage again. When a Buff rotates to its starting position or rotates to a blank corner, it gets trashed when you'd go to resolve it.

There's more cards also that basically boil down to sorceries in Magic, and Combo cards that require you to reveal certain elements in your hand and shuffle those revealed cards back into your deck. You get two actions a turn to play cards, and you draw a card for each unspent action at the end of your turn. The art is Hearthstone-lite because it's based on toys and some mobile RPG game that I haven't seen or tried, but at least it's not embarrassing on the level of half-naked anime girls. The guy demoing the game showed us that you can preview the cards in a starter deck by using the app in some neat little augmented reality view.

I don't like that there's exclusive cards in kid toys and starter decks that you need to buy multiple of to get playsets, but if anyone's going to play this competitively they should look into singles. I only scratched the surface of the gameplay with the demos, but it's definitely interesting.

I haven't played this, but I like the idea of a CCG doing new things with the physical cards themselves. There's a lot of game design space in two dimensions of cardboard that most games ignore just to go with the ol' tapping/untapping.

I don't understand who is buying Munchkin games. I see a dozen different versions at my LGS, and yet no one ever buys them. I never see them in people's game collections. No one ever brings them to meet-ups. I don't think I've seen anyone play a single game of Munchkin in almost ten years.

I had a friend who thought Munchkin Axe Cop was the funniest loving thing she'd ever seen. Every time we hung out she'd insist everyone play it, and usually we would. But then she'd keep wanting to play it, for hours, all night; every time she hung out with someone who hadn't played it she'd rope them (and the rest of us) into it too. There's like 4 monkeycheese jokes in that fuckin' game. Eventually a buddy burned it and told her he lost it on a camping trip lol

I Used to play munchkin a lot as a teen, it was always really fun. Though the day I saw Munchkin Pathfinder, as in based on the Pathfinder RPG, I realized I was done with it. I've never seen a game jump the shark like that before, it was amazing.

I do know people still play because I saw add last spring for a "tournament series" featuring games like munchkin and king of tokyo. So now you can imagine what a munchkin tournament player must be like.

Munchkin is kind of a red-headed stepchild. It's full of jokes lampooning gaming in general and D&D in particular, so only gamers will get it. OTOH, it's not a deep strategy game so it doesn't appeal to grognards. The only real audience is for a D&D group who just smoked a doobie and cracked open a case of Rolling Rock, and want something light-hearted and easy.

All the boardgamers I know hate the fuckin thing because the thin humor wears off 10 minutes into the game. And if you're playing with any more than three people who are all trying to win, then the game takes two loving hours. A friend of mine calls it, "twenty minutes of fun in a two hour box."

The idea of a Munchkin CCG or Munchkin tabletop game is even worse. Like, just play the actual games they're lampooning, just... with a sense of humor.

I think a Munchkin TCG actually has more promise than the Munchkin boxed card game. I think the humor is cute, but I'm not a roleplayer, just a card flipping nerd who sees a lot of the jokes the game references in D&D players at the shop.

Final Fantasy TCG is a lot of fun to play, unfortunately the issues stated last year have yet to be rectified, it is almost as though Square-Enix picked the first company on the west coast that said they had a nationwide supply chain and gave them an exclusive deal!

Nationals happened, Singapore had Regionals and Nationals, we got... 200 people can fly themselves to California and hope for the best.

Stock... has not improved. Starter decks are almost impossible to find (outside of online, but if your tcg is "that one you can only buy on the internet" good luck forming any live scene) Though they are apparently going to reprint the first couple expansions and starters.

The rumor come out, though, that Square is not pleased with how GTS is handling their end, so we may see some improvement once the contract expires.

So yeah, it is a lot like the good old days of FF11, JP ONRY and waiting for weeks in the snow.

I really enjoyed Lightseekers. I demo'd it at PAX Unplugged and I'm speculating pretty heavily on it. I love the idea. I'm stocking up on sealed product and building some full sets. I hope it picks up and replaces FoW entirely. It's got some neat depth while still being pretty kid-friendly.

I like collecting cheap defunct CCGs, especially Japanese ones, but now I just have a ton of them taking up space that I値l never play. I知 thinking of making a sort of dead CCG museum type of site where I just have scans of all the cards I have from dead series.

2 questions
1 - Where would be the best place online to get free hosting for a bunch of CCG scans?
2 - Anyone want to inherit a bunch of Japanese trading cards after I scan them all? I値l only ask for the cost of shipping them all (I知 in the US). Otherwise I might just dump them. Also this could be an ongoing thing as I buy more cards, scan them and send them along.
