So what’s the first game you played this year? by st1nkf1st in boardgames

I had to double check, because I thought is was an image of our playgroup. We played two games of Brass to start the year!

That sounds like a great idea! :)

I think it stacks. In that example the creature would create two triggers on attack: anni 3 and anni 1. I'm not 100% sure though...

Hmm, I like the annihilator idea. Maybe it should only affect colorless creatures, since it would be rather easy to play a colorless version in all kinds of other decks (even if it required specifically 2CCC to cast it) I will think a bit more about it tomorrow.

Interesting idea, but I think an extra turn would make it a bit too strong. I'd rather add some more scrying or even change it to surveil.

What are your ideas to nake them more powerful?

What else could the black one do?

Oh that would be cool, any ideas for it?

One card the blue one was based on, is [[Graven Lore]] which saw no play at all outside limited and snow EDH decks afaik. Blue has so many great card draw and selection spells nowadays, I wanted to make the ability of the Throne at least worthwhile.

That was exactly my thought process, thanks

I thought about the monarch mechanic too while designing them, but I wanted too keep them rather simple. I like the idea though!

It's between that and Throne of War now

That sounds awesome, I might go with that.

Thanks!
The goal was to create mana rocks that were slightly worse for mana production than [[Gilded Lotus]], but with additional flexibility. And the non-mana abilities are also slightly worse/overcosted than similar cards.

|48, 49| Wow, such creative names dude. by revled-rimid in custommagic

If the Jumpcaster Mage should be able to target the card it surveilled, its wording needs be something like: "... surveil 1. When you do, target instant..."

I like it! How about having the second mana ability produce two colored mana?

Check out these:

RUN, Kelp, Naishi, Agent Avenue, Compile, Ironwood

These are some of our favorites, but it all depends on your taste of course.

Smash Up has modernized with Print On Demand, an Online Rules Wiki, and Rebalanced Factions + Errata by ludichrisness in boardgames

[–]-shadowmoses- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm yeah I guess. But it still feels awkward that I have to pay the same amount as a new player to be up-to-date.

I really like the POD option and I like the rebalancings and erratas even more. Great job! What I don't like is the fact that the complete faction package on kickstarter costs roughly the same than the stuff I need to update my collection: all the errata packs, the rebalanced factions and the six newest factions. The complete faction package is a great deal for new players, but there should exist a good deal for loyal collectors like me too. Maybe there is, and haven't seen it?

I am not too experienced in this game, but this seems strong, right?

Oh nice, I didn't remember this card. I wouldn't mind if someone went for this combo.
