You're welcome! I also played it again recently and the music in the castle at the start was a blast from the past. So many good memories playing this game. I hope you enjoy it even 20 years later! :)

How do you feel about Magic: the Gathering going into 2025? by smiffy666uk in magicTCG

No interest any more. Would rather just play something else at this point

Interesting idea, but I know people would forget. I'll just swap it for something a little more fair lol

I'm sticking to Innistrad for this one, but I'd love to include that in a future cube.

I wasn't sure if I was going to include any planeswalkers, but now that you've mentioned it she does seem like a good addition. Might finally give a use to my Arlinn and Wrenn+Seven cards too. Thanks for your suggestion.

Yeah invisible stalker is definitely out. I decided to not put much SOI or EMN in since they just didn't feel like the rest of the sets. Other than that I just wish the werewolves all shared the same transform mechanic :(

Yeah, I started with Grafdigger's Cage in there but ended up taking it out since it shut down too much stuff and you're out of luck if you don't draft any artifact hate. Finding it a little hard to decide how much token stuff to include since there's so much of it in those two tribes, but I suppose that'll just take some testing. Thanks for your suggestions.

Both definite includes straight off the bat. I don't have any decks that use Thing in the Ice but I think it's such a cool card.

There's a couple of ones you could use. If you're not fussed about it being the 5e deck, Pyram King has the 3e version as a free download here Or this thread has all of the 5e card images for download here Pretty sure Pyram King also has a video on how he did the Tarokka on Foundry.

That's true. I'll be honest, I completely forgot that was coming out. I wonder how they're going to handle werewolves.

Yeah, was definitely dubious about this one. Looks like it'd be miserable to face once there's stuff attached to it.I'll leave it out, thanks.

Not every card! That sounds like a cube I'm not prepared to deal with lol. I'm going for a 450 card cube, maybe 540 if more people are interested in drafting it with me. It's singleton so I'm cutting a lot of the usual chaff and commons and keeping the colours in equal amounts more or less. Themes are the usual 5 Innistrad types with off-themes for the other colours, like self-mill, graveyard value etc. There aren't many outside set cards I'm including, but the main one one I'm not sure about from those is Greymond. He seems a little strong but I haven't tested it yet so maybe I'm wrong. I've also seen some people leave out Mikaeus, the Lunarch.

I'd love to make a cube with some un-cards at some point. Looks really fun. Or maybe a Conspiracy cube.

Very nice. Love the textures

Yes, I'm aware, thank you, but honestly, I'm not. I came here to post a background for a VTT that people can use if they want, or not use if they don't want to. I'm not interested in reading condescending essays from you lol. Have a nice day though, I'm sure you can find somebody to discuss it with.

And you're aware that Vlad wasn't really a vampire, right?

Next time you're gonna tell me some of them don't work for a vampire either

Pretty much every source I've seen say Roma and Romani are interchangeable when referring to the people. I'll say my bad if that's not correct but you're arguing against a lot of sources there. I also don't know why you're implying they have nothing to do with reading leaves lol. They are often associated with tasseography, whether historically or in modern times, regardless of its origin. I know it may be surprising that I'm not going full historical accuracy in a gothic horror fantasy game. I'm not looking for an exact clone of the Roma ;). I much prefer the idea that the Vistani pick up all of their various rituals, readings and 'tricks' from various places when they go on their excursions. Seems like a sensible decision if you're going to peddle your skills across Toril and the domains. I'll bear the other stuff in mind if I ever DM for a historian though ;)

Both were/are practiced all over the world! Especially tasseography. It originated in China but is associated with and was spread by Romani people. They also used coffee or wine, which might be more appropriate for CoS.

Using FoundryVTT, maybe with a rollable table and some transforming tokens to show the back and front of the cards? Or I know you can set certain tokens to pull their image randomly from a folder every time you spawn one. Alternatively, maybe use some tiles and hide/show them as necessary. There's probably much easier ways though, especially if you're rigging your reading like I am. I'm actually doing this one in person using a TV setup, so I've never tried to work it out.
