Question!

Do the uncommon and rare penalties come into effect the moment you put a fighter on the bench, or only when they become active?

Example: Say it's my first turn and I draw a common fighter and an uncommon fighter. I place the common as my active and the uncommon to the bench. Would the effect kick in, and I wouldn't be able to attach energy to my common...? Or would that penalty only occur on the turn that my uncommon fighter becomes active?

I do think it happens right after the card in question is played, regardless of where it's placed.

*has been looking at the Fablequest expansion pack* I have a question about Calin's special ability. Are there any restrictions on the use of Heroic Sacrifice? As it's worded now, it seems like Calin could use it to just soak up every attack the other active uses without flinching. Is it meant to be kind of like Self Sacrifice?

I assued he'd take the damage, and of course, once he's KO'd he isn't so useful as a meat shield anymore. xD

*looks at it again* Oh, so it's supposed to be something used from the bench? That might be a bit more clear, then.

Just a note about poison.

Killix asked about it a while back (page 4 I think) but I never answered her properly, though it seems I appeared to endorse someone else's answer. What I actually said was to confirm that poison takes effect during the end turn phase of play, after everything else, but I never said whether it was each turn or each round.

I'll confirm now that it is each round. The person whose fighter is poisoned is the one who should deduct the damage and the player who inflicted the poison shouldn't.

That said, I'm never closed to adjusting the rules if anyone wants to contest them. ^_^

[Scar]

Just as a FYI, Sarn won't be around for a week so I'll be handling the TCG affairs for a while. If you have any questions and such feel free to PM me or post them here. I'll check the thread as often as I can. Thanks

[Scar]

After lengthy discussions with certain forumers, we've all decided that, in order for the TCG to be successful, the card list needs some modifications. These will be done over a period of time and Sarn will not edit the card list thread until all modifications are finalized and agreed upon.

You may continue to play with the current card list and we will let you know when the new card list replaces the old. If a card or cards in your deck has been modified or deleted and you no longer wish to use it, you may select another card of the same rarity to replace it.

Please be assured that we will make every effort to minimize the modifications and that those that are made are in the interests of a better, more stable TCG.

Thank you,
The TCG Team

Question about Times Regular! =D

Times Regular has the attack "(*)(*) NT Star Avvie Cheer - Roll a die. If odd, 2 damage. If even, 3 damage. Heal 2 HP." Does the healing apply whenever the attack is used, or only if even is rolled?

[Scar]

Card List Modifications

Thank you all for your patience. The card list has been overhauled and Sarn has modified it to include the changes we have made. Please remember that we did our best to minimize the modifications so as not to disrupt the decks and/or strategies of individual players. Those changes that were made were done so in order to create a more stable and canon card list, and to make it much easier for Hunty to complete the card art as a whole.

Please also be aware that card reation is now closed until all the current cards have card art, at which time card creation will re-open. Look for Sarn's post when the time comes. You may also need to wait before purchasing booster packs to give Jina some time to update Cardland Superstore.

Modifications

The following cards have been deleted from the card list. If you owned one of them, whether you used it in your deck or not, you may replace it with another card of the same type (fighter, event) and rarity. Cards with art were given priority, but some with art have still been removed and we apologize for this.

To my knowledge, healing isn't affected by variable damage. ^^ Go ahead and heal yourself.

Also, regarding the card list mods, finish your duels and create your new deck if you're interested in the Visitation event. Also, if you have any questions about the card list mods, me and Scar are open to being PMed about it. Please don't PM Hunty, Rider or Strife, they're very busy and kindly took the time to help us out.

Ouch... my favourite card was cut.

I'm not sure that I want to continue playing...
I'll have to think about it some more, and make the adjustments to my deck.

Well, don't be too quick about it. There's leeway for some of those cards to get back in again. See, most were cut because of canonicity issues, but if your favorite card was adjusted to be more forum-related, it is possible to include it once everything else is sorted out. ^^

The five of us tried hard to keep as many cards as possible. D: I'm sad we had to cut Weewood.

[Draco]

Poop, one of my cards died. It was almost two, but I decided to not put Ninja Bowgirl in my starter deck XD I will miss my little Nightmare Creature though...

*goes through cards to see what to replace it with*

Come to think of it, in two weeks I won't even be here ;_;

And just remembered I had 2 Nightmare Creatures in my deck XD

Edit: Just looked at the cards I got from my booster pack a while ago. 3 cards are on the list XD 2 Old Knights and Uber-Generic Card.

[Vyt: Down, but Not Out]

Oh wow. Five cards in that list are in my deck. And I thought I wasn't totally abusing them!

... I still have that battle with Celestial, though. I'm not sure I'll be able to continue that with these changes. I am officially confused.

And you might want to actually list out all the cards that have been modified, for clarification.
