[Chris H.]

How about a sticky that would state the following:

I updated the topic "Download the Newest Version and What is Forge? " Feel free to post updates and other stuff. I'll update my first post or huggybaby can do it if he wants to because I'm online sporadically.

I didn't want to create another sticky topic so I just added "Download the Newest Version" to the "What is Forge?" topic.

The only changes that I made for his version of forge is: added exe file, added doc directory, added decks from prevous version as well as the two minor updates by Chris H.
-Chris H. quest deck updates Boris Karloff 3.dck and quest12.dck
-Chris H. all rarity files for quest, so all of the cards in Forge are available in the quest mode

I spent way too long making that update, an hour at least.

Cool, thanks rares. 'Twould be best if Dennis or Chris could keep those links updated. I could give them access, just say the word.

i think we're forgetting that there's a wiki... all the stickies make the forum much harder to browse, but I realise that it's easy to oversee it... what about a "FAQ" or "The answer to all your questions", just pointing to the wiki?

The game would be much better if the AI used instants more effectively. Use them during combat or occasionally on my turn. Counter spells are fun to play around and Lightning Bolt is way better than the AI is playing it right now.

Right now I never have to worry about combat going wrong when I play against the AI. Which in my opinion this makes the games less interesting.

[mtgrares]

Yes, you should be fearful of combat occansionally.
