Shandalar - Feature Requests

Add extra basic lands to initial owned cards (implemented)

 

When you start the game at the Wizard difficulty the initial land distribution severely impacts what's playable and what isn't. What tends to happen is that you get very little land for a non-primary color which you get a lot of cards for, while being stuck with 4-5 lands for a color which you get 3-4 cards with. It's no so much upping the difficulty as it is adding mandatory running around and chasing basic lands before you can even attempt to do anything with the cards you're given.

Simple solution would be to change the ammount of basic lands you get at the start, which would make whatever junk you get at least playable, no matter how junky it is. 8 of each basic land should do the trick, then you can decide what you want to go with from the rest of the chaff.

I don't think I agree, but it shouldn't be difficult at all to add a config option to add x number of each basic land type.
