Forge Beta: 09-27-2013 ver 1.5.0
13316 cards in total.
Release Notes
- Commander -
The Commander gaming mode has been added and is located in the Variant view. This is a work in progress and is not finished at this time. You are invited to play test this variant.
- Switch Theme/Skin Without Restart -
You can now switch between themes/skins from any screen without restarting, using either Layout > Theme on main menu or combo box on Preferences page of Home screen
- Card Overlays -
Card overlays can be switched on/off during a match via the Game menu. Added new card id overlay. Overlays are now always displayed regardless of card image size (if switched on).
- Theros cards -
Forge now includes most of the new Theros cards. It may take a few days before these new card pictures become available for downloading via the "Download LQ Card Pictures" button. The LQ set pictures tend to take a few more weeks to process before they become available for downloading via the "Download LQ Set Pictures" button. Please be patient.
- Forge now requires Java 7 -
Please update your Java runtime environment. At this point Forge versions 1.4.2 and above will no longer run under Java 6. Those who are using Mac OS should install the JDK version rather than the JRE version.
- The Mac OS X application -
At this time Forge now requires Java 7 and will no longer run under Java 6.
Unfortunately, the Mac OS X builder that we were using does not support Java 7. We hope to find and to use a different Mac OS X builder in order to continue releasing a Mac OS bundled application like we have in the past.
Currently, the windows/unix release of Forge includes a launcher file named "forge.command". Double click on the "forge.command" launcher command file and this will in turn launch the Forge jar file via the terminal application while increasing the Java heap space. This should be a temporary inconvenience.

As people added new cards I would open a browser tab which contained the card script for the new cards. I would then do a copy and paste of the card name. It is possible that I selected the wrong text for one of the cards.

Hey, two random things: One, there is no option for Pauper EDH, as it does not let you chose uncommon nonlegends for a commander. Not a huge thing, but some of the pauper EDH players would like that, myself included. Not sure how many others use forge, but I know at least two other people who would like it.
Two, what are the chances of a random deck builder for the EDH section? Something like chose a general, and it generates an EDH deck for it. Also not a huge issue, just a question.
Thanks a lot for the work put into this, though, I have been wanting EDH to be in Forge for a long time!
Edit: I am an idiot, lol, I forgot that PDH also has 30 life to start instead of 30, and 16 general damage. Maybe just add options for that stuff?

Commander mulliganing works differently.gos wrote:I can't mulligan in Commander, only the option to Keep is active.
Partial Paris Mulligan rule
Because Commander games are long and usually not played in multigame matches, the format uses a modified mulligan rule designed to alleviate mana-light hands without significantly increasing the odds of finding individual cards. This is also known as the "Brittany" mulligan rule.
In turn order, players may exile (face down) some or all of the cards in their hand.
Each player then draws one less card from their deck than the number they exiled.
Players who exiled at least one card may return to step 1 and repeat the process, drawing one less card each time.
Players shuffle all exiled cards into their deck.
It is worth noting that even with this form of mulligan, decks playing an insufficient number of mana sources will routinely draw poor hands or insufficient mana as the game progresses.

When the computer tries to block one of my creatures with trample, the game crashes. Only way to quit is by terminating the program through the task manager. Happened 3 games in a row with different creatures. 2 of them had trample, one of them got it from the ability of another card.

I'm not sure if this bug is new or has been around for a while, but Whirlpool Warrior's effect draws you twice as many cards as were in your hand, not the same number. Needless to say, this makes it absurdy overpowered.
I think it might be a larger glitch with effects that count how many cards have been affected by it- they count each card twice. Honor the fallen appears to gain 2 life per exiled creature, and a few others that I can't remember.

This is also happening with Corrupt.Mageta the Lion wrote:AI fizzles Rage of Purphoros by playing it without a target.
Also, some constructed games are stopping dead in my opponents second main phase. I still dont know what is exactly triggering it, because it can happen on first turn as also on 7th turn.
