Sloth did the hard work and added the LifeLostThisTurn feature and Children of Korlis last night and I added the rest of the cards that I culd see that use it. So we now also have Bloodchief Ascension, Luminarch Ascension, Wound Reflection, Tainted Sigil and Sygg, River Cutthroat. check next daily build.

YAYAYAYAYAY! Thank you very much, I can't wait to abuse these cards!

I searched but didn't see anybody else post this, although I could have missed it. (I am very new to the forum.)

I scripted Urge To Feed and tested it last night. I had noticed people commenting on how it wasn't possible to script in the part about testing tapping any number of vampires. Strangely, I had no problems doing it? Unless I missed something, it's working flawlessly. I almost feel like there has to be something I didn't test, but who knows. Take a look:

End

Of course you'll need to add the file in the correct place, add the correct JPEG's, etc.

The problem with Urge to Feed these days is not targeting any number of vampires, its the 'if you do' clause. In your script if another spell taps one of your targets while Urge to Feed is still on the stack, that creature will still get a +1/+1 counter.

writing to request Protean Hulk, Windbrisk Heights, and Duplicant.
big ups

Well those Vampires aren't even targeted. It would really need "TapUpTo" like what Great Whale uses to Untap lands. If that existed, it would be pretty straightforward (since the tapping/remembering would happen during resolution).

Is there a chance of some Dark Ascension cards being implemented before the prerelease/launch party? I can't remember the usual practice for new sets, but I'd love to see Faithless Looting and Havengul Lich!

The set won't be put into a release until the image and oracle data is available. A script for Faithless Looting without this information is available in this thread http://www.slightlymagic.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=5804. Havengul Lich is not currently scriptable because copying abilities is not supported.

The Lorwyn Land Cycle (Windbrisk Heights, etc.)

I've messed around with scripting some custom cards, and I basically get the general idea of it. Once I find a way to make it for certain possible in Forge, I'll see if any programmers want to help. =p

Care to share? I have given Chaos Orb some consideration recently. And I understand the new UI just enough to be dangerous.

-slapshot5

I'd have to admit, this problem (Chaos Orb) wasn't in mind during the design

Is Eureka doable?

Is Grafdigger's Cage from Dark Ascension will be doable?
I see a great combo with Undead Alchemist, and this card can be used in controls and millings (your opponent) decks too.

About Zedruu the Greathearted and Bazaar Trader. These will be doable?

I see a great combo with Ravenous Demon // Archdemon of Greed (Dark Ascension) and Bronze Bombshell.


Thanks

I'd love if Runic Repetition was added. It is a very key card in triple ISD draft for the Spider Spawning deck (allowing a crazy loop with Memory's Journey).

Forge isn't fantastic at drafting, but it is good at letting you practice picking up the pieces for this sort of bizarre deck and seeing how it plays, so it would help the utility a lot.

It looks like Runic Repetition has been in since September. It has RemRandomDeck in its script though which is probably why it doesn't appear in draft. (RemRandomDeck is added by the devs to cards that are too specialised to appear in randomly generated decks although I'm not sure if they're meant to be removed from draft as well). You can just remove the line from the script in your local copy.

I don't think the Draft is affected by RemRandomDeck, it should only be removed from Randomly Generated Decks.
