Don't know if this is only for
Thorn-Thrash Viashino or applies for all Devour mechanics but, for the mentioned card, it only allows me to devour one creature and then goes into a stack and that is it.
My previous experiences with the mechanic on earlier versions of Forge has seen it correctly implemented. It may just be isolated to that particular card.
No significant slow-down of play so far v/s previous versions and for that I thank you profusely. I think the slow-down issue is the biggest one concerning this program and I applaud you for your attempts and resolving it head-on. Thanks.
Edit:
Correction... I just experienced a slow down in the program not from waiting on spells to resolve onto a stack, like with previous versions, but rather from transitions between phases which wasn't a problem before. I don't use HQ pictures and the problem, when it occurs, not only persists through different rounds against a particular opponent but also when I move on to a different opponent. However, when I shut the program down completely and restart it the slow-down goes away. I am playing the game in quest mode when this happens so I can't speak to other modes.
My operating system is Vista 64. My computer is a quad-core computer processing unit with dual 8800's in Scalable Link Interface(S.L.I.) mode. I run iTunes in the background when I play the game because the lack of audio feedback from the game makes me drowsy otherwise.
Edit:
Alright, I played some more and have come to find that the slow-down issue, while different from before, appears consistently enough as to make the program too frustrating to play longer than say, two or three games at a time before having to quit out completely which, for me, makes it too much trouble to deal with more than on a very limited basis.
Best of luck in tracking down this issue as I think that it makes or breaks what is otherwise an excellent program.
