Collectible Card Game Headquarters

With Embersmith in play, casting artifacts does not use the stack. This means that the triggered ability never appears, but (AFAIK) the artifacts cannot be countered or Vensered.

Also, War Report is not calculating the lifegain correctly. It should count artifact creatures 'twice', once for each type.

Oh, and the new Drafting is AWESOME. Just FYI.

Here's a crash that I experienced when the AI apparently tried to make use of Pestilence that it played the turn before:

It was still possible to continue the game after clicking "Close" in the exception window.

Forge doesn't let me destroy a permanent as I cast Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre

I have a Nirkana Cutthroat and AI a Linvala, Keeper of Silence in play. forge let me use Level Up ability of Nirkana (702.84a Level up is an activated ability)

Flourishing Defenses is not triggering when -1/-1 counters are placed on creatures via Proliferate.

Oh, wait, it does, it just delays it. A rather odd bug.

Yep, level up was doing things it shouldn't have been (and probably has been doing that since it was originally written up. Should be fixed now.

This is baggage that came with being able to choose the order of triggered abilities. There may be other times where triggers arrive late to the party, might want to keep an eye out for those. I fixed this one for now,though.

Piling on the multiple target ability bug:

Stonecloaker has error for both of its targeted abilities and ends up removing up to two cards from the graveyard and never returns a creature to my hand.
Stormfront Riders does not produce any tokens (I don't remember if any creatures were actually returned to the computer's hand when it cast the Stormfront Riders).

Questionable AI behavior:

AI casts Wistful Thinking on itself (and it's not like it was playing with Madness, Threshold, or Hellbent).

Quest Pets/Bazaar problem:

The Bazaar says that you do not own a pet even after clicking on the Buy button. Actual effect is that you can continue to upgrade it for the initial purchase price.
For some reason, the Hound stays purchased (and upgraded), even after starting a new quest; however, you cannot summon it until you upgrade it again (at the appropriate upgrade price).

Can we no longer continue our quests from earlier releases? When I try to continue the Quest using my quest file from the previous beta I get:

Code: Select all

This doesn't sound like a multiple target bug to me. Firstly, only one of the abilities is targeted. And secondly, different SpellAbilities (in general) shouldn't interfere with each others Targets. Instead it sounds like the triggers aren't scripted as Mandatory, so the AI is choosing not to adhere to them.

Exactly. Mandatory was missing. Fixed!

there are some occasions on which the program decides that it won't let me play lands anymore for the rest of the game. not sure what sets it off, but does seem to happen every once in a while at random

When my opponent played a Fledgling Mawcor face down, I could see what card it was while on the stack.
Lignify still isn't implemented properly.

Something strange just happened.

I use Metalworker and reveal 4 artifacts giving me 8 mana. I use this mana to cast Arcbound Overseer. Next i cast Arcbound Bruiser. Now i want to cast Arcbound Lancer, but when i click on this card i can not cast it. Forge does not ask me to tap mana for it. I can still cast the other card in my hand, Throne of Geth. I have Urza's Tower, Mine and Power Plant in play plus Gaea's Cradle and Tolarian Academy, so more than enough mana.

After winning round 1, i can cast the Arcbound Lancer again in round 2. I draw another Arcbound Lancer, activate Metalworker again, and i can't cast it anymore. All other cards i draw can be cast normally.


After winning round 2 the menu where you can select continue, quit or restart displayed on screen, but also the stack window askes me which spell or ability to put on the stack. This being triggered by Arcbound Slith


Computer pays 4 every turn for Goblin Dirigible when it's not tapped.

Spreading Seas does turn other lands into islands, but it doesn't 'remove' it's old abilities like it should. I cast Spreading Seas on a Sejiri Steppe, for example, and it could still tap for W.

Computer enchanted my creature with Sleeping Potion. After it was removed my creature is still enchanted by Sleeping Potion and does not untap.
