It looks good to me (haven't tested it yet but if you say it works then things should be alright) ! There's a few few small things though:

1. "sacrifice" instead of "sacrafice", also try to use the latest Oracle text (I always use http://magiccards.info)
2. The way we usually represent text for abilities, is to specify them in a "ability.setDescription(text);" statement. This is to make sure the ability's text will show up correctly in the selection dialog box if the card has multiple abilities. Check out the Planeswalkers for instance, they have "no text" defined in cards.txt, but all of their respective abilities are defined in CardFactory_Planeswalkers.java with setDescription() methods. In the case of Sneak Attack, your cards.txt would look like this:

Code: Select all

Sneak Attack
3 R
Enchantment
no text

and in the code block CardFactory.java:

Code: Select all

     //command and ability code above
     ....
     ability.setDescription("R: You may put a creature card from your hand onto the battlefield. That creature gains haste. Sacrifice the creature at the beginning of the next end       step.");
     card.addSpellAbility(ability);
    }//*************** END ************ END **************************SNEAK ATTACK

3. Yes, use AllZone.GameAction.sacrifice() instead of ga = new GameAction...
4. Use addExtrinsicKeyword("Haste") instead of addIntrinsicKeyword("Haste")
