Collectible Card Game Headquarters

Thanks. Any word on cards like Root Sliver, Gaea's Herald, Leyline of the Lifeforce?

I'm pretty sure that they are not functional with the old keyword. I think I will make a seperate keyword for them like:

Code: Select all

K:Spells can't be countered Creature:Creature spells can't be countered.

There's no way to Statically Grant them to SAs on the Stack?

Yes of course, i will think about a good implementation.

I implemented this restriction more generally. Mul Daya Channelers can also be converted now.

Do you have a sample card? Hero of Oxid Ridge is another.

Urgh, wrong quote. Mul Daya Channelers should mimic Vampire Nocturnus.

The card works, but the description on the stack is nutball. Is there a way to give an altenate stack description here?

Would something like this require an overwrite similar to what Animate does?

It doesn't overwrite the existing Equip ability, just grants a new Equip ability (that's free)

I didn't create StaticEffects.java. It was used for hardcoded static effects like Mul Daya Channelers. You can just remove everything related to cards you convert to script.

Ok. I know people get cranky when someone starts fooling around with their work. Just checking.

When a creature is put into the battlefield tapped and attacking, it does not show up in the game info window as attacking. Ideas? Yore-Tiller Nephilim is similar, but uses ValidTgts$ due to it pulling from the graveyard.

Does it have the attacking icon? It might just be the Combat Window isn't refreshing properly.

No damage is done by the chosen creature...only by the Kaalia of the Vast.
