Collectible Card Game Headquarters

Rob, I can update my set editor if you tell me the format that you need. I understand that migrating Forge to use sets is a big task because it has so many independent parts.

The draftable card set is still in the draft folder with common, uncommon and rare text files.

Implementing "drafting by set" will be down the road a bit, after all the various screens can deal with remembering the set a card is supposed to be between games and sessions, then loading the right pictures.

In a way, I guess "draft by set" doesn't have to be entirely different than a custom draft.... This is formulating in my mind right now.

Let's say we use a single file to define a draft pool. The file can contain a reference to include an entire set.
So to draft Alara block:

Code: Select all

DraftFormat: Legal Sets
DraftName: Alara block - Shards of Alara, Conflux, Alara Reborn

[Sets]
ALA
CON
ARB
[/Sets]


A custom draft pool that follows normal pack distribution:

Code: Select all

DraftFormat: Custom
DraftName: John Doe's Favorite Cards

[Common]
Aftershock
Aggressive Urge
Akki Drillmaster
...
[/Common]

[Uncommon]
Abbey Gargoyles
Abyssal Specter
Air Elemental
...
[/Uncommon]

[Rare]
Acid Rain
Akroma, Angel of Wrath
Aladdin's Ring
...
[/Rare]


A cube draft generally just picks 15 random cards, with no replacement. Once a card is placed in a pack it can't show up in any other pack.

Code: Select all

DraftFormat: Cube
DraftName:Evan Erwin's Cube

[Cards]
Ajani Goldmane
Akroma’s Vengeance
Armageddon
Arrest
Austere Command
Balance
Cataclysm
Condemn
Conquerer’s Pledge
Day of Judgment
Decree of Justice
Disenchant
Elspeth, Knight-Errant
Enlightened Tutor
Faith’s Fetters
Griffin Guide
Gideon Jura
Hallowed Burial
Honor of the Pure
Land Tax
...
[/Cards]


I think I can do that. I'm not online much so I'm a little bit slow to respond sometimes.
