Collectible Card Game Headquarters

Hey folks,

If you haven't quite noticed there's been a few spoilers popping up, and officially released spoilers should start showing up regularly as the new year starts. Since RtR release went really well from a Forge perspective I'd recommend we keep with that.

Spoiler site: http://www.mtgsalvation.com/gatecrash-spoiler.html
Forge Claimed: http://www.slightlymagic.net/wiki/Forge_Upcoming

The rules are:
1) Claim cards that you want to script on the claimed site above. Please don't claim more than a handful at a time, tis the season to not be greedy. Closer to the end of the release, this restriction will be lifted so we can get as many cards in as possible and with the most eyes on them before the appropriate Forge Release.
2) Script cards away, ask any related questions on this thread.
3) Post card text files to the Gatecrash branch (obviously after it's created).
4) Have fun!
5) Hopefully hit 100% before the set is released (http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/attachme ... 1353145146 might be the biggest hurdle to that)

Stickied this topic.

Oh hi, GDS2 table scraps, didn't expect to see you so soon and so pristine.

(Evolve was created as it is now almost word for word by a Great Designer Search 2 finalist. Was it Ethan Fleischer?)

4) Have fun!

What if it's a REALLY difficult to script card that keeps getting the better of you? Looking forward to the set!

Ethan is in fact on the design team for Gatecrash. Kinda cool.

Aurelia, the Warleader is really difficult. I've added it to “Not Quite Working” part. Hopefully someone figures out how to solve this "adding phase" problem.
BTW, could someone create a branch for GTC cards?

Aurelia's effect reminds me a bit of Relentless Assault from Visions.

Yea it's very similar. I've been eyeing Finest Hour to try to convert it for a bit, maybe when I figure out the trigger timing stuff I'm working on, I'll see if I can figure out Additional Phases as an AF.

I've tested these cards:

This might be easier to convert than I thought, everyone keep their fingers crossed.

*crosses fingers*
I saw the commit and am slightly concerned. Specifically, AFAIK we don't differentiate between phases and steps which could cause an extra phase to be added after a step in the middle of another phase, say Declare Blockers if an instant phase-adder is played or things like Aurelia trigger.

Yea I know, that's why the AfterPhase parameter exists, I'll put some extra checks in there for things that will use the conditional when AfterPhase would use "this phase" to make sure it sets it to the last step of the current phase.

Wow, Cipher is ridiculous, but shouldn't be terrible to code up. We just need a new "imprint" mechanic, and then Animate a triggered ability onto the target creature.
