If you want to have land grouping like in the screenshot below(predefined lands, in this example zendikar forest art by john avon)



you need to declare <LAND_GROUP value="[unique id]">

example is my titan ramp deck as of SVN r34 (I use 9 as a unique id value).

Ok, it's working for one basic land, but i made 4 mirage swamps, and the AI just play one of them. I have tried with the four in the same land group and with a different land group for each of them. Now i don't know what to do.

I'm going to try this method in order to make a Coldsnap deck, with "Snow-Covered" basic lands. I'll let you know the results once I'm done.

EDIT: It works perfectly!
I made a WAD that contains the 5 basic snow lands from Coldsnap.
If you want to make a "snow deck", you just have to use a copy of DECK_BASIC_SNOW_LAND_POOL.XML that you find inside the WAD as land pool for your deck (remember to rename the copy according to your deck name and change its ID), then add

Code: Select all

<LAND_GROUP value="1999899" />

in your deck list. And, of course, keep the WAD installed.

EDIT 2: I understood the problem about custom lands. Generally the AI gets bugged if a deck contains more than 15 copies of the same identical card, that's why encounters have copies of the same card with different name and ID. Just make at least 1 more copy of each land and you'll be set. Take example from the version 2 of my WAD.

EDIT 3: Now the WAD has the illustrations for plains and swamp enhanced by luh-koala.
