The Original MTG Rulebook!
Posted: 07 Nov 2010, 14:59
When MTG 6th Edition was released, many of the core rules were changed from what had been since the days of Alpha/Beta, with those rules being solidified through 4th Edition.
With the posting of these puzzles being taken from that era, I thought it would be interesting for you to see a copy of the original Alpha/Beta rulebook that WotC posted at their site on Christmas Day, 2004. And who is featured on the cover of said rulebook? Well you'll see none other than my, uhmm, smiling, err...face? Yep, that's right, the original Bog Wraith, masterfully created by Jeff Menges! This card was the artwork that captured me & cemented my love for this game. It remains to this day, my favourite piece of art not only from the game, but of any creation done by an artist!
So here you go folks. A trip down memory lane for allot of us, and a cool look at the origins of the game for you players who are newer to the game.
