Forge Magic the gathering rules

by **Jessica** » 07 Feb 2019, 18:24

Hi,

I'm new to Forge. I started playing Magic in 1994 when playing for anté, mana burn and "interrupt" cards were all part of the rules.

Now after many years, I started playing Magic again when I discovered Forge. I saw Wizards of the Coast changed the rules a bit.

My question is: can I use Forge to play magic like in the old days (with old rules, as I told above) or can Forge only be used to play with the current (newest) rules of Magic? Can I still use interrupt cards in Forge too?

thx in advance
Jessica

Forge does support some of the old rules (ante, mana burn), but for the most part we only support the latest versions of all the rules. Interrupt rules were changed in 6th edition (20 years ago!) Forge is old, but not that old. Trust me, I played back then. Batches and interrupt windows, and regeneration windows were all terrible.

Hi,

So interrupt cards can't be used in Forge or am I wrong? Or how are those cards used in modern Magic rules or in Forge?

I found the ante and mana burn options!

They were all changed to instants -- they are still usable.
