Card Contributions

[friarsol]

Ok.. Here are a bunch of cards that I believe can be converted (although I might be lying)

Code: Select all

Telling Time (Two Digs, one Hand and Top Library, one Top Library and Bottom Library)

Cruel Ultimatum
Doomsday (Dig where X is the size of your library)
Flamebreak (noregen)

March of Souls (check out Fracturing Gust)
Phyrexian Rebirth
Overwhelming Forces
Amnesia
Invincible Hymn
Rite of Replication
Conqueror's Pledge
Traumatize
Acidic Soil
Nature's Resurgence
All Hallow's Eve

Decree of Justice
Biorhythm


Edit: March of Souls may not be possible, but I'm pretty sure the other DestroyAlls are. And Lurking Predators can't be quite done yet.

Huh. I completely missed the much improved Remembered implementation. Nice.

For Amnesia, something like this would work if cardsinhand.nonLand were possible. But we really need a DiscardAll here. This is hacky.

Code: Select all

Name:Amnesia
ManaCost:3 U U U
Types:Sorcery
Text:no text
A:SP$ RevealHand | Cost$ 3 U U U | ValidTgts$ Player | TgtPrompt$ Select target player | IsCurse$ True | SubAbility$ SVar=DBDiscard | SpellDescription$ Target player reveals his or her hand and discards all nonland cards.
SVar:DBDiscard:DB$Discard | Defined$ TargetedPlayer | DiscardValid$ Card.nonLand | NumCards$ X | Mode$ TgtChoose
SVar:X:TargetedPlayer$CardsInHand.nonLand

Make sure to add the Planeswalker parameter here too.

Who wants to try their hand at more Alliances cards? I know everyone loves to!

Code: Select all

Ashnod's Cylix
Burnout
Nature's Chosen tapXType<1/Creature.enchantedBy>?
Soldevi Excavations
Soldevi Heretic
Splintering Wind?
Thawing Glaciers (i think we might actually be able to do this with the DelayedTrigger DB)
Undergrowth (this might be a bit trickier to implement, the first "choice" is a simple fog. The second choice would be create an effect that lasts EOT that pumps non-red creatures with Prevent all combat damage that would be dealt by CARDNAME.)
Winter's Night

Is Mitotic Slime working in the svn version of Forge? The 1/1 tokens are not appearing for me in the May 19th release. If something isn't working with token SVars and triggers, then Splintering Wind can't quite be done yet.

I will look at these. Thanks for the list.

Sol, has Dig implemented targeting based on players, yet?

Think so. Check out Ransack.

Some card converts that would help (if they can be done), it's late so not all of these may not convert as easily as I'm imaging. Otherwise, these will take the long road of changing the hardcoding to use the modern target.

Code: Select all

Jugan, the Rising Star
Wings of Velis Vel
Berserk
Rite of Replication
Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle
Vendilion Clique (might be able to be done with ChangeZone)
Gatekeeper of Malakir
Infernal Kirin

Thawing Glaciers is interesting. To my knowledge, you can not perform a delayed trigger drawback. Since a delayed trigger must be inside another trigger, this can not be scripted now.

Ashnod's Cylix. The targeted player does not perform the Dig.

Splintering Winds: You can not currently assign cumulative upkeep to permanents.

A barebones AF_DelayedTrigger is in the current revision.You can only use it as a DB/Subability and the AI is probably pretty poor, but it's there. It's very much subject to change, but you can try it out and give suggestions if you'd like. Example script here.

Yes, Ashnod's Cylix and Splintering Winds are not scriptable at the moment. And I don't believe Burnout will work even with the Condition mechanic.

I was also pretty sure that Soldevi Heretic wasn't scriptable. I didn't know about OptionalDecider tech. Good work figuring it out Jeff.

[jeffwadsworth]

Ack! Man, you guys add so much new script functionality...haha. Thanks for the tip.

Cylix needs something like ChangeZone has where you inform the AF who the decider is. And it looks like there might need to be a bit more tweaking to get Burnout in. Oh well, sometimes cards look like they might be able to be done even if they can't be.

Here is working script for Valakut the Molten Pinnacle.

I removed the relevant code from my base...but the removal process was akin to butchery in my opinion. If someone with a more expert grasp of java can weed through it I would feel better about the addition. Thanks.
