During a very close and tense game against a Priest, my opponent used his Holy avenger [mwcard=MWSTX1CKC06]Guardian Angel[/mwcard] to do some nasty 5-dice damage to my mage.  After the attack he immediately used his Mage's quickcast action to cast [mwcard=MWSTX2FFI06]Defend[/mwcard] on the Guardian angel.  After my appreciation of such a nice play, I noticed that he had also removed two of the damage markers on the Guardian angel.  What followed was a discussion on whether the Defend spell should trigger the Guardian angel's heal.

The exact text on the card is "when Guardian Angel chooses the guard action, she may heal up to 2 points of damage from herself".  I argued that this wording implies that the heal will only trigger if the Guardian Angel uses her own action to guard and that this heal will not trigger from having the Defend spell cast upon her.  My opponent however argued that he had read that as "whenever the Guardian Angel goes on guard, heal 2 health".  Whilst this rule interpretation didn't make much of a difference on the outcome of the match, it would be great to get a clarification here.

Firstly, thank you guys for making a great game.  I'm still pretty new but I very much enjoy Mage Wars and I look forward to seeing it grow as a game.

For a game as large as Mage Wars there will always be a few times when the rules need to re-worked slightly to ensure that the game stays balanced and that certain strategies can't be abused.  Toward's this end, Arcane Wonders has previously issued a few card errata (Battle Fury, Hand of Bim Shalla, and Temple of Light).  I've generally agreed with the rule changes and I've been very thankful that they have provided high resolution copies of the new cards (they can be found >>here<<).  Having high resolution versions of the errata'd cards means that I can print out the new cards onto vinyl stickers and stick the updated rules over the old rules on he card.  This means I can keep the current rules on the cards in my deck without the need for ugly proxies (or having to have a list of card to remember to look up the new rules for).

In addition to these larger errata there have been a few very small changes made to some cards between different printings of the game.  One example is the text correction for Malacoda, which makes his zone damage of a poison type.  Another example is the updated text for Idol of Pestilence (again to change the damage type to poison).  Now the FAQ has a pretty extensive list of these 'mini-errata' but currently I can't find any downloadable high-resolution copies to replace the face of my old-printing versions of these cards.  Are these resources available somewhere?  If anyone knows of any then I'd be most grateful if they could post the links here.  I'd be particularly interested in getting a copy of image for the newly updated rules on the Garrison Post.

I think in general it'd be great to have a list of errata's cards (even ones that have just had a minor change such as the mana subtype being added to the moonglow amulet) in one place with links to high-res images for them.  That way everyone could update their cards easily and avoid situations where players may argue which is the most up-to-date printing of the card.
