Title: From the Board Room – Forged in Fire’s Box

Video and article about what's in the FiF box.

Disable markers state "Remove 1 each Reset phase". Still not sure what they do though?

Sardonyx card is visible. Looks like he costs 24 mana. He has 3 attacks! A quick action melee, a full action melee, and what looks like a full action ranged, poison zone attack.

My video quality is terrible so I couldn't make out much else, even on HD. If anything was wrong, or if you were able to pick out more stuff, feel free to correct me!

Overall, pretty cool box though. Seems better than the CoK box.

This box is light years ahead of the CoK box.

I can see the Bone Dragon! Sardonyx?
the top pile in the unboxing. he has two 5 dice attacks(piercing+1-2 and sweeping), a 2 dice zone poison attack which can cause rot on 8+, 1(or 3, but that wouldnt make sense if he is skeletal) armor, and like 23hp, costing 24 mana

edit: looks like on enchantment that starts with AK, so i'm  guessing akiros fortune promo. Also a creature starting with TAL or TAK or something, EDIT but it costs 28 mana!

The box almost looks too good. I can't believe they managed to keep the cost down so low. What kind of sorcery is this?

when you make the next print run of CoK are you going to redesign that box to match this one?

He didnt look like to be certain of the infos. Also, what are the traits and special text?

I'm gonna assume Nonliving, Legendary, Psychic Immunity and maybe something else. I don't think he's flying.

Wish I could say .....

Well the first two I'm just assuming cause that's pretty standard for Skeletons and then a creature that has a specific name and is this powerful is obviously either Legendary or Epic. I'm assuming Legendary. No reason for him to be epic. The video looks like he has another trait though, and I have no idea what it could be.

If he has 20 something health, as was suggested before (I can't make it out at all, so I can't really tell), then there's no way he's flying cause it'd be OP. Adramelech is flying but only has 14 health and still costs 24 mana.

Also can't tell if there is special text underneath that or if it's just flavor text. I'm gonna guess flavor cause he seems good enough already with his 3 attacks, but hopefully we'll get to see soon ;)

Edit: I also noticed a glimpse of a creature card that starts with "Ta" and looks like it costs 20 something (28?) mana?! Umm maybe I'm wrong, cause that's pretty crazy expensive.

Well, Sardonyx is supposed to be he flying creature of the necromancer. Maybe like Vampiress you pay mana to make it fly.

Don't forget we are supposed to get a Lava Elemental in this expansion. Might be the other costy creature.

Or, they could just, you know, let us buy the set early.  ;)

They had me at the Harshforge Plate, anyway.   They didn't have to throw in a dracolich. 

Aw who am I kidding, they had me upon announcing they had another product soon to be for sale.

Just one word regarding the new box. Awesome!!!

Thank you so much Arcane Wonders. Great products, great customer service. And it is getting better and better. It is unbelievable. It must be a dream.

I won the FiF set in one of the two draws.  They could send it to me early as a show of good publicity. Street dates only applying if you are buying it right?

I hope they do that too lol but I doubt it. I was lucky enough to win the other one. On my birthday too :D

I'm really glad everyone is enjoying the video showcasing the new box, it's pretty sweet if I do say so myself.  That said, we "may" have intentionally left Sardonyx sideways and slightly blurred as to not completely spoil him... or her... or whatever a "blight of the living" really is :)

I can say this, Sardonyx is a beast, literally!  But one so powerful does not come to do a mage's bidding lightly :)

PS - Good idea on the CoK box if we reprint it... no promises but you never know.

Hmm, is it possible, that Sardonxy had so much health because he is

a) restrained in meaing of taking actions every turn (disable?)

b) he will vanish after some time

c) has a great upkeep cost

i still trying to get a grasp on his stats and still not able to accept them. He sure is a "meat tank"...

d)
He is undead, thus little to no armor. And with a steep mana cost he needs some survivabitly in terms of high HP.

Yeah, you are right, maybe i am overthinking this one :)
