Hi everyone,
I had looked into the game before but after playing a demo at BASHcon this weekend, decided to buy.
I basically bought one of everything:
Core set, both Spell tomes, Druid vs Necro, Forcemaster vs warlord, and Kumanjaro. and a couple of the extra spellbooks to basically have a book for each of the mages.
So I went through and built all the standard books to work as a starting point.
The problem is even with the extra spell tomes and all the cards in the set, you can't build the 10 sets in the instructions.
You can build 7 full books, but will have to end up using 20 proxy cards to complete the last 3.
For the most part it looks like it's conflict between the priest and Priestess and the two beastmasters.
Though the lack of tanglevines also pulls the druid into the mix.
(The 2 beastmasters and the druid each need 3 and you get 4 copies with what I bought.)
Also the Male Beastmaster book has 4 Feral Bobcats, in my copies of the sets I ended up with 3 Bobcats total.
So it's impossible to build the set without buying multiples.
Now I realize that the books in the instructions are starting points. And the purpose of the game is to modify and build custom decks. But I was planning on using the sets to teach friends, get them hooked.
So in case anyone else is wondering, If you bought one of everything and wanted to build all the books in the rule books you would need extras of these cards:
4 Tanglevines
3 Mana Flower
2 Feral Bobcats
1 Thunderift Falcon
2 Dissolve
1 Timber Wolf
1 Heal
1 Dawn Breaker Ring
1 staff of Asyra
1 Asyran Cleric
1 Knight of Westlock
1 Divine Protection
1 Rhino Hide
Edit: One note,
Just found that the 4 bobcats is supposed to be 3 bobcats and an extra Thunderift Falcons (3 instead of 2)
However All that would mean is removing 1 bobcat from my list and Add a Thudnerift Falcon because there aren't any unused after constructing the decks.
