one thing that iv been wondering about is with the mage expansions - will they only include the mages spellbook cards? or action tokens, quickcast token, dice and the like as well?

Most of the games ive been in iv been the Beastmaster - weirdly my favourite game was the one i lost XD, but even so iv foun myself drifting towards a combat Wizard - Force Push on wand, Jet Stream on wand and 7 armour from various equipment and enchantments and some heals does nicely

IMO the priestess build wasn't very well-rounded, because in all my games I've never needed that much healing by merit of doing other, more important things, like generating creatures, throwing attacks, and enchanting the battleground. The best defense is a good offense they say...

hehehe Nihil ive found that for hte Priestess that the best offense is a good defence XD - archers galor and knight and angel is all you really need XD

Ok then, there has been quite a lot of talk about expansions for MW. Ranging from school specific spell tomes, to generic second spell tome to Mage specific tomes....all yet to be decided from what ive read

sooooo I thought that a thread in the Suggestions section souly for people suggestions for Mage Wars would be of use ^^

Here's my ideas:
Arena expansion - new designs of the existing game board that could relate to different areas of the Mage Wars world map?

Single Zone tiles - a pack for single zones that contain different effects, pit fall, low gravity, spike trap that attacks all in the zone and triggers on the roll of a 10+ each time the Initiative marker is passed along to the next player

so what are peoples ideas then?

Ideally what we need is an option for those that have created an account for he mage wars website to be able to mark the threads that they have no interest in any more - the downside to this is that it requires ALOT of effort on the web programmers side

Besides if you use the already existing My Topics tab then i shouldn't matter who has posted in old threads as the topics that you have posted in are your only updates Oo

Personally im against bumping a thread just to get it to the top of the list, but not to lock old threads

How about a tick box option that allows users to select whether they want their post to be removed after X amount of time? if it is not selected then the post stays up

or maybe an update to users that ask whether they still want a message to stay up or wouldn't mind them being removed?

Now that i have the game ^^ - with only two games, one being a go through of the walkthrough in the rulebook (Me as eastmaster) - and another where we made our own spellbooks (Me as wizard vs Warlock)- i found that starting with mana gen works best as it took over 9 turns for my opponent to take out even just two Mana Crystals XD - sooo much mana lol

I've found that having two of the majority of spells works well. I'm interested in seeing how well the other mages work out, and may be changing my mind to which I thought I'd prefer XD, which was the Wizard - leaning towards the Beastmaster hehehe

What about in the online store having a section that allows us gamers to select X number of cards to construct our own Mage Tome?

This is a really good idea  :ohmy:

YIPPY ^^....enjoy your karma XD

Well, Arcanus is the creator of Mage Wars, so his word is law.  Haha!

haha XD

Right - so:
1. you cast spell X
2. spell X resolves
3. spell Y counters spell X
4. spell Y resolves

because that's what i'm getting from the explanations.....where as I read the rules as:
1. you cast spell X
counter y/n
2. y - spell Y resolves to counter spell X
3. n - spell X resolves due to no counter

sorry if im getting annoying pushing the subject, just getting confused with it as im still in MTG mode XD

pretty much does Seeking Dispel resolve when it is cast, or in the resolve step of the spell casting? as your explainations seem a little weird to me as it makes Seeking Dispel unstopable as it cannot be countered??
