Real-er than a fishing rod! BAM!

Great change to this card. Errata is awkward but definitely justified in this case IMO. Well done and thanks very much for making this change, it has felt like a long time coming :)

Great decision on this card.

I don't mean to be that guy but it's not the *only* card that lets you change the position of your summon...iirc summoning circle does as well, but who plays with promos anyway lol.

I like the buff, shouldve always been that way.  I dont think its that earth shattering but its nice to have more options.

Edit: actually, this means I dont have to put rax up so far...this could go a long way to protect rax play against certain mages, will have to test

When it came out, everyone was saying it needed to work with barracks. I assume designers thought of that, so I'm wondering why they didn't do this card in the first place? Did they think it was too good in some obscure combination or something?

Cool. They finally did what they should have done originally.

This was one of our house rules.  Glad its official changed.  My question is the new garrison post in fif or is it just getting errata?
Jedi vs that orc guy from L of the R, wow what a mix,... i wonder if AW would consider Dhalsim a mage.

I really like this errata. As Arlemus stated, this means you can protect your Barracks and throw soldiers at the front line simultaneously, which may be why it didn't have this wording initially. Time will tell how powerful this actually is, but I think it is a good and much needed change.

I do not have any official information on this, but it is my hope that they will release the card list ahead of the actual expansion like they have done in the past. I really like knowing what I am getting before I purchase something. It is one of the biggest attractions I have for this game.

OT: This is one of the main reasons why LCG's are so much better than CCG's.

FINALLY.

Garrison Post will no longer be completely wasted space in my Mage Wars box.

Please tell me Akiro's Hammer will also be getting an errata to give it the Indirect trait.
