Initiative

[Mathias]

Haven't found anything on the board about this thought.

I've played the game once so far, but as a house rule Initiative does not shift from turn to turn.

The mage with the highest Mana pool gets the initiative-marker.

From reading the rules I want to prevent a player from casting a 20-point monster as a last action when being 2nd player and getting to move with it as 1st player when the marker shifts position.

I also felt it quite unnatural when a mage pumps out a devil-demon from the depths, he will be the one that acts faster next round.

Just my thought.

While in theory this is a nice idea

It will probably just mean a buff for the Wizard

Using that rule would lead to even more unbalance in future sets. For example what if a mage has a ton of up keep effects. In one playtest I had 9 upkeep of my 10 channeling.
