Who has received their expansion? Thoughts?

[bzeppos]

I'm curious who has received Forcemaster vs. Warlord. When did it arrive and from whom did you order it? What type of shipping? What state/city?

I ordered mine from the publisher--thinking it would be the quickest to arrive--and sadly it has not gotten here yet. I used UPS ground shipping and live in TN. The original arrival estimate was Wednesday but now it looks like it won't be here until tomorrow or Saturday. I can't endure the wait!

Bonus questions: If you've got it, what do you think? How many times have you played the new mages? What are your favorite cards and effects? What are your favorite new tactics?

I pre ordered it from a store nearby.

I liked that one box has almost all the copies of any cards youd need in it... low level basic cards are all in 4-6 quantities, legendary expensive items all come in pairs.. theres no real need to get a second one to stock up on cards.

The only let down I had was that none of the stuff teased in that dicetower kickstarter video was included in it, so no ballista, vorpal sword, gravikar, etc.  There was also no giant killer skunk.

By in large Im pretty happy with it though.

I haven't seen the Dice Tower teaser. I will check it out. So where are those cards from if they are not in the xpack?

Some were pushed back to the next expansion possibly.  I believe Gravikor and the Ballista were mentioned in this regard specifically in a different thread.  Likely someone in the know will reply before I can find the link, though...

I too have the expansion and was slightly disappointed that the cards mentioned in the dice tower teaser weren't included. But its no biggie and the rest of the cards are very interesting and there are plenty of each, so as mentioned no need to buy multiple copies. I haven't had a chance to play yet but will have a few games over the weekend- both mages look quite interesting!

Folks,

I apologize for the confusion, but the cards mentioned in the Dice Tower Kickstarter video are promo cards that will be released in future sets, not in the Forcemaster vs Warlord Expansion. However, you will see them in the future, possibly with alternate artwork.

Thanks,

Ahh, well that's exciting too. Still plenty of toys in this expansion so I'm happy

It's also worth noting that the Spellbooks came in perfect condition this time. I was one of the people who had bubbles all over the place on my books in the core set, the hair dryer trick made them look much better but def not perfect. However I couldn't spot a single flaw on the expansions books, def satisfied!

I am still waiting on my stuff :lol:

Got my stuff on Wed  :cheer:

[Koy]

Still waiting here too, but that's the usual for Alaska.  I am hoping for a delivery today to have it to play over the weekend, but it is unlikely.  "Patience grasshopper... patience."  No matter how much I say that to myself, it doesn't really help quell the expansion excitement.

Things usually take a week or two longer to get to Canada so I will be pleasantly surprised if it shows up before March 1st

Just got mine today. Everything pretty much closed early on Wednesday and didn't open yesterday. A storm front moved through and dropped 14.2 inches of snow on us. That's pretty much what we normally see in two years.
