It's not just MTG:T that has this problem, every game SOE has is specifically designed to be pay-2-win. You could have precognitive powers, make everyone from Ceaser to Churchill your ***** but you're still no match for a 3 year old little shit wth a rich daddy.

Im working on a list of these. The sources at the right of my list are probably more user friendly than my list.

Btw SOE has 3 other card + genera (tbs or tbt) games and i hope you are wrong because 2 sound pretty good. To all ppl who say the game is overpriced for 10g you get mind control. Half the spells over 100g are creatures without blue protection. 5$=50g afaig. and 2g / day for free. Except today and till 30 of may where 5$=150g afaik. Through store bought cards not credit.Brad Calkins said:
Yes there are more worthy games that could have been reviewed but maybe this one just fit a few niches the reviewers have been neglecting. Like MtG fans?
Battlegrounds is real time afaik. And old maybe.
Several of the free and one of the pay MtG emulators imply they are good for making your own card games. There is also at least one game (OCTGEN? i don't remember which) that is currently being used to emulate a lot of boardgames. 40K especially. Go diy.mikev7.0 said:
If it's OCTGN that wouldn't surprise me, that's what we used for VS. tournaments. It's essentially an online kitchen table that can keep track of a lot of math. Since I made this post though, NECA has made an online HeroClix game. It's just in beta right now and only comprises one set (Hammer of Thor) but shows considerable promise from what I've seen.ran88dom99 said:thanksKeava said:Magic: The Gathering - Forge [http://mtgrares.blogspot.com/] is probably the simplest and still most enjoyable one i've used.

If I could play Warhammer 40k without leasing several treasured body parts though that's something I should look into.
Thought I'd bump this to say the game is still around and hit F2P on Steam, which caused the player size to increase a hundred-fold and caused some problems. They've also done balance fixes and other forms of tinkering the past year. Though the SOE cuts last year hit the Tactix team hard, they're down to 6 people on the main team. They've also cut the cost of most things (boosters are now 3 for 14 cards, campagins are 2.50, etc)
