    MtG the RPG

    I am sorry but I do not have the time to go through every possible play scenario. Yes, your ONE dragonstorm spell might have gotten countered but how many spells and abilites did he burn to stop your one spell. Not to mention that it would not be that hard to build the mana up once again...

    I thought seriously about how to answer this post. But then as I sat and read it a second time i realized that considering that you dont understand how storm even interacts with a counterspell that I should not worry about your assesment of such. But I will say this ONE thing. if you think 27...

    MtG the RPG

    Where to even start. When sitting down and doing the original concept for the game our main goal was to translate as many cards as faithfully as possible, without breaking things, and keeping things fun. That being said ill try and respond to each of your points. Poison counters have to work...

    Just a quick update. Odds are looking better and better that the rule document will go online monday. The play testers are giving me fantastic feedback in some battle scenarios. Sunday afternoon (eastern US time) we will actually be running a game and putting as many of the rules as we can...

    MtG the RPG

    As I said, the group i am using now is just the beginning phases of the game. They are here for quick turn around, and i trust them to give me honest feedback. All of them are different kind of magic players and D&D players. But all 10 of them have tournament level magic experience and have...

    MtG the RPG

    Poision counters will work the same way they do in standard magic, execpt it will take 20 counters to bring the health to zero. If a card is exiled it is just removed from the battlefield, it may return (in the case of Astral Slide) or not come back. If a spell of yours is exiled it will...

    MtG the RPG

    There are magic items in the game that can let you increase your stats. There will also be feats that can increase the number of spells cast. But killing infinite combo decks and the more powerful combo decks in general are the exact reason for this. And at level 1 a mage will have less than...

    MtG the RPG

    Ok lets do this by the numbers Yes you gain mana in the order in which you list them. is this a disadvantage absolutley, but just like in nomral magic you might not get the color mana you need right away (or in some cases at all, thats just the nature of chance) If you are playing 2 color or 3...

    MtG the RPG

    The reason this would not work is simple. If you buy a black lotus you arent buying a black lotus spell. You are simply buying the artifact that you may use once per day (since once you use it you have exhausted its energy) Also you may only prepare a spell a maximum of 4 times in a day...

    MtG the RPG

    Stasis is a simple spell to work into the game. Creatures will not become refreshed at the beginning of each turn, any mana spent since stasis has entered the battlefield will not be refreshed. If the cumaltive upkeep cannot be paid then send statis to the mana trail. Stasis is actually a...

    MtG the RPG

    There will be a "graveyard" that in game terms will be called the "mana trail" its a echo of you will of all the spells the caster has used. This will allow such spells as antimate dead, spells with Flash Back and a few other key words to function properly. Yes, a caster will have access to...

    MtG the RPG

    I want people who have played D&D to feel at home, and I want those poeple who have played magic to look at a spell and go "yeah, I know how that works! I understand what this spell does because iv played the card in MtG before!" There is a blurring of the lines between MtG and D&D, but it...

    MtG the RPG

    I would also like to point out that the only major rule change that has been made from the 3.5 rules is how the combat round plays out. And to narrow that down even further the majority of the changes come only to spell casting. Melee combat, which is where most of the combat will still be...
