Just a game that uses cards as a utility.That doesn't make sense, on the surface it won't look that much dissimilar to the like of HeroQuest and Descent...and those boardgames seem to be popular.Why do they feel alienated? Play or don't play.  I disagree. If its available through mainstream outlets then it gets more exposure. If its a far more visceral product then it appeals to kids, and if its easily demonstrable it will appeal to parents wanting to buy something for their kids.Take a look in one of the other 4E threads doing the rounds at the moment. So many people have commented they want simpler rules and rules that are easier to create for that its frightening!They do say 'old habits die hard', but I don't really see it stripping away that much to be honest. Maybe you explained it wrong...you seem to think I am suggesting a card game hybrid.Well give me a few years and I'll have them playing a Forgotten Realms edition of Monopoly. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />...pass Waterdeep you collect 200 GP.Well firstly, we are not trying to be a card game. Secondly I don't really think there is a massive distinction between a boardgame and a roleplaying game when you consider how widely D&D already integrates minis and board tiles into the game.</blockquote>
