[QUOTE="gyor, post: 7510226, member: 6670153"] First up the Boros and Azorious [url]https://youtu.be/1vOgtfH96mM[/url] [video=youtube_share;1vOgtfH96mM]https://youtu.be/1vOgtfH96mM[/video] What really stood out to me was the discussing of how renown would interact with the Guild System/backgrounds, Also there will be different types of Boros Angels, such as War Leader ( General/Leader Angels like Aurelia herself), and Firemane Angels (basically enforcer fighting type Boros Angels). Oh and he kept referring to them not as Boros Angels, he kept calling them Battle Angels, which makes sense because some of these angels left the guild, to either serve the Gateless or join the Orzhov, and also perhaps to make it clear they are different from distinctly Orzhov Angels like Angels of Despair and Death Pact Angels. Also calling them Battle Angels makes them more useful outside of Ravnica in other settings. I am curious as to if the Angel of Light from the most recent set made it into this book given it's actually set before the current storyline. I hope so as I'm curious as to where the Angel of Light and Divine Visitation cards fit into the current Angel Mythology of Ravnica. BTW we already know from else where that all the Guildmasters are statted up in the book so I don't know if a generic War Leader will be statted up as well as Aurelia, or if it's just Aurelia as the War Leader. I am disappointed that he didn't mention the Wojeks of the Boros guild, it will be so wrong if the Wojeks are mentioned in the book, they are super important to the Setting. As for Azorious they talk about the three columns, Judges, Arrestors, and I think Senate, Elecutors are also mentioned, Sphinxes are also mentioned as important with in the guild, including the Guildmaster of Azorious. Surprisingly no mention of Archons or ghosts, both of which are important to the guild.

They talk about Rakdos Entertainers, Gruul, Anarchists, beliefs, races, the nature of MtG Angels and Demons and how that translates into D&D terms. They don't mention Rakdos also represents Miners and other working class concerns unfortunately. They also discuss Guild alignment and how not all Guildmembers follow that alignment, and the Guild masters of Rakdos and Gruul. [/QUOTE]
