I dont know if this is a misprint or not but is this card supposed to look like this
Incursus
Here is a comparison between Incurus and Crusifier
Incursus + Crucifier
My apologize for the low quality picture, my scanner isnt workning and this was taken with my digital camera on my kitchen taple.
It should though show what im asking about. The crucifer has some text describing its attributes where as the incursus has none.
Hope some on here can give some answers and my apologys just didnt know where else to ask
Edit was trying to fix the incursus + crucifier link didnt work maybe this link does: http://dl1.eve-files.com/media/0608/Incurus_+_Crusifier.JPG

I believe that simply means that the card has no 'special effect'. you have the values that matter in the top right corner, but the Incursus just doesnt happen to have a speciall ability like the Crucifier's 'Sensor Dampen 2' and 'Patrol 1'

Its probably because the Incursus doesnt have any special abilities tied to the card. The assembly cost is in the rulebook and the crucifier has special abilities that need explaining. Other than that they both look fine to me

I think its allright. In MTG you also have some cards without any text - they just dont have any special abilities.

Indeed. The advantage with the Incurus is it applies to more races (note the icons on the left). ----- Games Programmer | Me! |

Exept you wont really be playing more than one race, so the bonus is really only that you can have it in your deck, which at play time counts for very little. There might be card that taget only specific races, but that I have yet to see. But it has pretty decent stats for the price, but not anything wild. Just seems like a pretty bad card really.

Agreed. For the same build time and cost, that Crucifier seems like a better pick, even with the one less attack. The Sensor Dampener 2 alone makes up for it and then some, IMO.

Yes, Sensor damp is quite evil.
Then again I've noticed you can use a couple cards and a mining frig can make a freakin truckload of ISK. Like 12 or 16 from an Ice field.

Still, it's a bonus of the card.. doesn't have to be in play time. For example, limited cards are less useful than a non-limited equivalent. Even so, there will also be bad cards in a CCG. ----- Games Programmer | Me! |

Limited in eve ccg IS a play time limitation. Anyways ive fould at least one card that COULD turn having multiple races listed into a bonus...

Both of those ships are really popular among playtesters.
Incurses is a great early striker. When you have played a few games you will learn what a monster Incursus can be in certain early game situations. Since an un-modified starbase shield is only 7, two Incursuses are only 1 damage short from destroying it.
Crucifier is a great addition in any situation, but doesn't deal as much damage.
