Edited by: Hunters Presence on 04/08/2006 02:44:21 Among other cards I received (including an Apoc and Geddon, yay!) I got a foil version of a Megathron. I was wondering how many other people got foil battleships in their packs?
Whilst I'm here... the quality of the cards first class. Awesome job! Alot of the mainstream CCGs aren't this good.
The rules look delightly exploitable, although its possible the race-exclusive roles might stiffen up strategies, but I won't really be able to give a full review until I've played a few more games... ----- Games Programmer | Me! |

It's a base set, and it's the only set out so far; possibilities are limited. That doesn't mean to say there isnt a lot of stuff you can do, though. It's a big base set as they go, incidentally.

(Salavating) A foil Megathron!
OMG OMG OMG! I want my cards! Now I know how that Unreal Tournament Gamer feels waiting for the game to load. If you don't know who I am referring to, check this out.
For those of you that are more musically inclined, here is a musical version of the same one.
Enjoy!

Edited by: Storm Mage on 04/08/2006 22:12:13 I orderd both mega packs and came out with 1x Scorpion 1x Typhoon 1x Dominix 1x Foil Tempest 1x Megathron and a few BC's.
Now I just need to find a place where I can trade around for the ship carda I want. (Need more Caldari/Amarr ships, never been too fond of Gallente)
BTW What are the stats on the raven card?

Just finished a game with my sister, after a few setbacks puzzling out the rules (some aren't all that clear). I think the default decks are a bit light on ships. I am lookin forward to tinkering with decks (must get more cards, my old MTG collecting habits are kicking in ^_^ ).

Well, my order is sitting rougly 60 miles from me, so I will probably be getting it Monday. That is, I hope they get here early before my fiancee has to go to work.
Anyway, I hope to get at least some decent premiums. Usually in Magic, the foils I get (even of rares) are usually of worthless or niche cards (cards that only work in one kind of deck, and usually not one I play).
Hopefully my luck is better with EVE.
I'll post as soon as I get them. ----------------------------------------- Will Work for a Cool Sig!

With two mega packs you can get pretty close to a full set. I'm just 36 cards short of a complete collection. And curse those of you with foil apocs and geddons The minmatar taunt me with their foily tempest of doom.

I haven't actually sat down and looked (yet) but I imagine I am about as close as you are to a full set from 2x mega packs,

Originally by: Malthros Zenobia Wow, that tempest is insane. Looks like we need to nerf minmatar.
Actually the Ravens defence 14 wtf pawns the TEmpest defence 8. Remember you just have to survive the first battlephase the deal damage. Those extra 6 in defence make it very hard to take down, if you dont i proceeds to do damage to your stabse, werther you still have defending ships or not. And its damage is more than enough to take out an avereage starbase.

Same here, I went through the list and discovered I am exactly 35 cards short of a full set. Now I just gotta decide if I wanna shell out more úúú for another mega pack, or consider trading some foils. -----

Edited by: Rukia Fujiwara on 07/08/2006 23:07:58 I bought the Gallente/Caldari pack with a housemate, me taking the Gallente deck and booster cards and him talking the Caldari. We also decided that i'll have the Minmatar stuff and he'll take the Amarr. He managed to get a couple of Caldari battleships wheras I got a single Tempest. The best Gallente ships I got in the entire pack were cruisers :( I did get a nice foil Cyclone though! Pity i'm not actually planning on using these Minmatar cards much though (I only have 1 Minmatar station...)

"Man, with all these great cards you guys are getting, I'm wondering if anyone will get a bummer set."
That's what I was thinking yesterday as I finished reading all of your posts. Then I got a phone call from my roommate, "Dude, your cards are here!"
After racing home, I could hardly contain my jubilation. I tore into the kitchen looking for the shiney packaging so exclusive to CCP in my neck of the woods. My roommate joined me--having paid for half of the set, he was just as anxious for me to get home as I was.
We purchased the Great War. I took the Gallente and he took the Caldari and we split the boosters down the middle (he let me keep the bonus foil ). We explored the game and had fun though I did notice a few things that I will later post as I gather my thoughts on this game.
My terror and the echo of the thoughts, though, came to fruition as I dove into the small pile of boosters.
"And lo, they shall be struck down for thinking wicked thoughts and being unclean men." ~Some biblical reference in the Old Testament.
All I got of any exceptional value was a BRUTIX! I didn't get any battleships whatsoever let alone a foil Megathron! Now before you go on touting the superiority of the ship, I don't dismiss its fine quality but that isn't my point. My point is, I didn't get a battleship and neither did my roommate. So revel in your blessedness, those of you who receieved battleships. Some of us are just damned to live in Empire space--in both games.
I guess I'll just have to try my luck with another set!
PS: Love the cards.

Well, I tried for the big game and got majorly stung by the game mechanics on countless occasions, so I no longer have an active to EVE online... you've either got to be incredibly lucky, an exploiter or stay in empire space. Putting thousands upon thousands of hours of effort into the game, building social circles, practising your fleet generalismo tactics, etc... doesn't help in the end if you can't get the sheer weight of numbers in players (despite me attempting to individually recruit over 500 players!) everything came back to the fact I could only muster 20 players. No matter how well-trained, how well-planned our operations, no matter how billions I put into our ventures groups like the Establishment would come along and blow up our starbases with mega capital fleets just for kicks. If was never that we didn't have the money for dreadnaughts... it was just we didn't have the players who could fly them.
So I'm going to succeed in the EVE CCG, that is my goal! -----

Edited by: Kiera Alise on 08/08/2006 16:43:48 Finally got my two megapacks:
And...
Almost 2/3 of my rares were news. No shiny battleships, although I did get an Apoc, a Geddon, a Thron, and a Domi. Also got tons of logistics ships.
Thorax is a rare? I got one and now realize why. I didn't even get the foil I really really wanted.....
A foil Kessie.
However, all in all, card quality is good and even theough the boxes came in squished (another reason to hate DHL), the cards were fine. Just my typical luck when I buy booster boxes...
edit: One of my premiums box-toppers was a Superior Iteron. Awesomeness. The other was, big surprise, a news card - Crime Pays. ----------------------------------------- Will Work for a Cool Sig!
