A couple of these cards use the term Exile. None of the existing AotP spell cards (As least none that I recall) use that term, so it currently has no meaning within the game. It would be best to explain on the card just what Exile does or means, or to use a different term that has already been used and define within the game.
Also, for Goblin Explosives, it would seem that it is required to have some goblins already summoned to be able to play it. I know that seems obvious, but it might be best to include the obvious on the card.

I think one thing that could be improved is the wording which is a bit funky such as the phrase "1 wound" which wouldn't normally be found on a card produced by Wizards of the Coast. Fix this up and in my opinion you have got a not too shabby batch of cards (Just read cards from the sets created by wizards all ready and you should figure out how the wording works) Also remember capitalization and grammar are key  |

Thanks, I'm trying to get the wording straight from mtg for these. I gotta fix a few things. Just added so more  Do you guys know if you can hide a section and click a button to reveal it . That was the page isn't a mile long? Lol |

I went through all these and have some more detailed comments. I previously mentioned 'Exile', but have included it here as well. Really interesting powers sometimes are very difficult to explain precisely in just a few words. Dread Return - Sacrifice a creature return target creature card from your graveyard to the battlefield. Huh? I have no idea what this means. Perhaps punctuation is needed. - Flashback - What is Flashback? What is the flashback cost? What is exile (not currently an AotP term)? Memory Plunder -You may cast target a sorcery card.... what is a cast target? To the Slaughter -Delirium ...in your graveyard, instead... Instead of what? There needs to be some reference for the word 'instead'. It might mean the first sentence on the card. Twincast ...oppent... should be opponent ...popy... should be copy? Hands of Binding; Hidden Strings, Last Thoughts - Cipher (Then.... Defining Cipher by starting with 'Then' makes no sense to me. Exile... Encoded... These terms have no meaning in AotP. Mystic Retrieval - Flashback (no Flashback cost mentioned on this one). Exile again. Plea for  -Activate one creature or one squad? Time Reversal Exile again. Voidwalk -Exile target creature. Return it to the battlefield. Somehow it seems like Exile is supposed to be permanent removal from the game, while the Graveyard is a temporary removal from the game. Here Exile has become a temporary removal from the game. -Cipher - same concerns as above Auramancer's Guise ...every other second Aura - what is that, about the 4th one or so?? Vigilance ?? What is this? Corrupted Conscience Wither sounds like we now need to keep track of the stats of each individual figure in a squad. Dictate of Kruphix This lasts until the enchantment is somehow removed, correct? Bountiful Harvest Choose target squad your planeswalker removes 1 damage for each creature in target squad. Is this what this means? Choose a target squad that has figures on the board. Remove 1 damage from your planeswalker for each of the figures in the chosen squad that is on the board. Corrosive Gale "Large Hex" template. Is this a 3 hex template, a 7 hex template, or the even larger 24 hex Heroscape template? Creeping Renaissance ... no longer use any abilities it has on its card. does this mean: ... no longer use abilities printed on its card. Epic Confrontation Is this suggesting that your own creature and an opponent's target creature both get to roll attack dice and defense dice? How many times can each figure roll attacks? Does this last to the death of one of the creatures? Grim Flowering You may draw as many cards as you choose for each creature card in your graveyard. - as written that says I can draw any or all cards in my deck. Demonfire Exile again Warp world - perhaps have the players count the number of cards in their hand before shuffling. Do artifacts put on to the field have any immediate effect? How about enchantments, do they have an immediate effect? Which player gets to place their cards first? or is it one card played and then the next player gets to place a card? End result of playing this card will be than no player has any cards left in their hand, right? Oblivion Ring Exile again and temporary exile Bookkeeping to remember which figures were chosen. Path to Exile Exile again |

thanks again for the feed back i know there's a lot of typos and stuff a lot of times im doing these cards while doing something else and i dont re read to catch those dumb mistakes or sometimes i notice once i already uploaded and i wont go back until my clean up step since i would like feed back first anyway and just see what you guys think. also important for the new things like youve suggested with exile and stuff i will be adding rules and for the card with the hex i will have a template section for it also. Dread Return - Sacrifice a creature, return target creature card from your graveyard to the battlefield. like that? - Flashback - these are from magic im not sure what type of thing they are called i tried to structure it the same way "Flashback—1Green, Pay 3 life. (You may cast this card from your graveyard for its flashback cost. Then exile it.)" gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=29873Memory Plunder -"You may cast target sorcery card" typo To the Slaughter -Delirium this is structured the same way as mtg it soppouse to trigger the instead of the first line of text ill probably have to add that rule in above. Twincast dumb typo i noticed it also Hands of Binding; Hidden Strings, Last Thoughts - Cipher i think i got this almost exactly the same as from mtg, im not sure how mtg handles it, someone explained it to me when i started mtg. "Cipher (Then you may exile this spell card encoded on a creature you control. Whenever that creature deals combat damage to a player, its controller may cast a copy of the encoded card without paying its mana cost.)" gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=366445Mystic Retrieval - Flashback i think it was the discard but you're right i should keep structure cositent Plea for -just one creature, a squad wouldve been too strong Time Reversal ill put up in rules Voidwalk -exile is strange for some reason its a new zone and if you play mtg you notice that cards can come back from that zone rarely though, its a more secure area then the graveyard. Auramancer's Guise this one i had trouble wording it meant to be for every two you get the bonus but maybe it should be 3.. im using another forum users version of Vigilance, ill define it also in the rule section Corrupted Conscience yeah i realised that problem also i was thinking of making template that for attached to the squad card that keeps track of each creature(can also be used for wound markers). i know some might not like it but otherwise it would be too strong since it would reduce everyones stats. or what do you think thats fine? affecting the entire squad? since it doesnt deal damage ? Dictate of Kruphix yup Bountiful Harvest yeah thats better Corrosive Gale ill be posting a template section in the rules i have it saved but never uploaded, think itll be cool to have this type of thing. Creeping Renaissance yup, does it sound nicer that way or is it more clear? Epic Confrontation they enter a unique combat phase that works the same as the other which means that each attacks only once. however you have a cool idea which i might make into another card xD Grim Flowering trouble wording again, its meant to be you can draw as much as graveyard or as to any amount before the amount of the graveyard sorry if that doesn't make sense Warp world - this card might get scraped has to many problems lol Oblivion Ring yeah but for the sake of mechanics,you can put the creature on the card to remember |

I'm getting a better understanding now. I guess one question I have regarding exile is - do you need exile to be different than the graveyard? What is the difference between being exiled and being pit into the graveyard? When i thought that exile was a permanent version of the graveyard, it made a bit of sense. Then when cards that allowed something to be removed from exile showed up, I got confused. If mtg simply uses a different term for the concept, I would think it better to use graveyard and not introduce a new term. If exile needs to have a different meaning, then you will need to provide that meaning. I understand better now that several of the cards provided a choice of powers (Delirium, Cipher). There might be an alternate way to express that in AotP. I took To the Slaughter and made an example with it. I know that extra words use up space on the card, and that can be a problem. But this is one possible way that might make those extra powers easier to include. Edit: I see as I read the card that I have not gotten the correct, but the idea could still work. ![]()  |

"Exile was known as "Removed from the game" before it was renamed in the wake of the Magic 2010 rules update. [2] Unlike other zones, it is considerably harder to access cards from this zone. Only a few cards, such as Pull from Eternity or Riftsweeper can touch them without having the cards exiled themselves. The exile zone is used as a holding place for other cards, as in the case with the mechanics Imprint and Suspend. However, it is also sometimes used similarly to the graveyard as a zone for cards that were eliminated by the opponent, for example a creature being exiled by Swords to Plowshares. Exiling primarily occurs among  ,  , and  cards." the rulings are there mtgsalvation.gamepedia.com/Exilecipher is a tricky one, once the first part is complete then cipher can be used however delirium is a conditioned card so it has an effect however if "blank" statement is achieved then delirium becomes the normal effect. i think its a new mechanic that was just made. i might add a "or", "however" between the delirium like you did though. that's the normal card. magic to me has always had confusing text.  |

If exile needs to have a different meaning, then you will need to provide that meaning. I'll need to provide a glossary of potential rules that can be translated to this game. Magic sets a precedent that certain abilities have just a name since those abilities are so ubiquitous. Much like flying. Except Heroscape explained everything to death when flying should be one of those that simply state "flying" and nothing else. Its a hard balance to make, but perhaps such things could have two cards. Advanced and basic. Basic explaining everything and advanced just giving the name of the ability. |

Hey there terrific blog! Does running a blog such as this require a lot of work? I have very little understanding of programming but I had been hoping to start my own blog in the near future. Anyway, if you have any suggestions or tips for new blog owners please share. I know this is off topic but I just needed to ask.
