I will populate the forums with links to interesting subject matter to get some ideas flowing into here.

Currently doing admin chores to better serve functionality and theme for the discussions to take place here. Please bear with me as changes are made. They will slowly be rolling out over the course of the next week or so.

Awesome. Thanks for doing this! Looking forward to contributing to the growing community! I guess we need to start spreading the news of this site. Anyone post this to boardgamegeek? Heroscapers.com would obviously be one needed too.
I know this is brand new. I was just thinking of improvements and I think we need some pictures or a gallery. It'd be nice to have scans of all the cards. Unfortunately I do not have a scanner. To copy what was done over at Heroscapers for that game it would also be nice to have "Books" on each figure and spell card I'm thinking. We could have FAQ in them as well as strategy discussions. Once this game gets some expansions we will also be able to do decklists and army builds.

Welcome, Gamjuven. We look forward to your contributions as well. Yes, we need to spread the word around. I figured I would see how well it would work if I relied completely on the community to go proselytize at sites like BGG.
A Gallery is an excellent idea for the future. The immediate need was to create a place to discuss the game first.
It would be great to get some feedback from the designers once this game is officially released, in order to form an ad hoc FAQ until an official FAQ is made.

This forum is dedicated to the discussion of Hasbro & Wizards of the Coast new game; " Magic the Gathering: Arena of the Planewalkers". It's a fresh new start for a fresh new game. Let's build a community around the potential this game offers. Hello everyone. I am an avid heroscaper and also enjoy playing magic the card game. Let us hope they don't abandon this game as they did heroscape, the D&D heroscape was a disaster and they never expanded the marvel marvelscape edition which had plenty of promise. Let us hope this won't be "collectable" expansions and will be more like heroscape with future expansions. I really hate the way magic, pokemon, heroclix do things with their expansion packs. This has tons of promise, but I don't think avid Magic players will catch on. This does open up to other gamers that prefer boardgame style games. The best part is that the heroscape expansions are compatible and hope the rules will be expanded to totally make all the figures from heroscape blend in with Planeswalkers. That would be awesome. Of course, we can always play by our own rules like always. Thanks for letting me join and looking forward to these forums. |

I was looking up info on the expansion and stumbled across this site. I'm a huge MTG fan, been playing since Ice Age back in 1995, never played HeroScape, but I bought AotP because it's MTG. I'm looking forward to discussing deck and army ideas when they become more available.

So, I help run and operate a family-owned hobby gaming retail store/cyber cafe/general local hangout, and we have a tradition known as boardgame night. We recently, as of a few weeks ago, acquired a copy of the shadows over innistrad version of arena of the planeswalkers. It has become a smash hit with both me and our players! Our wholesale copy of the zendikar expansion arrives tomorrow, and we plan on ordering the core game soon. I personally love this game, and this community seems pretty neat, so I can't wait to contribute. (I have been playing magic the gathering since coldsnap, and I played marvel heroscape for a little bit, so arena of the planeswalkers has been super fun lol) I found this place doing a google search on AOTP to see what kind of cards were in the zendikar expansion and core game, and the mana vault really helped. (With the ones I was interested in anyways,  ftw.)Now using this website I have developed some great decklists, my own custom planeswalker card (shoddy quality but it works lol), and some new strats. Also, some of our players may soon attempt to join this community as well (the ones who play AOTP anways). So, hello everyone! |

Hi folks, I was looking for a Team based Fantasy Board Game and found AotP. We played it just for only 3-4 times but that was enough to buy BfZ and SoI I found this Page as i were looking for some Rules. (As MtG before there is enough Stuff for discusions  . ) So i hope we will have some nice dialogues and can share our game experiences. So long and thanks for the fish ( sorry for my bad english) |

Hey all, just came across this site and I'm pumped! I was thinking about creating a resource to help show Hasbro/Wizards there's a lively interest/market for this game. Anyone have any insight on future expansion?
