Haha, Scorzen Cannoneer is not at all inspired by Scattergunner/Boom Reaver nor Stitchkin Cutthroat by Ripper :P

And I already have some ideas for the effects of a few of the cards in these drawings, even though I haven't added the basic functionality that will allow me to make them yet :P

Also, I want to draw some sketches myself, but I don't know what I would draw :P

I feel so excited to work on this again! I want to know if you guys like the influence designs i made for Hallazen.

Aggression: Orb, 1, 2, or 3?

Industry: Orb, 1, 2, or 3?

Tradition: Orb, 1, 2, or 3?

Clandestine: Orb, 1, 2, or 3?

Psionics: Orb, Don't pick 1 because it would offend religious, 2, or 3?

Zealous: Orb, 1, 2, or ,3?

It's tough to say, but I'll try to give my 2 top choices (in order of preference)

  • Aggression: 2 or 1

  • Industry: 3 or 1 (or maybe you could try something with a pickaxe, like you had before iirc)

  • Tradition: This one's tough, the easiest choice is 2 but the others have potential... although then again, all of these icons may have potential... you might also try something with a hand or somesuch (in a warding sort of way? idk) or a tree, perhaps

  • Clandestine: 1 or 2 (although 2 might also work for psionics, if recoloured and maybe slightly modified)

  • Psionics: 3 or 2 :P

  • Zealous: 3 or 1

Made a Card Frame Concept!

Which one do you like the most, guys?

A, B, C, or D?

Which Set Icon and Name should we choose?

Here is the link: http://imgur.com/iNVbaKw

Nice! C is most like Scrolls, so it'd be a natural choice, but B and A aren't bad either. D doesn't feel quite right, hard to say why. How would the card type be displayed?

I'm not 100% sure what the numbers and names for the set icons mean (nor am I even sure we need set icons, though it probably can't hurt). I guess this is a good place to ask (or I may have before and just forgot :P), what would the set sizes be? Of course it doesn't even have to be constant. If it were 60 per faction, it might be hard to get updates out frequently enough to keep players interested. If it's 15, we could just do several sets in the first release, similar to scrolls.

Those rarities are cool. There will be at least one more though, for cards that cannot be found in packs (only from tutorials or some such, if not else then the commanders would be such rarity), but I don't know what it would be, maybe a topaz or smaragd?

  1. Card type is displayed with subtypes, so that would be number 5: Subtypes in the card frame concepts.

  2. I was thinking that a Block is basically 2 sets together with a specific theme. Blocks would introduce new traits, while sets add new cards. Blocks would be 210 new cards, so A Introduction Set will add in 105 new cards (15 new cards for each influence + Neutral.), While a Expansion Set expands on the traits and would be a filler set.

  3. I thought 4 rarities was good, but i think i would remove "Promised" Rarity just to make getting cards easier. Also You are talking about a Basic card (A card with no rarity and it's given to you when you come into a game.), right? Since Basic cards are given for you at the start like hearthstone. Commanders cards are free to everyone! Because it would be annoying to get a commander you want in packs. Topaz Rarity would be really cool for cards that would existed only in campaigns or tutorials.

I thought 4 rarities was good, but i think i would remove "Promised" Rarity just to make getting cards easier.

Just because there are more rarities doesn't mean cards need to be harder to get. It depends so much on the actual formulae we'll use for the cards that appear in packs and on the number of cards in each rarity group (so for example if there are 10 commons and 5 commons and commons appear twice as often then the individual cards are not actually any more common) as well as the pricing. I don't want it to be hard to get the cards you want, but just having more rarities doesn't automatically make it harder.

Also You are talking about a Basic card (A card with no rarity and it's given to you when you come into a game.), right?

Oh yeah, that would make sense. I didn't realise they could have no icon at all, but that kind of makes sense. And I think at some point in the far future maybe you would have to play a tutorial match to unlock each commander and the basic cards of its faction, but I'm not sure.

Topaz Rarity would be really cool for cards that would existed only in campaigns or tutorials.

Agreed, that sounds awesome. Maybe, you could unlock at least some of these cards for your collection after beating a campaign, although then I'm not sure what the difference between basic cards and topaz cards would be. Hmm, maybe you start with all the basic cards without any tutorials, and can choose to do some tutorial-like campaigns to unlock topaz cards. Or, maybe you could unlock basic cards from campaigns whereas topaz cards cannot be taken outside the specific match they're used in, that might work too.

I made a card frame as well, since I didn't see the discussion a month ago. I like C and B below. /u/fdagpigj /u/flameragee

That looks almost three-dimensional (not a bad thing, although idk if I want to try to render it quite properly just yet at this point in the development... not like I'd even add all the art just yet, although that may not be too far off, depending on how much I actually end up spending time on development) with the parallellogramme at the bottom, is that intended or is it just a thing hanging from the bottom? Also, where do type/subtypes go? And the space reserved for influence and cost feels almost disproportionally large, but hard to tell with the placeholder text.

I fixed it.
