In 2-3 years, my webcomic might be able to have enough for a card game. You are still the one who has my eye in helping me out with that project. It will be silly and ambitious as you know how I can be. That is if you want to and if you remember our time in MLPCCG as friends. In fact, I can chat with you about the fuzzy details whenever you like; PM or what have you. I'm also weighing the possibility of a pay-to-read novelette series next to my comic.
Plenty of old online friends drift off but no way I'm going to let a sharp mind like yours slip off my radar. We'll speak again soon.

I don't think I hate anyone that's helped me with that project, really o.o
It's just been an insanely rough year. Most of my ccg projects didn't get past pre-planning (roughly only three survived but they all require a ton of work).
So yeah, send a PM so we can catch up.

New rulebook is being made (had to wait for more updated cards, after all), but here's the Getting Started page on the site.

Now, there will be new decks to print that use these particular cards.

This is a fan-project meant to increase my skills with making cards according to IP.
MLPCCG is a non-violent game that plays out like a race. Get to 10 Apples first, or your rival runs out of cards, or you fulfill any one of the instant-win cards, and you win the game. It is, above all, a game of cost management.
Having a limited amount of actions per turn, while only limiting a card's cost by what is essentially time and deckspace, means that each and every play is important. Skill in both deckbuilding AND in-game are emphasized.
Player choice is key. I've been working hard to make all 463 MC combinations viable in play, so long as the player has the skill to back it up.

Oh.
Oh, gosh, what're--
what's happening to my arms?
I just-- I'm hugging you! I can't help it, I'm just hugging you!
Good gosh, what is happening, here?

I just posted all 22 MCs. You pick two and that's what you build your deck around.
Want Rarity and Sweetie belle? Go ahead. Twilight Sparkle and Trixie? More than doable!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
But Sweetie Belle, Rarity, and Photo Finish would be a no-no? Or would it be, Rarity and Babs Seed would be a no-no?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sweetie Belle, Rarity, AND Photo Finish (once she's out)? That's gotta be Triple Battles, but that exists too!
You could Rarity + Babs Seed if you wanted
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
So what's the MC rule for? o3o
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The main game is 2 different MCs (or Pinkie Pie), but the testers have made different variants. Triple Battles (3 MCs) and Tag Team Battles (2 players w/2 MCs each per team) have proven quite popular.
I'm just saying you can make your deck around the two MCs you want to. No arbitrary colors here.

I'm a rabid Pokemon TCG player, do you think this will be easy for me and my friends to pick up? *3*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The game is quite simple to pick up, but there's some knowledge needed to build a great deck: Apple-earners are pretty key to every style of deck.
2.0 is an effort to truly make the game easy to learn, but hard to master. Right now it's got a slight hurdle in sheer game information (having it on a virtual tabletop doesn't help matters), but we're working on reducing that hurdle as much as we can. That said, there are no completely new concepts for a TCG player to learn aside from "Card advantage isn't THAT big of a deal" here.
Mind, the game is slow and methodical. Having only two cards able to be played each turn (normally) means that you've got to plan ahead and well.

Yup, that was then. Now I gotta remake it and I won't get another post

Hey there! I find this card game of yours to be pretty intresting and fun to read about as well as seeing all your creative ideas of what each card should do.
But I don't really get how the game works exactly, so is there a place where I can read the rules to your game? Because I can't find any >.>

You've got [link]
But that needs updating at this point o.o
mlpccg.com has forums which includes a how to play section. I've been told it's easier to read and understand, too.

thanks dude, I'll go check them out right away.
Also good luck in the future with your project

Might I ask why you decided to go with the phantom apple mechanic as opposed to mulligans?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I felt that mulligans have become too abusable (that perfect starting hand and all that), but I didn't want a played to be dead in the water if they had the worst starting hand imaginable.
So it's in the middle between magic and YGO in this respect, at least competitively.

I heard something about there being a tournament sometime soon, is this true?

There is, though signups seem to be closed.
The forum people did this all on their own XD

That's amazing

I posted a review of your game in my journal

I would change the adventure step to include songs to reduce clutter and simplify the song mechanic somewhat.

What's the e-mail address. I have a game to send, but I have to wait until tonight to send, as it's on my other computer. Of course it's a game played before the update and my victory here would be impossible now, given the changes to Element Spiral and Element of Magic

Funny, I can't seem to find the log. Where does it save to?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I... don't have that folder...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
should've been made if the log was saved.
Hrm.

That's ok. As I said, most of that game is impossible after the balance updates anyway. Thanks!

This game is a ton of fun. I hadn't expected Rarity and Trixie to work so well together.

Looks like you're finally getting this underway, good work!

I'm just starting to play - well, I haven't even finished making my Luna's Trix deck yet - and I like it. There are definite things that can be improved, but I can't put my finger on it right now. The one thing i can put my finger on is the use of the words "discard" I feel like there should be something to differentiate discarding from the field and discarding from the hand. I believe that can cause some confusions at some points.
But over all, I can't wait to get started and play the new Chrysalis card. Oh, and WHERE IS ZECORA D:
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Okay, I want to see her with an Evil Enchantress card. Also, will there be more songs.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
There will be more songs.

Aw. The game looks nice, but it has some over-complicated bits here and there. I'm a huge fan of creating my own games too, so I know how hard it is to find the sweet spot. But I can see you're trying, with the whole thing being in the Aplha phase.
I'll try to play it a few more times later and see for myself if there are things that I would do different.
But still - awesome work, man! Looks really nice!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I tend to make over-complicated games in general... a bad habit of mine. And I know there are some parts I can explain better with less words... all part of the practice.
and yeah, please do! Gotta improve~

Just came over from the EqD post, and this already looks epic.
Since I'm the kind of person that really likes getting into card games, do you mind if I ask you If I have a question about a specific ruling or card?
*I'd put it on that card's page to keep things organized.*

Questions open. If I don't know what's broken, I can't fix it.
