Unofficial Blue Moon - We designed a deck for two races - need help Bolga - Di 24 Nov, 2015 06:00 Titel: We designed a deck for two races - need help
Hi,
My name is Yannick and I go by the name of Bolga here and on Boardgamegeek also. I don't speak, read or write German so I will post everything in English on this site. Thank you for your understanding.
I really wanted to join the liga recently but the time difference between the players in Europe and myself (Ottawa, Canada) is too big to make it work for me The timing doesn't work.
But my friend Martin and I play a lot together. We have organized three tournaments in Ottawa in the past 5 years and we will organize another one in the next couple of months. We love the game.
Martin has an incredible talent to design cards. He has designed more than 300 cards for Dominion. He printed them and sleeved, and has been playing regularly with his friends. He also designed many decks for Blue Moon.
And during the last two years we have been playtesting two of them. We have been meeting almost every week, once a week, for 2-3 hours to playtest. It took us one year to playtest the first deck, and another one to playtest the second deck. We playtested them against all the other races in the pre-built/out of the box format. And when we were happy with this format, we playtested them in constructed. We have probably playtested each deck a total of 70-100 hours. My contribution to the decks as been as the developer. I am good at the playtesting process, taking notes and standardizing the cards so they have clear and consistent text.
The decks are ready to play and we want very much to present them to you and get your feedback. I want to post them in separate thread but first I want to know what is the best way to present them to you. We don't have illustrations for them. Just text, power values, icons, and deckbuiding information like the card numbers and the moon cost.
My idea is to present them in categories: leadership cards, characters, supports, boosters, influence, etc. Does that work? I will type the information in each thread.
The two decks are:
The Cabal
The Girga
Is anyone interested in knowing more about our decks? Please let us know.
Cheers,

Hi Yannick,
I'm interested in knowing more about your own decks/people/sets.
And I'd say, I'm not the only one here in this forum.
You could post all the cards of one deck in one thread, sorted by the different card types.
I'm very curious ... Helios - Di 24 Nov, 2015 16:07 Titel:
Yes, we all want to see them! Mobbi - Di 24 Nov, 2015 16:19 Titel:
Dear Bolga,
I am curious about your ideas too. And I am very happy, that there are other people than us, who are playing this game actively.
All the best

Thanks for your curiosity guys. I will start posting the Cabal cards this evening then, my time. We're very excited to present them to you.
We started playtesting our third deck this week. They are called The Rouser and they have cool new mechanism. It's the only deck I designed and they seem fun to play. It probably won't be ready to present for another year. We don't have a computer program or other people to help us playtest. Just the two of us.

Very nice!
I am interested into seeing it too. We got help for card design with photoshop on this website somewhere if you are in need of it for further projects. Bolga - Mi 25 Nov, 2015 01:44 Titel:
Yes. Graphic design and illustrations. We will need help and I will get to that in the separate threads or each race.
The timing doesn't work.
