    Blood of Gladiators and Fields of Honor, the two next sets.

    some facts:

    Release Date: March, 2009
    lood of Gladiators™ continues the third year of the award-winning World of Warcraft® TCG with all-new content, including characters from the World of Warcraft® comic book (with art by Jim Lee), Arena locations, and dual-class allies.




    FIELDS OF HONOR
    Release Date: July, 2009

    Fields of Honor™ continues the third year of the award-winning World of Warcraft® TCG with all-new content focusing on the popular battlegrounds, including a new Honor theme, Honor-based locations, and the introduction of Death Knight weapons and armor in a booster release.

    Three new randomly inserted Loot™ cards mean more opportunities to open cosmetic upgrades for your World of Warcraft® online character.

Use your existing World of Warcraft® TCG cards with an alternate rules set, which will be included on some UDE Points cards. Horde and Alliance Flag cards will be randomly inserted to assist this fun style of play!

    and dual-class allies.


    Hm. Since class has almost no relevance now, I wonder how this'll work.

    including a new Honor theme, Honor-based locations


    Alternate win condition or are we going to be sitting in Alterac Valley for 5 hours....

    Makes sense to print some DK cards early. But they're really going to need some insane cards or a mini set of DK abilities/talent cards if they're added this late to the party and want to be competitive outside of block.

    No arenas in this set then, Gladiator Longsword possibly a precursor...

    We have dual-class abilities in Drums, allies is a reasonable step forward....

    What's the honor theme? +X health on your hero, where X is equal to your lifetime honor? (Andy and Jimmy will be happy).

    I like this idea.

    I can picture it already; I deal you a total of 29 damage... another 2975 damage left to go.

    lol...

    Anyway honor theme will probably be in keeping with the location, arena theme. Most likely we'll be seeing introduction of "sets" where if you have combinations of location and/or equipment with the same tag in play, you will receive some sort of boost (there is probably a Location - Arena released sometime soon).

    +health is just too op...  +1 sb card for each 2 levels sounds much better.

    I actually took a shot at writing a WSG themed ruleset a while back, although they weren't amazing, and I'm sure way more complex than necessary. The thread is probably still around somewhere buried at page 50 or something.

    I'm interested to see how they can make it capture the feel of WSG within the text-rules-constraints of a UDE point card :)

    I'd wager that the easiest way to incorporate death knight abilities would be through a Naxxramas raid deck, the same way that they brought additional traitor abilities into play.  Patchwerk want to play?


    Just keep adding syllables. I'll tell you when to stop.

    I like that idea, but I don't think that honour will be relevant in that way, more likely an in game system.
