   This deck system is a great way to start a pick up game even when using points,though they describe using PL difference as a factor in determining who gets underdog bonuses..I imagine it would still work that way even though the armies were balanced with points.Either way,,great addition for the casual players and hope it makes its way into AoS soon:)

Yeah, those seemed cool to me. I always kind of liked the 2nd Ed Mission Cards, and these seem sort of like those.

This sounds like just the kind of thing to break out of the mold of power at all costs army lists. Im in.

[Sugarlessllama]

I ordered mine. :D

What's frustrating about these is that they could have easily been included in the brb as a set of d66 tables.

Yah I am going to pick up a deck they seem like a really cool idea.

I will definitely be getting a deck of these and bringing them to OFCC this year for my opponents who want to play 8th! I think they are a great way to get the game set up easily and with some random components.

very cool - I will be getting these I think

 

[Threejacks]

 Picked these up today:)

 

  These are pretty much based on using PL to play  so not sure how popular they will be with tourney players,,for me though,since I dont intend to do much more than dabble in the competative thing now and then,,these will be my main choice to play:)

  I actually thought at first that they were used to modify scenarios already printed in the main book but I see now that they create the entire scenario from the ground up.Also the Ruse and Sudden Death cards work very well to balance out huge Power Level disparity between players,,for instance theres a Sudden Death card that gives a win to the player if they have at least one model on the battlefield at the end of turn 5....oh,and the Ruse and Sudden Death cards are kept hidden until used.

I went looking at a couple of the usual Portland area spots and couldn't find any. Guess they must have sold out pretty quickly.

Portland Game Store should still have some. Call them, they had 3 or 4 yesterday

Thanks, I'll swing by there when I get and chance and take a look. Never been to the store, will be worth a visit either way.

It's my favorite store. Smaller and more personable. Also has alcohol on tap.

Wrong side of the river... aside from that sounds great :-)

It's sometimes bad and sometimes good.

Maybe if I played at home, I'd pursue this. As is, pick up games at the store will likely result in someone else having it.

I used my deck at WoW last night, and it was an absolute blast. I really enjoyed the random environmental effect that it put in play. I will be using these quite a bit.
