It's still not perfect for the English user, the card types are still in German for constructed deck building. This takes renaming directories. I may do that sometime. The card images being in German is no problem at all I think - you can't read the text anyway. Whether you'd be allowed to use these files in the online league I've no idea. |

I found a few Errors within your German Cardnames for example you had written "Banne den Gegne" you forgot the "r". The right Name of the Card is "Banne den Gegner". But its not a big Problem, i can over wright them.

I think in the next version we should offer the English/German and the German/English version of the Blue Moon DataFile. I'm not sure if we should additionally offer "only German" and "only English" versions?

I did the proof reading for the complete Set File and sent the en/de and the flipped de/en version to dearlove.
|
Zitat: |
Should be sent to KivasFajo to make the 6 Standard Decks out of the Set (when I got this right - setup can do this job). |
Zitat: |
I found some typos, corrected card types in Flit cards, and replaced the original texts by those corrections to be found in German FAQ (mostly incorrect translations to German). |

your texts were those printed on the German cards.

FYI, I finished my new BlueMoonCT-Setup 2.2.
You can download it from the Blue Moon League page. |

Having it adopted as standard means there's no need for it there, and just potential confusion |

BTW, if we should find any mistakes, we can fix them with a small update.

Stupid question... does anyone have a (text) file listing all "special function" texts (not the "flavour" texts at the bottom) of all BlueMoon cards in both English and German language ?
|
Zitat: |
Alternatively, is there a "dictionary" of BlueMoon terms for different languages ? |
Dearlove hat folgendes geschrieben: |
Not really worth a reissue just for this, but can be put on the list for the next re-release, probably Nuernberg time.
|
Ruwenzori hat folgendes geschrieben: |
If you are among the PC Game testers, you can also take the file ..\de\madwer\bluemoon\Sonderfunktion.class (but you will have to strip the control chars)
|
Dearlove hat folgendes geschrieben: | ||
Slightly more significant, the English character cards all have Character/Character rather than Character/Charakter. What the German cards have I don't know. I don't think this one was me, but I'm willing to be corrected. |
Dearlove hat folgendes geschrieben: | ||
Two things: (a) I'm not sure where that file is being referenced from, and (b) do you mean the CardTable by PC Game, or something else? |
Ruwenzori hat folgendes geschrieben: |
Is there anybody aware of a machine readable version of the cards Flavour Texts?
|
Dearlove hat folgendes geschrieben: |
I have one (Reiner's official one - Excel spreadsheet of all card details if anyone is interested in what tool is used) |
Dearlove hat folgendes geschrieben: |
Now if you want an unpublished fact, once upon a time there was a more formal relationship between, say, a 5/4 and how many moons it was worth. But when playtesting revealed that the then values made some cards so that they weren't worth picking - or were picked too often - quite a few cards were revalued the relationship became less clearcut (and never was clearcut for cards with special power text). |
Lachwurzn hat folgendes geschrieben: |
This leaves two interpretations for me: either the "more formal relationship" was not perfect and it was easier to rely on heavy playtesting instead of investing into a perfect mathematical model or psychology plays an important role in picking any cards anyway.
|
Lachwurzn hat folgendes geschrieben: |
Your formula is extremely interesting and seems to work pretty good for all the cards I've looked at. Would it then make sense to expand it with saying for example that for each icon (shield, retrieve, protected free, pair, gang) one should add an additional moon ?
|
Zitat: |
Special power text of course is even more complicated, but I think that this could be worked out with some testing. |
Zitat: |
Please understand that this is not only very much interesting for understanding the currently exisiting official cards but even more for our "fan cards" which usually cause a lot of discussion concerning their "moon values". I would really love to expand a bit more on this subject on would be glad for any feedback or ideas that you have on it ! |
Zitat: |
Here we have a problem. I don't look at fan cards. There are a few words in the FAQ on this. I'm afraid this isn't going to change. |
Zitat: |
It would appear that for similar values, supports cost more than boosters (obviously) and boosters cost more than characters |
Zitat: |
RETRIEVE? Actually it seems to be worth 1 moon
- provided you add it before increasing to zero if negative. |
Zitat: |
Actually we only have three FREE characters, and they have moons equal to their maximum value, but extraopolating that would be tricky. |
Zitat: |
Special power text is so irregular, there are no patterns to form formulae from. |
Zitat: |
Get as many opinions from people who know what they are up to as you can. But don't necessarily take a majority vote - where there's a big discrepancy, try to understand why. |
Lachwurzn hat folgendes geschrieben: |
Well, you are probably right that there is no general formula for it, but nevertheless I can see certain patterns which then could be "added up" for the total "moon value" of a card...
|
Zitat: |
a leadership card: seems to have a base value of 1 moon |
Zitat: |
a booster card: seems to have a base value of 1 moon |
Zitat: |
I may be totally wrong on this approach at all, there will be exceptions to the rules and there are for sure a number of cards that defy any rule at all, but a set of basic principles would certainly help us. |
Zitat: |
To make this process easier, your basic principles (and we're for sure curious about your fourth one) are certainly of help. |
Lachwurzn hat folgendes geschrieben: |
I somehow believe that you are talking about the KHIND here although you'll never admit this anyway.
|
Zitat: |
I can't imagine any leadership card text that is so weak as to allow for zero moons |

Sorry, I accidentally hit Edit rather than Reply, didn't notice I had and because I'm moderator here, it let me stomp all over your posting. I hope if I leave this here you can rebuild it. The quotations in my following piece are from what once was here. Now I know I can do that, I'll try to be more careful in future.

Sorry, I think no one said that this card would have a FREE symbol. |
KivasFajo hat folgendes geschrieben: |
However, as you cannot play more than one leadership card per turn, having many leadership cards (i.e. more than five) in your deck comes with a risk of getting a blocked hand.

Dearlove hat folgendes geschrieben: |
His point was that Leadership cards are so easy to play that they might as well have a FREE symbol on them. They are, in fact, easier to play than cards with FREE symbols since you can even play them before retreating. Thus, they're pretty good for running out your deck. They don't of course add to the cards in your combat/support area, which is the other major benefit of FREE cards. In effect the question is would you take a zero moon Leadership card with the text "This card has no effect"? As a related question, would you pay a moon for a FREE support card with zero values and no text? |
kilrah hat folgendes geschrieben: |
I'd consider paying a moon for "a FREE support card with zero values and no text" in order to reach the 6 Card limit for 2 Dragons? I actually would prefer a booster however.

For some races (Hoax mainly) I'd consider paying a moon for "a FREE support card with zero values and no text" in order to reach the 6 Card limit for 2 Dragons? Of course it largely depends on the deck building strategy. I actually would prefer a booster however. |
kilrah hat folgendes geschrieben: |
Indeed I think that booster are less vulnerable. There are less cards that affect them I think. Also most cards can only attack active cards, so again a booster is saver. Finally most people take anti-support cards, while only few take anti booster cards (unless it is free for their race).
