You Have Some Homework To Do To Make The Most Of Star Wars Zero Company

You Have Some Homework To Do To Make The Most Of Star Wars Zero Company https://ift.tt/NmzkMQw Star Wars Zero Company takes place right at the end of The Clone Wars, my favorite period in Star Wars' huge timeline. That conflict begins with the Battle of Geonosis in Attack of the Clones and concludes with the deaths of the Separatist leaders in Revenge of the Sith, but a vast majority of the galaxy-spanning war is covered in the seven seasons of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. As such, Zero Company makes several references to the earlier seasons of the TV show that debuted in 2008. The biggest one, of what I've seen of the game so far anyway, comes right at the start of the story: Protagonist Hawks was made the scapegoat for a battle that went very wrong while working under General Pong Krell. And, man, that name does a tremendous amount of narrative heavy lifting in characterizing Hawks. With one name, Bit Reactor basically gave me all the proof I needed that Hawks had not onl...

Here's The Full Magic: The Gathering Fallout Mutant Menace Commander Deck List

Here's The Full Magic: The Gathering Fallout Mutant Menace Commander Deck List https://ift.tt/UYO17AF

Magic: The Gathering's next major collaboration is coming up soon, as the Fallout preconstructed Commander decks are scheduled to launch on March 8. With MagicCon Chicago kicking off this weekend, we have a look at the full 100-card list for the Mutant Menace deck, which includes exclusive looks at four of the cards within.

Mutant Menace is a Sultai-colored deck (black, blue, and green) that highlights some of the malevolent mutations that populate the Fallout franchise. The deck focuses on two main mechanics:

  • Radiation (Rad) counters
    • These are special counters which players can accrue throughout a game. After a player draws a card for their turn, they must "mill"--or discard one card from the top of their deck--for each rad counter they've accrued. If a land is discarded, nothing happens, but if anything other than a land is discarded, the player loses one life point, but also gets to remove one rad counter.
    • Example: A player has three rad counters, proceeds to discard the top three cards of their deck, and see one land and two non-land cards. The player will take 2 damage, and their number of rad counters will decrease from three to one.
  • Proliferate
    • Whenever a card is played with the "proliferate" keyword, the controlling player adds one counter of every type they control.
    • Example: If a player plays a card with proliferate against two players with rad counters, each player adds a rad counter.

Join! Die! Join! Die!

Every preconstructed Commander deck comes with one legendary creature designated as the "commander"--the de facto "leader" of the deck--as well as a second legendary creature which acts as an alternate commander if the player so chooses. Designated commanders occupy a specific zone on the board, and they can be cast at any time.
