I have been thinking about what colour to make Peacekeepers. My initial though was “they are bad and there for black” but the more I think about it the more they seem just extremely “good” and there for white. What colour do people hear think best suits them?

I think all the SW starfighter squadrons should have banding.

Banding? I have seen the key word but never an explanation. Is it like group attacking?

Any way hear are some more fighters(I did them before reading your point).

If a group has banding, it can combine its attack and hp with another creature. They attack as one, combine the terrainwalk/flight abilities of all, and if they lose they both die.

I think it was only in the first few series of Magic cards. Come to think, the starfighters should have "flying" too.

Wow did I just date myself with that "banding" crack

Since most if not all of the cards I have made are spaceships and hence should flying it would be pointless to give them it. It would force an increase it cost of even basic creatures and dis-balance the sci-fi set to real once. So I decided to use flying to represent “special” ways to attack a target. This includes farscape's wormholes and starburst.

Some more farscape (I don’t know why I am doing so many) peacekeepers this time.
I decided to spilt the difference and make them White/black.



Also I can’t write flavor text and have a bad memory for quotes so if any one has quotes for any of the ships please post them.

Some clarification for banding:

Basically, banding means the following:

(1) Attack declaration. A band can consist of any number of creatures with banding, plus one additional creature. These will attack as a group. Blockers will still only block specific members of the grooup, but if one member of the group is blocked, the whole band is blocked.

(2) Damage allocation. If you attack with a band you and not the defending player will decide how damage is dealt to that group.

(3) Special abilities are not shared, they remain distinct permanents. The band remains a band for the duration of the combat, even if a special effect or ability removes the banding ability during the combat. Moreover, a band will remain a band even if creatures are removed from the band due to damage.

PS: The rulebook can be found here: Linka

Banding is explained in rule 502.10


Edits: spelling and grammar plus clarification.

For Magic, I always figured that "tweeners" when it came to Good/Bad issues were Red.

Red is generally associated with Chaos. Blue is Order (and learning). Green is Nature.

So being uncompromisingly for Order would presumably make them Blue.

Some more starwars.



Note on the dreadnnaught class. It’s called a Heavy cruiser but its only 800m is there an explanation for this and what should I put it down as.

Also I named the Composer Class my self because it has no real name if some one knows the real name or has a better made up one please post it.


This one is from a wiki article so if it has some more information or a real class name please post it. http://starwars.wikicities.com/wiki/Doomgiver

This program has a quick and easy system for creating unique MtG cards.

And hear are some of my own starship, not part of the set but i felt like posting them anyway.

Made quickly using the Magic Workstation program.






Bah Ignore the flavor text.

You guys and your crappy instant-card programs will never match the quality of a good photoshop

Did you mean this for the magic Magical Politicians thread.

Er, whoops... But yeah, I stand by my statement

Totally agree. What's the fun of doing something when there is not work or skill in it.

Pfft! You arty farty elitists will never understand the elegance of using a free downloadable program.

Plus, I don't have Photoshop.

Bah, while you twiddle your thumbs over making images of only a minor quality increase, I could be cranking these things out like a mad man.

A few of mine, using MtG Editor.





I plan on making a whole set of these babies.

"3, Tap: Return Cortana to your hand. This ability may be used as an instant."

Wtf? You do realize that creature abilities already can be used anytime an instant can, right?

Its a bitch trying to find a picture of one of those large queen replicators.

Since when? I distinctly remember cards with that wording, in sets that aren't that old.

Not to be picky, but wouldn't it be better to remove target Jedi with less than X toughness from the game? I would set the bar high, sure, but not unblockable. Just a thought.
