Great podcast!

Interesting to hear that Tabapp elite will have different dials.

Eh? Gonna go order a new Superman dial then!

Good show; good questions. Most interested in the new PAC. Did they have a timetable on the release of that?

No, just coming in 2013. I would assume it would happen w/ the release of a new starter pack.

Does Iron Man 3 have a starter?

Yeah, I think the biggest news is the new PAC!

I wonder what is changing?

So, we should hassle guests that are interested in making routine appearances on the show? Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.

Besides, they've gone on record multiple times saying that at this point the new ATAs will most likely be included in the next PG. I've never been a fan of beating dead horses.

No word on if the 2012 con exclusives would be made available some other way like the 2011 ones were?

Some clarification

1: Not quite...we're still looking at options but those you outline above are certainly in the mix.

2: YGO will likely be roped off but not because of age. It is a big enough line to support itself. As always, we'll adjust if it makes good sense to do so.

We have received our Retailers Agreement, and are enthusiastically pleased with it.

Speaking for ourselves, I am excited to see if this returns some value to the OP Prize LE Figures!!

In recent years, the proliferation of these figures has made the in-store prize a little lackluster.

I remember back in the day, when players were excited to get their LE. Recently, I am often greeted with a, "Oh, yeah, I already have this figure", because they have all gone out and bought them on the cheap.

Thanks, Wizkids. Excited to see where this goes.

I think he meant more along the lines of Modern and Golden age and how Trek is not part of either, neither will YGO (at least that's the impression I got)

What powers will they tweek or change to create a more close combat game?

They already reduced the average range. Not many 10's any more.

Maybe a change to charge. Instead of 1/2 movement, maybe you just -2 from your movement value.

I always thought every figure should have built in move and attack abilities.

I would like to see a power that allows you to drag a figure with you if it took damage from a charge attack.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed, but the biggest change should be this:

Pulse Wave: Give this character a power action...

This right here is one of the biggest culprits for adding to the 'range game' because it interacts with Running Shot and had no counters except for Barrier and The Hand or LoA ATA's. Eliminate that possibility, and Pulse Wave still remains threatening as it cuts through *everything*, but it's mobility is hindered somewhat.


Based on the interview, and the fact that they are aware of the beastly range game I will be severely disappointed if they don't identify exactly what I just pointed out and change it accordingly.

Re: "The Flood of Product"

It's like a movie theater. New movies come out every Friday, but you can't expect to go see every movie ever released, on release day, unless you devote an extraordinary amount of time and money to do so.

Re: The ranged game - More maps with varied terrain can make a difference as well.

Re: PAC change. Have you ever seen an olympic archer fire a bow while treading water? Please update water terrain or the swim ability!
