Hey! I was wondering if someone can help a noob out. I play heroclix (woo yay :) ) and I am started to get interested in Mage Knight. I was wondering though. I read some stuff about MK 2.0, are all of the older sets going to be compatible with MK 2.0 or are they going to phase out, kind of like in M:TG where the older card sets phase out of play, but there is still 1.5 and revised? I don't know if this makes any sense but I tried to explain it the best I could.

Thanks.

yes, and they will also be effective!

The answer is not completely clear yet. My gut feeling is that the figures will be playable ("compatible"), but they may not be all that useable. There are clearly going to be some figures that get new life that never see play today (i.e. Blade Golems, push Mage Spawn), but many other figures will become worthless from a playability standpoint.

The final rules are not out, but remember it's in WK's interest to get you to buy their new releases. If older figures were completely compatible then people (like me) who have large collections won't bother purchasing new releases. Hence make older figures less useful so we have to buy newer figures.

My 2 pennies worth.

Hey! Thank's for the quick responses. Think I am better off waiting for 2.0 to come out before I spend all of my money ? Hell, I can always get more more :) Time to go shopping! :D
