I am an avid collector at heart loving alternate art, extended art, foilÂ and any other promo card! It shouldn’t be hard to understand why my $500 pledge for the kick-starter went against 2 of the collector tiersÂ This is my first article focussed on HexTCG and I am excited to start expanding (no pun intended!) on the original Extended Art feature.Įach card in HexTCG has a “Double Back”, listing a set of challenges that enable the unlocking of a Foil effect, Extended Art, or both (i.e. Perhaps more importantly this article also showed the Extended Art and sparked a discussion about this rarely discussed feature within HexTCG.Īs a brief interlude, I am Hammer, and I have been playing TCGâ€™s and dTCGâ€™s for more than 10 years. All attack and defense from each troop is added for the new troopâ€™s defense, and any abilities any one troop has are retained on the new troop.Ī recent article here on Hex Vault showed a somewhat forgotten image of the Set 1 art for the Wild PvP troop â€œPack Raptorâ€ (rather than the Kickstarter Exclusive Alternate Art version). The divided troops will also have and abilities the original troop had, and they share their â€œstateâ€ (attacking, blocking, exhausted) with the original troop.Ĭombine – combine all other troops in play under your control with the same name into one troop. The idea involves adding 2 keywords – Divide and Combine.ĭivide X – this troop splits into X troops, with the original attack and defense evenly divided (or unevenly, if itâ€™s not an even division) among those X troops. The idea around this mechanic is to help make a traditional â€œslime monsterâ€, though it could be used for any number of unique creatures – including vickrpgâ€™s original idea of a â€œbandâ€ troop where the band splits off into its individual members. It was going off of an idea vickrpg had of a â€œsplittingâ€ troop.

Greetings, and welcome to my guest “Card Mechanics” article on Hex Vault! Colin asked me to write up a more thorough concept design of a mechanic I proposed on the forums.
