AN UNOFFICIAL SET IN DEVELOPMENT

From historical image to playable idea

A world first.
A card second.

The work of art is not anonymous scenery. It has a maker, a material and a history. The card is our interpretation of it.

Open the candidate to read its current rules. Open the artwork to see the complete image and its source record.

The project, honestly

The proof of concept exists.
The final set does not.

The next phase is to turn a working file into a final card file through critique, playtesting and careful revision. Every card shown here is a candidate.
