Amaranth DB 2.0 Released!

But WHY does the Nosferatu royalty breed deck (already a not-so-powerful deck) have an absolute offender of a card, namely Secret Horde? Shouldn't those two copies be another copy of Warsaw Station, and a Direct Intervention instead?

Sure, some of the decks could be improved. Most are user submitted and providing they meet below the criteria below then they're approved:

• Decks should be close to 60 cards in size (less to print)
• Decks should focus on one or two mechanics only
• Cards should be fairly simple and not contain walls of text
• Include deck description and rough overview on how to play

A lot of decks submitted aren't even legal — some with 100+ cards, invalid grouping, 20 crypt cards etc... the list goes on. I was torn about having it curated or not initially; however over time and seeing what's been submitted I think it was the right call.

One thing I would like to expand on in Amaranth is the social side of things. For example there's an experimental feature that allows multiple people to work on the same deck/s — that is pretty cool. I think public feedback on the quick start decks would also be useful.

Amaranth now has over 1000 registered users (whoot!) so it would be great to build on that further.

Ke, first i need to mention that I love the app and what you have done.
Then I must ask, when the Lost Kindred arrives at Amaranth?

The Lost Kindred has been on Amaranth for probably six month or so — but the cards were / are only accessible if you were / are part of the play test group.

In terms of adding the official release, I need to wait for for the CSV files to be be updated here www.vekn.net/card-lists before much else can happen.

I was on the playtest group ( Samir Sardinha on facebook ), but i think i'm using a different email to access the site or something similar to it...

Drop an email to amaranth at the vtes.co.nz domain with your username and I can enable it. Hopefully it won't be too long much longer until Lost Kindred is enabled publicly.
