I'm still here.

Well whatever it is, I doubt highly that you ever hear anything from SJ
Games that the game is officially defunct (like you keep the options open).

It's a neat game, and thanks to the last 2 years, there's plenty of card
goodness to build an entire expansion on...however...

the game does suffer the same way most other games suffer: without something
to keep it going, it peters out and players find something else to entertain
them.

I think the game is fascination, and once you get over that learning curve,
it can be quite challenging. However, gaming today is about trying to get
players to be able to jump into a game as quickly as possible -no time to
take and learn a system or read the rules.

I wouldn't say the game suffered because of it's expansions, but the notion
that the game was more about deck construction, and less about collecting
the cards doesn't seem to appeal to very many (even if it's more fair and
inherently superior). Oh well -good ideas take longer to be accepted over
accepting the same ol' crap changed around or gussied up.
