Bastion is a pretty amazing port, totally worth 4.99.

having finished Bastion via Steam a while ago and tried iOS one with my iPad 2, i'll say the frame rate is not that smooth. not sure if it performs better with the new iPad (iPad 3) or not..

I have deleted my name from the Summoner Wars tournament and from conversations with JammaTal, am certain he will as well.

This tournament is never going to happen.

From traffic here, it is obvious that interest in the game has faded somewhat and the limitations set at the beginning were probably too restrictive.

If anyone wants to take a stab at redesigning a new tournament, I'd be happy to sign up.

My best bet would be double elimination via challonge and a restriction; choose any faction you want for the first two rounds, but you may not use that faction again in the tournament.

The info should also be posted on boardgamegeek.

Were people still expecting that tourney to start O_o I guess I should have deleted it... sorry. The fact that nobody was advertising it anymore should have been a clue >_>

Anyway, I'm taking a break from the game after playing close to 300+ games. I'm hoping I'll stay away until the next batch of factions but the game finds ways to pull me back

And by the way, thanks for trying, Neo. It would have been fun.

Hi fellow Summoners,
sad as it may be but the hype on Summoner Wars seems to have ended and the game has lost some momentum.
so we should try to revive it a bit by starting a tournament with a much lower entrance hurdle.
so i unsubscribed from the "high tournament" and am ready for any new approach.
even thinking about taking on moderation of this if nobody else would do.
depends on interest level too.
greetings

yes, it could have been a great tournament! and we missed the mark by only a few players! good grief

sapphire_neo · #**1288** 09-09-2012, 08:50 AM

Oh, i forgot to mention that there is a tournament being organized at PHG forums with pool play. Intermediate/Advanced players should head on over.

I know for a fact that they were already working on other factions just after the game appeared so hopefully, we won't have long to wait.

I'll be first on line at the App store.

Meanwhile, my most played faction (by far), is still FK, the very worst faction statistically, but fun and a challenge to play correctly. If I played with just TO and GD (and even PE), I'd have a much better record but would probably be a much more boring opponent.

Am hoping new factions change the game up a lot.

sapphire_neo · #**1290** 09-09-2012, 09:05 AM

The next 4 factions are SG, SE, BD and DD. All of them are fun decks with interesting new playstyles. After that the next 4 should be even more incredible because that batch should include FL which is deliciously unique.
