Re: Fontaine Undercover Editions

Ah darn, the IG comments beat me to it about the NOCxFontaine collab. Well, he's got the whole spectrum to play with for this variant.

Also, he needed 2 people to help with the art direction? Really? Or just to convince him that this was a good idea and Alex won't sue? :D

Re: Cartamundi Factory Relocation

Ah, thanks for confirming that. Interestingly enough, the Slavic Gods KS said that they'll be using the Copag 310 stock. I was surprised when I saw that as I missed it the first time. As I also have a 310 Neo deck, I'll definitely be doing a comparison when it arrives.

Re: Cartamundi Factory Relocation

This got interesting. KS had a couple of card projects from Poland that used Cartamundi Poland branch to print. They had no problems getting the work done. Thornwood's relaunch addressed that issue directly in the 4th update: I know some of you were concerned about reports from other campaigns regar...
