MTG Tech?? (Idea for a new Tech)

Ok, so we all know that nerdy, yet addictive, card game, Magic: The Gathering. Well, I've been seeing a few MTG characters around on jolt, and I thought why not go the whole 9 and a half cards and try to make a whole new tech??

So, basicly, anyone interested could either pick a nation from MTG (Krosan, Phryxia etc) or make their own up and... well... I think you know the rest...

This thread is mainly for interest to start with. Please, join!!

Interesting....but perhaps not nations? Rather, as a MTG players myself (bows to applause) I would think that it would be easier to say that your a wizard who has the ability to command armies, creatures, spells, artifacts, etc. Just like in the game.

I'm sure it would be kinda hard to find all the fluff and backstory to the nations that some of the cards detail.

HOLY OOC!

Man I had a damn deja-vu when I read this thread. On topic, I think the idea's bad. MTG has no place on NS.

Ok, OnN, When we get a few interested players we will have a vote whether we want nations or planeswalkers/wizards. Im a player myself, and my black deck has never lost... All hail Solarion!!

Hp... If MTG doesent have a place, how come Star Trek, Star Wars, Star Gate, Babylon 5 and all those other sci-fi shows do?? Im just bringing a little magic back into the NS world...

[ Wouldn't this be Fantasy Tech, or Mixed Tech? ]

Those are under FT. They have a place, as races etc are taken from them and put into NS. Magic might have the same role under PT, but not as a tech on its own. Maybe you could try doing this under PT?

In case none of you have realised, magic (actually spelled magick, to distinguish it from parlour tricks magic) does have a place on NS. It's called MagiTech. At least, that's what I christen it.

The White Tower = Perfect, but not only, example.

I might be interested but I say the wizard thing instead of a country...
