You can go to RWatcher's website (The Watcher Database, the link is on the right) for the Spoiler List of both new card sets. You can also find the Spoiler List for ALL of the new sets we've released.

Am I correct in seeing that there isn't much for generic cards in the vs sets this round (e.g. the versus edge/event), and that you've opted for heavier weapon support, or have the generics not been posted yet? If so, I do like the heavier emphasis on the weapons that aren't well fleshed out yet.

I didnt get a chance to send RWatcher the texts for the generic cards, sorry. We did include the usual generic cards, although two of them got a text change (which is partially responsible for my not getting the info to the spoiler site).

I am glad to hear you like us doing the weapons. We enjoy exploring new avenues with old weapons as well as creating new weapons for us all to have fun with.

Can you please spoil the new vs. card, and any of the new goodies, or at least provide a heads up when the watcher database is updated?

Thanks!

As soon as I get a chance, I will get some spoilers out. Sorry about the delay

The fixed generic cards from the last set are the same in these two sets, with the exception of these two new versions of Insightful Planning. These are in both versus sets. Below that are the Versus cards and Head Shot cards for each set.

Insightful Planning
EDGE
Play during your May Do/Must Do Phase.
CAPTURE: Place one Edge card your
opponent has in play under this card.
During your next Sweep Phase, both
cards are swept to their owner’s
Discard Pile.

Insightful Planning
EDGE
Play during your May Do/Must Do Phase.
CAPTURE: Place one Special Card your
opponent has in play under this card.
During your next Sweep Phase, both
cards are swept to their owner’s Discard
Pile.

Versus (Kath vs. Bart)
EDGE
Nullify one Situation, Plot, Location, or
Object in play during your turn.

EVENT
Remove one Situation in play. If you do,
your opponent cannot play a gridded
Persona Specific card from their Hand
while this card is in play.

Versus (Reg vs Raph)
EDGE
Nullify one Situation, Plot, Location, or
Object in play during your turn.
EVENT
Remove one Edge card your opponent
has in play. If the chosen Edge is in

it from play also.

If your opponent played an Edge
card in conjunction with an attack or
defense last turn, this attack is now
a Head shot.

Play in conjunction with an upper
attack. If your opponent nullifies one
of your cards in play prior to
defending this attack, this attack is a

I've added these to the spoilers on watcher database.

We have added the images from the new sets up on the website as well. So go take a look if you are still undecided.

Disarming Innuendos (Fitzcairn pic) appears to be misprinted. The grid has an Event icon while text and keyword are Situation. Other than that the sets look cool. Katherine might supplant Alex as my new Plot/Hilt favorite.

That may be a miss on the jpg but the card itself should be correct. I don't always remember to update to jpg when I update the file

First impressions of the new cards in hand:

The Good: Reggie has great potential. Some interesting synergy with Alex Raven. Maybe a nice 2HG deck down the line. The new Versus with it's 2 card removal is pretty sweet in the right situation. The new take on the downside of using Evade are interesting. The added WoC in game cards give a nice boost to the older woc's, and Falchion looks promising with future sets adding hopefully more options. The sets are nicely produced and look great.

The Bad: Not crazy about the WoC's being off hand only. For Bartholomew, and Andre Korda last year, it makes a severely lacking situation for Plot/Hilt format and I hate to see a new persona that is restricted in such a way. The Shield maybe would have been better as an add-on pack with some other updated WoC support cards. A Weapon of Choice Legacy set? Just a thought. Also the Disarming Innuendoes card I mentioned was misprinted, but I will play it as a Sit as that was the clear intention. The Falchion, at the moment, looks a bit weak but only from having so few support cards currently available.

The Ugly: Can't find anything to complain about. A few cards are a little meh, but overall two very cool sets. I still wish Claudia Christian had gotten a spinoff, but what are you going to do? Well done by the Design Team.
