I won't talk about every
card, just ones that got more than a simple refresh or I have a
concern about. The rest I'll just post here so you can see how the
new version looks without comment.

Lugubrious may be a bit tricky. I
wonder how useful it would be, and perhaps it needs an extra
Endurance to bring it up to snuff.
I removed the special rules from both
of these Locations. Spikers for special rules are definitely the way
to go. However, removing the special text from Bottom of the
Universe left a bit of a problem, since there was no flavor text on
it to begin with. I tried lowering the black bar on the bottom, but
it didn't look right being too far down, so I opted for some flavor
text instead. My original idea for Bottom of the Universe was a bar
similar to the Mos Eisley cantina, but once I got this art for it, I
decided to expand on that and suggest a city or perhaps a whole
planet called the Bottom of the Universe. In this regard, it might
be something like Grime or Plains of Filth. So I think the flavor
text here helps bring that idea a little closer.
I never noticed the flying fish of the
background of the art of Mystics before! It seems to be a recurring
theme with this game...
The artwork for Excursion is such a
beautiful wide panorama that even with all the room on the new
layout, there still wasn't enough room to show the whole thing. I
came up with a longer bit of flavor text just so the ratio of width
to height on the area of the picture would be closer to the ratio of
the art, and there's still so much I cut off of it. Well, at least
it's far better than the original layout, where I could barely fit
anything.
I gave Rapture the same Spiker
requirement as Pestilence, since it's the same thing, but for Zealots
instead of Devotees.
For Slowpokes, I removed the part in the special rules
about how you can't Frenzy it or Crusade with it. I think not being
able to Reinforce with it is enough of a problem. Adding not being
able to Frenzy or Crusade would just make it near impossible to play,
in that no Player would ever choose it for their deck. This gives it
a fighting chance to act as bit of a shield.
I messed up in a previous post when I
said the title text could support “Servants of the Infinite”
comfortably. Oh well, I hope the shrinking of the text here isn't
too noticeable.
I really like that Lifters is a Red
card. This card would be most useful as a Red card, and I bet any
Red player would love to have this in their deck and protect it at
all costs. Though, perhaps it might make Red cards become a target
for conversion by Green now, rather than Red being to dumb to be
converted...
