If you do get any response forward it to me. I am thinking about
throwing together a web page for a NERPS like expansion to SRTCG.
Probably going to be called NERPS, for all the cards use mailing
listers think up. Also let me know if you just can not make the 150 I
would like to contribute to any thing you have. And if FASA wont take
them send them to me for the NERPS site.

I counted 21 attributes possible one any one runner card (14 skill & 7
traits). Thats alot and not any more than Jyhad. Jyhad was a very
good game in the beginning, but WotC keep 99% of its resources tide to
Magic.
That really showed in that the expansions were not tested enough and a
lot of cards were broken. Hopefully that does not happen with SRTCG,
hopefully SRTCG gets better with each expansion.
I have to defend Jyhad it was my favorite CCG until I lost interest
after the bad expansions.
