Why snip anything? The trends seem to accept repetitious wording here.
I brought this point up early on when I went searching for the Underworld
cards. Of all the stores I visited, only two (same store name actually)
carried Underworld. A few of the stores that originally carried the First
Run decided the game was not worth it - it barely sold. Without getting
into the Magic hype and whatnot, unless the game is firmly established, and
even that is questionable, around here card games seem to be on the way
out. And this is the southwest suburbs of Chicago - home town of FASA.
Food for thought, but around here...
