Hoi,

Here is the list of evil things challenges that I have right now.
Challenges (next to contacts) are some of the hardest cards to come up
with. There is so much balancing that needs to take place. I would
hate to have created 14 other guardian dracoforms or widows traps. Some
can be nasty, but over all I tried to keep them at a level that a simple
merc team or a group of elves could punch through (with some difficulty
but still manage it) with the right skills. I also tried not to come up
with a bunch of cards that make all of the other all ready existing
challenges seem like a cake walk. I think I have created a good start.
But I know that some changes will be made... Anyway read them over and
let me know what you think about them and any changes that need to be
made.
