Still no posts

I just haven't had time for new material, as I'm heading to Florida for a much-needed vacation and am remodeling my house. Check back in late May as I hope to have something up by then.

Working my way back - Hi-res map of Arcadia

My wrist has healed rapidly, so look for more posts later this week. In the meantime, at the request of reader Kokeshi, I have updated the Arcadia map link in the sidebar to point to a higher resolution map in Google Docs. This is the highest resolution I have available, taken from the original postings by Moxtaveto.

No New Posts For Awhile

I won't be posting for a couple of weeks - last week I broke my wrist and I have surgery this coming week. I can type with my other hand but it's so slow compared to my normal speed.

Hopefully I'll be back in a couple of weeks with some new material.

Arcadia Online

Reader Nin has a request for anyone who can help. In his words:

"Years ago a German forum friend of mine started an Arcadia Online script (Java).... unfortunately it was never finished, but I got the beta version. Do you know someone who could finish this project?"

Below are some screen shots for the project. If anyone is interested in resuming the work, please send me an email and I will forward it to Nin...

Small Update

Hey everyone, sorry for the lack of posts...it's been a rough few months. Between mold in my house and back surgery, then the holidays, there really hasn't been much time for posting. Here's what's going on:

1. Arcadia gets a mention and a link from the Darker Days podcast. Darker Days talks about all things White Wolf. Thanks to Mark, Mike, and Chris for doing that! You can find the podcast here.

2. Errata for the cards that we have discovered to have errors.

3. I'm trying to get in interview with Mike Tinney, the creator of Arcadia and president of White Wolf.

4. Continuation of Solo Play in the Legend of Arcadia.

Arcadia Printing Errors

So far we've discovered printing errors for Lost! and Thomas, the Lame Brigand. After discussions with Moxtaveto, it seems like there are many more cards with problems. This doesn't mean that every copy of a card has the problem...for example, some copies of Lost! are misprinted while others are not. Below is a list of cards that Moxtaveto has found errors on:

1 error in KING IRONHEART'S MADNESS:


"Vigorous" (Ability): besides the correct version, there is also a version
with the text "EXHAUSTED" on both sides! This can easily be overseen,
because the front side has the correct image which differs slightly from the
one on the back side like on all cards.


2 errors in ARCADIA THE WYLD HUNT:


"Dragonkin" (Enemy): besides the correct version, there is also a version
with correct Dragonkin on the front side, but with "Redkaps" on the back
side!


"The Ruins of Plugrath" (League): besides the correct version, there is also
a version with the "Ruins of Plugrath"-text on one side, but with the image
of "Nowhere Junction" on the front!


Besides these errors, there are 16 Waylay cards from "ARCADIA THE WYLD HUNT"
which come in 2-3 versions. Different are the terrain icons in the middle
column of the card.


11 cards come in 2 versions:


Banek
Giant Slug
Gord's Knot
Pilgrim's Burden
Pirates
Quicksand
Rockslide
Spidereye Goblin
Spike Trap
Unicorn
Waterrunner


5 cards come in 3 versions:


Forest Spiders
Huntsman's Snare
Icarian Flying Skiff
Lost!
Thomas the Lame Brigand


In addition, Moxtaveto has modified my Excel file to include the variations of the cards. I have posted a link to this updated file over in the sidebar. Many thanks to Moxtaveto once again for all his hard work!

New Content Coming Soon

It's hard to believe it's been 3 months since I last posted! Time sure gets away from me due to my other hobbies, and the fact that I haven't been home due to a major mold infestation that required a crew to come out and clean, limiting my computer & internet access.

I'm out of town this weekend, but I'll try to have some new content up in a week or two. Thanks for your patience until then!
