Whats in Empire of Evil?
Empire of Evil is a booster-only expansion set planned for release sometime in 2009. The set has been playtested and the cards are in proofreading. Latest word as of late June 2009 is that the set will not be ready for GenCon 2009, but will likely be late August or early September. Braz King provided a storyline summary on 3 Sep 2008 in the Shadowfist Forum (reposted below), and a full set of spoilers. Other tidbits: Mad Scientist will be reprinted as a promo card in this set, with the existing art. (Braz King 9 Jul 2008) The rest of this article is just placeholders for now. Booster packs contain 10 randomly assorted cards (retail $3.49 per pack); each display box contains 24 boosters ($65 direct from Shadowfist Games). The wrappers use the flimsy silvered material like Shaolin Showdown, but with full color printing. Card distribution seems to be similar to the previous 128 card sets: two boxes will get you 3-4 of each uncommon and 5-6 of each common, and you’ll be short 3 or 4 rares
