Talk:Mad Scientist deck
Archived comments from the original site
Here are some other cards for this deck from its creator, Twenty8. Incidentally, that is the name I go by on the Web, Kevan. Military Surplus (Action): Draw four cards. Discard any that are not goal-required Things, and put the rest into play immediately. Earthquake Ray (Action): Target opponent destroys one non-goal Thing at random. Mind-Control Sattelite (Goal): Requires Space Launchpad, Violin Music, Antenna Farm, Recording Studio Recording Studio (Thing) --Twenty8, 19.11.03
Also, Vicious Guard Dog should be modified to allow a player to destroy a non-goal Thing at random to prevent destruction of VGD. --Twenty8, 18.12.03
No new goal-required Things may be played until a Goal has been played. --Twenty8, 3.1.04
The Mind-Control Satellite is a Goal, not an Action, actually. Also, there are more new cards in the mailing list. --Twenty8, 13.1.04
Not bad, although a player that doesn't have the bwah-hah-hah-hah! card is doomed to lose no matter what. Also, what does the recording studio do? --5th Earth, 3.2.04
Good call. The deck should probably include two or three of these cards to reduce the likelyhood of hoarding. The Recording Studio is a requirement of the Mind-Control Satellite and Hypnotic Hit Single goals, only one of which has been added so far. --Twenty8, 3.2.04
Also, the victory card should say that a player can have no more than 1 in their hand. New card: Dumpster-Dive-a-Tron(Thing): Action: Name a card, and select 5 cards from the discard pile, sight unseen. If you find your chosen card, put it into your hand. Discard the others. --Twenty8, 12.2.04
Before trying to play this game, you should add at three Antenna Farm cards (needed for three of the five goals) and two Lightning Bolt cards (needed for two of the five goals). Toss the bwa-ha-ha card. Great idea for a deck, though! --citizenx, 25.2.05
