The White Hand: Alatar

Character: Avatar

Unique. Hazards your companies defeat (even with *) are worth full kill Marshaling points. I you have more than 7 , all detainment attacks against your companies attack normally instead. If at one of his Wizardhavens [W] when a hazard creature attacks one of your companies, he may immediately join that company. Alatar must face a strike from the creature (in all cases). Following all of the creature's attacks, Alatar must tap (if untapped) and make a corruption check. Home Site: Any non-"Dragon's lair" Ruins & Lairs
Home Site: Any non-"Dragon's lair" Ruins & Lairs
should be
Home Site: Any non-"Dragon's lair" Ruins & Lairs in Wilderness.

Against the Shadow: Ride Against the Enemy
Rarity: Common, Precise: C3

Hazard: Short-event

Playable on a company moving through a Wilderness if you have a character in your hand. Reveal the character. A single-strike hazard creature with the attributes of the revealed character, except the prowess is increased by 7. Other cards have no effect on this attack. The attack is detainment if the revealed character and the company are both minion or both hero. If defeated, place the character in your opponent's Marshaling point pile-he receives the character's Marshaling points as kill points. Otherwise, discard the character.


"A single-strike hazard creature with the attributes of the revealed character, except the prowess is increased by 7."

should be:

"A single-strike hazard creature attack is made with the attributes of the revealed character, except the prowess is increased by 7."

No text error, but it looks like medf_mountaineer picture was corrupted while updating.

Thanks yes, this has been noted. As these are completely NEW re-ripped core images/cards.

They are secretly, codenamed:

2021.0 Cardnûm Core Classic, which will entail, either:
2021.1 Cardnûm Core Classic or 2022.0 Cardnûm Core Classic, etc

Then there are also:

2021.0 Cardnûm Core Erratum, coming.

There's some new restructuring too, as in, within the next 6 months the Open Source project will directly download all images, from cardnum.net. instead of the old GCCG REPO, as we are semi-abandoning GCCG. There will be expanion(s) updates for GCCG when the DC team FULLY RELEASES a printed expansion and finalizes images, but unless that happenes there won't be periodic updates to GCCG, just FINALS.

But the core images are getting re-processed and streamlined, so there will be:

This Initial (posting), Corrections, and Erratum.

Thanks, Enjoy, Laters...

As I already mentioned on another topic, The Dark-domain symbol [-me_dd-] was erroneously replaced with the Dark-hold [-me_dh-] one in the english edition:

AFAIK, this printing error was never mentioned in the official errata...

The errata says:
Summons from Long Sleep
Card Erratum: Change "When the reserved creature is played, another Dragon or Drake may be reserved." to "Discard this card after the reserved creature attacks."
Reserving the creature does not count against the hazard limit.
@ A creature on Summons from Long Sleep cannot be discarded to satify Dragon-feuds; discarding is not playing. [CoE] %
It is still obviously the original text. Just for reference, here is the card from the challenge-deck edition that looks correct:

Elizabeth Danforth denied herself her collaboration with B. Churashev (at least for this art).
KNOWN ERRORS:
[snap]
By the Ringwraith's Word: The card itself shows the artists as “B. Churashev and L. Danforth.” Not true; I did not collaborate with this person and I did no part of that image.

AFAIK, this error is still unmentioned in the official errata...

@nico21000

Probably not valid thread for reporting such issues. ICE's practices are out of control of developer of Cardnum.
ICE had in its history some episodes like that:
https://councilofelrond.org/forum/viewt ... 143&t=3329
where three different versions of some card have been released plus errata that has different meaning depending on version to which it is applied.

@Konrad Klar:

I'm afraid you're misunderstanding my reports. I don't have any legitimity to decide what should be written on the cards and I am myself very far from being an expert at the rules.

It just looks like someone apparently decided to include errata directly on the hi-res core cards new images from the last update. Here are a few examples:
  • Radagast's Black Bird, Sly Southerner and Squint-eyed Brute now have their proper mind value effectively written on the cards.
  • Assassin is now effectively worth 2 MP.
  • Ice-orcs' [-me_rl-] text symbol is now properly written instead of the [-me_sh-] one.
and so on...

But some of the errata were forgotten/omitted, and I was invited by Nicolai himself to report such things to Tom. These are basically... text errors I guess? Did I miss something?

My misunderstanding. Sorry.

Personally I would prefer the scans of original cards, not players-crafted images.

But this is under control and responsibility of developer... :|
