I like this one. Many Fortifications on here could easily be Enchantments, but this plays with its artifact nature.
I always liked the way that Centaur Omenreader was randomly Snow.
FYI, this is a Future Sight reprint.
I do really like this ability, though.
are there other snow creatures in the set? i don't know if this makes sense flavorwise
This project is going on hiatus while I work on other M:TG and gaming projects. If interested in working on this, let me know and I'll think about it :-)
I agree we shouldn't compare things to PtE without adding a mana, but a "1W: exile target attacking or blocking creature. Return it to the battlefield at..." without cantrip would be strictly worse than Turn to Mist, which I don't think anyone thought was ridiculously overpowered? Surely exiling temporarily is significantly less powerful than exiling permanently.
I'm not much of a judge at costing, but 1W cantrip doesn't sound overly aggressive (obviously playtesting may show it's more useful than I expect, but it seems a reasonable cost to start from). I agree the cantrip is a good idea, else this will often be card disadvantage.
I actually prefer the 3-mana cantrip myself. I think PtE was a mistake, and StP was from early on before they understood the strength of different abilities.
What I meant was, those cards have set a precedent (however much yo do or don't like it) and certain portions of the community expect anything similar to be on par or close to the power of those older cards.
Personally, I think this is fine.
I'd certainly prefer the 3-mana cantrip.
The flavour text even fits the set perfectly.
Ah, yes. I'd like to have all new cards, but the reprint will do for now.
Named.
Moved to rare; ability left as permanent change.
Do you think this design works better at the
slot? If so, I could remove the cantrip. I'm just afraid it would be underutilized without replacing itself.
When equipped, it becomes mobile. I imagine it as something like those suits of armor that mysteriously come to life and hunt the protagonist of a typical dungeon crawl. When triggered (equipped), the ghostly suit of armor mounts its equally ghostly steed and begins to attack.
Isn't it then equally reasonable to reference the card Plunder?
Edited for proper wording.
I agree.
could call it Equine Pillager as a reference to the card Pillage
"Plundering" seems like a weird flavor for destroying an artifact.
Nope. Compare with Gustcloak Harrier, Gustcloak Runner, Gustcloak Sentinel etc. Removing from combat does that automatically.
I like this ability. But do you need a clause about it not dealing or taking damage?
Aren't cataphracts mounted units? How does this represent that?
Dogpile?
I don't think Camruth was supporting/arguing the case for StP or PtE, more like saying that, as they exist and set a precedent. Also given cards like excommunicate, vengeance, etc. If this didn't have the cantrip then yeah
would be a good cost, with the cantrip I agree that 
is probably better.
Ravnica had a bit of a token creature subtheme, Lorwyn/Shadowmoor block was all about tribal and had a lot of token generation and future sight block well.....
If token creatures are a big part of the set then yes this would likely be fine at common.
you are correct Alex, it does need that extra bit of text, good catch.
Well, maybe... Bramble Elemental, Sprout Swarm and Stonybrook Schoolmaster were repeatedly making tokens quite recently.
But that doesn't work. At the moment it's telling you - the controller of this card - to sacrifice the enchanted creature. You can only sac things you control. If you want the sac to work to kill opponents' creatures too, then this needs to say "its controller sacrifices it".
This seems fine as is to me. It gets killed by any 1-damage effect, even a Rain of Blades if they time it right.
