I foresee this leading to both memorable successes and memorable failures in Limited.

2011-02-01 11:54:12: Alex commented on Iron-Studded Grindstone

A version of Whetstone, to give a useful sink for your spare power (and mana).

2011-02-01 11:52:21: Alex commented on Psychofocus Disruptor

Like Temple Bell crossed with Bazaar of Baghdad.

2011-02-01 11:50:13: Alex commented on Hydrogen Blimp

Not sure if this will be too good. Hopefully all the pingers and reach should mean it's okay.

2011-02-01 11:49:09: Alex commented on Skywatcher Patrol

Yup, taken.

In set structure terms, this is one of the three common reach cards to answer the higher-than-normal density of flyers, along with Eagle-Eye Watchman and Skystretch Cabling.

2011-02-01 11:48:05: Alex commented on Eagle-Eye Watchman

Not as good as Longbow Archer, but more common and less intensive mana requirements. One of the three common reach cards to answer the higher-than-normal density of flyers, along with Skywatcher Patrol and Skystretch Cabling.
2011-02-01 11:48:02: Alex commented on Eagle-Eye Watchman

Art: A beady-eyed policeman stares grimly at a distant bird or flying machine, and brandishes an unwieldy-looking steam-propelled crossbow or proto-firearm.

2011-02-01 11:45:26: Alex commented on Skystretch Cabling

Vulshok Morningstar was ludicrously good as a cost-equip common Equipment, so I'm being cautious and costing this at for the moment. One of the three common reach cards to answer the higher-than-normal density of flyers, along with Skywatcher Patrol and Eagle-Eye Watchman.

2011-02-01 11:44:09: Alex commented on Vial Bandolier

Taking my cue from Basilisk Collar that deathtouch equipment may want to be rare. Uncommon artifact slots are somewhat squeezed anyway.

2011-02-01 02:15:10: Jack V commented on Ergetric Resonator

I'm in Cambridge tonight (tues) and possibly next week, I'd definitely like to see a proxy deck (or two) if you do FWIW. I hadn't realised it was complete enough, but I'm definitely v curious to see how it plays. Although I haven't had time to proxy any of my or your sets myself, despite keeping meaning to.

I know what you mean about playtest names; I remember several wizards articles saying it always happened to them until they adopted deliberately abstract names for them. FWIW, clockwork wings is definitely a good name: not quite in flavour for magic, but v good for this set.
