Quote from AssassinNinja4827Quote from SakabatouI understand your sentiment, but that kind of environment unfortunately doesn't exist (and won't exist). The very fact that other (bad) people have guns is what makes me feel that possession of one is somewhat necessary. It would be pretty bad to get into a situation in which you did not expect to need one, but do, and you don't have one. SOL
You mean that it doesn't exist in the United States? Because as far as I know one really doesn't need a gun in most places in Europe. Or would you argue that we would be better off if the average citizen here also had access to firearms?

Britain, which is in Europe, is one of the most violent countries in the world. Just because your attacker doesn't have a gun doesn't mean you don't need one either. Just recently in China some scumbags with knives killed like 27(?) people at a bus station. The doctrine of overwhelming force should always apply. I carry a gun and trust me I am going to bring it to bear against anyone who is trying to cause me physical harm no matter what weapon he is using to do it. If I feel like my life is in danger I will use my gun (I hope I have the training and ability to do so) But I am not a cowboy walking around trying to intimidate people. I never ever insert myself into a situation that may escalate, I never let anyone know I have a gun on my person. And if a situation seems like it may turn sour I leave.
Once at an all night diner a couple of my buddies picked a fight with a gang of college kids. I had my carry weapon on me. My friends expected me to have their backs. I walked out to my car and left. I would never rely on the fact that I am carrying to save my stupid friends from a stupid situation and I wouldn't put my gun in the middle of a street fight.

Since we won't likely have the full 8 players to utilize all 360 cards, I figure it's not too important that colors are completely balanced. I don't really know anything about this kind of cube, so I don't expect to be able to knock it down to 270, but if there are any glaring exclusions or poor choices, we'd appreciate a quick nudge to make the experience more enjoyable.

I made those specifically for drafting, with the idea that they get replaced by the real card (in a clear sleeve) once you cast them, as you would with checklist cards. That way, nothing is ever desleeved/resleeved.
