Have to contact them on Tuesday about those.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m trying to decide how to ration these out between 3 months so I have cards to open each month (good thing that September starts on Monday).<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve already opened 1 box of DBZ starters (not sure what to do with the other 4&#8230;) and the Hecatomb boosters. I&#8217;ll open maybe one more thing today (which will probably be the Inuyasha starters) and figure out what I want to open for September later.<\/p>\n<p>Also, Hecatomb boosters have 13 cards (nice) distributed in a 9\/3\/1 common\/uncommon\/rare fashion (not so nice). I fully expect to have 14 copies of some of the commons by the time I&#8217;m through this box of 24 boosters&#8230; and I also expect to be missing cards from the 72 card set. Meh.<\/p>\n<p>Also also, DBZ TCG looks like it&#8217;s a lot better than the old DBZ CCG&#8230; my only concern is that it seems each character needs their own physical attack lookup table now. Each of the 6 characters that have starter decks (Goku, Vegeta, Krillin, Piccolo, Raditz, Nappa) comes with a table, but what happens when I have other characters from boosters (Gohan, Trunks, Bulma)? Maybe they&#8217;re just not allowed to use attacks with AT damage values?<\/p>\n<p>Also yay 3 day weekend!<br \/>\nIs anyone down in Mountain View planning something?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Edit:<\/strong> So both issues seem to have been accounted for. Hecatomb (at least my box) had one copy of each of the 24 rares in the 24 booster packs, so I got a complete set in one box. Also, all of the DBZ TCG physical attack lookup tables are the same (don&#8217;t know why I didn&#8217;t notice this before) so any physical attack table can be used for any character.<\/p>\n<p>So yeah, I&#8217;m excited about some of these games. Someone should play with me at some point :D<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I has cards!
