I just flipped over 50 Cult Encounters with the Arkham Toolkit. I didn't get a single Cult Encounter from Miskatonic. I get Miskatonic cards for other locations, but none for Cult Encounters.
Actually, I can't get a single MH card for Y'ha-nthlei either.
Has anyone ever gotten an MH card for Cult Encounters or Y'ha-nthlei using the Arkham Toolkit? If not, has anyone reported to FFG that the toolkit is broken?
****. I had planned to use the Toolkit for the first time tomorrow during a 6-player game (introducing several new poeple to the joys of Arkham), thinking it would make things faster and more accessible. But now, between this and the app not allowing multiple card draws, I think I'll be prepping my location and gates deck tonight, the old-fashioned way ...

Well, there is only one single card for Y'ha-nthlei in MH.

I don't understand. I'm looking at 20 encounter cards from Miskatonic Horror that have Y'ha-nthlei encounters on them. I can't get any of them to come up in the toolkit.

Sorry, I got confused and thought you were referring to Mythos cards.
Send them feedback (not on iTunes but via the support link) so they know to fix it.
I just emailed them. Hopefully we'll get a speedy resolution.
A week ago, I sent FFG an email about this issue. I have not yet received a response, and there have not been any updates to the app.
At this point, I think I've done pretty much everything I can. It might be that the folks at FFG think the problem is only on my end. If you can't access some of the Miskatonic encounters on the Toolkit, I'd appreciate it if you would email FFG to let them know. The email address I used was [email protected], which I got from the link that Aeaea provided.
Just to reiterate, I can't access any of the Y'ha-nthlei encounters from MH or any of the Cult encounters from MH. There are probably problems with other locations too, but those are the two that I know about. I have been able to access MH cards for Marsh Refinery and Dunwich Village, so at least some of the MH expansion works.
Also, if you *are* able to access MH Y'ha-nthlei encounters or MH Cult encounters on the Toolkit, please, please let me know. At least then I'll know that it's a problem with my installation, not the app. Cheers.
I haven't had a response from anyone. I'm starting to think that no one at FFG or among the fan base knows or cares if the Toolkit is broken (except Deek, Brine, and Aeaea). That's disappointing to me personally, because at this point--as ridiculous as it sounds--it's unlikely that the Toolkit will ever include Miskatonic Horror.

Assuming this is where you sent your email, I'd say no response whatsoever in over a week is amazingly poor. Best of luck resolving this issue.
Thanks. That's the email address I used. Just in case it's not clear, it isn't just an issue for me, but for anyone who uses the toolkit. If some players checked their own copies of the toolkit, we'd have a better idea if the problem is widespread. If it is, fans could email [email protected] to let them know. The great the number of fans that get involved, the likelier it is that the issue will be resolved.
Maybe not many people are using the toolkit? Sorry you haven't had much feedback. I'm sticking to the cards.
My theory is that the tool kit can't handle Miskatonic properly. It doesn't know how to work with cross expansion cards, and so it won't ever pull a black goat dunwich card. It will only pull a dunwich or a black goat miskatonic card. But if it has more than one expansion no dice.
I double checked, you can get black goat and innsmouth cards. I drew a Marsh Refinery that gave me a corruption card. So, just the cult encounters seem to be messed up.
Well after looking into this further, if you click the file cabinet on the main page of the tool kit and double click each expansion you can see what each on adds. How many encounters and gate cards. Well if you double click the Black Goat it shows 30 some odd cult encounters, if you double click Miskatonic it shows no cult encounters.
Either they were forgotten or just never added. The app works fine for everything else. Just use the the little cult encounter cards. It would be nice to have those and the exibit encounters added at some point though.
So, crisis solved.
I've also gotten MH Marsh Refinery cards. I can't get MH Cult encounters or MH Y'ha-nthlei encounters. So, I have to disagree that the crisis is solved. Also, there are probably other locations that haven't been updated either. I'm just not aware of them at the moment.
