Hey all fellow CoC fanatics and cultists,
I've had the opportunity to play some of the newer LCGs like Star Wars and Netrunner and I immediately noticed something about their cards and card art: they are downright gorgeous.
Especially with the artwork that 'bleeds' right to the edge of the card, giving you that full view of the artwork without white borders.
Now, I know that CoC has a few promo cards that feature this 'bleed' style card art, essentially redoing classic cards in this modern style. We know FFG can do it for our game.
So why haven't they done this fully and completely with the new expansions coming out? Case in point: with the excellent Denizens of the Underworld box, they are sticking with the white bordered cards.
Is there a tournament reason for this? Would the collectors freak out or something?
I'm not hating what we have now....quite the contrary. But if anyone has seen the artwork in SW or NR, you'll know it's stunning and I think CoC can have that too.
