A slight let down. The first is better than Magic the Gathering, and while this updates the awesome, awesome rules succesfully, it is not only uglier, but also slower and clumsier to play and stats are harder to see! The first game looked even more amateurish, but it was endearing and personal and it showed everything very clearly. :( My suggestion: scrap the awkward everyman flash-game looks and hunt for simpler and more efficient board game looks and hire some poor(but good) artist drawing the next game. I also didn't like the campaigns structure. I'm still left for waiting for even further sequel. Nevertheless, Castle Wars series is my favorite card game, easily beating MTG and such. Awesome rules!!!
