Switch and Hammer reprints are nice

Switch, yes, Crushing Hammer, no. I know there are plenty of times when Crushing Hammer has been "safe", but there have also been times when it facilitating some pretty dubious lock situations. Even if it hadn't, the game needs fewer coin flips, not more.

So "Fine Band" according to the anonymous source in Japan, does +10 dmg to the opponent's actie. Kind like 1/2 Muscle Band...

Or like a Strength Charm that doesn't discard itself at the end of the turn.

...

Humor the old-timey player. XD

i meant more for having a nearly identical format to japan

My mistake. Yes, even a whiner like me acknowledges it is better when the two Formats as close in cardpools as the powers-that-be will allow them to be.
