What's
in the set? - rarity, distribution by faction, and obligatory statistics
Nitpicker's Guide - errors big, small, and ludicrously
small
Storyline summary - the story behind this set, summarized
in a couple of paragraphs
Card list - opens in new
window
Etc - whatever's left, random thoughts and comments, sometimes
my opinions on this set or cards in it, and/or the State of Shadowfist at the
time of this expansion
Empire of Evil is a booster-only expansion set planned for release sometime in 2008. The storyline involves the Lotus, but that's all we know.
The rest of this article is just placeholders for now.
Booster packs contain 10 randomly assorted cards (retail $3.49 per pack); each display box contains 24 boosters ($65 direct from Shadowfist Games). The wrappers use the flimsy silvered material like Shaolin Showdown, but with full color printing. Card distribution seems to be similar to the previous 128 card sets: two boxes will get you 3-4 of each uncommon and 5-6 of each common, and you'll be short 3 or 4 rares but have enough extra to trade for the missing ones.

I didn't find a secret box or secret booster message. If you noticed one, please let me know.
Here's the breakdown by faction and by card type. The table on the left shows the overall breakdown (for new players), the table on the right shows the breakdown of the new cards only (for not new players). Apologies for the formatting of the table, but it's much smaller to plop an image in than write a table in HTML. Eventually I'll try out the CSS thing and redo all my tables...
Looking at this graphically may or may not help you, but I like it. Click either graph to see a larger version in a new window. These plots include errata and reprints.
