[ quoted text not captured ] a very slight correction? i believe they were not "totally random," as certain cards were never in the "booster decks" and were only found in the "booster packs." i believe it was something like 10 of the rares that _never_ appeared in the decks.... but that was a looooonng time ago....... -john

There was never such a dichotomy between starter decks (IIRC, that's what they were called) and booster packs. It may have been true that the ratios of rares/uncommons/commons/vampires was a little skewed and/or that the number of rares was different in Jyhad starters vs. V:tES starters. But the rare sheet was the same for both types. Perhaps you were thinking of some other game? Fred

The Jyhad starters contained 45 Commons, 13 Uncommons, 16 Vampires (where "vampire" also includes 10 or so political actions that appeared on the vampire sheet), and 2 Rares. The 1995 VTES starters contained 3 rares. They also had a special sheet of "starter" commons that fed into the common slots in addition to the normal commons, IIRC. Not sure as to the ratios of the commons, uncommons, and vampires, however.

[ quoted text not captured ] While we're on the topic of Jyhad era pack contents, does anyone know the breakdown for Jyhad boosers? Thanks
