Default Conan Full-Set Back Design

Hi guys! I was wondering whether anyone knows whether the full-set of Munchkin Conan coming out in 2012 will have their own unique back design, or whether they will have the standard Fantasy Munchkin back like how the booster is going to be? Thanks!

The full game in 2012 will have a new back design for the cards.

Andrew said that wasn't decided yet, but that the 15-card booster is based on the movie being released tomorrow, while the core set will be based on the range of Robert E. Howard's work.

So I saw today that this will, in fact, end up using the regular Fantasy backs.

Can't decide whether I'm excited about that or not. It seems a sensible idea, though, given how perfectly seamless they SEEM like they would be for blending purposes...

Hopefully this decision will mean that now NONE of the cards from the Booster will be in the Conan Core set, as they would now be totally redundant.

That's the plan. Well, that's almost the plan: there's one card that we may repeat with new art, but we think it's one we can get away with repeating.

A new core set with normal Fantasy backs? Wow. I'd consider just mixing it into all my fantasy cards, and I bet things would get SO out of hand! I'll probably just keep the overarching D&D theme, though. :)

At least as far as I'm concerned, it was a good marketing move, since with it being distinct from Fantasy Munchkin I was feeling unmotivated to buy it (not being a Conan fan). Yet somehow, just making it have the same card backs as Fantasy has greatly increased the likelihood that I will break down and buy it, since I have all the Fantasy Munchkin expansions to date...

I am so weak.

I sort of wish all Munchkin cards had the same back...
