That looks GREAT! :thumb: I really didn't expect the cover to be color and I love the use of the old logo.

honestly, you guys have a flare for doing the nice "little" things to make stuff even better...things that don't immediately jump out, that make the work even better...like the logo on the card backs and the theatre masks for darque and shadowman...impressive!

The only change I would have suggested for the cover would be a bolder font due to the green-red colour discord. But that is just me.
