Since everyone seemed to like the Dwarven/Elven split from Alliance (and Fithz is going to town on the concepts), I suggest we figure out what the new keywords should do.
Here are my thoughts:
Elven: 10 basic gain + 5 additional gain
When counter flips, the last card played gains Swift.
Dwarven: 5 basic gain + 5 additional gain
When counter flips, wall and tower gain based on rarity of card played. In normal mode: 5-C,10-U,15-R. In long mode: 10-C,20-U,30-R.
Debate!
