Dave's Fallen Empires list, with descriptions and rarity info

+5: Included into 5th Edition

"Rares" are U1, uncommons are U2 (land) or U3 (colored cards). There is one
common artifact (Delif's Cone); all other commons are C3 or C4 - except that
the C3s have three different pictures, and the C4s have 4 different pictures,
so that counting by pictures the commons are *all* C1. There are eleven lands,
eleven artifacts, four "rares" for each color, five uncommons for each color,
and four C3s and three C4s for each color; 187 different pictures, but only
102 actual different cards. The various Commons with flavor text have different
flavor text for each different picture; varieties of Commons are listed by
picture features and artist's initials.

The expansion's symbol is a three-pointed crown.
