May I ask the veterans here about the relative cost of a few of the Pretenders?
Why does the Master Alchemist cost 50, but the Great Sage 35 and the Arch Mage 30? They appear nearly identical, except for the following differences:
M.A. G.S. A.M.
Cost 50 35 30
Defense 10 13 17
Precision 10 14 13
Move 2/12 2/10 3/28
The Arch Mage has considerably faster Move, better Precision than the Master Alchemist, and the highest Defense of the group, yet costs the least. Are there other, hidden differences?
Why is the Manticore free? It looks like a combat monster.
