Thank you, Justin!

If you want more, they're still on "preorder status" on http://www.thirdway.it" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ;) use the code gold_integration to save a little and avoid shipping costs. I will rise the price a little when they'll be ready to ship.

Extra Suicide Queens unlocked
I love the Omnia Golden Age decks - all round fantastic! As always, great work Giovanni.

I'm just wondering about the suicide queens. I'm all for getting extra cards, but what is the idea behind these exactly, and how can they be used?

The Kickstarter update about them here says "All the extra queens are "suicidal" and gaff, with metallic ink on the background."

In what sense are they gaffed? And how might they be used for magic tricks, for example?

Bit of a loaded question EG ....
I know Giovanni as a prolific creator who gives generously of his art ....
Most Thirdway decks consistently include extra cards for the use of third party variations in their magic .... up to 56 or so sometimes.
The Meroni use of Queens in addition to Kings for suicide hearts we have encouraged him there ourselves, with enthusiasm.
Asking Magicians and Illusionists for their reveals/sleights, well ....
Maybe I'm reading your query obliquely ?
Sorry for that. :D
O, I beg of you your comprehensions,
yet laugh at your contempts ....
my only competition is with myselves.

But Lèse-majesté, especially >Normans, natch.

Is jarnstill the Ars of the Hors Nebulous ?
Neigh .... the Effluxor of the Omniverse ??

I'm not asking for any secrets. I'm just wondering if I've missed something obvious. Is it basically just a duplicate card with a different background/artwork, or is there more?

Obviously there are lots of card magic routines that utilize duplicates, but the interesting thing about this card is that it has a different background, so I'm trying to think of a way to incorporate that somehow in a magic routine. Or would most people just consider this a fun bonus card for collectors?

Thanks, I think you may be correct about the *bonus* card, an extra simply as more Meroni Art ....
It would be nice to see to see these included in magic routines ....
It is not for me to comment on the practicalities of such innovation.
Please do keep us informed here, as you do so generously yourself. :D

Hello there :-)

There is a special queen (I called them in italian, "Regina") in every Omnia Deck. "Gold" in Oscura (Regina Suicida Aurea), "Silver" in Illumina (Regina Suicida Argentea), "Red" in Suprema (Regina Suicida Scarlatta), "Copper" in Antica (Regina Suicida Ramata), "Green metallic" in Perduta (Regina Suicida Smeralda) and "Yellow Gold" in Magnifica (Regina Suicida Lunare).

Every queen is different and gaff. I included them mainly for add some extra art to every Omnia deck - I also wanted to test metallic/solid inks on backgrounds of cards (FYI SINS Anima red background was made because I've tested it on Omnia Suprema Suicida Scarlatta).

I am not expert at all about magic tricks, but I thought that make a "gaff" queen (with the "bottom" part different than the "above") might be useful for some magic tricks (maybe have a queen that magically change hairstyle and hide behind her sword?) - I would be really curious to see a trick with my gaff cards. If someone is capable of that and it will share a video, I would be more than happy to share it on my socials :mrgreen:

I never revealed the backstory of those queens - like all the Omnia cards, it's the same reincarnation of the same character, in the different "Omnia Dimensions".

I included extra cards in almost all my decks (extra God Court in Dedalo, extra jokers in Pantheon, SINS, Eva, Lunatica) and I will probably continue to do that :-)

Hope it helps!

I want to wish to all UC members awesome holidays, and I will come back in 2018 with Lunatic, Delirious and New surprises ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)
