anyone have culdcept saga?

ok I'll give a little bit more information in hopes that someone gets interested.

The game could best be described as MtG meets Monopoly.  You move around the board purchasing territory and placing creatures on the spots to collect a toll whenever someone lands on the spot.  By spending the cash you can upgrade areas to provide better defense and raise the toll value.  You collect cash at checkpoints, the amount based on how upgraded and how many lands you have. 

there are other mechanics you pick up pretty quick on-  placing the right color of creature on the right color spot gives bonuses, having spaces next to each other gives bonuses, etc.

There are also spell and item cards to change the flow of the game.  Spells that do anything from change your move values to curse your creatures to giving you straight cash.  Likewise some of the creatures have usable abilities so it's not always "compare strength to HP and move on."

Every time you complete one of the missions, you're given some extra cards to use, a booster I guess.  I don't know if they're entirely random as to what you get.  I don't know if you get extra cards for playing online against other players yet.

There are plenty of cards from what I've seen so far, and there are varying rarities to make certain cards harder to collect.

You can download the demo for free to see if you're even interested.  I bought my copy from Gamestop for $17 used.  I've definitely gotten at least 17 worth out of it and I haven't even started multiplayer yet.  If you can't find it for that cheap, I know you can find it online for $30.

EDIT::::

I was looking over the rulebook and found out you can edit the game to create your own rules-sets.  I'll have to play with that. 

Wow this game seems so big I'm wondering how it didn't get more attention...
