Conceptually, the designers thought of all these units as High Elves. But of course, the world of Norrath is home to other kinds of Elves -- and we had an eye on a future that would allow us to include those others in Legends of Norrath as well. If you ve been keeping up with the Forsworn previews so far, then you ve already seen the opposite end of the spectrum. The Dark Elf Noble is one of several Dark Elves in the set. As you might expect, they re all shadow. But what about the happy medium filled by neutral units? Forsworn has representation in this area as well, in the form of Wood Elves. Here s a sample Wood Elf Ranger You may not be able to afford the 3 power to shoot one of the Ranger s arrows on every single turn, but let s face it -- it costs a fair amount of power because the ability is really useful. This is one of a very small number of cards able to deal damage outside of combat repeatedly (not just one time). The Ranger can be used to surgically take out a wounded or low-health unit before you begin a combat -- or in situations where engaging in combat with your opponent is not the best strategic choice. And note that the Ranger doesn t have to exert to use this ability. Later in the game, when you have more power at your disposal, you might even find situations where you ll fire off more than one shot in a turn. Thanksgiving Tournament Marathon Weekend - 11/20/2007Legends of Norrath will be thanking players over the extended Thanksgiving weekend by rewarding them with extra packs and loot! Between 5 00 PM PST on Wednesday, November 21st and until 12 00 AM PST on Monday, November 26th players can accumulate an overall tournament score based on their win/loss record in tournaments (3 points for a win and 1 point for a loss). To earn points during this marathon, simply participate in any tournament over this holiday weekend. Draft, Constructed, Highlander or No-Rare format all count toward earning points. The top two players with the highest overall tournament points (not rating) during the marathon weekend will receive a loot card of their choice! As an added thank you , we are increasing the rewards to our marathon tournament players. Each Holiday Bonus tournament during this Thanksgiving holiday marathon weekend will reward each player in the tournament with one (1) Oathbound booster pack! Head over to the Tournaments Lobby to build your tournament point score today. Have a Happy Thanksgiving from the entire Legends of Norrath Team! これもThanksgiving関連。当日少しだけ除いてみましたが、Tournamentロビーはなかなか盛況なようでした。 （時間がなかったのと、Feeの発生があるかどうか確認できなかったため、具体的な内容はチェックしていません。） Tech and Accounts/Billing Support limited during Thanksgiving Holidays (Thursday, November 22nd and Friday, November 23rd) - 11/19/2007 This Thursday and Friday, November 22nd and 23rd, Technical and Account/Billing staffing will be limited to email support. Please visit the support site athttp //www.station.sony.com/en/support/to submit your inquiries. Your opponent s best chance of dealing with the Wood Elf Ranger is to attack it on his own turn. But then, even this could prove challenging because he has the Sentinel keyword. Every unit your opponent plays while trying to amass attack will only help the Ranger s defense. And when your turn comes around, you ll be able to use that archery ability to take out that new opposition.

Like maybe some Oozes! No? Really? Man, I thought they were pretty popular. At any rate, the tradition of semi-autonomous piles of glop goes back a long way. Of course there are movies like The Blob, and a certain ground-breaking, paper-and-pencil roleplaying fantasy game featured a collection of mobile goo that did all kinds of fun things. When we design a new game, there s always a period of random, crazy card design. There were dozens of card ideas generated for Oathbound that didn t make it into that first set. A few of them had effects triggered by self-destruction, and many of those became Goblins in Forsworn. But a select few that worked in different ways were deemed similar enough to get a trait, and the Oozes were born. If you re a player who becomes sentimentally attached to his units, or somebody looking for sturdy types to roadblock, then Oozes are not for you. You won t get the full effect of these globs unless you kill them off. Of course, as in many things, timing is everything. Grimy Ooze The Ooze of the Grimy variety is handy against a rush of small units. If you can find a quick way to destroy it, you can clear away one whole side of the playmat. I like to use the Grimy Ooze with the Iksar avatar text that lets me exert to damage one of my units to draw a card. I play the Ooze, whack it with my avatar, and then launch a raid that I plan to lose. Just don t exert the Ooze for attack, and you ll be sure not to win and be able to spray grimy goodness all over the place. There are other Oozes in the set that punish your opponent for completing quests and even destroy an opponent s weapon. Another bonus from the art direction standpoint is that the artists had a fun time with the Ooze illustrations, providing us with some new and different looks for units in Forsworn.

See you there! 12/1 7 00～12/3 16 59（日本時間）の間、以上のPromo Card2枚がDropします。 Forsworn前に来て、ちょっと強力なUnitが出てきました。 Maiden4姉妹の最後の一人と、Forswornに先駆けて登場するDark ElfのUnit、というのも渋い選択です。 LaricelはLegend扱いですが、Forswornで追加されるGormung the Cruel同様、LoNのシナリオアバターとしての登場しか確認できませんでした。 ※12/3追記…（昨晩時点で）Posted Tradeを見た感じ、今回はかなりDrop渋いようです。 Forsworn Unit Week Goblins, Powerful Perishables - 11/27/2007 By Paul Merakon Dennen, Senior Game Designer The majority of the action in Forsworn s single-player campaign takes place in the Lavastorm Mountains, a region in northeast Antonica. Once the design team made that decision, we looked for new unit types from that region that we could incorporate into Legends of Norrath . Goblins immediately stuck out as a good choice, as they are the primary residents of Solusek s Eye, a lava-filled dungeon that is present in both EverQuest and EverQuest II . We liked bringing in goblins to the LoN card game because we thought they were a good thematic fit for a type of mechanic that Forsworn would introduce gaining a beneficial effect when your unit is destroyed. In Oathbound , there is only one unit, Cloudsong Maiden , with a death-triggered effect, and her effect can be as much a drawback as a benefit. In contrast, the death-triggered effects of the Goblins in Forsworn will almost always be a good thing for you. One example of is with today s preview card, the Fire Goblin Scout . Fire Goblin Scout With cost and combat attributes very similar to Oathbound s Terror Wraith, this unit is no chump in battle, especially when attacking. His death trigger can be very interesting. The obvious use would be a way to expedite your own questing, but be warned that the only time that you can finish a quest is during your own quest phase after you choose a quest. What this means is that if the Fire Goblin Scout is destroyed during your main phase, and you place the last level token needed for that quest, you will not immediately be rewarded with completion of that quest. On the other hand, if you can trigger its destruction during your own quest phase, that level token might be a difference maker. Fighters can do that with Whirlwind Attack, and all archetypes have access to Brutality which could do the trick. Another use for the Scout s triggered ability would be in combination with a quest where you d love to have a level token but you d rather not complete. For example, as a priest you could play with Severed Paw of Opolla and drop your scout there to do some damage and then give yourself some power after your opponent counterattacks. In addition to introducing Fire Goblins from Solusek s Eye, Forsworn will also feature units from the goblin city of Runnyeye, located in the Misty Thicket region of Antonica. Whether Fire or Runnyeye, one thing is almost assured goblins will shake up the Legends of Norrath game with their perishable powers.

The god of valor bestows upon them a strong sense of honor. They are morally virtuous and good-natured, and in Legends of Norrath such qualities are found in cards that have light faction. Compared to the Barbarians, another light group of units, you ll find the Frogloks to be much more civilized. There are no Frenzy or berserker damage bonuses to be found amongst our new amphibian friends. Like the Dwarves, you ll find the Guardian keyword on a couple of Frogloks. With a strict comparison of attributes, your new Froglok buddies are more like Dwarves then they are like Barbarians. Therefore, these followers of Marr will fit well into any of your decks that feature units that protect your avatar. A total of eight different Froglok units are in the Forsworn expansion set, including one Legend. Several themes are found in just those eight cards, but the major new one is showcased on our preview card today, the Froglok Commander. Froglok Commander Let s examine that game text more closely. The white circle denotes that you won t be able to use the Commander s game text at all unless your avatar has become light. Once you ve done so, he provides a terrific bonus of +1 defense to all Frogloks. When we say all, we mean all. The Commander gives that bonus to himself. He gives that bonus to all your Frogloks. He even gives that bonus to every Froglok unit that belongs to your opponents! What a generous guy! Makes you wonder if there are bonuses like this on some of the other Frogloks in Forsworn. What could they possibly be? Could they provide bonus attack? Or bonus health? Bonus damage? What are the possibilities with lots of Frogloks in play at the same time? Or even with two Froglok decks facing each other? Good thing we have a computer on hand to keep track! Another theme introduced in Forsworn is carried out on a few of these Froglok units. Remember last week when Evan told you about the new keyword Reinforce? He hinted that some light units also have this kind of mobility – those units are Frogloks. Not only are they tough opponents for raiding decks or questing decks with boosting game text and solid defense attributes, they can use Reinforce to go where they re needed most.

(As mentioned on Monday, we ll be away Thursday and Friday for the American Thanksgiving holiday.) I have one last keyword from Forsworn to show you, and one more chance to talk about how keywords can be good for the game. Reinforce to be Reckoned With Before you take a look at today s preview card, you ll want to learn about the new Reinforce keyword Whenever combat is about to begin involving a friendly unit at a different quest, if your unit with Reinforce is ready, you may move it to that quest. In short, a unit with Reinforce is, in many ways, a two-for-one. Defensively, you can t respond to a raid against your avatar using Reinforce, but you can make three units act like four units -- that s one regular unit at each quest, and a Reinforce unit to shift between the two as necessary. Offensively, you don t have to worry about playing a Reinforce unit at the wrong quest. If you manage to punch through your opponent s units for a chance to raid against his avatar, it won t matter which quest that happens at -- the Reinforce unit can move to be there. Here s one such unit Dark Elf Noble Not only can the Dark Elf Noble move between quests as you see fit, he deals 1 damage to an opposing unit in each battle he comes running to from next door. He s like a reusable Barbarian Butcher! Exploring New Frontiers In discussing keywords so far, we ve talked about how they enable ideas that might be easier done than said, and how they enable cards that are as simple to understand as no game text cards, while still bringing the strategic depth of game text. The Dark Elf Noble represents a both a fusion and an evolution of those two ideas. If you ignored the keyword on the Dark Elf Noble and just read the remaining game text, the card wouldn t really work. You could punish the occasional opponent for using Decoy or Intimidate against you. You could pull off the odd combo with Depart or other such cards. But on the whole, there isn t a lot of unit movement in Legends of Norrath. (Well, not yet, anyway.) Which means that without the idea of Reinforce, the game text of the Dark Elf Noble is essentially not doable. With Reinforce, however, there are potential new cards to be created -- not just because the keyword itself makes a big idea simple, and not just because new almost blank cards can be created that have the keyword, but because the keyword can be connected to other game text we couldn t otherwise design. Sure, we could have written out how Reinforce works, and then written out the rest of Dark Elf Noble s text too -- but not only would that have been a tight fit for words on the card, the raw number of those words would have made the whole idea look a lot more complicated than it really is. And would we want to put a dozen cards like that into the set? Not really. There are a few units in Forsworn with just the Reinforce keyword and nothing else. But there are also plenty that, like Dark Elf Noble, have something more to go with it -- all units that are really only possible because we had the keyword. You ll find these units split across Shadow and Light, with the Shadow units being mostly Dark Elves and the Light units mostly being.... a topic for another day. Discuss this article in theforums. Reinforce それを持つユニットが置かれたクエストではない、もう一方のクエストで戦闘が開始されたとき、 そのユニットがReady状態ならば、それをそのクエストに移動させてもよい。 攻めにも守りにも心強い能力です。ユニットの性能によって使いどころも・・・ Forsworn Keyword Week Sentinel - 11/20/2007 by Evan Heimlich Lorentz, Game Designer at SOE Denver In his article yesterday, designer Paul Dennen mentioned that one great reason to employ keywords in Legends of Norrath is that it allows more involved concepts like Overwhelm to be conveyed simply. He also promised more insights into the use of keywords as we continue to unveil more Forsworn cards this week... and that falls to me. The Best of Both Worlds Regardless of whether the idea behind a keyword is more sophisticated like Overwhelm (having the most units at the place and time you apply an ability), or simpler like Frenzy (+1 attack until the end of the turn each time you play a card), the fact that the idea is summed up in a single word is another benefit of using keywords. In other words, they expand the possibilities of what can be considered a basic card. If you look back at Oathbound, you ll find a few units without any game text, like the Barbarian Veteran and Dwarven Soldier. And just because they have no game text doesn t mean these cards are unpopular -- Fallen Orc and Everfrost Grizzly fall into this category as well. It s important to have some cards like these in the game. Not every card has to assault the brain with five lines of complicated game text for a match to be interesting, and every once in a while, the mind could use a short rest. But at the same time, you can t really have a lot of cards like these. For one, there s an actual limit on how many such cards we could create. Admittedly, it s not so low a limit to cause worry, but there are only so many combinations of cost, attack, defense, damage bonus, and health. And though you could theoretically offer a light, neutral, and shadow version of each of those possibilities, you d eventually get into reruns. Secondly, while a few blank units won t make the game less interesting, too many of them probably would. A Fallen Orc is great and all, but how much more fun is it to walk the line between Shadow and Light and play one in combination with a Galebreaker Maiden? Game text is interesting. It deepens the game. It makes you think. Keywords are a way to enjoy the best of both worlds. Several units in Oathbound were only mostly blank, thanks to the presence of a single keyword -- units like Wild Barbarian, Dwarven Gladiator, and Dwarven Sentry, among others. Because players can learn quickly what Frenzy, Guardian, and Protector all mean, these cards are as quick to grok as their textless cousins. But because those keywords actually carry some game text in them, they can have the kind of greater strategic impact on the game that a non-blank unit has. Nutritious and Delicious So with that background, let s get to the new card! Tellurian Recruit You can see the one side (call it the nutritious side ) of what I ve talked about immediately. This is a very clean and simple card that doesn t hurt your brain it s a cheap pet for your Mage deck with some nice health. But when you learn what Sentinel does, you ll enjoy the other side (call it the frosted side ) of the keyworded unit. Sentinel means Whenever an opposing unit is played at the same quest, your unit with Sentinel gets +2 defense until the end of the turn. And just like that, the strategic possibilities expand. Every time your opponent plays a new unit to try and overpower the Recruit, it pulls farther away for the turn. In many situations, your opponent won t be able to raid to kill the Recruit in a single turn; he ll have to do his damage with his own avatar during the quest phase, or play units now to be used next turn. This and other units with Sentinel actually prefer an opponent using lots of cheap units rather than a few expensive ones. They don t get so demoralized when the Howling Frost Giant shows up. And they just point and laugh at Restless Bones. They are in some ways the defensive mirror of Frenzy. With several new Sentinel units to choose from, Forsworn will offer many new possibilities to a player looking for a more defense-oriented deck strategy. Soon, you ll become as familiar with Sentinel as you are with the game s existing keywords, and you ll be enjoying the nutritious side and the frosted side together. Breakfast.... er, I mean... card game nirvana! Discuss this article in theforums. Sentinel 同じクエストに相手Unitがプレイされた場合、ターン終了時までDefenseに+2の修正を受ける。 出されると、どうしても後手に回らざるを得なくなるイヤな能力です。 Forsworn Keyword Week Overwhelm - 11/19/2007By Paul Dennen, Senior Game Designer at SOE Denver Keyword Week Welcome to keyword week. This week, we re going to talk about the new keywords that are introduced by the Forsworn expansion. The shortened week of articles (we ll be taking off Thursday and Friday for the American Thanksgiving holiday) works quite well for keyword week because there are only three new keywords in Forsworn. In addition to revealing the new keywords and some cards associated with them, we re also going to talk about some different reasons why keywords are a good thing for Legends of Norrath. Bundle Up The first reason that keywords are a good thing is that they allow us to write cards that we otherwise wouldn t. I presume you ve heard the phrase easier said than done. Well, the way that I look at some keywords is easier done than said. The idea behind the keyword is something that isn t that hard to understand, nor to remember, but to write it all out on a card would take a lot of words. It gets even worse if the concept is something that you want to use on multiple cards. Today s keyword, Overwhelm, is a good example of easier done than said . The definition of Overwhelm looks like this Whenever you apply an ability with Overwhelm at a quest where friendly units outnumber opposing units, place an additional level token at that quest. That s a lot of words. Certainly too many to be pasting onto a large batch of cards. But it s a concept that you can wrap your head around pretty easily, and it s not that hard to remember. Thus, the power of the keyword s association of the concept with a single word. The word itself is a key that unlocks a greater meaning. Keyword. Makes sense. Early Power Time for today s first spoiler card Overpower Overpower is a simple little card with small numbers but potentially huge ramifications for the game. Consider that in Oathbound, no ability card that costs less than 2 power has more than 1 level. Overpower, because of the Overwhelm keyword, has the potential to effectively be a level 2 ability. When I play with Oathbound, on turn one what I typically look in my hand is a level 2 ability that I can play, so that I can complete a level-2 quest on my second turn for a reward. Sometimes it s an ability that costs 2 power. In that case, I look to see if I have a cheap unit to accompany it. For example, Jolting Blades and Dwarven Sentry makes for a solid turn one opening. Now with Forsworn, if I am playing with Overpower, I can potentially play a 2-cost unit on turn one and still threaten to finish a quest on my second turn. I can also open with Overpower and two 1-cost units which gives an even greater chance to trigger the Overwhelm bonus token. Outta My Way You ll find that the abilities in Forsworn that have the Overwhelm keyword are generally associated with battle. Here s one of two Mage abilities with the Overwhelm keyword Phantasmal Charge Based on EverQuest II s illusionist spell, this ability gives the Mage player a boost in each of her quest phase combats. If you can turn that attack bonus into a victory and knock down your opponent s units so that you have the majority, your added bonus is the opportunity to place three level tokens there instead of two. This is the kind of ability that you might want to drag around for a while to take advantage of its powerful ongoing effect, so sometimes your decision whether to apply it for a bonus may be difficult. Mix It Up One appealing aspect of Overwhelm is that it can help achieve a questing win, but only by having a deck that utilizes a mixture of abilities and units. If you re using Overwhelm and find yourself up against a heavily ability-based questing deck, for instance one that only uses the occasional unit as a minor roadblock, you will find it easy to apply bonus level tokens. The combination of combat pressure from your units and additional level tokens from your abilities can give you a leg up on the competition. Discuss this article in theforums.

So, today s preview is a generic card that can be used by an avatar of any archetype. One card for all archetypes. And All for One Today we look at Spiked War Club, one of the generic weapons introduced by the Forsworn expansion. Representing a weapon that just about anyone on Norrath can use, this weapon is not only flexible in terms of who can use it, but it s flexible from turn to turn within a game. Spiked War Club Spiked War Club is an interesting Legends of Norrath card because it is a weapon that has the ability to provide defense. All combat attributes for one item. When you re putting together a deck, do you ever find it hard to decide how many defensive cards to include? Frankly, with all the fast attack decks out there, you certainly should be considering some defenses. Well, Spiked War Club is a nice weapon to go to when you think you could use more defense, but you just can t figure out what cards to cut from your deck to make room for those defenses. Sure, it may not have the damage-dealing power of the Black Bone Dirk, but the potential to summon extra total defense in a time of need is nothing to scoff at.

While the focus in Oathbound was on Rogues, Assassins, Brigands, and Swashbucklers, the first expansion set provides a lot more cards for Rangers. Our Chief Weapon is Surprise The popular Hidden keyword is alive and well in Forsworn. Adding to the ten Hidden cards in Oathbound are an even dozen new ones. Those sneaky Scouts get the lion s share with four new Hidden cards. Wyrmsteel Shortblade You ll notice that Wyrmsteel Shortblade has a when you play this action in its game text that exerts an opponent. That s a theme that s featured on cards like Thorny Trap and Dagger of the White Rose, and you ll see more of that in Forsworn. This new Scout weapon is like a 3-attack version of the Oathbound favorite Steel Dagger. Also note that the shortblade is a Secondary weapon, allowing your Scout to dual wield with another weapon in the Primary slot. You ll find one other Secondary weapon to add to your Scout s arsenal in Forsworn. I Shot an Arrow Into the Air You ll find five Scout cards that have the Archery trait in Forsworn, as a part of the ongoing Ranger theme. Three of them are abilities that have a new arrow mechanic. Like shooting an arrow, each of these abilities gives you the option of destroying it when you play it to get a special effect. Debilitating Arrow Debilitating Arrow, shown above, is definitely the nastiest of these new abilities. The first 6-cost Scout ability, it has 3 levels for questing if you choose not to use its game text. Blasting your opponent s abilities off the playmat can buy you a turn or two against an aggressive questing deck or blow away a key stance like Lethal Resolve, Provocation, or Focus Rage. Something Old, Something New Lots of other cards in this first expansion set expand the Scout themes begun in Oathbound. These include attacking avatars, manipulating level tokens, and adding surprise damage during combat. You ll also find a couple of new linking abilities that mark units in a most deadly fashion, and an ability that prevents damage outside of combat. Forsworn provides more combo possibilities involving exerted opponents, a strategy that began in Oathbound. More in Store This concludes our sneak peeks at each archetype s cards from Forsworn. Of course, we ve only scratched the surface, and you ll find lots more great cards and new combos for all four archetypes. We haven t even started previewing the exciting new quests or generic cards (including dozens of new units) in this first expansion set. Combine that with ten new single-player scenarios, team play, and multiplayer raid games, and you ll find that Legends of Norrath is a whole new game! Discuss this article in theforums. Dual Wield(二刀流）のためのSecondary武器、When You Play効果のついたカードの増加 奇襲に長けたScoutっぽい強化です。 Forsworn Architype Week Priest (Focus on Nature) - 11/14/2007 By Paul Dennen, Senior Game Designer at SOE Denver Archetype Week We continue our look at what kinds of things Forsworn provides for the four archetypes in the game. Second Nature In Oathbound, priest cards were primarily drawn from the spells used by clerics, templars, inquisitors, mystics, and defilers. There were only a couple cards that were related to the nature-based priests of Norrath. Early in Oathbound s development, we did try to incorporate many nature-flavored spells, but we felt that we didn t have enough card slots to give everyone their thematic due. Forsworn will now rectify the situation and bring balance to the priest s card pool with the introduction of cards based on EverQuest s druid and shaman classes and EverQuest II s warden and fury classes. We decided that rather than simply writing new types of game text for these cards, we would also add a special trait on the cards. Thus, you will find that each card based on these classes is tagged with a nature trait. This isn t something that you ll typically have to be concerned with, but it is a useful tool for writing cards that push certain deck archetypes. For example, there is at least one card in Forsworn that triggers an effect when you play another card with the nature trait. Ready Yourself One card with the nature trait is an extension of a cycle of tactics that began in Oathbound. The first two cards in this cycle were Mage s Intellectual Superiority and Scout s Vicious Flurry. These tactics are played when your avatar is in combat, exerted. Suddenly, you can surprise your opponent by not only readying your avatar but getting an additional bonus. Here s the priest card in that cycle, inspired by the EverQuest spell of the same name that can give a druid or shaman an awesome burst of speed Spirit of Cheetah The additional bonus in this case is rune-based protection. Now, I know what some of you are thinking if I m playin this card to ready my avatar, why do I need the rune? Should I follow up by exerting my avatar to win the combat? Sometimes, that would be correct - you only want the additional exertion or the rune. But consider that you could play this on defense during an opponent s heavy attack, lose the combat and use the rune for that combat. But now, on your following turn, your avatar will be ready going into quest phase, which can be quite useful. Love Connection In yesterday s article, Chuck explained that one of the new concepts in Forsworn lets you link your abilities to a target. The example he chose was Dark Coil -- a very mean spell by the way! Today s second spoiler card, based on an EverQuest II warden skill, shows that not all links have to be negative Nature s Respite Have a favorite unit that you hate to see go to the discard pile? Embrace the power of nature and protect it with Nature s Respite. Of course, the irony of using this spell is that the protected unit will often find itself in harm s way. It ll almost certainly be the first unit to be destroyed if you are allocating damage! You may also find that Sacrifice works well in conjunction with Nature s Respite, preventing the usual card depletion that aggressive shadow decks normally face. Parsley, Beasts, Ensnaring and Thyme There are plenty more nature-based cards to look forward to in the Forsworn expansion. Some of them perform tricks that EQ and EQII players might expect buff your animals, rooting your enemies in place. Others provide surprising new twists on Legends of Norrath gameplay. Playing with yellow cards has never been so exciting -- now yellow goes green! Discuss this article in theforums. Nature(Druid？)方向に拡張されたPriest。 支援職としてRaidで活躍できるかも？ Forsworn Architype Week Mage (Focus on Necromancers) - 11/13/2007 By Chuck Shocho Kallenbach, Game Designer at SOE Denver Archetype Week It s time for round two of four, and this time we re taking a look at the new Mage cards for the Forsworn expansion. Necromancy for Fun and Profit Mages are often more concerned with extracting power from the elements than the petty squabbles between Light and Shadow. The Oathbound set provided only two cards for each faction in the Mage archetype. The focus in Oathbound was on Wizards, Conjurors and Illusionists, as typified by Karlemayn s starter deck with her Dwarven Soldiers and Renew Servantabilities. Forsworn provides three more Light cards for our frosty Gnome hero, but the big news is on the Shadow side. The focus in Forsworn is on the Necromancer class, with cards that drain life, raise the dead, and deal petrifying debuffs. Connecting the DoTs MMOs have a concept often nicknamed DoT, or Damage over Time. I place a debuff on you, and as time ticks by, that enchantment deals damage with each tick. (Sometimes the buff is healing and the nickname changes to HoT for Heal over Time. You ll find those effects in Forsworn as well.) Dark Coil Legends of Norrath now has a way to represent these kinds of effects, and it uses a new concept called linking. (Actually, the Mage card Fascinate was doing this kind of thing before it was cool.) For example, the Dark Coil ability shown above lets you select a victim when you play it. Then, each time that unit s owner begins a turn, Dark Coil deals 1 damage to it. An icon appears on the affected unit to show it s been targeted. Of course this effect lasts only as long as both the ability and the unit are in play. That means your selection should take into account how much health that unit has, and how long you plan for your ability to be around. Shifting Sight is a valuable asset, keeping all your linked abilities through your quest phase and making sure they continue to pump out the damage. Part of the fun in designing a turn-based card game that s based on a real-time roleplaying game is finding ways to represent the effects of spells and items from one type of game in the other.. We don t have a ticking clock for effects in Legends of Norrath, so we had to find another way to represent effects over time. I m excited about the new linked effects in Forsworn, and you ll find them in abilities for three of the four archetypes. Pets R Us Do Mages get new Pets in Forsworn? Of course they do! There are three new ones, and each is both deliciously Shadow and Undead. These traits provide interesting combo possibilities with cards like Fallen Chieftain, Necromantic Orb, Gharin s Note, Sacrifice, and all those lovely Maidens. Restless Bones Our featured Pet here is Restless Bones, a 2-cost Pet with a welcome attack attribute of 2 (it s good to be bad). Its game text makes it the gift that keeps on giving, since each time you play a Restless Bones all the other copies in your discard pile join the fray. Don t worry about playing that Sacrifice on your Restless Bones... he ll be back in action soon enough! They don t call them restless for nothing. Shadow Is as Shadow Does You ll find equally sinister mechanics and effects for all the new Shadow Mage cards in Forsworn. Interested in gaining power or healing your avatar? How about scaring away a unit or paralyzing your opponent? Those are all possibilities with the new necro cards... even though sometimes there s a nasty cost involved. But you knew that dealing with the Dark Arts had a price, didn t you? Discuss this article in theforums.

This week, the design team will tackle one archetype per day, presenting something new and interesting in the Forsworn expansion that was designed specifically for that archetype. Holier Than Thine First Card Set I think that Mithaniel Marr, Norrath s God of Valor and ultimate paladin, would be happy with the Forsworn expansion. Paladins are holy knights and as you ve already seen in the Oathbound set, cards that represent holiness tend to be light-aligned, e.g. Holy Aura. Holy Aura was a light-aligned fighter card, so clearly paladins have been represented already. In fact, Oathbound gave us the powerful Fiery Avenger sword, a card that spawned at least a few forum threads during beta. But Oathbound only laid a groundwork for paladins; Forsworn strengthens the foundation for playing a paladin avatar considerably. There are plenty of goodies for the goodies! I will also admit that my favorite deck to play so far during Forsworn playtesting has been my pally deck. Go Quest Young Man Some players have discovered that fighters are pretty good at questing for a victory. Because they ve got some great defensive abilities and tactics, they re well-suited to being able to survive an aggressive opponent. They also have some self-healing cards so that they can last long enough to cross the questing finish line. Forsworn continues this trend, and offers powerful new twists for paladin decks. Here s a card that mixes a little bit of defense with a little bit of healing Crown of the Holy Defender Crown of the Holy Defender is very similar to Turtleshell Helm, but with three important differences. First, the Crown costs 1 less power to play. Considering that this is the kind of card that you want to play as early as possible, that can be an important advantage. But now comes the drawback if your opponent completes a quest, say goodbye to your lovely Crown. Still, if you find yourself up against an opponent who doesn t care much about completing quests, this isn t much of a drawback at all. You can also design a deck that tries to stop your opponent from completing quests, and thus maximize the duration that you ll be able to keep the Crown in play. The third difference is simply that the Crown is a light card and will thus swing your faction meter toward light faster than playing a neutral card like Turtleshell Helm. Giddyup One of the defining things about being a paladin on Norrath is your ability to summon a holy warhorse for yourself. Thus, I really put a lot of effort into coming up with a cool card representation of a holy steed for Legends of Norrath. For most cards, the design team likes to keep things relatively simple, focusing on one aspect of gameplay per card. But I was torn on the simplicity vs. complexity issue for Holy Steed, because there s just so many cool things about having a warhorse. After running a couple concepts by the other designers and of course our in-house paladin expert Kyle Paladon Heuer, here s the result Holy Steed Defensive? Sure, even if only a token 1 defense, it s there representing the fact that sitting atop a horse makes the paladin a little harder to hit. Fast? Yep, but only if you re utilizing light-aligned abilities. And Forsworn gives you some low-cost level 1 light-aligned abilities, letting you gallop through quests like butter. Strong? Definitely. During each of your main phases, you can go romping through the countryside to attack a group of opposing units at a quest. You can use this to follow up an attack during your quest, perhaps punching a hole so that your army can get through to your opponent s avatar. Or you might have had an ability disabled by a wily opponent, an ability you were counting on to propel you toward a quest where you need some crowd control. With a Holy Steed on your side, you can t be stopped in your tracks quite so easily! I m pretty happy with where Holy Steed ended up, as it uses some relatively-simple pieces of game text to capture the feeling of riding a powerful warhorse. It also opens up the possibility of a strong new questing deck. I certainly hope you have fun playing with it once Forsworn releases. And may the glory of Mithaniel Marr be with you!

ForswornでのFighterについて・・・Paladin的な立ち回りがどういう方向性に向かうのか？ 紹介された2枚からすると、どちらもQuestデッキ向けですが・・・ Boost Your Collection and Have Some Fun! - 11/12/2007By Chuck Shocho Kallenbach It s time for Booster Draft! What s more fun than a barrel of gibbering gnolls? A new tournament format for Legends of Norrath! If you haven t experienced a draft tournament before, it s a different experience in lots of fun ways. Generally speaking, we call the two types of tournament formats Constructed (build a deck before the tournament from the cards in your collection) and Limited (receive a pool of cards to build a deck just for that tournament). Booster draft is the first of our Limited tournament formats. It s a great equalizer, since each player draws from a smaller pool of cards than her entire collection. No matter how you do during the tournament, you ll get 60 new cards added to your collection when the booster draft is complete! How does booster draft work? Each player brings 3 Event Passes and 4 Oathbound booster packs (unopened). Players are given a draft order as if they were sitting around a table, so conceptually there s a player to your left and a player to your right. When the draft begins, one of your packs is opened and you ll see all fifteen cards displayed. You have nearly 40 seconds to pick one of those cards. Don t worry, you can change your mind if you want, but just make sure you have one picked before the time runs out. When all the players in the draft have picked a card, each player passes his or her pack to the left. (Of course, all the passing and pack opening is handled by your computer client. No wrestling with uncooperative foil packs!) Then you ll see a pack of 14 cards that the player to your right has already chosen one card from. Pick one from that pack, and then you ll pass that one and see another pack with fewer cards. This procedure continues until all the cards in each pack are drafted (that s 15 picks). (The time to pick your cards decreases as you have fewer to choose from, nearly 40 seconds for the first card of the pack to a little under 3 seconds for the last card in a pack). Once the first pack has been drafted, you ll open your second pack, and that pack passes to the right. The direction of passing the packs alternates with each pack, so you get a chance to get some idea what both players next to you are choosing. That s part of the strategy of booster draft! How do I build my deck? When you ve drafted all four packs, you ll have 60 cards total to build your 40-card draft deck from. You ll enter a special Limited Deck Builder that shows only the cards you ve drafted and ten extra cards that are used only in draft tournaments. Each player has 10 minutes to put together a complete draft deck. Make sure you save your deck when you re done by clicking the Ready button. North Karana There are four default Karana quests provided, one for each level of 2, 4, 5, and 6. You can use these quests to build your deck if you didn t draft any quests while opening packs. Watch out though, because each one deals 1 damage to your avatar when you play it. It s a good idea to pick up quests during the draft so you won t get killed off by one of your own Karana quests! MageScout You can t create your own avatar to use in a draft deck, and you can t draft one because there are no avatar cards in booster packs. We provide six special avatars for draft that allow you to play two archetypes in the same deck. There is one for each combination of two archetypes, like the Mage-Scout card shown above. You can build your deck with generic cards and add in any cards from the two archetypes you ve selected. That means you can create terrific new combos in draft that aren t even possible in constructed play! If you have trouble making your 40-card deck even using cards from two archetypes and generic cards, then you can add cards from other archetypes. But if you must do this, you should try to avoid playing them because your avatar will take 2 damage for each one you play! Let the tournament begin! Once all players have built and saved their decks, the tournament begins. At this point it s just like a regular Swiss tournament, with random pairings for the first round and then matching up by tournament points after that. In between rounds, you can return to the Limited Deck Builder and swap out cards to improve your deck if you like. You ll be limited to only the cards you ve drafted and the twelve special draft cards, of course. How do I know what to draft? Booster draft tournaments require a different mind set than you use when building a constructed deck. You have to be flexible and creative, while still having a plan to build your deck. If you go into the tournament planning to play your two favorite archetypes, you may be disappointed when there are no good cards for them in the packs you draft from. Knowing the card set well is an asset in booster draft. Sure, you can have fun and get lots of new cards for your collection by drafting only loot cards, foils and rares, but it will be hard to build a deck from those cards. Rare cards are generally narrow in utility, meaning they don t fit into a lot of different decks. Remember, you ll see many more commons and uncommons than rares in a booster draft. You should also pay attention to what other players are drafting. How can you tell? If the player to your right keeps passing packs that have few Fighter cards, then that might be one of the archetypes she s drafting. You can learn a lot about the two players next to you by paying attention to what cards seem to be missing when they pass you a pack. Sometimes it seems like nobody is drafting a particular archetype. Does that mean you should change your plans in mid-draft and jump on that bandwagon? These are the kind of exciting, on-the-fly decisions encountered only in a booster draft format. What kinds of deck strategies are successful? Since a booster draft deck is not as focused as a constructed deck, different kinds of strategies and combos are effective. You ll find that healing and questing work better in a booster draft than they do in the current constructed metagame. Also, since decks are less focused, games can last more turns than a constructed deck game. You ll find that sometimes with a 40-card deck you ll actually run out of cards to draw and lose in a booster draft game. So you might consider adding a few extra cards, especially if you ll be using effects that draw extra cards during the game. When does booster draft begin? Friday afternoon, November 16th at 2 00 pm (PST) is when the automated queue events will become available. As soon as 8 players join the queue, a draft will begin. Start working on your Limited event rating with booster draft tournaments this weekend!

There s a reason why we re not often seen playing on the main Legends of Norrath server -- it s because we ve been busy on the development servers testing new cards and new game concepts! The development server has been a rocking place recently and it will continue to be over the next month as we continue to playtest the Forsworn cards. Let me say this up front we are going to release spoilers from Forsworn before it releases, but we re still playtesting these cards; they may be changed by the time the set officially releases. Before I get to today s spoilers, let me give you a brief overview of what you can expect from the expansion. First of all, over 250 new cards, which is a substantial percentage increase to the Legends of Norrath card pool. This will include lots of new cards for each of the four archetypes. We re not adding any archetypes nor are we making the game fundamentally more complex. Rather, we re making each archetype s card pool a bit deeper, with more strategic options. For example, the mage archetype is getting lots of shadow cards, which represent the necromancer classes from EverQuest and EverQuest II. Another thing we re adding is the ability to play multiplayer, meaning more than two players. There s two-versus-two. Find a partner and develop a team-based strategy. And beyond that, we re introducing special multiplayer raids, where a group of players groups together to tackle a powerful AI opponent in a card-slinging battle of epic proportions. Beware, these raid bosses are powerful and will require teamwork and excellent cardplay to defeat. There are different raid scenarios, from a small 2vs1 raid to an epic 4vs1 raid where you and your companions journey to Old Sebilis to defeat Trakanon the ancient dragon. The Old Sebilis raid is very special in that there are premiere raid cards with art specifically created for it. Here s a little teaser of one of the Old Sebilis quest cards (without attributes and game text) Trakanon s Cavern Trakanon is one scary-looking beast. And just wait until you see his ability cards! In addition to the action-packed raid scenarios, there s also a new single-player campaign that continues the story of the Oathbound heroes sworn to fight for the Tribunal. You ll have to defeat powerful new foes and overcome new puzzle-like challenges to reach the end of the story. There s a lot of stuff to be excited about beyond that, including new unit races, new keywords, etc. but rather than overload you with all the details now, we re going to leave the details of all those things for the daily articles that will appear on this website over the next month. For today, I want to make one thing clear. You can expect the metagame to shift a bit. Expect some strategies that were a bit weak in Oathbound to become contenders. That doesn t mean that everything will turn upside down. Far from it -- there will be plenty of cards that can be used to supplement already-solid strategies. As an example, take today s first spoiler card the Forsworn Crusader. He really packs a punch -- he ll be the first unit with a +2 damage bonus for less than 3 power. Pretty strong for fast unit strategies, huh? Check it out Forsworn Crusader You can see that his powerful punch comes with a drawback. Each time Forsworn Crusader is exerted, you deal 1 damage to your avatar. Still, if you can exert him for damage bonus against an opposing avatar, that s clearly a good trade-off; your opponent takes 3 damage and you take 1 damage. However, when Forsworn Crusaders are on the playmat, they ll turn your opponent s Outwit tactics into Exert an opposing unit and deal 1 damage to its owner. Those will sting. In addition to supplying new toys for already-strong deck types, the Forsworn expansion will also introduce new cards to bolster strategies that have been subpar with the limited options in the Oathbound set. For example, defensive strategies have been harder to execute than offensive strategies. Here s a Forsworn card that you might consider if you are concerned about your defenses Outmaneuver Outmaneuver is a simple card, but it s effective against players who are trying to bash your avatar faster than you can say have we reached turn 5 yet? Because it is hidden, and costs less than 4 power, you can pull this out against an opponent who tries to snack on your avatar before you even have a turn. But even if you don t use its hidden capability, it s still a nice defensive ability to play on your own turn for 3 mana. Compare it to Back Away, which has the same defense and levels, but instead of discarding a card at random, you pay 1 more power. Obviously, these are just two of the new cards from the upcoming expansion, and we didn t touch on any new mechanics. We ll leave that for the upcoming articles. We hope that you re as excited about the new set as we were when designing and playtesting it.

Making Thumbnails with RMagick 開始日 2007年02月01日 最終更新日 2009年06月03日 はじめに Polaroid Effectが好評なので、調子に乗って別のページも翻訳し始めました。 原著 「Making Thumbnails with RMagick」 http //rmagick.rubyforge.org/resizing-methods.html 注意 もともと個人利用を目的として日本語化したために、けっこう意訳している部分があります。「意味分からないよ」とか「おかしいんじゃない？」とかいうのがあれば、オリジナルを参照するか、コメントで質問してください（がんばって調べます）。 更新履歴 2007/2/1 作成開始 訳文 もしRMagickを使ったJPEG画像のサムネイル作成に対して、その遅さ(*1)が気になるのであれば、resizeメソッドではなくthumbnailメソッドの使用を検討した方がいい。 thumbnailメソッドはデフォルト引数のままであればresizeメソッドよりも速く、同じくらい魅力的な品質で結果を生成してくれるからだ。スピードの違いはリサイズ後のイメージが小さい( 1/10)ほど顕著に現れる。RMagickをImageMagick 6.2.6(*2)と一緒に使っているならば、これは良い選択肢だと思わないか？ 以下の内容を読んで、私がなぜこのような結論に至ったかを見てほしい。 RMagickでサムネイルを作るには RMagickは、ImageMagickまたはGraphicsMagickライブラリのRubyバインディングだ。ImageMagick/GraphicsMagick双方のライブラリは画像リサイズ用の同じAPI一式を提供していて、RMagickではMagick Imageクラスのresize、sample、scale、そしてthumbnailメソッドでこれらAPIをラップしている。 Christy（ImageMagickのチーフアーキテクトだ）はこれら4つのメソッドの違いを次のように説明している： 各メソッドの特徴(*3) sample 範囲内の中央ピクセルの情報だけを使ってリサイズする（つまり、画像中に無い色は生成されない）。resizeをPointFilterで使用したときと同じ。 scale sampleに似ているが、浮動小数点によるサンプリングを実施し、周囲のピクセル情報も代表色に取り入れている。 thumbnail 範囲内のピクセルを5点サンプリングし、その情報を元に代表色を決定・リサイズする。resizeメソッドで画像を1/5のサイズに縮小するときと同じ。プロファイルやコメント情報はstripされる。 resize まぁ、あれだ。何でもありのメソッドだ。使用するフィルタを選んだり、ぼかしたりシャープにしたりもできる。フィルタは縮小時にはLanczosFilter、拡大時はMitchellFilterをデフォルトで使用する。代表色を作るとき、実は隣接ピクセルのアルファチャネル情報も考慮している。透明度の低いピクセルは高いピクセルよりも重みを多く持つ。 各手法のベンチマーク結果 私はRubyのベンチマーク用モジュールを使って、上で挙げた各メソッドのデータ生成までに要する時間を計測した。 テスト仕様は以下のとおり： sample,scale,thumbnail,resizeの4種類を使用resizeは15種類のフィルタそれぞれで計測 2272x1704の写真（JPEG形式）を使用リサイズ後のサイズを200x150,300x225,400x300の3種類で計測 その結果はこの図のとおり。上がImageMagickを使用した結果で、下はGraphicsMagickの結果だ。両方のグラフは画像を200x150に縮小したときの負荷の大きさでソートしてある。 どのメソッドがベターなのか さて、ベンチマーク結果を眺めてみよう。 まず、ImageMagickと、ImageMagickからブランチしたGraphicMagickとの間では明らかに値が異なっていることが分かる。GraphicMagickがどの方法でも一定のパフォーマンスを維持している一方で、ImageMagickはアルゴリズム（フィルタ）間のばらつきが大きい。どうもImageMagickでは、一部のアルゴリズムのパフォーマンスを得るために他のパフォーマンスを犠牲にしているようだ。 また、thumbnail以外のメソッドは作成する画像のサイズが大きくなるにしたがってCPU時間も微増していることも見てとれる。thumbnailメソッドだけはサイズが大きくなると途端に重くなっている。 ちょっと待ってくれ、このthumbnailの結果に注目してくれないか。ImageMagick/GraphicsMagickに関係なく、生成後の画像サイズが小さいほど劇的に速くなっていることが分かるかい？これは上で説明した理屈と一致しているわけなんだけど、400x300という一番大きなサイズ（この大きさをもはや「サムネイル」と呼ぶかどうかは疑問だが(*4)）のときでさえ、resizeをデフォルトのLanczosFilterで使用したときよりも速く出来ている。 「サムネイルの見栄えなんてどうだっていいよ、でも作成に時間がかかるなんてアリエナイ」なんて思っているなら、そりゃあsampleをずっと使っていればいい。どんな場合でも一瞬でサムネイルを作ってくれるからね。でも本当はノイジーでモザイクがかったような画像は嫌いなんじゃないか？ 見栄えもソコソコ、スピードもソレナリな方法で、どれにすればいいか迷っているんだったらこちらの画像一覧を見てほしい。少しは参考になるだろう。 注意： 紹介している画像はImageMagick6.2.6上で作成した。別バージョンやGraphicMagickを使っている人とは結果が違うかもしれないので、気をつけてほしい。 だけど簡単さと（ライブラリ間の）バラツキの無さを考えると、thumbnailは外せない。フィルターの選別に迷うこともないし、ImageMagickとGraphicsMagickとで同じようなパフォーマンスを持っているし、速いし、なかなかのサムネイルを作り出してくれる。 scaleメソッドはthumbnailと同じようなパフォーマンスを得られるし、画像サイズが大きいときはthumbnailよりも速い。でも出来上がる画像は、（私の見る限りでは）ちょっとシャープさに欠けるかな。 ちなみにImageMagick 6.2.6上では、resize+PointFilterはthumbnailによく似た画像を作り出し、thumbnailよりも速い。まぁ、人によってはこれでもいいかもしれない。 そうだ、thumbnail以外の方法を使った場合、出来上がったサムネイルからプロファイルやコメント情報をstripすることを忘れないでくれ。 巨大なJPEGファイルをサムネイル化するときのTips サムネイル化したい画像が巨大ファイルサイズのJPEGデータだった場合、全データの読み込み＆画像処理よりもっと良い方法がある。 それはImage Infoの属性self.sizeを指定してファイルを読むことだ。求めているサムネイルサイズのちょうど2倍のサイズを指定してから読み込むと、ImageMagickのJPEGライブラリはファイルのデータ全部を読み込まず、必要な量だけを読み込んでくれるというわけだ。その後、適度に小さくなって読み込まれた画像を使ってサムネイル化する。 大きなファイルの読み込みはメモリを圧迫して無駄も多いので、ぜひ活用してほしい。 詳細な説明は、AnthonyのExcelletなサイトにある「Reading JPEG Image」の項に載っているから、こちらも参照してくれ。 （このTipを提供してくれたAnthony Thyssonに感謝！） テスト構成 このベンチマークテストは以下の環境で実施した。 Intel Pentium III(933MHz) 512MB RAM Mandriva2006 Ruby 1.8.4 RMagick 1.10.0 ImageMagick 6.2.6 / GraphicMagick 1.1.7 ImageMagickとGraphicMagickはどちらも-O3を付けてコンパイルした。 ちなみにグラフ作成にはOpenOffice 1.1.5を使用している。 Tim - Jan 21, 2006 参考サイト(訳者による追加) RMagickオンラインドキュメント：http //www.simplesystems.org/RMagick/doc/index.htmlthumbnailメソッド：http //www.simplesystems.org/RMagick/doc/image3.html#thumbnail sampleメソッド：http //www.simplesystems.org/RMagick/doc/image3.html#sample scaleメソッド：http //www.simplesystems.org/RMagick/doc/image3.html#scale reseizeメソッド：http //www.simplesystems.org/RMagick/doc/image3.html#resize Image Infoクラスの説明：http //www.simplesystems.org/RMagick/doc/info.html （ - ）

www.bleeter.biz 解説 GTAIVのダウンロードコンテンツ、ザ・バラッド・オブ・ゲイ・トニー（The Ballad of Gay Tony）でアクセス出来るようになったウェブサイト。いわゆるソーシャル・ネットワーキング・サイト。 モデルは明らかにツイッター（twitter）である。 このサイトではパソコンや携帯から、今行ってることなどを短い文章としてつぶやくブリート（Bleets）というものを投稿する。これもツイッターのツイートとほぼ同じである。 サイト名は "bleat" という単語から由来し、その単語の意味は日本語で『メェー』と表されるヒツジの鳴き声であるが、同時に『泣き言、愚痴を言う』と言う意味もある。ゆえにマスコットはヒツジとなっている。また携帯では最新のブリートの投稿を知らせる音がこのヒツジの鳴き声となっている。 キャッチコピーは "Life suddenly got quick.（人生いきなり短くなる）"。 ツイッターと同じく、（GTAIV内の）有名人の多くがこのサイトを利用しており、そのファンによってその有名人のブリートがよく読まれている。 ちなみにこのサイトのドメインは『.biz』であり、2001年から新規に認められたドメインだが、多くのスパムや詐欺、ポルノサイトでよく利用されているドメインでもある。

For one thing, the rain front came to a halt over Niigata Prefecture on the Sea of Japan, inundating the prefecture while Shikoku, on the opposite side of the archipelago, saw nary a drop. And Tokyo got hit by a June day with record-setting high temperatures. 今年までは異常な気象パターンが梅雨を作り出してきた、と週刊プレイボーイは報告する。 一つには、梅雨前線が日本海に面する新潟県の上で停滞し水浸しにするからである。その間日本列島の反対側に位置する四国ではほとんど一滴も降らないのにもかかわらず。 そして記録的猛暑日が6月の東京を襲った。 2 It remains to be seen if the record-breaking number of typhoons that made direct landings on the Japanese archipelago in 2004 --- 10 of them --- will be exceeded. But just about everyone agrees that the seasonal weather patterns aren't what they used to be. 日本列島に直接上陸した台風の数である十という2004年の記録が、破られるかどうかはまだわからない。 しかし、季節の気象パターンがかつてとは違うということには、ほぼ全員が同意する。 3 "This is just the beginning of real changes in weather patterns on a worldwide scale due to global warming," says Koji Murayama, a meteorologist who works for the Japan Meteorological Business Support Center. "Once it begins, the common wisdom in our field is that the frequency of irregular phenomena will increase and their scale will become increasingly greater." 「これは地球温暖化による世界規模での気象パターンの本当の変革のほんの始まりに過ぎません」と、財団法人日本気象業務支援センターで働く気象学者・村山貢司は言う。 「始まったら、我々の専門分野におけるこれまでの常識の蓄積によれば、異常現象の頻度は増大し、その規模はより大規模に増大することになります」 4 Murayama is especially concerned that a Class-5 typhoon will hit Japan this summer. 村山はとりわけ、クラス5の台風が今年日本を襲うのではと懸念している。 5 "A rise in ocean temperatures caused by global warming caused all those typhoons to be generated," he says. "Just a minor change in atmospheric pressure is enough to generate them. Since ocean temperatures this year are even higher than they were in 2004, I won't be surprised to see a large number of typhoons. They are also becoming more powerful. It's possible that Japan will be hit be not one, but several big ones." 「地球温暖化にともなう海水温度の上昇が、台風を発生させます」と彼は言う。 「大気圧のちょっとした変化でさえ台風の発生には十分過ぎます。今年の海水温度は2004年の時よりも高くなっているので、多くの数の台風がやってくることになっても私は驚かないでしょう。台風はまたより強力になってきています。一つどころか幾つもの台風に日本が襲われることはありうることです」 6 Japan's Meteorological Agency defines the largest class of typhoon as having winds in excess of 54 meters per second, or with a radius of 800 kilometers or greater. The famous killer typhoon that struck Ise Bay (centered around Mie and Aichi Prefectures) in 1959 had winds measuring 60 meters per second and boasted a radius of 900 kilometers. 日本の気象庁は、風速が秒速54メートル以上か半径が800キロ以上の場合、台風が最大クラスであると規定している。 1959年に伊勢湾(三重県と愛知県にまたがる)を襲った有名な殺人台風は、秒速60メートルと観測された風力を持ち、900キロメートルもの半径を誇っていた。 7 Hypothetically, if a typhoon in the class of the monster that flattened Ise Bay in 1959 were to strike the capital, it would be capable of flooding --- get this --- 41 percent of Tokyo's 23 central wards, inundating a total area of 265 square kilometers, including major parts of Koto, Sumida, Taito and Arakawa wards. A similar catastrophe in Osaka would inundate the low-lying parts of Konohana, Minato, Taisho and Suminoue wards. 理論上では、もし1959年に伊勢湾を打ちのめしたようなモンスタークラスの台風が首都を直撃すれば、その台風には、なんと、東京23区の41%に洪水を起こし、全部で265平方キロメートルの面積を反乱させる能力があり、その範囲には江東区・台東区・荒川区の大部分が含まれるだろう。 大阪で同様の災害が起これば、此花区・港区・大正区・スミノウエ区(*1)の低平地を浸水させるであろう。 8 "Because urban streets are paved, the excess water would be channeled underground," says Toru Nakamura, an executive at the National Institute for Land and Infrastructure Management. "The small rivers and streams are not well protected from overflowing, and there's a strong risk that the subways would become inundated in a very short time. If that happens, people might be find themselves caught in flash floods and unable to flee in time." 「都会の道は舗装されているので、過剰な水は地下へと向かうでしょう」と、国土技術政策総合研究所の室長・中村トオル(*2)氏のことと思われる)はいう。 「小さな河川は反乱に対する備えが十分ではなく、極めて短時間のうちに地下鉄が浸水してしまう強い危険性があります。もしそんなことが起こったら、人々はあっというまにおしよせる浸水にとりこまれてしまって逃げ出すことが不可能であることに気がつくはめになりかねません」 9 In the event of a monster typhoon, the most sensible precaution would be to head for the safety of the hills at least a day before it arrives. 万一モンスター台風が来る場合に最も懸命な予防措置は、台風がやってくる少なくとも一日前に安全な高台へと向かうことであろう。 10 "Above all else you need to have the right understanding of the data at hand," advises the aforementioned Murayama. "Since typhoon information is issued 24 hours beforehand and data on torrential rains at least several hours in advance, you can take measures to be sure you're out of harm's way." (By Masuo Kamiyama,People's Pick Wai Wai writer) July 16, 2005 「他のなにごとよりも大事なのは、手元のデータを正しく理解する必要するがあることです」と前述の村山は助言する。 「台風情報は24時間前に、集中豪雨のデータは少なくとも前もって数時間前に発表されるので、危険から確実に逃れる処置を取ることができます。」 (ピープルズピック・Wai Waiライター カミヤママスオ記) 2005年6月16日 参考資料 財団法人日本気象業務支援センター http //ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%B0%97%E8%B1%A1%E6%A5%AD%E5%8B%99%E6%94%AF%E6%8F%B4%E3%82%BB%E3%83%B3%E3%82%BF%E3%83%BC 村山貢司 http //ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%9D%91%E5%B1%B1%E8%B2%A2%E5%8F%B8 伊勢湾(伊勢湾台風) http //ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E4%BC%8A%E5%8B%A2%E6%B9%BE%E5%8F%B0%E9%A2%A8 国土技術政策総合研究所 http //ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%9B%BD%E5%9C%9F%E6%8A%80%E8%A1%93%E6%94%BF%E7%AD%96%E7%B7%8F%E5%90%88%E7%A0%94%E7%A9%B6%E6%89%80 拡散状況 チェコ語サイト http //gnosis9.net/view.php?cisloclanku=2005070009 英語サイト http //www.surfingtheapocalypse.net/cgi-bin/archive.cgi?noframes;read=87635 関連ページ WaiWaiの記事を転載した英語サイト：S 毎日新聞英語版から配信された記事2005年 毎日新聞英語版から配信された記事一覧 記事が及ぼした影響
