On February 3rd, 1997, Wizards of the Coast released Visions, an expansion set for Mirage, which was very much like Alliances was the expansion for Ice Age. It expanded upon the new rules from Mirage of Phasing and Flanking, as well as the charms and Enchant Creature or Instant cards.

On March 18, 1965, The IPCRESS File was released to film audiences, just three years after Len Deighton’s book of the same name was published. It was directed by Sidney J. Furie and starred a then-unknown British actor named Michael Caine.

Sid Meier’s Colonization was released in 1994. It was the same turn-based strategy game as it’s predecessor Civilization, but it had a much more detailed visual design. Obviously, these two games are not the same, although they are variations on a theme.

A modern marvel of its time or any time, the B-17; old technology left to rot; a Maxim spoof in the Star Wars Universe; Magic: The Gathering cosplay; and a mashup that I can’t believe hasn’t been done before. This Small Oddities has it all.

On October 8th, 1996, Mirage was released, as a stand alone set similar to Ice Age, for Magic: The Gathering. It had the feel of Ice Age, but was much more balanced and introduced many new card types, such as Charms and Tutors, as well as, adding new tribes and bolstering existing ones. Mirage also created additions to the rule book by adding two new rules; Flanking and Phasing.
