Limited amount of cards

Ok the reason for my worry is that when I look at the little number on any Chaotic card there is that 232.

Now I can say that number is very small variety for a TCG. Do you think more different cards (not copies of the same card different cards) would be printed than that?

Well, I think that's just it: they can get away with only having 232 (though some cards say 250, such as Elixir of Tenacity and Viledriver), because one card can have several different versions. What I'd like to know is if there is a fixed number of versions for each card, or if the stats/abilities for the card are randomly determined (meaning near-infinite versions). If there is only 5 different versions of the same card, a dedicated collector can obtain them all. But if each card is truly unique when it comes to stats and abilities, collectors would probably go mad trying to obtain each one.

well I presume that every cards diciplines have a range of 10, so that each single dicipline could have 3 possible numbers (say, 50, 55, and 60), when you do the math for all diciplines you end up with up to 48 different possibilities for every card (I think, unless I did my math wrong..)

Never mind Dragonix said this is just the # of cards in the first set.

Thats a good question, I actually asked a similar question to the people at 4Kids, but they would not tell me anything at this time, except they will have a checklist of some kind available "shortly" before the game launches.

FYI, the 250 may be in reference to the fact that there was originally going to be 250 cards in the set (as there were in the original version from Denmark), but they decided to cut out 18.  Also, they will be releasing booster packs (hopefully within a year after launch) to bulk up the base offering and should also be including additional tribes.

You should notice on the pdfs that the if you take a photo of the card with Adobe Reader, the variable stats don't appear. It's text put over the cards, so that'd tell you what scores are variable. Anyway i think they have said that there all unique, and theyve said that all cards have different stats.
