In Phase 2 packs, will Phase 2 cards be mixed with those from Phase 1? Or will the cards be kept separate?
EDIT: Also, when can I preorder the reprinted Phase 1 packs with Redemption cash? Can I send in an order form, and they get sent when the cards are ready? Help me?

Last I heard, there will be Phase 2 packs which have just cards from Phase 2 (like the Phase 1 packs), and then after that they'll start mixing them and you'll just have "Early Church" packs with cards from the entire set.
Not sure if that's still the case.

I would REALLY like some confirmation on this. Somebody? Rob?

Would this be official enough for you? AFAIK nothing has changed regarding release order since then.
IF there is going to be a release of about 60 cards at Nats, with the rest (90?) coming later, how will they be distributed? Will later packs have only the newer cards, a mix favoring the newer cards, or, if we buy early, will be end up with lots of extras of those first 60?
I realize releasing part of the set at Nationals with more cards from the set coming later could be a bit clunky. There are many reasons why we can't get all the cards ready in time for Nationals.
Let's call the 72 cards releasing at Nationals Phase 1. The remaining 78 (or so) cards releasing later this fall = Phase 2. I will set the buy option on the Cactus website up as Phase 1 initially. When new cards arrive, I will add the option of Phase 2. This way you can buy card packs holding only the newly released cards without duplicating Early Church cards you may buy in Aug / Sept. Sound okay? I may use TeP card boxes for Phase 2 to help us avoid confusing Phase 1 and Phase 2.
Eventually, it will just be one big "Early Church set". But, I will give it at least 6 to 8 weeks before I combine them. Can you tell I am making this up as I go along? Or let us say, I am adapting to a new way to printing Redemption cards and still trying to be responsive to the fans. :)
One last thing. The print on demand is running about 30% higher than I understood. The printer has some "handling fees" that I did not see until I ordered the 2 new promo cards this week. This means that if you buy card packs at Nationals, they will hold 6 new cards as I announced a few weeks ago. After that, we can only afford to include 5 new cards in each card pack. Yet, another incentive to come to Nationals if you are able.

When are the phase 2 cards supposed to be released?

Later in the fall, apparently.

Will there be any sneak peeks before they are released officially?
