6th-Edition Verification Checklist — v3 (post card-face + board photos)

Status update: the owner's photos of the 6e rulebook and Expansion #1 rules sheet (research/scans/ IMG_4665–4673, transcribed in research/official-6e-card-list.md) have resolved most of the original checklist. Membership and quantities for the 6e basic deck (69 unique + 34 numbers = 125) and Expansion #1 (59 unique + 14 numbers = 75) are now OFFICIAL and encoded in cards.json.

✅ Done (answered by the scans — no photos needed)

• Full deck census / per-card quantities — official rulebook + Exp1 card lists.
• Number-card spread — base 2×12/3×10/4×7/5×4/6×1; Exp1 has its own: 2×5/3×4/4×3/5×2.
• Dispel Creation membership — ×1 basic AND ×2 Exp1 (the "125th card" question is closed).
• Bomb — on neither official list; not in this collection (presumed Exp2/7e-era).
• Trap!, Speedstone — confirmed ×1 each in the basic deck.
• Force Field — official Exp1 card ×1 (the FAQ's "mystery card" identified).
• The die — equipment list: one die numbered 1–4.
• Rulebook wording items — first-round "no combat" phrasing, punch/wall(20)/door(15) damage, pick-up-ends-turn, door auto-relock, 50-50 junction rule, AUTO WARP details, LOS center-to-center (still references the dropped center dots), ADJACENT/L.O.S. markings, hand/draw limits — all confirmed; see rules-notes.md "RESOLVED" section.

✅ Done — card-face spot-checks (owner's photos IMG_4680–4683, 2026-08-15)

All priority card-face checks are resolved; cards.json updated with verbatim text:

• BUTT-HEAD — ATTACK, no LOS: turn into a goat, ram; physical damage = distance moved.
• MEGA-MONSTER — NEUTRAL, L.O.S.: doubles a monster's life-points OR movement.
• GIFT FROM ABOVE — rename from "Gift From God" CONFIRMED (NEUTRAL, no LOS).
• DIMENSIONAL WARP — rename from "Permawarp" CONFIRMED (NEUTRAL; rewritten text captured).
• REDIRECTION — rename from "Rewarp" CONFIRMED (NEUTRAL; rewritten text captured).
• Wands — WARP WAND and STICKY WAND faces confirm "Wand" titles and charge rules.
• SKELETON / TROLL / WRAITH — printed titles are the short names (no "Create ...").
• FORCE FIELD — face matches the FAQ-recovered text (card has printed typo "cating").
• Number cards — base-deck faces 2–6 photographed: NO rules text, just the value in a distinct decorative border per value. (An Exp1 number-card face was not photographed — presumed identical; cosmetic question only.)
• THOUGHT-STEAL — card face prints "THOUGHT STEAL" (unhyphenated); rulebook list hyphenates.

Remaining (optional): batch-photograph the rest of the deck faces to upgrade every card's 5e-database text to 6e-face-verified wording. Only 3 uncertain cards remain in cards.json, all Expansion #2 (not owned): Load Stone & Fighterstone type conflicts, Random's Card naming.

✅ Done — boards (verified by agent from owner's photos IMG_4674–4679)

All six layouts CONFIRMED EXACT with zero corrections, including the D and F doors; each layout appears exactly once; perimeter openings verified on all 24 edges; the "center dot on every space" claim was disproven (no dots on physical boards). See research/boards-verification.md. Still historical-only open items: which 4 layouts shipped in the base box (boards unlabeled; art style suggests E+F are the Exp1 pair), which layout was replaced before 7e, board backs.

✅ Done — physical odds and ends (owner-reported, 2026-08-15)

• Physical dimensions — sector boards are 7.5 in to a side (1.5 in per space).
• Errata sheet — none in the owner's 6e box.
• Token/counter-sheet inventory — DONE: full token set photographed (IMG_4684–4687), inventory in research/tokens-6e.md. 33 token types + 6 double-sided wizard standees + 12 color-keyed treasures. No numbered duration/charge tokens were present (cosmetic-only; digital tracks these natively).

📦 If Expansion Set #2 is ever acquired

Owner does not own Exp2; its 85 entries in cards.json keep null quantities. A census would resolve: quantities, the 85-cards-vs-88-names arithmetic, Bomb's true home, the Full Shield / Pick Lock / Reflection reprints, and the 16 Artifact cards (no scans of them exist anywhere online — photograph individually).
