Chronicles (Magic: The Gathering)
''Chronicles'' was the twelfth ''Magic: The Gathering'' set, and the first compilation set, released in July 1995 by Wizards of the Coast. The set is one of two sets that have been sold in twelve-card booster packs, the other having been ''Alliances''.
== Cards ==
''Chronicles'' introduced no new cards; the set was designated as an extension of the 4th Edition core set for the purpose of tournament play. ''Chronicles'' consists entirely of cards reprinted from the first four Magic: the Gathering expansions: ''Arabian Nights'', ''Antiquities'', ''Legends'', and ''The Dark''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Blog.MTGPrice.com )〕 The cards in ''Chronicles'' are white-bordered, in accordance with the Wizards of the Coast policy of the time that black-bordered cards would only be reprinted with white borders. In addition, the game text on many ''Chronicles'' cards was updated to reflect then-current rules, rulings, and templating. For example, ''Cyclone'' from ''Arabian Nights'' instructed players to place "chips" on the card to mark its status, while the ''Chronicles'' reprint of ''Cyclone'' used "counters" instead, as had become standard usage.
''Arabian Nights'', ''Antiquities'', ''Legends'', and ''The Dark'' quickly sold out in the hobby-gaming market, so both new and existing players had extremely limited access to cards from those sets at the time. ''Chronicles'' was printed to satisfy the market demand of players who had been unable to buy as much of the first four expansions as they wished, or who were new players and missed those expansions entirely.〔 Wizards of the Coast's development team for Chronicles excluded powerful, abusive cards that were the frequent sources of player complaints, such as ''Mana Drain'', ''The Abyss'', ''Nether Void'', ''Moat'', and ''Maze of Ith'', while including cards that they determined had a high "coolness factor" and would drive sales with the predominantly-casual player base for ''Magic'' at the time, such as the Elder Dragon Legends, ''The Wretched'', ''Sol'Kanar the Swamp King'', ''Dakkon Blackblade'', and the three "Urza's Lands" from ''Antiquities''. Tournament players added ''Chronicles'' reprints ''City of Brass'', ''Erhnam Djinn'', ''Recall'', ''Divine Offering'', ''Fountain of Youth'', and ''Feldon's Cane'' to their decks at tournaments such as the first Pro Tour New York in February, 1996.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Angelfire.com )〕
