This is an attempt to bring Momir Basic and MoJhoSto Basic to paper form.

What are Momir Basic and MoJhoSto?

They're online only formats for Magic: the Gathering. You can read more about them here and here and here.

Why do this?

Momir is fantastically fun, and we wanted a way to play during lunch.

Has anyone attempted this before?

Yes! It turns out there are some very clever people out there who like Momir. You can read about a few different attempts.

While awesome, none of these are really the full Momir experience. Using a fast mobile printer that works with mobile devices we're carrying around anyway has produced a better experience.

How does this differ from Momir on MTGO?

There are a few differences.

For starters, we have more control over what creatures are available, while Magic Online is limited to whatever cards are available online. So you can't get a Forest Bear on MTGO!

Second, we've heard (but not confirmed) that Momir on MTGO selects creatures per printing, not per card name like this project. For example, at CMC=0, you're slightly more likely to get Ornithopter because it's been reprinted many times.

How can I make my own?

You're certainly welcome to use this app, but I haven't tested this with any other printer. The printer we use is a Star Micronics SM-S200, which you can get for around $200. You'll also need an android device. We used a Nexus 7 that's running Android 4.2.2. I've also tested it on my Galaxy Nexus, and it works fine, but the interface was designed for the tablet.

What's all the stuff about "Magic"?

Magic: The Gathering is a wonderful collectable card game created, owned, and copyrighted by Wizards of the Coast. You can read more about it at the Official MTG Website.

Where's the database file?

I'm not sure it would be a good idea to distribute an entire database of copyrighted and trademarked content. There's information on the wiki on what the database schema is.

What if I have more questions?

Feel free to email me at mitch@thefoley.net, or on twitter @walkingeyerobot.
