Rule Variants for Magic: The Gathering
(Not yet sanctioned for tournament play)

--Live Action Magic
Select cards for Library as per normal.  For each creature in 
Wizard's library, one additional player will be needed.  The 
game play should be performed in a large field, cleared of
all debris and glass products.  Play begins as normal, with
each wizard standing at an opposite end of the field.  Whenever
a player summons a creature or artifact creature,  one of the 
"side players" must move into the field, standing near his 
summoning wizard.  As more creatures are summoned,  they should
ideally form two large lines, standing between their wizard and
the opposing summoned creatures.  Players should be chosen to
represent creatures of a reasonable size (I.e., use a young 
child, not a burly linebacker, to represent a Scryb Sprite).
When a wizard declares an attack,  the appropriate creatures
from his line should charge through the opposing wizards line.
If they succeed, the wizard will take appropriate damage.

Additional, more realistic representations of spells such as
Fireball are not suggested, as the playing field is potentially
inflamable.
