If you're going to use the CCG to compare weapons, then Mat's ashandarei is way off. BlackAdder Send a noteboard - 27/05/2010 08:42:53 AM
Especially considering how Sweet illustrated it on Moiraine WoTCCG card and on the original cover of "The Eye of the World".
The CCG ashandarei is completely different from the tFoH and ToM versions.

So, I'm going to agree with Deadsy that it's just random chance that Sweet managed to draw the two staffs similarly.

I think it is actually a different old man that has not yet been introduced. Narg - 26/05/2010 04:45:39 AM 1051 Views
And the guy in the middle is not Mat either, but rather another ta'veren we haven't seen yet. BlackAdder - 26/05/2010 05:02:30 AM 934 Views

Can't tell if Mat is still wearing his ter'angreal.... also what is in Mat's bag? Fireworks? Matrimony Cauthon - 25/05/2010 06:41:10 PM 1187 Views

I'm always amazed by how prosaic and mundane Sweet makes these scenes look. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 25/05/2010 07:51:22 PM 1188 Views
I thought Tom was the one with the knife? *NM* Wibble - 25/05/2010 09:39:48 PM 480 Views
Given the third guy has on what I assume is a gleeman's cloak, I think that's Jain Charin. *NM* Tom - 25/05/2010 10:18:47 PM 499 Views
You mean Noal Charin (fun with secret identities) *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 26/05/2010 01:52:55 PM 464 Views
