More cards does not equal more creativity.

A larger card pool equals less restrictions on creativity. Unless you choose to define creativity as coping with a limited card pool. I don't.

I think figuring out how to build a competitive deck in the absence of commonly used resources is a more creative endeavor than starting every library with the same "module" of cards that have become considered "musts".

Yeah, sure. There was a guy who built a full scale model of a Ferrari out of tooth picks. I didn't think there was anything creative about it. Someone might disagree.

Suoli,
for example you can go to local store and purchase HttB starters for 10 euros for which you get 2 Villeins.

I'd hardly call that "not so easy" escpecially as the pub where local weekly games is played is upstairs from that store...

You are lucky. You have chance to buy probably one of the last free HttB starters for normal cost. HTTP Starters are not in stocks in any shop on the internet. And local store is out of it for a long time.

Where do you get yours?

Purchasing starters to last for less than one day is IMHO very inept of the local distributor. Not ordering any more before they sold out is an epic fail.

Good point: propably the link should direct to the English version front page instead of Finnish version VtES products. The English version can be found from the front page, which could be pretty difficult to find if someone doesn't understand Finnish - which could be pretty much the case with majority of people in here.
