Is there a way to set up practice runs on PCB so that you start with a certain number of spellcards counted as captured?  I'd like to be able to set up my practice runs so that I'm getting my usual amount of Cherry (~2000 on stage 4, usually 2100-2200 on 5, instead of the default 1000) for each token, in order to gauge my border frequency &c as they would occur in a full game.

Sorry I don't know the answer, but if someone knowledgable answers you, could they please also tell me how do practice runs treat rank. Does it assume it's maxed? is it halfway? 0? Does it record your rank when you actually got to that stage on a regular playthru and use it for practice?

I'm wondering cuz sometimes I practice a level alot, and ace it, then I do the real thing and omgwtfpwnedbbq!!111oneoneeleven (sorry I just love making fun of that line lol).

They don't, because PCB doesn't have a rank system. EoSD is the only Windows game that does.

There's another thread asking the same thing on the front page and I think it has been resolved.

There has to some kind of ranking system.  If you go through the stage portion of four without error then Lyrica's first noncard is noticeably harder.  Going to check out Lunasa right now.  Okay, I don't know.  Forget I ever said that.

PCB has a rank system, it's just less noticeable than in EoSD.
