You are correct. Pack 5&6 are for the new LCG era of Cthulhu.

'Scuse the noob question Im assuming its not? Does this mean one can build their deck right out of one box in this game? TIA
You are correct. You shoul dbe able to build your deck right out of the Core box.

Sure, a tournament will come that allows only the Core and perhaps new-back AP cards (or AP Seven and up. Who knows). And yes, you are guaranteed all those cards with purchase. Differentiated from CCG by white borders and a new back, the new cards are nevertheless a sharp minority of the collection. In answer to the collectibiltiy question - of course the game is collectible! There are now 1,347 playable cards. Forty are new look LCG (AP 5 and 6) - fixed. Eighty more comprise the remaining four previous APs - fixed. Twenty are premium (AP and EP) and thus also not inserted, but fixed (not actually fixed by definition, but same difference). So if you want the whole set, you are still busting open packs to get the 1,207 that aren't fixed ( number includes 27 promos, seven yithians - which are found otherwise). By busting packs of course I mean, and all the other myriad ways one COLLECTS CCGs. 29 AE premiums and 84 EE premiums (besides their collectors info) are duplicates from their respective blocks. So, without the duplicates, there are 1,234 playable cards out (including AP 6 Ancient Horrors). How's my math? I'd be amazed if it was exactly correct.

Two of the promos are story cards, so less the playable card number by 2.

Another dunb question
I've stayed awat from CCG for years,since the old Chaosim Mythos days,
as the random collectable money pit got to much.
I just have 1 other person intrested so if we both only got 1 pack as they are released
we would be even.So buying 3 decks to get 3 of each card would not be necessary or
does having 3 of each card have some other effect on the game,besides just giving you a
deeper draw pool?

Now extract their cruel tax,

Another question to throw out there. Are multiples of the same rare allowed. So if I wanted 3 of the same rare would I therefore have to buy 3 of the pre-set expansions?
Now for a comment instead of a question! 
I really like this idea as collectible anything in a game format sits poorly with me. I did sample and enjoy the game mechanics of this particular CCG, its just not a format I would keep up with. This sounds like a great way to handle a game like this.

3 sets gives you more chance to draw the rare card from your deck. So no other advantage than a deeper card draw.

3 rares are allowed so yes you would have to buy 3 expansions.

However since each asylum pack ius only 10 bucks you would be able to catch up to him quickly and have the EXACT same cardpool.
With everyone having the exact same cards it comes down to tallent and creativity. Virtualy no rare chasing. Yes, you have to buy all 3 asylum packs to get all 3 rares but they are guaranteed in every pack since all packs are 40 cards fixed. 30$ and you have a complete playset of all the cards you need for that set.
IMO you can't go wrong with CoC.
Over Land and in the Firmament doth Chaose marche, and the Beneathe is not free from it..
As an old COC player looking at the new developments of LCG COC the following questions arises:
- How will future tournaments rule about older cards, the so called legacy cards. Are they prohibited to play with? The idea of only one coreset and a monthly assylum pack with 20 new cards sounds money-saving. However when older cards will still be admitted in tournaments, people who lack these cards will probably always loose.
- Will there actually be a new assylum pack every month? These assylum packs are around for a while but i cant remember they came out every month or so.

Welcome back, Darkman! So far the AP's have been developed individually, as stand alone expansions. However, from Spawn of the Sleeper on, there is a cycle collectively known as "Summons of the Deep Expansion" which will have a new "episode" each month in the form of an Asylum Pack that can be enjoyed as a part of the collective whole. So, Summons of the Deep is a 120 card expansion, but instead of being released all at once in randomized packs, as the blocks before, they're launched as fixed decks in 6 steps.
That the Starres eat...that those falling Starres, as some call them, which are found on the earth in the form of a trembling gelly, are their excrement.

This a such an outstanding concept. My friends and I have agreed to each only purchase the same number of decks we can afford a month -- to keep options even and our ability to hold fun, "fair" games consistent.
Looking forward to it.

Or buy card sleeves. 
In some asylum packs, won't the 10 singles be story cards? Probably not worth buying 3 of those!
