Brought to you by:

There are missing card in the Database for The Forgotten Realms series.
Some noted are : Card #111 Lightfoot Rogue, Card#108 Herald Of Hadar, Card @001 +2 Mace , Card#044 Aberant Mind Sorcerer.. Etc.. There are a few more not listed here.
They appear on the https://gatherer.wizards.com/ webside. Just not in Magic Assistant.
I've also tried updating a few times.

I can confirm this. And other bug that could be related is that some cards, like Prosperous Innkeeper or Magic Missile, only appear as promo versions. I have also tried updating the database for the set a few times and nothing changed.
+2 Mace is because Gatherer is so poorly maintained it is actually missing the card.
The other missing cards are in gatherer though. Some sort of import error. I did see errors in a logfile but they weren't helpful at a glance to see what about these cards is unusual.
(Another argument for shifting to Scryfall as the primary source for importing. Looks like work is in progress on that but not released?)
Chaos Channeler #136
I've noticed missing cards too that are in the gatherer and the theme seems to be they have the "roll d20" text with a new card format which might have something to do with it. See Hoarding Ogre #146, Earth-Cult Elemental #141, or Goblin Morningstar #145
JUST FYI - ALSO MISSING:
Spiked Pit Trap #251, Goblin Morningstar #145, Contact Other Plane #052, +2 Mace #001, Power of Persuasion #067, Arcane Investigator #046, Scion of Stygia #070, Sylvan Shepherd #206, Herald of Hadar #108, Farideh's Fireball #142, Chaos Channeler #136, Earth-cult Elemental #141, Hoarding Ogre #146.
Is it feasible to just edit the Adventures_in_the_Forgotten_Realms.xml manually with the missing cards?
Yes. Editing does work. I've attached mine.
The only catch is that I had to come up with my own ID# for +2 Mace since it isn't in Gatherer. If it ever gets added, I would want to fix that. Other than that, I don't think I bothered with italics for flavour words or reminder text.
I was just in the midst of editing a version of that myself. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you very much for sharing!
The problem is also present on other languages. I'm trying to update my collection in French and some cards are missing even though they are in gatherer. An example is Loathsome Troll / Troll Répugnant which is available in both designs in French.
Hello, I made an application to build MA database from scryfall. I you'Re ready to testit, this could be a good workaround I think
