The Vanguard League had 9 players this week and we managed to get 4 rounds in this week and with three players Michael, Alec and Tobi all winning 3 games it was pretty close, the eventual winner however was ..... Michael

and the result was ...

KD Magic Night

This Friday (22nd November) we will be holding our first KD Magic Night which will replace the FNM events that we used to run when the shop was still open. As many of you will be aware we can not run officially sanctioned MTG events now that we do not have a high street store. We can however still run our own versions of these events.

In fact other than the fact that you will not earn Planeswalker points and we will no longer get promotional cards the events will be much the same as they were before. For the first few events we will still have the remaining promotional cards isued for November.

Our first event will be STANDARD and will cost slightly more than it used to cover the cost of the room hire which will be £3. Prizes will be given for the top two players as normal which will be ....

Registration for the event will start at 5:30pm and you are requested to pay your entry fee when you arrive. The event will start at 6pm and will consist of 4 swiss rounds. We will be using challonge.com to run the event which will allow us to post the results on line as they happen. The event should be finished by 10pm at the latest.

It is the location that is the biggest change, will be in the function room at the Royal George on the Holmbush roundabout in Shoreham.

For those that like fine tune decks, trade and socialise before the event doors will open at 4pm for casual play. I have created a Facebook event so please confirm you attendance.

Lords of War Update

With the closure of the shop everything has been a bit hectic and I have not been keeping upto date with the Lords of War Kick Starter Project. Well it appear that a lot has happened and some of the announcements look really interesting. I have already backed this and if you have not have a look at this message from the guys at Black Box and then I think you will agree its certainly worth a few pounds ....

"Thank you everyone for pushing us over £7,500 - we're definitely on our way now!

We've had plenty of people asking about stretch goals - particularly playmats made of some more robust and/or luxurious materials... Well, we now have costs and are crunching the numbers to figure out what we can afford to make happen! 

Without getting too specific though, we would like to confirm thatwe will be offering:

- Shiny versions of particular cards (and possibly whole decks!)

- Custom, embossed Lords of War card tins

- Special Edition, Kickstarter-only foam playmats

- Plastic Lords of War 6-card card holders

- Card sleeves (naturally!)

...and, most excitingly...

- The Lords of War: Terrain & Weather Expansion Pack!!!

This last item is something we're really excited about - we've explained it to many people at conventions or after they have written to us over the last 10 months... it's been ready (on paper) for ages but, well, we've been waiting to share the idea with a bigger crowd!

Just to outline the basics, Weather cards would provide modifiers which would stay in effect for a single round, while Terrain cards change areas of the battlefield for the duration of the game. With a range of ways to play, including an optional Terrain-laying Pre-Game, Weather-only mods, Capture the Flag and a King of the Hill modes and more, the Lords of War: Terrain & Weather Expansion Pack takes Lords of War in a host of new directions!

With Marshes to sabotage Cavalry, Caves to fight through, Mountains to snipe from, Treasure to claim, Walls to build and dozens more modifiers to avoid or exploit, if we get the funding we need then Lords of War: Terrain & Weather is going to change the way you play forever.

For the time being though, we're just over the moon that we're at 37%... let's not forget, there's still a long way to go!

Thanks everyone, and please keep spreading the campaign. Next stop, 50%!
