Day 19 and today we have reduction in our games hire. A great time to get something to play over the holidays.
Here is a look at this on the other offers so far...
New for 2025
Following the huge popularity of Halo: Flashpoint's starter sets we're already seeing lots of interest in Wave 2, which will include multiple releases between January-March 2025.
Let's see briefly what Wave 2 is going to be focussing on - capture those objectives Spartan!
Mantic will be introducing deluxe neoprene gaming mats, packs of additional UNSC card scenery for denser maps, and also UNSC plastic scatter terrain - brilliant items to take cover behind, and full of interesting shapes that make these areas feel even more 'lived-in' and real. They're also good chunky terrain pieces - check out the below image to get a feel for just how big they really are.
The must-have 'jewel in the crown' of Wave 2 is the War Games Expansion - your passport to building custom fireteams with the introduction of points values. As well as the War Games booklet, this expansion box also comes with new minis, new cards, new tokens, and more.
Alongside this, Msntic will also be releasing two new Fireteam sets - Cerberus (full of totally new loadouts) and Hydra (which contains the 4 'extra' loadouts previously exclusive to the Spartan Edition).

There’s also commentary from the designers on what went into the new edition.Working tirelessly to emancipate themselves in preparation for the Star Children, the Genestealer Cults are this month’s cover stars. An in-depth investigation into their movements in Warzone Chalnath accompanies a profile on the Quarry Rats, an expansive revolutionary army created by one of the Warhammer 40,000 team, and new rules for Genestealer Cults Crusade campaigns that expand on the offering in their Codex.

Quarter Century Stampede - Last Call for Quarter Century Secret Rares!
Last Call for Quarter Century Secret Rares!
Coming in April, Quarter Century Stampede will be your last chance to get some of your all-time favourite cards as Quarter Century Secret Rares before this spectacular, shining rarity is gone forever.
This direct successor to Quarter Century Bonanza uses its same set and pack configuration, including a core set of more than 80 tournament-level cards, another massive 200-card nostalgia reprint pool, and a guaranteed Luxury Secret Rare per pack, etc.
Survey results are in and contained quite a few surprises! Thank you, Duelists, for voting! Every card has its fans, and over three thousand different cards had at least one Duelist voting for them to be included. There just isn’t space in the set for everyone, alas.
Of the Top 100 card finalists in the poll, about a third are already in Quarter Century Bonanza, which is available now.
Another third were cards we were already planning to include in Quarter Century Stampede. And even though the poll was for the 200-card nostalgia set, lots of these cards were scheduled for the core set, available in multiple rarities, so we’re going to keep them there in the core set. These include old favourites like Miscellaneousaurus, Xtra HERO Cross Crusader, and Cyber Dragon Infinity, plus lots of newer cards like Mulcharmy Fuwalos, Chamber Dragonmaid, and Salamangreat Raging Phoenix. Other top-voted cards, like the heavily demanded Trap Dustshoot and Metamorphosis, are headed straight to the nostalgia pool as planned.
As for the rest… Petit Moth!? Okay, it’s going in the nostalgia pool! Along with other top finishers like Lovely Labrynth of the Silver Castle and Master Peace, the True Dracoslaying King. All 200 nostalgia pool cards will be included 1 per pack in either Platinum Secret Rare or Quarter Century Secret Rare, just like in Quarter Century Bonanza. We’ll be showing off more cards as we get closer to the set’s release!

Jump Start 2025 Days
Starting on November 30th we will running Jumpstart 2025 Holiday Play Day events!
The idea behind Jumpstart 2025 Holiday Play Days is simple: when you want to jump in for a quick round of Magic, you can join this event using Foundations Jumpstart packs to give you a fantastic play experience in less than half the time as a typical in-store event.
This events will continue through to January 5, 2025, depending on the amount of interest there is in our community, players of all stripes can come enjoy quick games of Magic with the powerful play that comes alongside Foundations Jumpstart!How Jumpstart 2025 Holiday Play Days will work.
Ahead of the event, we will print match slips for players to track who they play against during the event. Simply grab one of these when you arrive and find yourself someone to play against.
For this event, we will use rolling pairings. This means that you can match up with new opponents as soon as they finish their games. Continue to play against people that you haven't played with before, paying no mind to wins or losses.
Rolling pairings means no rounds, which is less waiting and a faster event for you, it gets everyone to jump into the most important part: play!
Players should play one game per opponent and be allowed a free mulligan with their game. After completing three games, players turn in their match slips for rewards!
If players finish their three games and want to keep going, then you can jump right back in with a new Jumpstart combination! They can continue playing and help other players fill out their match slips and earn a prize.
