Magic Presents: Pride

This weekend it is Brighton Pride , a wonderful time to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community. We’re excited to bring back Magic Presents: Pride from last year and invite you to celebrate it with us again!

For the Magic Presents: Pride event, treat all eligible commanders as though they had the partner ability. This allows players to add an additional commander to a deck they already have or use a never-before-seen combination of two commanders to helm a totally new deck.

Commanders that already have abilities like partner won’t let players have more than two commanders at this event, but we applaud their enthusiasm. Remember that the extra commander still counts toward the 100 cards in their deck.

Aside from that additional rule, everything else is the same as you would play any other Commander game in our store, 

Everyone that takes part will get an additional promo card, which is ...

SANTIANOS V - Week 2

Having survived the first skirmish, the party continue their hunt for Commander Valtus. Shortly after they rested from battle they discovered an injured resistance member from a previous mission. His name was Crescent Moon a Jackal driver, the only survivor of a failed mission to transport resources back to other resistance groups. 

Crescent Moon tells the party that the vehicle was attacked and his companions had all been killed. The vehicle had been damaged and he had been injured in the crash, he managed to get away but had feared he would die of his wounds and that if they could help him, he would tell them where the vehicle could be found. Although in a dangerous location, if they could defend it long enough he was sure he could repair it and transport them to where ever they needed to go.

This would aid their mission greatly and the party agreed that this would be worth the risk.

Ta'l Nehekra'ta used a medipack to dress Crecent Moons wounds and told the party that he would carry Crescent Moon, if the others could provide cover he was confident he could get him to the vehicle.

They made it to the crashed vehicle fairly quickly and without suffering any major wounds. Once there unfortunately their luck changed. A machine gun crew managed to set up behind them and opened fire upon the party, only Ta'l Nehekra'ta was lucky enough to find cover in a nearby building, the rest of the party were hit by a hail of bullets, it was a miracle no one was killed.

The party fought with the increasing amount of guardsman that had been alerted to the attempt to rescue the vehicle, whilst Crescent Moon desperately tried to get it working.

After what felt like hours the vehicle suddenly spluttered into life and Earendil who had bravely defended the repairs and taken the worst of the gun fire and was bleeding badly called the rest of the party to "jump in quickly". 

They speed away from the frustrated guardsmen and once out of sight, stopped, camouflaged the vehicle and took time to assess the damage. Earendil, Tsing Tau and Rhaast were all badly wounded but hopefully after dressing their wounds and some rest would be able to continue in their mission to find Commander Vatlus.

OUTER RIM TRIAL

 

To celebrate the Galatic Championship event being held in Las Vegas this weekend we are running a special OUTER RIM TRIAL EVENT.

This will be a draft event using cards from Jump to Light Speed. It will cost £15 to play and everyone that enters will get a promo pack and the top 8 players will also get a Carbonite Booster just for playing.

What is a draft event?

In Star Wars: Unlimited draft play, players open three booster packs, draft leaders, and then draft cards from the packs. Players choose one leader from the three they drafted and build a minimum 30-card deck using the drafted cards and any common base. They can use a rare base they drafted as well. The first pack is passed left, the second right, and the third left again.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

1. Opening Packs and Leader Draft:

• Each player opens three booster packs.
• Players remove the leader and base cards from each pack without looking at the other cards.
• Players then draft their leaders. They choose one leader from the three available and pass the other two to the right. The player to the left then gives them two leaders, and the player chooses one, passing the remaining one to the right.
• This process continues until each player has three leaders, which become their leader options for the draft.

2. Card Drafting:

• Players then draft cards from the packs, one at a time.
• The first pack is passed to the left, the second to the right, and the third to the left.
• Each player selects one card from the pack they receive and passes the rest to the next player.
• This continues until all cards from the three packs have been drafted.

3. Deck Building:

After drafting, players build a deck using the cards they drafted, plus their chosen leader and base. The minimum deck size is 30 cards.

Players can choose any common base or a rare base they drafted.

 
Players can include any number of copies of the same card in their deck.

4. Game Play:

In official Organized Play, draft matches are best-of-three, with a 55-minute round.

The event winner will get an additional Carbonite Booster and become our Champion of the Outer Rim.

SANTIANOS V - Week One

OUR PARTY OF UNLIKELY ALLIES WAS SENT TO REMOVE THE THREAT THAT IS COMMANDER VALTUS.

COMMANDER VALTUS COMMANDS ONE OF THE MANY COMMS RELAYS THAT THE HLF HAVE SET UP ACROSS SANTIANOS V.

UNFORTUNATELY THE MISSION WAS ALMOST OVER BEFORE IT STARTED WHEN THEIR SHIP WAS  AMBUSHED SHORTLY AFTER LANDING, AND THE INITIAL BATTLE RESULTED IN  MANY CASUALTIES, INCLUDING the PILOT. NOW theY MUST CONTINUE the MISSION WITH DWINDLING NUMBERS AND A LOW CHANCE OF EVAC....

time to meet the party...

commander tsing tau formally part of the DAU union, he is equipped with advance weapons and relies on HIS ranged weapons. he comes from a society that rejects selfish impulses and he depends on this logic.

Eärendil, son of Ulthwé a high elf sniper. he is a survivor of the original colonistS that build the the cities long before the humans came to claim santianos v. he is said to be an excellent shot and often claims his kills without ever being seen.

Ta'l Nehekra'ta and Rhaast are automatons originally built as SERVANTS TO THE elves who gained SENTIENCE and originally fought the high elves but now made peace and fight together to reclaim their planet.

once they composed themselves after the ambush, they set about their first mission to investigate the immediate threat, with the hope of finding who they would need to INTERROGATE to  FIND THE LOCATION OF COMMANDER VALTUS.

THE PARTY SPLIT, THE TWO AUTOMATONS ATTEMPTING TO GATHER INTEL, WHILE THE OTHERS DISTRACTED THE TROOPERS.

DURING THE MISSION ONE OF THE PARTY WAS INJURED. COMANDER TSING TAU TOOK A LOT OF DAMAGE FROM A PARTICULARLY RESILIENT TROOPER ARMED WITH A DRUM RIFLE. A JOINT EFFORT BETWEEN TSING TAU AND EÄRENDIL EVENTUALLY OVERWHELMED THE TROOPER AND ALLOWED THEM TO CATCH UP WITH TA'L NEHEKRA'TA AND RHAAST.

TA'L NEHEKRA'TA AND RHAAST HAD ALREADY WORKED WHO THEY NEEDED TO FIND AND WAITED PATIENTLY FOR THE SQUAD OF CONCRIPTS ARRIVED WITH THE DOCUMENTS THAT THEY NEEDED. THE TWO AUTOMATONS EFFICIENTLY DEALT WITH THIS SQUAD AND GAINED THE DOCUMENTS.

ALL THAT WAS LEFT WAS TO ESCAPE AND IT NEEDED TA'L NEHEKRA'TA TO TAKE A LOT OF STRESS TO OBSURE THEIR RETREAT USING HIS ABILITIES AS A CASTER

THE PARTY ALL SURVIVED AND RESTED BEFORE CONTINUING THEIR MISSION.

Coming Soon ...

Santianos V

 

Our first ever OPR Star Quest campaign starts tonight...

"Santianos V was a humble little planet that used to be home to people of all races and ways of life. 

However, around 20 years ago, the Human Liberation Front came to Santianos V and immediately claimed control of the planet under the command of Captain Edgar Dawnbreaker and his advisor Professor Tobias Greenacre. They forced out the inhabitants of the planet and restricted access to the planet to strictly humans. They also allowed the dwarves to remain due to a treaty signing where the HLF invited them into their regime to work as miners and labourers, with the Manheim Mining Guild running the industry. 

A sect of stragglers and outcasts remained on Santianos V, and after a few years of gathering and planning, they began launching attacks on various areas of interest. 

Your party has been given an aircraft and has been sent to take out Commander Valtus, who commands one of the many comms relays that the HLF have set up across Santianos V, but you were ambushed shortly after landing, and while you fought off the ambush, you suffered many casualties, including your pilot. Now you must continue your mission with dwindling numbers and a low chance of evac."

Two-Headed Giant Commander Night

Once the new MTG set Edge of Eternities releases later this month, we will be adding a new Two-Headed format to our commander nights. Two-Headed Giant Commander is an ideal event for introducing new players to Magic with the support of friends or mentors, while also giving returning players a chance to test new Commander deck builds. 

Participants earn additional Commander promo cards for playing. 

In this fun, casual format, teams of two face off in two-versus-two matches.

Why Play This Format?

• Multiplayer format where teams of friends battle 2v2!
• Learn the game by pairing with experienced players.
• Strategize and share information with your teammate as you play!

Play Rules/Modifiers

Play, plan, and battle as a team. In Two-Headed Giant, the life total is shared and starts at 30 life. 

In Two-Headed Giant, each two-player teams shares a starting 30 life and takes their turn simultaneously. 

The team does not share any other resources other than life. For instance, any reference to "you" on a card still applies to the individual holder.

Effects that read "each opponent" or "each player", however, affect each team member separately. Players can block any creature(s) that are attacking them, their teammates or Planeswalkers their team controls.

The team that goes first skips their first draw step.

Constructed: Commander: 99 card deck + a Commander card.

Our 18th Anniversary

KD Games has several anniversaries, recently we had our first year at our current venue of 32a High Street in Shoreham and later this year will be the 12th year since we rebranded to KD Games, but this week it 18 years since we opened our doors on our very first shop Kids Dreams in 2007.

Originally we opened as a toy shop selling traditional and pocket money toys but it was not long before we started selling or first gaming products from of course Games Workshop followed very quickly by Magic the Gathering and Pokemon.

A lot has changed since then both in what we sell and how we operate. As KD Games, we stopped selling toys and have concentrated on board games, tabletop and card games. We have been in many different locations and served many many different people and are delighted to still be here 18 years later.

I have lost count of the amount of games we have sold and the amount of different events, clubs, tournaments and demonstrations we have run over the years.

I have had the pleasure of knowing some of you since those very early days in Hove and in many cases seen people that started playing when they were just children go on to still enjoying games in to their adulthood.

As a community you have been a big part of my families lives, my children have grown up during this time and I have had the pleasure of seeing many of your families grow too. I have made so many good friends during this time, it has been great sharing the good times with you and I have been grateful for the support many of you have shown us through the harder times.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our customers; old and new for spending your hard earned money with us and making the last 18 years so much fun. I look forward to many more years of gaming to come.
