Lately I have had the urge to play not Magic: The Gathering but other, less popular trading card games of the nineteen nineties.

elmo argonaut, Monday, 26 November 2007 20:11 (sixteen years ago) link

with all the cheap cards i will now have, i will make you two decks and send them to you via post in exchange for something of equal value (i.e. nearly worthless.)

ian, Monday, 26 November 2007 20:25 (sixteen years ago) link

What did you get from Teddy's? I'm a huge fan of their avgolemono soup and lemon potatoes.

Forks: You should ask him if you can buy them for $10.

Good fans and friends of MECCG!

It has been some time since the last newsletter, sadly there were no major meccg events to report.
but now as winter approaches, our Tookish meccg blood starts to boil again, and the calendar is filled with great gaming opportunities.
And there is other important news as well.

News:

Erratum Proposal:
After long debate and due considerations, the Council of Elrond proudly presents their first official Erratum Proposal to the community.
We would like you to take a good look at the proposal, and then give us your vote.
If the proposal is accepted, the Erratum will be officially used in all Council of Elrond sanctioned tournaments (including Worlds and Lure).
for the proposal, see:
http://www.councilofelrond.org/forum/viewforum.php?f=103

Dream Card - First Folk:
The DC team has decided to boldly go where no one has ever gone before. There will be new meccg cards!
After many years of designing, play testing, and glueing their home made prints on meccg cards, the team has decided to professionally print the first two sets of dream cards.
This will remain an exclusive project for the meccg community. Anyone who signs in can buy the cards at cost price, but there will be no distribution otherwise.
to know more about this great new project, see:
http://www.councilofelrond.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=1864

G.A.B. White Mithril Team:
Timo Lutter has reactivated the WM team section at the GAB site. If you are into trading MECCG cards, its always good to find trustworthy traders. More infos:
http://www.councilofelrond.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=1915


Events:
The French will hold a well attended tournament "At the Grey Havens", in Lille, from 28-30 September
http://www.councilofelrond.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=77&t=1919

In Finland there will be the (in)famous FinnTroll, from 20-21 October
http://www.councilofelrond.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1973

The Germans will hold their national championships at Giessen this year, 3-4 November
http://www.councilofelrond.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=94&t=1980

Finally the Swiss meet for their annual Championships at Frauenfeld on 21th October
http://www.councilofelrond.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=94&t=1986

Lure of MECCG XIII: 1. – 3. March 2013. First details are up already
http://www.lureofmeccg.org/

Fallen-wizard Sealed League Cup 2012 (starting on Sep 27th)
http://www.councilofelrond.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1979

The Pre-release tournament to the Dream Card expansion First Folk has started already.
http://www.councilofelrond.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1965
While joining is no longer possible, of course you can watch the games and join the discussions.


So, hopefully we'll see each other at one of these events, and you will join and support us in the new projects.

iatee, Monday, 24 September 2012 18:18 (eleven years ago) link

there is a new version of richard garfield's post-magic game netrunner, i never played it back in the day but it looks kinda cool, asymmetric gameplay and cheeseball 90s cyberpunk.

i would like to play jyhad again, or spellfire.

adam, Monday, 24 September 2012 18:52 (eleven years ago) link

wait, what? I think I played it about twice after ordering the cards on ebay post-2000. Still have them, they look awesome. Is the new one revised or just a reissue?
