Off to Italy

10th Anniversary Open Reprint Set Countdown

Tuesday, March 22nd, 2011

If I have to write that too often, I’ll cramp, I guess. So 10AORS sounds good to me as an acronym.

So, where are we? Originally I had asked for 500 paid pre-orders to make this reprint a reality for sure. We didn’t get there. I have discussed this with Chris Schoenthal, who has led this project on the player’s side and we agreed that we still want to give the set a chance.

Unfortunately, due to the probably very low number of sets to be printed, I have raised the official price to $39.99. During the pre-order phase in the next 2-4 weeks or so, this is slashed to the originally intended $34.99. Ordo Phoenicis Ascendentis discounts unfortunately do not apply in this case.

So now I have  entered the set in the store, ready to be pre-ordered. If within the next 14 days we reach 150 paid and pre-ordered sets from North America, I will produce the set.

I’ll keep an updated score here on the blog every day or two, to keep you informed of where we are!

So, let’s start it now. We are at

Order this set at my US-Shop now!

Incoming: 24 hours to order APS #22 and #23

Tuesday, March 15th, 2011

I have confirmation that the new APS are going to arrive at the office tomorrow. I will immediately begin to pack an express package to the United States that contains enough APS to fulfill all pre-orders. I will send a secondary package via ship as well, which usually takes 4-6 weeks to arrive.

That means, if you haven’t pre-ordered yet and are looking forward to play with the new cards as soon as possible, you have 24 hours to get your pre-orders in and make sure that there are enough APS in the US warehouse.

Incoming: New OP System

Monday, March 7th, 2011

We are in the last stages of the internal testing for the new Organized Play System.

It will allow all TOs to enter their local and higher-ranked tournaments into the system.

Since the system is fused with the www.cardmasters.de forum, the two things TOs need to make sure is that they are registered as TOs in the system and that they know the names, forum names, and possibly ID #s for each of their participants.

The rankings available will be worldwide, per Warlord, and per country (this means a player needs to register his country, which is voluntary).

At the start not all functions may be available (namely the per country function), but we are getting there.

I’ll keep you posted on the progress.
