New EU-Shop Online!

Saturday, February 18th, 2012

It always starts simple: Let’s move all those websites to a new server.

Then the troubles start, links and paths don’t work, or a software won’t even operate at all (so far that happened only with the forum, that’s up for heart transplant next ;-)). Then you decide, “while I am at it, I could transfer the old misnomed “warcraft-shop.de” into the much newer shop software I have been using for the US Shop. Suddenly the “few days” allocated for the entire move have turned into a “few weeks”.

Now, though, a new milestone is reached: The new Warlord Online Store for Europe and the World (that’s basically everywhere except North America, which is covered by the old store) is ready!

http://eushop.warlordccg.de

To celebrate this I have pledged out 20€  gift certificates for the first 20 orders of 40€ or higher and till end of March every order will receive a copy of Phoenix Rising, too.

So - I dare you to use the new store. If you still find anything hinky about it, please let me know.

US Shop fixed

Wednesday, February 1st, 2012

In trying to get the new EU shop up I accidently overwrote an innocuous piece of the configuration that stopped the US shop.

Thanks to Don for alerting me to that (Don, I really appreciate you going through all that trouble!).

It’s fixed now (for the US-Shop at least).  The EU-Shop basically works - but right now buying in there would have everybody pay in USD instead of Euros (Euros are shown in the shop, but it’s not the currency that is used for the link to PayPal etc.).

Also on the way is a new restock to Don, but it’s going to take a few days to arrive.

Swamped

Wednesday, January 25th, 2012

Just to let you know - as usual the server change has thrown up more questions (and work) as anticipated.

One of those has been e-mail connection (the mail server changed to). AFAICS no mails were lost, but currently I am getting all e-mails filtered in triplicate (is there a word like “multiplicate”). Makes it very hard to sift through all messages in a timely fashion - and coordinating with Don and Rich on the upcoming Campaign events.

I hope to get that done asap to let you know more about dates and locations.

Currently I am working on getting the EU Shop integrated into the same system as the US Shop and getting the Forum up again.

US-Shop is up - including new promos

Friday, January 6th, 2012

Hello!

After getting some of the graphics links corrected here (they were hard-coded in the database) I got the US-Shop up. The new short link is www.warlordccg.de/wld/us-shop - I haven’t gotten around to superimposing pretty links yet.

There are two new products up, as well.

First of all is the Phoenix Feather. It can be used in place of a Limited Wish in any deck and works the same way. Yes, you can combine it with Limited Wish, but the sum of both cards can only ever be three.

Phoenix Feather

Another new - or rather enhanced - product is the Warlord Gift Certificate. You buy a $50 gift certificate in the shop - which you can use for any product including the Phoenix Feathers above - and you get the four retooled Warlords Kestrel the Deceiver, Rabinus the Elder, The Bloody Countess, and Warmaster Sceth as a bonus.

Now I am off to get the forum back online.

Blog site is back up

Thursday, January 5th, 2012

Just to let you know: As usual, transferring a whole server holds its own challenges. This site is now on the new server, but required a few… tweeks.

Next up is the US-Shop, then the forum and finally the EU-Shop.

I’ll keep you posted.

Promo Card list updated

Wednesday, November 30th, 2011

Departing from the usual 30-day rule we ruled all the cards contained within the Ordo Phoenicis Ascendentis promo pack as tournament legal on the day they were first available (the first day of KoHIT).

This is now reflected in the latest update in the official promo card list with ca. 15 new entries.

Something Evil Approaches…

Wednesday, November 16th, 2011

Heroes? Pah, don’t they realize that thing called KoHIT is a trap to get them all in one place and annihilate them?

I am going to devour you!

Imperator Gixu at KoHIT

Monday, November 14th, 2011

It is time. While Gigi Corradini unfortunately cannot come to KoHIT, he has sent both his copy of Gixu the Jester as well as Imperator Gixu to me.

And I absolutely agree with his request to have Carlos Alberto Gaedtke play both of them, coming all the way from Brazil to attend KoHIT.

Imperator Gixu will be revealed as soon as one copy of the Jester is defeated, or on Saturday night, whichever comes first. If the Saturday night reveal is not “forced”, it’s Carlos’ choice whether he wants to accept challenges on Saturday or wait till Sunday.

Also in attendance will be Queen-Mother Nyssara and Atu the Fallen.

Rica limited to Nov. 12th

Friday, November 4th, 2011

You all know that for every set (APS 24-26 & AL) pre-ordered you will received a copy of Rica O’Shea:

Rica O’Shea

Please be aware that this offer is limited to (and including) Nov. 12th, 2011.

So if you were still holding out on your order, please make sure to order within the next week in order to get this truly amazing card!
