The Jank Within: Double Issue

12 10 2008

The Jank WithinThis week was a big week for me for VS.

We had our local Clone Saga event on Sunday. I played a modified version of my Black Bolt deck, and 5-0′d. For my troubles I won a Hellboy Essential Collection, the first I have managed to get.

This is relevant, not because I like to big up the Black Bolt. But because it allowed me to teach someone the game.

Random Thoughts by Felix Hughes

3 10 2008

When Steve decided to open up a place for people to write who were too lazy to maintain their own Blogs I was happy to jump at the chance.

Clone Saga and Marvel Ultimates

9 09 2008

Well ladies and gentlemen, it’s been a couple of weeks since my last update. I’ve been sunning myself on a beach for a while, but now I’m back in dreary old England. Back to the grind. Back to the depressing days looking out of the office window and seeing nothing but grey sky.

 

There is, however, a ray of light shining through. UDE have announced a new format for Marquee events, and that is Clone Saga. The rules for this format are simple. Clone Saga is a Silver Age constructed event, with a twist. The uniqueness rules do not apply when recruiting or substituting a character into play. The following is the OP email sent out by UDE
