Greetings all,
        Just played two games of Mage Wars last night and I have to say the games were great fun.  We played through the walk through to get a feel for the game and then played an apprentice battle between a warlock and wizard. I really enjoyed playing the warlock and became more comfortable with the game concepts and flow of play as the game moved along. Some early mistakes were made in rule interpretation, but were corrected easily enough.
        My opponent (Eulrick) and I end up depleting our spell books and had mage brawl at the end. His wizard still had the gorgon in the game and that proved to be fatal for me. There was no discernible winner until the final round and it was one of the games I have had the most fun losing.  I know we are looking forward to another game night soon.  The forums have been a great help today as I have browsed various subjects to get a better grasp of some gaming concepts and rule clarifications.
