Hey, if you guys didn't know about this place, Mage Wars has a page on boardgaming.com now. Check out http://boardgaming.com/games/board-games/mage-wars-core-set - basically, this place is like BGG but is more centered around reviews than news. People are able to review games, give the game a score from 1 to 10 which the average is then shown. When they write a review, they can give a star for different aspects of the game. You can even records 'Plays' and 'Likes' and such, with the top 'played' and 'liked' games on average being placed on a side bar and such.

Anyway, its a really terrific site. I suggest looking it over and signing up so that when Mage Wars hit we can place it on the top with some great scores and a great number of likes and played and so forth. If you sign up, say that Numare sent you so that I can get an achievement on the site (the site has an RPG feel of sorts where you can score different achievements to earn gold to spend on avatars and backgrounds and such).

So, I really like the Warlock and his theme and background and such. As such, I was wondering about the Arraxian Crown. They work with the demons that left the realm and such - how long ago did that happen by the time that the game occurs? How did the demons get to the world in the first place? I find this group to have a lot of good story possibility really. Also, is there a reason why the Warlock joined the Crown in the first place?

So, its day 1. You've just cracked open the box, took in the beauty that's inside. Isn't new game smell so great? Anyway, you reach into the box and start to make your very first game - what mage will you be?  I think I would probably chose Warlock. Why? Because, as I am learning the game mechanics and such I think a more straight forward, in your face style would work better than the others. And - fire's pretty darn cool.

What about you guys? Let's put some life in this place!:)
