I'm not a regular player but I really like Mage Wars and would love to play it more. I'm part of Western PA Gaming we meet at Settler's Ridge Market District on Fridays and Kings in Canonsburg the first Friday of each month. If you'd like to play some Mage Wars let me know!

I have another question from a new player, what happens if a Mage has a damage barrier as well as something like Spiked Buckler.  What would be the result if that Mage was attacked? Would both the damage barrier and the Spiked Buckler trigger from the attack?

Hi, I am a gamer from Southwestern PA, about an hour south of Pittsburgh.  However I work close to Pittsburgh and regularly game in the area.  I am wondering if there are any other Mage Wars players in the area.  I am a beginner and have only played a few times, but I would love to start something up that is semi-regular.  I usually game on Fridays and sometimes Saturdays, so if there are any other players in the area post here or PM me on BGG my username is Parliament there as well.  I would be open to doing starting spell books and providing materials for other beginners or doing constructed spell books with other players who also have invested in the game.

Since there seems to be a good number of people that want to play maybe we can pick a time and a hall with some space and try to set up a place where Mage Wars players can go to play during the convention.  In previous conventions I have found there to be a good amount of space in the TCG Halls.  I'm not that good at coordinating things but I'm sure as a group we can figure it out!  I'll be in Indianapolis on Wed night but probably won't be at the convention center until Thursday morning.
