Title: Thinking about getting back into the game... or at least collecting!
Post by: Gil Galad Elven King *Generic on March 21, 2018, 05:53:11 PM
Hey guys, it feels like I haven't been on this forum in years... oh wait... I haven't!

Anyway, I've been having the itch to get back into at least collecting some of the newer cards, and maybe even trying to get back into playing some if I can find others in my area. I've really gotten into Pokemon TCG lately, and it's been fun, but it's brought back a lot of the fun and excitement that I experienced when I was collecting and playing Redemption.

Also, since I'm trying to do the Youtube thing now, I want to start doing things to feature Redemption on my channel as well. It's been mostly Pokemon for a while now, but I just ordered a few packs earlier that I'm hoping to do a video on as soon as they get in!

So yea, hopefully I can jump back in this community now, and if there happens to be anyone left that remembers me, I'll just say... Good to see you guys again!

I found lackey to be a great way to get back into playing when I picked up the game again in late 2014 :-) :-) best wishes,

Yeah, Lackey is a great way to get back into the game if you have no idea what to get.
What's your youtube channel btw?

Welcome back!  :)

If you're interested in reading about what's been happening the past few years, there's a ton of great articles on LandofRedemption.com (http://LandofRedemption.com)

Welcome back! Yes, the game has really been growing and the new cards from the last few sets have been very exciting! Also, a new set, The Fall of Man, was just announced and the previews are being released- it's a great time to get back in the game! :)

Hey, Kids!  Once upon a time this guy did the best Redemption podcast ever. Interviewing Rob Anderson and getting the hot scoops on the soon to be released Priests expansion.

Thanks EmJayBee83... those sure were fun to make!

My YouTube channel is https://www.youtube.com/philsnextkick and maybe I can start doing some Redemption stuff on there like I used to do. I know I definitely want to do some pack openings!

I've actually read a little on Land of Redemption after Rob shared the Fall of Man announcement on Facebook the other day. Those alternate borders on those cards look absolutely Fantastic... and I never thought I would see Redemption cards selling for over $100!

I do still have a very small bit of cards, and I bought the original A/B decks for my collection a few months ago, but I'm really excited about the few packs I ordered today! Can't wait until they get here!

Welcome back!  Everyone else has offered you plenty of information as far as where to find the latest and greatest info.  They have spoiled 8 or so cards of the Fall of Man set so far, so still over 140 cards yet to be seen!  As far as you collecting, there are many spreadsheets with card information, but I've got one on excel and google docs as well as a "check list" of sorts that you are welcome to.  I also have a ton of cards that I would be willing to part with for a good price if you want to try to get most of the cards at one time, or from one place.

Here is my most up to date folder:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iu01r8_kn3V5NV4FbHnRXSN4ydBVlP6n/view?usp=drivesdk (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iu01r8_kn3V5NV4FbHnRXSN4ydBVlP6n/view?usp=drivesdk)

This is full of t1 and t2 deck lists!

You can open the zip and click the lackey application which should load an updated version of the Redemption plug in by default.

Also be sure to check out the one sheet in my signature! I made it thinking about what would help players like me most when I came back to the game :-)
