  • Howdy, fellow adventurers! Dave Bone here, and today I want to point out a opportunity we’re missing out on.  It’s something I’ve spoken about on Game Day but haven’t actually put it into writing.  It’s kinda a no-brainer, but just in case you were wondering, the Wargate supports open dueling...

  • Wow, it’s been an onerous off-season for Magic: The Gathering here at the Wargate! These things come and go in spurts, but Magic has long been a seasonal festivity in these parts.  It’s been almost 7 months since our last big go at the seminal CCG, and we’re breaking that hiatus with...
