    Warlord: Saga of the Storm, a staple of the CCGs released by Alderac Entertainment Group (alongside Legend of the Five Rings, Seventh Sea, and Doomtown) officially ran from 2001 to 2008; but that's only the beginning of the story. Woodrow Hood and Joshua King, massive Warlord fans for over two decades, are now relaunching this beloved card game through their new studio: Kingswood Games.

      I never got a chance to play in back in the day and L5R dominated our shop but from what I remember a small group of folks said is was actually a better game and wished everyone would switch over to it.

    This game was a big part of my life. I was gutted when it was discontinued. The scene around me quickly dried up. So subsequently I sold off my collection…. Biggest gaming regret of my life. I am so on board for this iteration….. no question!!!!! This game is so so good 😊

    for years my collection is saved in my cellar. Happy to c this revived. i loved the dice mechanic. In magic the most expensive deck always won. I entered a trounament and won with a starter dek because of my dice rolls. It was so cool that casual players would have a chance at competitive games as well.

    I worked at a game store in the early 2000s that sold some warlord. It was probably my favorite card game to play although we never ran any tournaments and it never saw much sales in our area. A coworker and I would split the packs based on faction so I only really had elves and dwarves. I still have my couple of decks kicking around.

But Covenant team, as much as I love seeing Zach & Steven sit across the table and play almost anything, the quality of this piece is exhibiting the growing mastery of both the artistry and the technical expertise of quality content you guys are gaining. Proud for both Kingswood and TC.

    I have soo many fond memories of this game. My best was Origins 2003 when a friend of mine and myself came in 2nd at the team championship. He was playing a dragon based merc deck and I was playing Astral deck (Quel'Sarr I think was the Warlords name). That same Origins I nabbed a Dragon Lord and I think I still have it unsigned somewhere. I remember spending the entire 4 days of the con in the card hall, only leaving for food and sleep (very little I might add lol). I'm very excited for this game to come back out. I would tell people when I was playing MTG heavily about what got me into playing CCG/TCG's was Warlord.

      @@OrdemDoGraveto Yeah Legend of the Five Rings, Legend of the Burning Sands, and 7th Sea, all had almost the exact same CCG system with little changes between them. Warlord came after too. Kind of the problem AEG created was 4 really good CCGs during a time when there were DOZENS of CCGs going. People can't commit that much time and money into the market for that many collectables. Legend of the Five Rings just died a few years ago as a LCG under Fantasy Flight Games but both Legend of the Five Rings and 7th Sea live on as RPGs.
