Rage CCG- the werewolves will be back for 2010
I figured I should start a new thread since the old Rage thread has the warning on it telling you it's been dug up from last year. 
I prefer my threads not be labeled as archaeological digs, even if it matches the theme this year.
I'll be back again in 2010 to run Rage. If you can't wait six whole months to play with werewolves, you can play online using Lackey. Instructions for installing Lackey here:
http://www.rainydaypaperback.com/home/rage/playonline.html
There's a regular Friday night game where you can learn to play.
Or you can download a free starter off the main Rage website here:

I played old-school Rage. I have Lord Albrecht and everything. Haven't played since middle school though.
There's an online game every Friday night on Lackey if you wish to brush up your skills before AC itself.
What is this "Lackey" you speak of? 
Lackey is an online player that lets you play via a virtual table.
Here's the directions for downloading and installing Lackey:

Works on PC AND Mac.
There's also a play by post game currently on the rage forum so you can play that way:

(or if you get an account on the rage forum, you can play in the PLAYTEST play by post game. it's just not visible to non-members, thus why I'm not posting a direct link)
New Hellcats set available for playtesting on Lackey!
The next set has been released for Beta testing online. Just download Lackey (or update the plugin) to try out the new set. Lions, and leopards, and hyenas, oh my!
Hellcats? As in, what remains of the Ceilican? OOOOOHHH!
well i do have to say I will deffiantly try and join still have a tone of the rage cards I picked up from Furfright this year 
Yes indeedy, the remains of the Hellcats, plus some Wyrm-y Simba thrown in for good measure. (as Caelican turned into Hellcats and suddenly apparently were European lions, they had to get the lions somewhere. Black Tooth and his pride also left a big mess too)
Sample cards:
Maria Caliper
Hellcat, Homid, Bastet, Defiler
Renown 9
Rage 3/7
Gnosis 10/7
Health 3/8
Homid form text: Maria has multiple, conflicting personalities. Maria has 2 extra votes on Board Meetings and may use Glass Walker gifts. Rivalry: Pentex.
Crinos: Maria has multiple, conflicting personalities. Maria may use Black Spiral Dancer and Beast-of-War gifts. Loyalty: Pentex. She may not join pack actions.
The Darkness
Hellcat, Feline, Bastet, Beast-of-War
Renown 10
Rage 5/10
Gnosis 7
Health 4/9
The Darkness has infuriated the Simba by claiming to be the reincarnation of one of their greatest heroes. He may use any card requiring Simba. All Simba gain Rivalry: The Darkness while he is in play.
Court of the Hyena King
caern
The site where the Wyrm tainted Simba Black Tooth slaughtered hundreds of Ajaba has become a caern dedicated to betrayal. Target an Ally, turn it into an Enemy or Victim (your choice) and place it in the Hunting Grounds (this will remove the target from combat). Discard this caern when you use this ability.
Ghouled Bubasti Kinfolk
All: requires Hellcat, Vampire, Bubasti
Renown 7
Rage 5
Gnosis 4
Health 6
(Regenerates.) Animal. Kinfolk. The Followers of Set enslaved all the Bubasti's feline kinfolk thousands of years ago and have kept them alive since then with foul magics. Ghouled Bubasti Kinfolk can play two combat actions a round if both are Rage 2 or less. It may use Bubasti and Feline gifts. Loyalty: Vampires
Elephant Graveyard
Territory
Requires, Ajaba, Hellcat
Unique. Elephants can supposedly sense when they will die and are mystically drawn to the elephant graveyard. Once per turn, you may target a non-Spirit Ally in any discard pile. You may bring it into play as an Ally. It loses its old creature type and is now a Wraith that exists only in the Umbra.
Skull of Adjua Ka
Bane Fetish Gnosis 6
Unique. The vengeful spirit of the slain Hyena King is trapped in this Bane Fetish. In the Moot phase you may use it to give all creatures not in the same pack a Rivalry to this creature until the end of turn. You may not use this Bane Fetish in two consecutive turns.
Plus LOTS MORE. Come, try them out and see all the other Hellcats.

hmm. it oocurs to me that i may have posted in the wrong section. sorry if i did x.x
