Cactus Game Design Message Boards

I dont remember an exact date or anything Bryon would remember better then me But not long after Bryon started playing Redemption he showed a bunch of us at church and we got hooked. This was sometime around 1998 or 1999 dont remember when exactly but I do remember playing before Warriors came out or at least before we knew that set existed lol So yeah been playing ever since and what a ride its been watching the game develop over the years! There is still nothing like the thrill of opening up a pack and getting a 10/10 Red Dragon!

In February of 2008 I was laid off and looking for a job. During that time I was researching alternate art for MTG and stumbled on some art that was on a Redemption card. (I want to say it was A New Creation but I don't remember off hand) I used to play just about any card, board, dice game I could try so I started some research. I looked on eBay for cards and then soon found the message boards. I posted somewhere on here and got a few responses from soul seeker, Gabe and a few others. All with a very kind attitude. (Very different from MTG crowds) I won an auction on eBay which was huge. I think I paid $47 for the lot. I soon found a full set of woman's, warriors, and a partial set missing just a couple ultra rares of kings and a lot of limited/unlimited. I went to the local Christian store and found E/F deck, G/H 10th Anniversary tin and some packs (prophets, priests, and almost a full box of woman's packs) I paid a $1 a pack for prophets and $2 a pack for the priests and woman's. Thanks to Gabe for all the emails of positive reinforcement and deck building tips. He also helped me get all the staple lost souls and dominants and some other cards to help boost my G deck to start with. I could go on but that's my story...for now.

I was playing pokemon at the time but my mom heard about a christian card game like it so I swapped it and I first played when I was just starting the first grade (2006) at that time the new starter came out with new jerusalem and I have never played without it. So from then on I joined the Sedalia play group. (Fun fact- the first redemption game I played someone played wrath of satan.)
