Rules Announcements / Re: Tournament Format Changes (T1, T2, Teams) - UPDATE 8-13-26 - Now In Effect
« Last post by RedemptionAggie on Today at 12:22:32 AM »
The updated Deck Building Rules implementing these changes is now available on Cactus' downloads page. There are also updates to some of the Tournament documents available there, described here.

The document also includes updates to the Teams Rules, mentioned but not described above, to make the category more accessible and make the format feel more like a partnership for the teammates:
- Teammates will sit next to one another.
- Teammates will take one shared turn.
- Shared areas and card types will add the following: Sites, Artifacts and Artifact pile. This limits a team to one Artifact activation on the Artifact pile for their shared turn.
- Teams decks are not limited to 1 copy of a Dominant per team, however a team may only collectively play 1 copy per game. Those copies will be tracked in the team's Land of Redemption.
- Teams will have one shared battle phase. While only one player can attack/block, either player may play an Enhancement on their team's character in battle when the team has initiative.
- All Lost Souls will be played as meek. Players are not required to swap out SA souls to play.

It also includes the ban lists for each category on the last page. These are the CHANGES (not the full list) from the previous single ban list:

T1-Limited
- Ephesian Widow is no longer banned
- Imitate LS is BANNED

T2-Limited
- Ephesian Widow is no longer banned
- Imitate LS is BANNED
- Harvest Time is BANNED

T1-Teams Limited
- Ephesian Widow is no longer banned
- Burial (GoC) is BANNED
- High Places (GoC) is BANNED

T1-Unlimited
- Daniel (CoW) is the only BANNED card
- Ephesian Widow, Lost Souls (2-line and 3-line), Mourn and Weep, Samuel (RoA) and The Foretelling Angel (PC) are no longer banned. The original Endless Treasures (with the draw ability) is no longer banned, but it plays as the errata version.

READY!!! and PLANTING SEEDS!!!





SIGNS & DISPLAYS:







The 4 MOST IMPORTANT RR figures in my Redemption life...finally got a pic of them together less one (Cmdr Chad Hutson)...

[Left - Cmdr Ken Porter (Redemption gamer) - started it all for South TX and SCentral Royal Ranger Redemption; Middle - Cmdr Jason Bone (Redemption gamer) - STX RR big boss - embraced d game as a regular activity for his outposts and district); Right - Cmdr Jeff Stokes (STX TR training boss) - together w his wife Cmdr Lori have been throughout d years ensuring d game is promoted at a couple of RR major activities - PowWow, Pinewood Derby, and EDGE).]


Not in the pic group - Cmdr Chad Hutson (Redemption gamer - PowWow coordinator) embraced Redemption as a regular annual major camp activity since 2019.

Left to right:
1. Chad Hutson - the reason why Redemption celebrates many years at the annual STX camp 'PowWow'
2. John Squires - future NTX District Commander - the reason for the future unification of South & North TX Royal Ranger Redemption.
3. Jason Bone - the reason why Redemption LIVES in South TX.

My great friends (husband & wife - Cmdr Steve Whatley & his wife Cmdr Mary)...6 years after learning the game at an actual CREDITED Redemption class.



The GREAT Ken Porter -- the reason why Redemption seeds began a harvest in South Texas and South Central...


The amazing Jeff & Lori Stokes - the reason why Redemption HARVEST keeps going...


Cmdr Brian Horne - a reason why Redemption seeds started sprouting in STX 8 yrs ago (now 21).


CmdrnRey & his wife Daisy Ortiz - the reason why San Antonio TX will soon have a regular church & school venue (once again), for Redemption, as we await our Redemption newly-weds and new dads/moms, to come back after hiatus in a bit ....


Cmdrs Pete & Britney Sladcik, Cmdr David Thetford - the reason why it all began for Redemption in San Antonio TX after Ken Porter plants the seeds.


Cmdr Chris Moses - the reason why the 'Eeaten By Worms Gang' was born...


Harrison Gregory - the reason why the  South TX RR big boss learned the game and became a Redemption gamer more than 5 yrs ago.
