It's so tempting I used to love MTG and I see theres a lot of those nice pre built decks at arkham, what would you guys recommend to purchase first if I did decide to start again?

Like the great mystical warrior of Magic...Jamie lays waste to his foes with impunity;stands proud, symbolically ripping decks to shreds amid cries of woe and wonder. Who will step forth from the shadows to slay this mighty kraken of the cards?

aye, at the mo were not being tight and saying oh no you cant use that here, get along you naughty chappy you!!!, so dig out the cards and see what you can do. weve found that the older cards can hold their own, quite well, but once you get the grip of the newer artifiact equipment cards.......oh my

@ the 2 Garys. I only asked about the xBox as now the caravan park has reopened my ability to get away has been greatly curtailed, realisticly I can expect to be at Arkham once a fortnight. OK your decks are limited but a games a game.

We're not as funny as the Two Ronnies, but entertaining all the same!

I have you added on friends list, so watch out for me online and no reason why xbox live games shouldn't count in ladder.

I have been looking for you online so we can get you those Catan Achievements you want.

(Not that I plan to 'give' them to you.)

Update on my games. 2-1 against Ivor and 2-1 against Andy.
