Hi! I am new to this forum and new to Highlander CCG, but not new to the franchise, universe, or world of Highlander. I was wondering if there are people still playing Highlander CCG, how many (if anyone knows) and where is the majority of players located? I am interested in finding ANYONE ANYWHERE to play this game with, even if it is through Skype or Zoom or anything. I have been building a deck and have been able to acquire an official rule book. I’m pretty sure the cards I have currently are a mix of 1st Edition and 2nd Edition. I have enough cards that I could get a couple people started in my area and that is my intention after I know the game well enough to answer any questions that new players might have, maybe if things go well I would be willing to travel to take part in tournaments (even if I have to fly, and even if they are only a small group of players it’s better than having no one). Anyways, I hope someone reads this and gets back to me, thanks! And remember THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE

Have some in TN but mostly type 1 - I am always game if we have a gathering Awesome! That’s good news that you have a group going. What should I do if I don’t have anyone to play? I mean I’m building my deck and trying to acquire more cards, I just bought A LOT of boxes of new old stock, and I want to get good enough at the game that I can eventually put on a demo and try to get some players, but I’ll need to know the rules inside and out, and the only way to do that is to play with someone who knows the game extremely well. I’m kind of at a loss considering I’ve never met anyone in Houston that plays. Any advice? |

well, i just want to say "Welcome to the game!" Houston, don't even recall back in the day if this game made it to Houston? hah. Hey thanks! Yeah when I found this game I was kinda feeling like “Houston, we have a problem” because I was coming up empty on finding anyone that played. Luckily I was able to dig around on the internet and I found the Forum 🙏🏻 I wish there were more people active on here, but I guess I’m late to the party (by a couple years 😂) this is truly a great game and I feel it deserves more attention. Do you have a group that you play with in your area? Anyways, thanks for reaching out! I’ll be on the forum regularly, I’m usually on here everyday looking at rules or questions that have already been asked lol so feel free to hit me up! -Luke |

i guess, you should distinguish between Type1 versus Type2/3 (3 is type 2 but even clearer on the rules) and deck building requires the gem counts to be considered.
Type1 is gems don't play. max 6 of any card, unless further restricted on the card itself.
Your purchases should be mainly Type1 cards only. Type1 cards won't have gems on them for the most part. Some Type2 cards can be
used in Type1 (just ignore the gems).
Your Quickenings are different too. (but you probably wont have these and wont be using them)
Type1 has plenty of errata. You can ask in the Rules section, someone will answer.
Hope this gets you started.
Yeah, you a li'l over 2 decades late, but you know what they say ... better late than never!

I am looking at a trip down to Houston to help and brings some type 1 cards. I will bring type 2 but that is not remotely fair for those that don’t have access. Will post date when we have it

Will post date when we have it Okay awesome! It is just me for now. I was just recently able to play my first game last Friday over Zoom. Once I know the game well enough to put on a demo I will be ready for you to come, I’ve already called and talked to quite a few game rooms here where people play CCGs like Magic etc.. and they said it’s okay to do the demo. I just want to learn the game so I can answer any questions people have at the demo, because when you leave to head back home it will just be me directing everything and helping everyone I also sent you a PM with my contact info |

Yeah I want to play. Im in NC though. We got a good group of dedicated Magic players that do like other games too. Im working on building some slight interest so far in a league or at least a group of players.
