I picked up a couple boxes of Jyhad when it first went to VTES. I was in the Army bounceing from place to place. I lost them in one of my many moves. I have since started getting an interest in the game again but only have a 3rd edition starter box. Being an Ex Magic player I know that there has to be a few peopl who have a crazy amount of excess cards laying around that would be great to get a noob started in the game again. Anyone willing to donate some of their excess to a former player? Send me a message if so and I will arrange shipping. Thanks for your time.

There is no one around here who plays. I'm located in Vincennes, IN where I use to be the Prince here but since there was no interest I have a zero player base to mooch off of.

The only real play time I have had has been year ago with other soldiers.

I found a box of Jyhad on Amazon. I see some Jyhad on ebay at times aswell. I ordered the Amazon one for $50 total so I guess I will have a few to play with my kids. Don't want to invest to heavily till I can spark an interest. I was in the same position with The Spoils was doing open beta. I was giving out truck loads of product to try and generate interest but it fizzled due to the interest in Magic. *They are all teenagers so its not like I'm bashing some 7 year olds in a card game,lol.

Now I am curious. Is that the Black Lotus of Vampire? I wounder how many I had before I lost my previous collection.

Just look them up on Ebay. They weren't printed many times and are a card you want in multiples in most prince/justicar decks. Be careful when you fight the monsters, lest you become one. -Friedrich Nietzsche brandonsantacruz.blogspot.com/

Well, PS was printed in Jyhad, Vampire and Camarilla Edition and in all of those as an uncommon. But since V and CE have been sold out quite long ago Jyhad is the only one still floating around in reasonable numbers. Since people aren't buying it like hot cakes to get PS (I think biggest reason to get Jyhad) I'd say it inät that wanted a card. But if you have extras I'm sure you wonät have any problems converting them into other cards... EDIT: Certainly not comperable to Black Lotus! Finnish Politics!

I opened the box after breifly debateing on keeping it sealed. I indeed did pickup a PS. Also a missprinted Vintrue Justicar, which has text for a Tremere in its instruction box. Also picked up an Ivory Bow, Feeding Razor and a Tolbots Chainsaw, all of which I never jad before in my old collection. Not a bad haul all in all.

Lönkka

Just one PS? Since it is an uncommon I would've wagered you'd get 2-3 per display. Oh well... Finnish Politics!

Parity shift was "V" in jyhad, if I recall correctly ( printed on the vampire sheets) -- salem

Hey, I'm around. Feel free to hit me up and coordinate how we can all play together. We currently play on Tuesday nights every week.
