My unique experience at the STXRR EDGE weekend...

I was set up for Redemption demos in one of the rooms that was situated in the middle of their classroom sessions.



Below, Cmdr Royce A teaches Cmdr Chris M (commander of our RR Eaten by Worms Gang) the new Israel's Deliverance (KL) starters


A couple of Hispanic Royal Rangers Districts are on fire with the game for the first time. One day this District will attempt to translate at least KL SA's into Spanish by sticking labels onto the starter set, just so there's some semblance of a Spanish version to teach the game and play the translated cards unofficially.

I'm booked for some kind of RR Hispanic National Camp on the 1st weekend in November...similar to PowWow. Their No. 1 guy just bought 2 KLs today and will finalize me being at their camp event.  Free lodging, free food, all blessings for the demo team.

Did my annual 'Redemption' speech at the annual South TX EDGE Leadership Conference!!! God is good.
Here's the script:
"Blessings Commanders and guests!
We just celebrated this year the 5th Anniversary of the Redemption card game at the South Texas Royal Rangers PowWow2023. This year we also celebrate the latest starter decks called Israel's Deliverance which are available at our Redemption HQ at Room 206.
For those who are new to the game, Redemption is a Bible-based trading card game where Heroes go into battle to rescue Lost Souls. It's a game of epic earthly and spiritual warfare.
One of our beloved Royal Ranger commanders from Houston, Royce Anagnostou, has invented a unique format for the game that would spend only 10-15 minutes of play and could easily be inserted into weekly Royal Ranger outpost meetings as an ultimate ice-breaker. Expect Commander Royce to create the latest deck versions that will be used at next year's PowWow and beyond.
Please do not leave this EDGE event without acquiring some starter decks for your outpost, and get some as well for your upcoming Christmas stocking stuffers. I and my team are also ready to visit your outposts to teach this exciting game.
On behalf of all commanders and outposts who have since 2018 embraced Redemption as an RR activity, on behalf of Commander Chad Hutson who so lovingly has been featuring Redemption as an official PowWow activity, and on behalf of our beloved Commander Ken Porter who God has ordained as precursor to the birth of Royal Rangers Redemption in South Central and beyond --- I prayerfully urge all Royal Rangers to seriously consider making the game part of their regular activities and ministry, perhaps also as an amazing tool for Royal Rangers to be in symbiosis with their church youth groups."

Thank you Cmdrs Jeff and Lori Stokes for inspiring me to keep on teaching the game to Royal Rangers.  Finally, thank you so much to our beloved District Director Commander Jason Bone for his undying support for Redemption and for embracing the game himself.
And get that unique official family gaming patch on your Royal Rangers shirt by playing Redemption!
See y'all at Room 206!
Thank you all, and Godbless!"

What were the winning bids for each card?

"Same icon" is looking at the card icon, and Cities have the Site icon, so the Site and City would exclude each other. So you can't have them in the same deck.

Nationals is over which means it is time for yours truly to share some of the deck builds I kept secret for the benefit of my play group members using them at Nationals. I have three deck builds I will be sharing with you all over the coming weeks which represent many hours of deck building labor. I built all three of these decks for my play group members and they ran them at Nationals. The first deck build is featured in an article entitled "CtheTree's Take On: Black Widow".
