Play a casual group game, with no need to make a deck! In the exciting "Arda" format, players draw from "shared decks" and uniquely customize their companies and strategies as the game progresses.
Description:
>How long has it been since you’ve played Iron Crown Enterpises’ iconic collectible card game from 1995, set in Tolkien’s Middle-earth universe?
>In the exciting multiplayer “Arda” format, there is no need to make a deck. Instead, players draw from “shared decks” and uniquely customize their companies and strategies as the game progresses.
>Journey back to the most strategic collectible card game ever made.
>The rules will not be taught, so you should have experience playing the game before. However, the environment will be casual enough so even if you are very rusty, players will happily help you! We will also have at least one ARDA game with absolutely no virtual cards (except the Wizards). (We also have another event called “Middle-earth CCG by ICE - Learn to Play” if you need a rules refresher first, or are a brand-new player!)
For this casual event, we’ll provide you with one of the official MECCG preconstructed decks, which are well-designed and quite fun! Be at least loosely familiar with the rules.

Has it been a while since you've played this amazing collectible card game from Decipher, made in 1995? Join us for a very casual tournament where you draft from a carefully selected pool of 480 cards. "Cube" captures the sealed deck experience, but with better combos and strategic gameplay. No deck needed. This time we will also have a few slots for players wishing to play a "No Virtual Cards" cube, so if you prefer to play that way, email the organizer after you register. The rules will not be taught, so you should have experience playing the game before. However, the environment will be casual enough that if you are a little rusty, players will happily help you! (We also have another event called "Star Wars CCG by Decipher - Learn to Play" if you need a rules refresher first, or are a brand-new player!)
