Kards Podcast

Welcome to a quick 25th episode of the Kards Podcast! This week - we are saying thank you and adieu to #KARDS. Thank you for the ride.

Welcome to a quick 24th episode of the Kards Podcast! This week - Scout, Cybernetic and I hold a 2-hour State of Kards Extravaganza. If you are more into the video side of things check out Scout's Twitch version.

Welcome to a quick 23rd episode of the Kards Podcast! This week - A quick reaction to the latest development update for KARDS and something to keep in mind - We don’t have access to the data of Kards and we can’t see how these slight tweaks affect the greater environment.

This week - Despite a little bit of an audio issue (my bad!), we are diving into draft in three parts - general impressions, during the draft, and during the games. Then there are a couple of thoughts about individual factions too. Interact, Support the Show Our Patreon Page kardspodcast@gmail.com Twitter @KARDSPodcast Discord channel

This week - With draft mode coming soon, I wanted to pass along 2 card game theories from Marshall Sutcliffe's Limited Resources modified for KARDS - Quadrant Theory and Cards that Affect the Battlefield. Much more is available at kardspodcast.com.

Welcome to the 20th episode of the Kards Podcast! This week - the final entry of the epic five-part engagement going over all of the cards in the base set of Kards. We finish up with all of the Japanese cards in the game. For a quick overview of the Japanese: The Japanese are a faction of extremes. It plays very aggressive with blitz units and destruction abilities that go after the HQ. Or it can play a very control heavy game with some very good guard units and solid point removal orders.

This week - the fourth entry of the epic five-part engagement going over all of cards in the base set of Kards. We are up to talking through all of the American cards in the game. For a quick overview of the Americans: The USA is an outstanding supporting faction and can pair with any of the other factions very well. On its own though, the USA is great at ramping up the kredits and then dropping high impact plane, after plane, after plane.

This week we will talk about all the cards for the glorious Soviet Union, da? This is the third entry of the epic five-part engagement going over all of cards in the base set of Kards. For a quick overview of the Soviets: The Red Army can play very aggressive to mid-range with very good low rarity damage-based removal, infantry (or infantry orders) and tanks. However, they can struggle over the long term since they lack a lot of card draw and big planes. There are also some cool strategies with tokens and artillery.

This week we are releasing the podcast a day early since it is a long weekend! It is also the second step of the epic five-part engagement going over all of cards in the base set of Kards. This time we are up to the British. For a quick overview of the British: It is the most controlling faction, excels at interacting with the opponent, has good units, but there are fewer of those units and it is the slowest faction out of the gate.

The first piece of an epic five-part engagement going over all of cards in the base set of Kards. We are starting with the Germans. There are two rules for the overviews: Going in alphabetical order so Standards, Limited, Specials and Elites all mixed together and 60 seconds per card (listen for the Gong).

This week - we are talking about some of the updates to cards, new cards in the game, and the base set overall. Yes, there will be some math, again! However, we showed our work on our homework below and you can use this information as you see fit.

This week - we are checking in with 1939 Games developer Keli (AKA TealKeli on the Discord) on a variety of topics with Season 1 coming to an end and gold cards showing up. Here are the major areas that Keli and I talk about: How did 1939 Games think the Season 1 went? There have been some concerns raised about the matchmaking system, will there be Updates to matchmaking in the future? What has been the growth in the player base since Early Access went live? What were some of the challenges that the team saw in the first season? Were there any surprises in the first season? What were the most played factions in season 1? What were the most played cards in season 1? New Gold Cards, What impact do you expect them to have?

Scout joins the podcast to discuss our recommendations on the best crafting targets for new players getting into Kards. Flexibility is paramount with these. All of these can go in multiple decks plus, many of these are good to help slam the door on an opponent when you are ahead or these can help you catch up when you fall behind. Most of them affect the battlefield they come in to play or are played. The full gallery of these (mostly Standard and Limited, but some Specials too) is on the website.

Welcome to the eighth episode of the Kards Podcast! This week - We are talking to the creator of 1939 Games and Kards itself, Gummi (aka Mundi Panzer on Discord) at the 2019 Game Designer's Conference in San Fransisco. We are also lucky enough to be starting a giveaway!
