From MWiki

The 4E Learn-to-Play Set was printed in both English and German, with the German language version only being available in Europe.

[edit] Initial Announcement

The following was posted on WarlordCCG.com on March 6, 2009:

PHOENIX Interactive announces Warlord Learn-to-Play Set

Scheduled for April PHOENIX Interactive publishes a Learn-to-Play Set for Warlord 4th Edition containing two introductory 50-card decks, quick-start-rules, and a 20-sided dice at an entry-level price point.

“After the successful re-launch last summer and the first expansion in November we have been getting rave reviews about Warlord 4th Edition”, says PHOENIX Interactive owner and Warlord-fan Arne Reuter. “The one thing our players criticized was that in the current packaging theme the Adventure Path Sets - by including 20 rare cards - pack a lot more punch than starters ever did, but new players could not know that and would therefore not enter the game easily.”

This is addressed now. The Warlord 4E Learn-to-Play Set contains two balanced 50-card decks and a set of quick-start rules that players can use to pick up the game swiftly. Apart from the new Warlords there are six entirely new unique cards, as well as several reprints that have not been part of Warlord 4E before. Veteran players will be happy to learn that all new cards apart from the Warlords are contained in the Learn-to-Play set twice.

The MSRP for the Learn-to-Play set is set competitively at 14.95 EUR or $19.99 and comes complete with an original CHESSEX Gemini 20-sided dice. It will be available world-wide in mid April 2009.

PHOENIX Interactive GmbH is a privately owned company, based in Muenster, Germany. Taking over the license from Alderac Entertainment Group (Ontario, CA) in January 2008 it is responsible for the successful relaunch of Warlord 4th Edition, the “game you already know how to play”.

Warlord auf Deutsch

Some of you may have wondered why I wasn’t posting all the much. Easy really: No time and deadlines looming. From April 3rd to 5th the Role-Play Convention takes place for the third time (this time, unfortunately, in Cologne). The big thing about this is, that the organizer has a very unique view on what “Fantasy Role-Play” is.

Instead of having the same old, same old black-T-shirted long-haired guys, smelling … interestingly on the last day of a Con, this convention dumps computer FRPG players (those MMORG players), LARPers, card pushers and “real” RPGers in one convention. This mix works great, because there you actually can find people who never knew that you could have a hobby away from a keyboard ;-).

What makes more sense than to bring out the L2P set for it? Not much. Except, this time we’ll have the Learn-to-Play set in two languages! Yes, for the first time there’ll be an entire product in a different language. Err, yes, German, of course. The box is the same, but the German version will have a sticker on it.

You are saying to you can’t imagine seeing German language cards? Well, it took me a while, too, but now I really like them. Here are a few examples:

• Yvaalis
• Knochenschnitter
• Schwatzender Tausendmund
• Rasen des Stiers
• Stulpen des Schabernacks
• Wolkenstürmer
