Hi all, I'd like to show you a card game that I've been working on for quite some time. It's called Obelisk, and it's a strategy game for two players that plays similar to Magic, Yu-Gi-Oh and other card games like Vanguard with some key differences.

The first is the fact that you get a special card called the Obelisk, which each have different Health values and abilities. This is the objective of the game: whoever destroys their opponent's obelisk first wins.

The second is how the board is laid out. Each player has 9 card zones, arranged in a 3x3 grid, with the Obelisk in the center. Placement and movement of creatures is an important factor because it affects how creatures can attack, and many cards utilize this with adjacency bonuses, some target certain rows or columns, and so on.

The third is the resource system. In Obelisk, every card is a resource, taken from the top of your deck at the start of every turn, and put into a place called the reserve. Not only can you play cards from your reserve, but you can also use creatures on the field for resources. Doing so requires you to forfeit their attacks for that turn, however.

Still interested? Great! We can play Obelisk through a program called LackeyCCG, so first download that here: http://lackeyccg.com. Then you'll need the plugin, which you will put in your plugins folder in lackeyccg. You can get that here: (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1OuRJUynIqQenFpTXRHTFIyQ0E) After that you can start playing, look for me (ObeliskDev) on the server list, or message me on skype (therealmyax).

Thanks for reading. I really need playtesters, so I hope some of you will take an interest.

Here are the game's rules, for those who are interested.
