'''Keyforge''' is a unique deck game published by [[Fantasy Flight Games]] and [[Magic the gathering|MTG]] legend [[Richard Garfield]] in 2018. The game's main gimmick is it's unique distribution model which, unlike 99% of other collectible card games, comes in neither booster packs, nor expansions like a living card game, but rather decks. No, not starter decks, just regular [[Wat|decks]]. Yeah, it's weird.

== Setting ==

Keyforge is set upon a Hodge-podge mix of concepts and species known as the Crucible. The Crucible is an ancient planet in the center of the universe, consisting of several layers. Each layer is made of races and terrain pulled from various different parts of the universe collected by the Architects, a group of enigmatic and mischievous beings. Sometimes only a few individuals are brought to the crucible, while sometimes entire cultures are picked up and transplanted by these yahoos. 

Society in the Crucible runs on a strange substance called [[Warpstone|æmber]], a strange psychic substance that powers most tech in the Crucible barring a few groups. Due to the limited amounts of the substance, the various groups of the fight over it, as is typicall when there's limited supplies of anything. 

In addition to the various races of the Crucible, there also exists the Archons, a bunch of ghost-god things that look however the hell they want, do whatever the hell they want, and want to get in the vaults hidden across the crucible for some unknown reason. Luckily for them, most of the races across the crucible are happy to help them get inside these vaults, both because many revere or respect the Archon, but more importantly because the vaults are full of æmber and rare technologies. (which for some reason the Archon's don't want. Go figure.)Usually these companions tend to have something in common with the Archons they travel with. For example, A particularly [[Khorne|warlike Archon]] may attract those who wish defend their homeland, like to duel and get stronger, or simply are looking for a good scrap. If two Archons are going after the same vault, the two Archons agree to a duel where they and their companions will race to complete three æmber keys to open the vault. In these races the companions are allowed to [[Blood Bowl|fight, steal, chant and kill each other]] in order to complete these keys before the other group. It's all in good fun though, because if anyone is particularly hurt or even killed, after the contest the Archon will heal or revive their companions, as per the rules of the duel.


== Resources and links ==

https://www.keyforgegame.com/ 

The Keyforge Master Vault, and official website that is a database of every keyforge deck registered to the site. In addition, for every deck you regester, you gain æmbershards, which can be used to forge keys, both of which are able to be [[Awesome|turned in for goodies]] at keyforge events both at your [[Local Game Store]] or officially sanctioned events.

https://thecrucible.online/ 

The Crucible Online, an unofficial Keyforge online service that allows you to import decks from the Keyforge Master Vault Website. There's no restrictions to this however, so if you see a cool deck you want to try, it's not hard to just copy the link and enter it in. It can also randomly generate a deck for you as well.

https://decksofkeyforge.com/

Decks of Keyforge is the primary website used to rate the power levels of decks in the current metagame. Similar to the Crucible Online, you can import decks to get an idea of their power level, however, they will add decks that are on the Master Vault within a day or so if they are not manual added. While not definitive, and a decent player can pilot even a crappy deck to victory, it's good starting point to tell how much of a pain it's going to be to do that.

Under construction, but feel free to 1d4chan it up if you like. I'm new to this. [[User:Srlojohn|Srlojohn&#123;That Anne McCaffery Guy&#125;]] ([[User talk:Srlojohn|talk]]) 18:23, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
