http://teamcovenant.com/the-definitive-spoils-tutorial/ In this 90 minute tutorial, Zach Bunn and Steven Wooley, both veteran Spoils players, explain everything from "what is a tournament card game" to "how do I resolve a battle" to "what if the rules contradict a card". They approach the game from the ground up, first building a strong foundation consisting of the basic elements of the game and then delving into the more advanced maneuvers and rules.
@endesigner Thanks for the compliments! It is a fantastic game, and one that we still play all the time. There are big things planned for 2012, including the Seed 3 box set which we're very excited about. We're always on Team Covenant, so just post a status update, message, blog, or send us an email and we'll answer any questions you might have!

@damnination333:
You're right, most card games like The Spoils, Magic, etc., all have the "play a card during your opponents turn" feature. And yes, it's nothing new or particularly novel. And though it's hard to fully explain, and I kinda have to cop out and just ask that you take my word on this, is that the extent in which you can do it within The Spoils is vastly greater and more diverse. If you haven't tried the game, give it a go, as a former Magic'er I've not looked back since! :)

This game is looks really interesting and I want to try it out, but I just have to say that these guys make it sound like The Spoils came up with idea of playing cards and abilities on your opponents' turn. You know, as if Magic: the Gathering doesn't have instants and abilities, and if I must, Yu-Gi-Oh doesn't have trap cards. Again, not trashing The Spoils in any way, but playing things on your opponent is pretty standard in just about ANY trading card. Except for Pokemon XD
