There's a celebration going on across Geekdom at the announcment that our very own Action Flick Chick has just been named G4tv's new Woman of the Web. This is an awesome win for her, and W.A.G.O.N. couldn't be more proud to include her amoung our ranks. Congratulations Katrina, you indeniably deserve your crown! Check out this snippet from the broadcast:

In other news, to help celebrate our continued expansion into all things Geek, we of W.A.G.O.N. have joined a special donation drive to help give something back. From Perihelion to Pi Day. (That's January 3rd through March 14th, for any non-geeks in the crowd) we will be giving a portion of all profits that we make to Engineers Without Borders International, an organization to help people get the shelter, clean water, and other essentials they need. This includes all purchased of our current Delta Deck Pre-sale as well. So please, if you've ever thought of getting on the WAGON, this will be a fantastic time to do it!

The Delta Deck Pre-sale has begun! While we're working out the final tweeks in the cards to come in this deck, we're ready to start collecting orders for a new round of explosive action. The final call for duty in this deck brings some fantastic newcomers to the battle as well as a few veterans who are returning to the front lines:

• Blue Sky
• Union of Heroes
• Zortic
• Cy-Boar
• Autumn Lake
• and the return of Sarah Zero and The Best of What's Left

Members of W.A.G.O.N. come in all forms and from all walks of life, and to prove it we're going to show off one of our newest compatriots know as the Action Flick Chick. This girl is the Beauty and the Geek wrapped up in one explosive package, ready to take on all challenges that come her way. A sentiment that has been translated into WAGON card form.

The Action Flick Chick, aka Katrina Hill, runs actionflickchick.com where she specializes in reviewing the most hardcore action movies that she can find. She has also been known to rampage across conventions, interview some of the gods of geekdom, spank some no0bs in some multiplayer action, and most recently is awaiting to see if she has won G4tv's Woman of the Web contest in which she PWND most of the competition.

All this and more makes the Action Flick Chick a welcome addition to the battlefield, and we're happy to have her. Be sure to check out the action over on actionflickchick.com and look out for an opportunity to snag one of these cards for yourself in the near future!

As we start the final wrap up on our Delta Deck, we thought since it's the holidays we'd offer everyone a chance to get their collections caught up before the new decks arrive. To that end, we're offering a Special Holiday Deal! Yes, you can snag everything you need to get your game on in one simple package for a little last minute shopping. So then, if you've wanted to get on the WAGON, this would be your perfect opportunity!

The Delta Deck is barreling along in it's development, making it look like we're going to be able to launch the Pre-Sale in time for the holiday season! The final line-up looks like it's going to be a solid showing:

• Blue Sky
• Union of Heroes
• Zortic
• Cy-Boar
• Autumn Lake
• and the return of Sarah Zero and The Best of What's Left
