This is the first deluxe product in my SW/LotR Cross Project.
In case you haven’t noticed yet, I am working on a full card game for the Lord of the Rings game engine, using material and themes from Star Wars.
The original base set, Legacy of the Force, introduced the first cultures: Confederacy, Criminal, Imperial, Jedi, Rebel, Republic, Sith, and Yuuzhan Vong.
The first expansion, A Wretched Hive, introduced the Alien culture, in addition to several new mechanics and subcultures.
And now, before I begin work on the second expansion, The Clone Wars, I present The Battle Collection.
The Battle Collection is made up of 3 unique, advanced-level starter decks. Three different battles are featured: Battle of the Grassy Plains, Battle of Hoth, and Battle of Dantooine. Each Battle Box comes with 2 starter decks, 1 for each side of the battle. Each starter deck has 11 brand-new cards, along with a mixture of previously released cards.
The first Battle I will complete is Battle of the Grassy Plains, and after the cards are finished I’ll post decklists.
Please click the above links for keywords or mechanics.

When I came to Abraham I let him live just a moment longer. When I came to Moses I saved his life more than once. But the salmon... I regret to say I had a hand in its death.

I’ll go ahead and start things off with the leaders of each army, OOM-9 and Ceel.
 •OOM-9, Commander of the Droid Army [Confederacy]
Minion • Droid
Strength-11
Vitality-3
Roaming-4
Droid.
[Confederacy] Droids are not roaming.
Each time a [Confederacy] droid wins a skirmish, you may remove  to make another [Confederacy] droid damage +1 until the end of its skirmish.
3P6
 •Ceel, Commander of the Gungan Army [Republic]
Companion • Gungan
Strength-8
Vitality-4
Resistance-6
The twilight cost of each other Gungan in your starting alliance is -1.
For each possession Ceel bears, he is strength +1 and damage +1.
3P12
More to come! |

the first ability seems relatively worthless, only 1 twilight gungans will be able to start
More to come! |

Spammers really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month. And yet, after a hundred years, they can still surprise you.  |

I need to go ahead and bump this, as - in typical menace fashion - it’s just taken me a while to get things moving again.
The rest of this set is going up tomorrow, and then I will begin work on The Battle of Hoth! |

They look good menace. My only problem is with Ceel. I think he would be prefectly fine if he costed instead of . Then you would get a chance to actually find his ability useful. I look forward to more of your cards.  |

Well here we go, guys. I’ll take SoP’s advice and spread these out a bit... but there really aren’t that many to begin with.
Now, let me refresh y’all about what Battle of the Grassy Plains is. In my fictional world of ’what if this was a real game’, this is the first deluxe package of three in the Battle Collection. It comes with two copies of the same deck (featuring the battle with the Gungans at the end of TPM), so that two players can reinact the battle. Also, there are packs from the first two sets, Legacy of the Force and A Wretched Hive, along with a rulebook and some kind of fancy play mat.
The second Battle will be Battle of Hoth (Imperial vs. Rebel), then Battle of Dantooine (New Republic/New Jedi Order vs. Yuuzhan Vong).
Enough talk! Here we go!
Armored Attack Tank [Confederacy]
Possession • Vehicle
Strength +3
Enclosed. Bearer must be a [Confederacy] droid.
Bearer cannot take wounds. While you can spot an exhausted companion, bearer is fierce.
Each time bearer is assigned to skirmish an unenclosed companion, exert that companion.

 B-1 Battle Droid [Confederacy]
Minion • Droid
Strength-4
Vitality-2
Roaming-4
Droid. To play, spot a [Confederacy] droid or remove a [Confederacy] token from a capital.

When you play this condition, add X [Confederacy] tokens here, where X is the number of [Confederacy] droids you can spot.

3P3
•Droid Racks [Confederacy]
Possession • Support Area
Each time you play a [Confederacy] droid, you may reveal the bottom 3 cards of your draw deck and play a revealed [Confederacy] droid.

3P4
Multi-troop Transport [Confederacy]
Possession • Support Area

Between the conception
And the creation
Between the emotion
And the response
