What's your next step?
Next I will finish up the Shadow Culture templates. I still need to get the Non-Character versions of those whipped up. Then we can look at the site template again, and finally The One Ring.
Once all the templates are complete. It will then be the right time to start talking about how Second Edition is going to work. That discussion should probably take place in the Undying Lands forum rather than here, because 2E isn't a dream card project as far as I'm concerned.
EDIT: As of 10:00 pm this evening, I have located the version of Garamond BE used for the cost, strength, vitality, resistance and home site numbers. With this discovery, all font requirements for templating are now complete. In theory, if I got hi-res versions of the original templates, I could completely generate new cards from them and maintain the exact same look.
I mocked up a version of
Freca using the 72dpi character blank I have for Dunland. Keep in mind, this blank does not have a home site icon.

http://postimage.org/image/5dhdwyz7z/As you can see, it is much more optimal to work with a 300 dpi blank because of text rasterization. I scale all of the previews for the new templates down from 300dpi to 72dpi to show you guys, but the text is still very clear because I worked with a high resolution template from the beginning. When I render the same font directly onto a 72dpi image, however, the result is much more fuzzy.
So, long story short, I would need 300dpi resolution versions of the original blank templates in order to realistically use them for this 2E project.
