LOTR Card maker
« on: February 12, 2009, 09:09:27 PM »
Hi im new here.  I dunno if there is already a topic on this, but is there such a thing as a program that allows you to make LOTR TCG cards?  Perhaps a program similar to Magic Set editor (http://magicseteditor.sourceforge.net/welcome)

I can't think of a computer program, but if you look at the chamber of marzubal (The forum, not the card) you'll find a whole bunch of cards made up by other members of the site.

Posting graphical dream cards is strictly against the rules of this site (http://lotrtcgwiki.com/forums/index.php?topic=278.0), not to mention a violation of Decipher and New Line Cinemas/Tolkien Enterprises copyright.

Bottom line = stick to the Chamber of Mazarbul forum to create text-only dream cards.

LMAO!!

Nah, I just don't like the thing with people being so picky about graphical dream cards. Yak yak yak I know it's not legal, tell me about it, but what the hey, let's have some fun.

Isn't there anyway to workaround. I'd like to see some new cards or new mechanics. Can't we ask decipher and New Line Cinema for an exception fan set (say once a year 8 cards or so) or something.

Maybe we could even convince them to give us the rights to make a sequel cardgame, playable with lotr, about the hobbit. We create the gametext, they provide the cards and take the profit?

THe problem is you would have to ask Tolkien Ltd about it as well, as they hold the right to to works of JRR Tolkien. And believe me, that will not be easy. The MECCG community looked at it as well after MECCG died.

Hopefully the LOTR templates for the Magic Editor program will be done soon. If they are still working on it. I bet if a bunch of us went over and made our interest known on their forum it would help.

If you start from scratch and create your own card template, then this is allowed and perfectly within the rules. It only becomes illegal if you use Decipher's template.

Which is something people have now been talking about doing since the game finished and still nothing has happened. I'm really not expecting that any time soon.

I agree with you. I've got the impression that nobody is taken action to it. There is an American guy who is saying that he's busy with it. But he's doing so for over 2 years now. I'm convinced that's going nowhere.

I like to give it another attempt. But then I need you people to back me up!

Well, get a petition going first. We need numbers to back up any request. I'd say we need 200-500 names to get some recognition. But even then there are no assurances.
