LOTR TCG magazine

[Yanko Markovic]

Yeah Thran, something like The Thain's Book or something modified like "The Westmarch Chronicles" would be nice.
PD: What you are doing is just great, I've read almost every thread about this, too bad I'm far away to join you or something...

A pc, internet and mail or msn is fair enough to join me and the rest of the guys! Joining this project is more like a will to give away some free time and write about something you want or contributing with something you think it would be good in the magazine...

Every helping member of the community is more then welcome to join me!

Can we move this to The LOTR TCG Magazine thread?

[chompers]

How is the magazine going Sete? Can you give everyone an update of progress and outline some main areas that you need members from TLHH to volunteer to help.

Do you have some sort of format or outline of the magazine structure? At this stage we have some suggestions of content - perhaps you can summarise the key points for everyone.

[Sete]

What I need the most right now is... articles. Deck articles, card articles (reviews, etc like NB used to do...)

Im lacking content to work on the magazine... Cause I need to know what sections I gotta do, and so on...

^^

[TheJord]

I suggest you look for volunteers Sete.

[Sete]

Well, it's hard to get some support on this work... My best hopes is having ket the jet doing some great deck studies for the magazine... And well, any cool idea is nice... Like, if you do a deck, you just need to explain the key cards, the sites, combos or moves, etc... And there ya go, a cool article...

Or like NB used to do with single cards... making all the review and study of it...

I'd really need some sort of material like that.. :/ Otherway a magazine with 3 pages is not a magazine lol is a bulletin ... ;P

I can do a newbie's perspective on LotR: TCG and why I started it long after it stopped produciton in '07.
Also, maybe we can get a certain selected player to write us an article on his favourite card. Maybe I can be the first player. :p

What do you guys think?


P.S: I really want this magazine and the PC to take place, so I will do whatever I can to help and contribute.

[chompers]

i would suggest advertising this site and gccg in the magazine

it may also be worth mentioning / advertising that some are attempting to establish a pc for lotr. the exact role of the pc and what it will do for the game remains undetermined so essentially advertising for more people to get involved and help.

[Thranduil]

I don't have my LotR cards with me right now, but this weekend (when I do!) I will look through them and find a combo that I can talk about. Hopefully I should have it to you Sete by this time next week.

[Gil-Estel]

I will write an article as well.

[Kenddrick]

Great! Now we have many people (Gil-Estel, chompers, Thranduil, Kenddrick) on board, we can start to assign the tasks!

[Kenddrick]

In order to kickstart the magazine article, I have already started writing a LotR: TCG article.

I will write on why I started playing LotR:TCG 2 years after it stopped production, and what is it that appeals to me.

I will upload it shortly, and send a copy to Sete at the same time!

Edit:
Oh yes, I was thinking of asking everyone to submit a short column on what their favourite card in FotR is, and why. What do you guys think?

[Kenddrick]

My article is done!

Bear in mind this may not be the finished version, as I will tailor it should there be any major errors spotted.

hmm I think there is only one problem with it, on page 2 you start talking about the appeal of the characters being on cards and then start talking about parry,

"One of the main reasons for appeal was the characters in the movies being in the cards. I always wanted to see what the characters stats will be when shown in numbers. The card game has images taken directly from the movies, which makes it even more interesting as well. I have always envisioned the "live action" whenever I play a card in LotR: TCG. For instance: Parry.

and then you wait 2 pages before talking about characters, you should bump the part about characters up to the point where you first start talking about them.
