Added you to MSN :)

I would say that rather than putting all the lists into one issue we seperate them out.  Maybe each issue has a theme?  Like all the "cards of the months" and articles reflect a specific expansion with that "collecting" list found at the back.  The information about the prices and costs could reflect one expansion as well, that way we don't get too overwhelmed.

Just ideas!

Yes, a block or a theme are good ideas to come up with. Just let me finish the layouts and we'll start working on the monthly issues and columns, articles, etc..

Thanks for the support! :D

And we could cover each set. Starting with fellowship, dealing with game mechanics etc. That way newer players could step in more easily.

Guys, I'd like to know your opinion on this booklet covers. It's supposed to be the cover for the card list of Ages End. Next in list is the "War of the Ring" anthology and then the promo list and so on. Which one you think that suits better this set?

One last question: I am in need of the culture symbols in a good quality so I can apply them to the card list. Anyone with this culture symbols willing to send me? It's kinda urgent... Thanks!

From TheJord - I'm sorry I cant allow grapics to be posted on the website as legal action would be taken against Kralik.

The first of those images for sure, that is epic.

Yeah, I think the same. Just wanted to let you guys decide for an alternative if you wanted... Ages End combines with the Barad-dûr tower falling down. Kinda gives me the meaning of "End".

Anyway, Ket, thanks for those, but since the booklets are for print those are quite too small :/ I already tried them once and they get all pixelated.. I need some a little bigger at least. If anyone owns an anthology box and card list booklet, you can check the size I need... ^^

There is a font I stole out of the online software...let me see if I can get it for you.  It might require you to "input" symbol because for some reason when I remake the font, the characters don't act correctly, something about them being the incorrect size for a font.

I'll get the font and give it to you Sete.

Sete if you would like to share graphics please do so by email. Kralik has specifically asked that we dont use graphical DC's (or dream covers in this case) as any legal action would be against him.

Many sorries, didnt knew that.

Could you just tell me one thing then? Doing a fan magazine for non profit and use this kind of images leads to any legal action? I mean, any fan page of lotr has hundreds of pictures of Lotr... I bet tolkien company isnt out there throwing hundreds of fan sites into juridic issues...

Ranofer, thanks, that would be awesome! Could you send it to my mail? Thanks once again!

Using Deciphers images in a non-profit magazine should be ok. Its when make our own images using their templates that we could run into problems.

I'd like to ask you all ideas for the magazine name. Would love to gather a few names so I could think of something cool!

Thanks Grin

Not very creative but:

Lord of the Rings TCG - The players magazine
Lord of the Rings TCG - The players perspective
The new journey - LOTR TCG

A New Age ??

Wouldn't it be better to name it something Lord of the Rings-y? Like the Scrolls of Isildur, or the Tale of Years or the Book of Marzarbul or any other of the famous chronicles from Middle-Earth.
