I'm currently in the process of designing and producing a fan-project. I will be creating, what I like to call, a DCG (Downloadable Card Game). It will center around the Clone Wars, including the comics and the animated series. "Booster Packs" will actually be randomized ZIP files with the images. You would be able to print them off and play with them as you wish.

Well, anyways, tell me what you think of the idea.

Here's 2 promotional cards, a few stages behind where I am now:



(Maybe Bib can work an Apprentice patch for me and we can play online, eh? mischief )

Here's another promotional card, just shy of being finished. The game text has yet to be written and placed in.



It would be nice if I had some assistance in creating the card stats and overall game play. I'm not very fluent with game mechanics, I'm just good at making the images. tongue

it would be cool if grievous could use 4 sabers for a force drain bonus of + 4.

are you going to use the ccg mechanics?

by the way, the cards look great!
do the wolf jedi from episode 20 next!

I'm very fond of the CCG mechanics, but I also like the idea from the TCG of certain abilities characters can have. There will be locations, starships, vehicles, effects, interrupts, and the whole deal a la CCG.

The first two expansions are so far: Clone Wars: Season 1 and Clone Wars: Season 2. Don't worry, Voolvif Monn will have his own card in Season 2. wink

Heh, I already went and made the booster pack for the Season 1 expansion when I haven't even finished one damn card. tongue

I'd love to help with mechanics/GT etc. What can I do? I am much more familiar with the CCG, but I do know how the TCG uses Force to activate card abilites. That, from my understanding, was not too different than the CCG equvalent of "pay X force to Y".

I don't know how to play the SW CCG, will the rules be fairly easy to learn?

Guff,

The basics are pretty easy to learn (plus I'm sure some of us old timers will try to streamline rules where applicable), the devil is in the details. I don't know if for a small project like this you would run into many problems with that.

There's a sticky on here on how the CCG basically works.

What does "The M" mean? Could it be:

Jacema The Magician

or

Jacema The Murderer

or

Jacema The Masochistic

or

Jacema The Man

or

Jacema The Marshmallow

What could it be?!?

Greetings, blokes.

MoronDude... I actually read that as: Jace Mathem.

You could probably interpret that name a jillion different ways, though. We'll need The Man Himself to give us the Official Interpretation. wink

Waits for the arrival of The Man,
Yours Truly

P.S. That's a mighty fine job on the images of those cards. I'm impressed. Good luck in this endeavor, my friend!
