Battle of Endor - You
Make The Card - Final Image by
Brian Weeks
From
across the starry heavens to the lowest levels of the forest floor,
an epic battle rages. Planet side, Imperial scout troopers, rebel
commandos, and even the indiginous furry Ewoks fight for dominance
and their own survival. Far above, in the cold reaches of space,
two Jedi fight to fulfill their destinies. The ultimate battle of
good versus evil is about to begin, and this time, YOU are in control.
The first and only time Wizard
of the Coast allowed Star Wars TCG players world-wide to help develop
a card for the TCG was for the Empire Strikes Back expansion.
After seven online polls, Mara
Jade (A) was created. In three years and ten WOTC expansions,
the TCG fan got to help make one card. The IDC rectified this oversight
by allowing you to help create the Equipment card, Thermal Detonator
for Scum
and Villainy. So, today and in the following weeks, YOU, the
loyal TCG player, will again help us create a card for our next
expansion, Battle
of Endor.
You
Make The Card - Fel's TIE Interceptor (A)
The Circle is now complete!
After seven weeks of voting and weeks of playtesting, you, the
TCG player, have helped the IDC develop a card for the upcoming
expansion, the Battle
of Endor. Here is the final card design for Fel's TIE Interceptor
(A).
And, as a special bonus, to give
you something to do until the big release next week, is to decipher
who this Character might be and why he's in the Battle of Endor
expansion.
