A small gift for german players

[nico21000]

Hello, pals.

Sorry for posting here in english, but unfortunately I don't know a single word in your language...

So, here's a small gift for you... It is part of a HUGE project that I have in mind, that you'll hear about soon, and in which you can get involved ! Stay tuned and enjoy ! [-me_cp-]

Great!

[nico21000]

My pleasure, Christoph ! If I remember right I got the spoilers from your website...

Nice indeed. And it reminds me, that someone already did a complete set of German cards some years ago. Cant remember who it was. But i should have a copy of it somewhere. If this could help you in any way, just let me know.

[nico21000]

Oh, yes. I'd like to see it, but more as a curiosity than any other thing. I did these cards as 'trials' and 'proofs of concept' for my upcoming project, but I don't have the intention to make a full german collection ! The main text font (Times new roman) doesn't even have the ß character...

@Thorondor:
Would be interested in who it was, too.

@nico21000:
There's 2 typos on the Radagast card, maybe you'd like to correct these?
- The race of Radagast should read "Gefallener Zauberer" (instead of "Gefallenen", a matter of grammar)
- The first "HeldenVerbündete" better reads with a hyphen, too, "Helden-Verbündete"

Cheers!

Fixed ! Clean your browser cache to force reload.

Fantastic!
So sorry I've detected two more typos only now

Gefallener-Zauberer => Gefallener Zauberer (no hyphen, either)
Heere des spielers => Heere des Spielers (capital S)

[nico21000]

Done. Clean your browser cache to force reload. And congratulations, Christoph ! You just won an access to some of my work files ! Mail sent.

Wow! These look really amazing. Do you have an estimate of when the sets will be ready?

[nico21000]

Unfortunately, no.

I'm working on building Photoshop templates for an eventual remaster that will be digital-only, and allowing to port the entire game to previously unreleased languages. English is the first and main goal, but it's an insane amount of work (~1650 cards) that I won't be able to handle only by myself, and I don't know a single german word. So you shouldn't expect anything, unless someone will apply as a volunteer to do it...

[DM_Eonwe]

I think there are already some translations available. Let me check and I message you.

I've just updated the list of the German WH edition.

The "Lidless Eye" german edition was missing "Goblin-gate".

If I have good informations it was released later, as a small addon to the "Against the Shadow" german edition, which was sold as a whole set.

I recently found a poor picture of it, reproduced here:

With a bit of magic, I managed to "rebuild" a decent version of this card. Enjoy:

It was me who did the whole set of Balrog and White Hand cards as a pdf in german language.
I had printed it an the same cardboard as the original ones.
But the printing is not as good as the unofficial new sets.
But still very good.
In sleeves you wouldn’t notice a difference to the originals.
