Customizable Card Game? What's that?
A Customizable Card Game is unlike any game you've ever experienced before! In a normal card game, both players play with the same deck of cards. In the Lord of the Rings Trading Card Game (LotR TCG) players have a universe of over 2000 cards to choose from and each player builds their own play deck from a selection of these cards.
Cards are sold in starter decks and booster packs and new expansions are frequently released. You can 'customize' your deck by adding or removing cards between games to 'tweak' it into the ultimate winning machine!
Imagine playing a game of chess where each player could select from 2000 pieces, each of which moved differently. You would select your 16 pieces in secret, and so would your opponent. Sitting opposite him, surveying the board, you would make your attacks based on the pieces you selected, and form your defenses based on the pieces your opponent selected. Of course, you'd have to change your strategy and pieces from time to time, otherwise your opponent would always know what's coming and he could prepare for it by selecting different pieces! It would never get boring, that's for sure!
