Alright, the project is nearing a close. So far, I have 10 of the 14 PDFs done. This includes the health chart, figures, laid out cards, and character biographies. The four decks I don't have completed are waiting on character biographies.
The character biography should be a short paragraph about each character that includes their histories, their function in the universe, and/or what they're known for. A good character bio weaves one or two card names in - even if it comes off a little cheesey. There is an example available here.
The decks that still need character bios are Kyle Katarn (with Jan Ors), Jaina and Jacen Solo, Talon Karrde (with Shada D'ukal), and Mara Jade Skywalker (with Anakin Solo). I'm sure I'll write these eventually, but if you don't want to wait on me to do that, help out and write one up.
Do you think we should add brief deck descriptions? (i.e. talk about how the deck plays/ranks, strategies, etc)
Do you think, in the case of players who don't know a character even a little, there should be something that points them in the right direction? (i.e. a link to a wookieepedia article, or maybe "the character presented here can be further discovered in Timothy Zahn's 'Thrawn Trilogy' from Bantam." or whatever.)
Other ideas and suggestions welcome.
Edit: I forgot to mention the maps. I have PDFs ready, but they are without descriptions. I plan to have the map bio/description include a blurb about the location (i.e. why Kessel exists, why it has prison-mines) and probably a blurb about which characters from the EU have made it to that location. If you have suggestions or help for that, discuss in the maps thread.
