For those interested in a sci-fi CCG/LCG there is the newly released Dog Fight: Starship Edition

 I know there are already two fantasy setting LCGs, but how cool would a Midnight Chronicles LCG be? 

I would love to see Decipher's WARS TCG as a Living Card Game. It was a great SCI-FI game, with its own background, and great mechanics. I think it died to quickly.

Someone said Iron Kingdoms earlier, that would be incredibly awesome, but I think Privateer Press would rather make it themselves than give the rights to another company.

So I'll keep hoping for 40k I suppose. Though, what's happening with the Kingdom Hearts card game? Did FFG give up the rights? (Also, it'll never happen but I'd love a Legend of Zelda card game in the LCG format. I've thought of a lot of plans for such a game.)

When FFG announced the end of UFS, they also announced the end of Kingdom Hearts and any future ccgs, concentrating instead on only lcg lines.

 Deadlands: Doomtown or 7th Sea. As noted in my previous post with reason for why they are good choices. 

In Doomtown you can play the Lovecraftian family "The Whatleys" as a faction. Its Western and FFG has no Western games ATM. It was a hit for the years until it was canceled for unknown reason to me. The RPG was brought back and has sold well. Has an interesting backand story to evolve the LCG with. Unique mechanics for combat and deck building.

7th sea has pirates need I say more?

Someone had mentioned using Deciphers WAR TCG, the play mechanics and card types were carried over from there Star Wars CCG. I played a lot of Star Wars in that day and age, was upset when Wizards aquired the rights and butchered the game play badly.

That would be a great idea but I would like to see a LCG based off Star Wars (Wizards didn't renew their contract with Lucas), 40K (carry over from Sabertooth games), or a new Sci-Fi IP.

Bringing back the 40K CCG would be fantastic (and I'd rather have had that than Warhammer Fantasy) but maybe doing it using similar mechanics as Warhammer Invasion might be a nice idea. If Invasion can handle 8 factions, so could a 40K version.

I would like to see an lcg more focused on roleplaying - like GW's Inquisitor with cards. Core sets and big expansions may offer characters and skills while monthly packs could offer different environments with related creatures and quests for the characters to go through.

That's a good idea.

WARS TCG redone as a LCG would probably do just as poorly. It was an ok game(good rules set), even though it had bad Decipheritis with card distribution and useless pieces of paper. And the card design wasn't the most attractive. Finally, it was just a cheap clone of....

Star Wars CCG as an LCG would be great. A lot of the chaff could be eliminated. Card limits could be imposed. It'd be pretty balanced. We'd need to get four starters in the core set. One land and one space deck for each side (for the newbies..and to continue the draft idea started in W:I) As a sci-fi property... well, it's a household name. Too bad about the licensing and what not.

BSG and Firefly... Eh. Maybe it's just me, but I don't feel most photographic card art, unless it's from a truly nerd-iconic source (like Star Wars, Star Trek, or LOTR) I'd play a Battlestar LCG before I'd play Firefly. Shows that get canceled early provide little in the way of source material.

Battletech, anyone? Decent game. Decent art. Established sci-fi universe. Licensing may be a problem. 40k could be really cool as well, but I'd like to see an original version.

As for fantasy LCGs.....  Middle-Earth would be a preferred version to get the LCG treatment, but the Decipher version was good.. until it got Decipheritis.

WoW may seem cool, but I like it where it is.  The world is similar enough with Warhammer Fantasy that it doesn't seem like it'd be a moneymaker for FFG.

But, that being said, I'd be all over a Blood Bowl LCG.

I would say you got your wish with the new cooperative LotR LCG

If done right, I would buy this. Something story or quest based, avoiding conflict, etc.
