Summary[]

From White Wolf Quarterly Summer 2003 Volume 1.3 (Pg. 9 and Pg. 15):[]

White Wolf and Partners Take Exalted to New Heights

"Those who like their gaming unplugged can also look forward to the Exalted Trading Card Game (TCG), produced by White Wolf's own card games department. "We're bringing Exalted's rich setting, cinematic battles and anime-styled art to a trading card game format," said Steve Wieck, Director of Card Game Development at White Wolf, "and we're not settling for the same tired TCG game mechanics. We're going to let a massive number of playtesters put this game through its paces to test out some unique play mechanics and strategies.""

A New Age of Trading Card Games for the Second Age of Exalted

"In fact, anyone interested in seeing the Exalted TCG develop from the ground up should go to [defunct website] and become part of the playtest."

WANT TO JOIN THE FREE DESIGN PLAYTEST?

The game is currently in design and you are invited to join the playtest. If you would like to take part in the playtest of this new trading card game, follow the links below.

STEP #1 - Join The Mail List

You will periodically receive e-mails from the list letting you know that a new version of the game is available for download and testing, so it's important to be on the list. This is NOT a discussion list, so the only mail you will ever get will be letting you know about rules updates. We NEVER sell or give this information to anyone! After you submit to the list, you will get an e-mail you will need to reply to to finish the process of adding you to the list. You can also unsubscribe from here if you no longer want to be on the list.

STEP #2 - The Legal Stuff

Before you access the playtest files or join the playtest discussion forum, it is important that you understand that your participation in the playtest is a volunteer effort and any constructive criticism or ideas you contribute to the game’s development are considered gifts. Therefore, would like for any comments or constructive criticism to be handled through our forums. In order to join the forums, you will need to read and agree to our legal text found here.

Step #3 Download The Files

The zipped files below are in MS-Word format. You will probably find that copying and pasting cards into the "new deck template file" and then printing out your new deck will be easier than printing lots of copies of all of the cards and then assembling your deck.

Once you print the cards, cut them out and play with them as plain paper or sleeve them if you have card protector sleeves and find that it's worth the effort.

That's it! Hope you enjoy the game - we can't wait to hear your feedback and ideas on how to make it better! Thanks!
