Trandosite was a UK SWCCG fan site run by Rod Latham (The Unknown Trandoshan; anagram handle Res Luk Ra'auf). Latham started it in October 1998. Its last homepage update, a shutdown notice, is dated 9 July 2001.[1] The site billed itself as Europe's main SWCCG site, with news, articles, decks, UK tournament coverage, a 2000 Worlds qualifier board and player interviews.[1]

What it had

The site's sections were:[1]

  • Today's News · Deck Clinic · World Finals 2000
  • What Is SWCCG? · Articles · Mini-Articles · Decks · Tournament Reports
  • Interviews · UK Tournament Area · Have/Want List · Links · Xtra: Archives · Staff Writers

Decks (post–Death Star II, Light / Dark / other / archives) held tournament-viable lists sorted by strategy (ROps, Hunt Down, BHBM, …).[2] The lists are at Trandosite decks. World Championships 2000 was a qualifier table (country and championship seat) with links to Worlds-finals history and wild-card results.[3]

Staff: Rod Latham (webmaster, Taunton), Alex Tennet (assistant webmaster, Newcastle), Rob Ronnlund, Eric Bailey, Dan Mailloux.[4]

Interviews

Trandosite ran sixteen player interviews from April to October 2000, mostly by Latham (some with Alex Tennet / B. Beveridge).[5] Full copies are on the player pages and indexed at Interviews.
