As announced at WorthPlaying.com, coming soon is a new Stargate on-line and tabletop board game based on Stargate: SG-1.
Launching simultaneously in both PC and tabletop versions, the Stargate Trading Card Game is based on the popular science-fiction television series.
The debut set, Stargate SG-1, features robust organized play support and a physical redemption program called “Through the Gate,” where players collect a full set of a particular expansion of digital cards and will in turn redeem that digital set for a set of corresponding physical cards.

UPDATE ON OUR EBAY SECURITY ISSUE AND OUR STARGATE AUCTION LISTINGS
To our valued Clients, Bidders and Friends:
We sincerely apologise for the confusion concerning our eBay Stargate listings that were cancelled this weekend. The problem has now been resolved but for those bidders/viewers, who were watching those items, allow us to explain what happened:
On Feb 23 someone compromised our eBay Seller account and managed to alter some of our listings by adding a fake “Buy this item now” option (with the idea of trying to get bidders to send him funds.) In working with eBay security personnel we had the compromised listings removed and our Seller account and taken offline whilst we investigated the problem.
We are pleased to say that with the help of eBay security personnel, we have now resolved the issue and have also implemented additional eBay security measures to ensure this type of thing does not happen again. With these security measures in place, we shall now relist all of the 33 cancelled items over the next 3 days.
(If we list them all at the same time, then they will all close at the same time, which would put a strain on our shipping department in getting all 33 items packed and shipped promptly. For this reason, we shall relist over 3 days)
Once again, we apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused and encourage you to continue to view our auctions. If you were a bidder on one of the cancelled items, we hope you’ll be back with your bids once again!

Thank you…..and good luck in your bidding!

SPOILER WARNING: The following contains some spoilers for Season Three and Four of Stargate Atlantis.
Fans of Stargate Atlantis have been given a behind-the-scenes look at the pre-production process by show-runner Joseph Mallozzi in his new personal blog. Recently, Mallozzi told his readers the titles of six of the first episodes slated for the new 20-episode season. The producers are currently in “prep week”, the week before filming begins to basically set up everything from casting, costumes, stunts, special effects, props, visual effects and playback, set design, and location scouting. It all comes together with a series of meetings with each department head. Then, the filming begins on March 1.
Last year, the filming of Season Three took a break during July, but this year, Mallozzi has stated that the cast and crew will most likely take their break in June. Then, it’s back to work until they’re finished filming sometime around September 28.
Season Four will see plenty of changes in front of the camera with the absence of Paul McGillion (Dr. Carson Beckett) and limited appearances of Torri Higginson (Dr. Elizabeth Weir), and with the addition of Amanda Tapping (Lt. Col. Samantha Carter) to the main cast, as well as Jewel Staite in her recurring role of Dr. Keller, Beckett’s replacement after his accidental death in Season Three’s “Sunday”. Mallozzi stated that viewers would have to tune in to find out if there are any other changes to the personnel of the Atlantis Expedition as they face a new enemy and new challenges in the Pegasus Galaxy.
It’s not unusual for episodes to be filmed out of final airing order because of various challenges the production crew may face, including cast availability. Right from the start, we know that Amanda Tapping will not be available for filming some of the Atlantis episodes because she’ll be filming the two Stargate SG-1 movies (The Ark of Truth is to start filming April 15; Continuum, June 1; each taking about four weeks to film). This might be why Carter will be seen in only 14 episodes of the 20-episode season and possibly why they are starting production with the episode “Doppelganger” instead of the season premiere “Adrift”. Additioinally, Robert C. Cooper is writing, directing, and producing “Doppelganger” and then going straight to writing, directing, and producing Stargate: The Ark of Truth, so his availablility was also most likely a contributor to his episode being first on the production slate.

Not only is Amanda Tapping moving into the main cast of Stargate Atlantis for Season Four, but SG-1 actor Christopher Judge is scheduled to make an appearance in an episode in the first half of the new season, according to Joseph Mallozzi in a recent Chicago Tribune interview.
Mallozzi also addresses the possibilities of the remaining SG-1 main cast members’ appearances in Season Four:
There were no plans at present, he said, to have Ben Browder (who plays “SG-1’s” Cameron Mitchell), Claudia Black (”SG-1’s” Vala Mal Doran) or Michael Shanks (”SG-1’s” Daniel Jackson) guest on “Atlantis,” but Mallozzi didn’t rule it out.
“They’re going to be in the two ['Stargate SG-1' DVD] movies” that are being filmed this spring, Mallozzi said. As far as bringing them back to “Atlantis,” “it’s a matter of coming up with a believable story and the actors’ availability and everything else. At this point it makes more sense for Teal’c or for Daniel Jackson to come to ‘Atlantis’ than for [Cameron] Mitchell.”
He added that Christopher Judge, who plays Teal’c on “SG-1,” will guest on one early fourth season episode of “Atlantis.”
The article also addresses the premise behind the new season’s storyline:
Mallozzi said that Season 4 of “Atlantis” would also feature the arrival of a new alien race, one that will be an “unpredictable wild card.”
“Looking over the 10 stories we’ve been thinking about” for the first half of Season 4 of “Atlantis,” Mallozzi said, “the easiest way to put it is that a lot of [stuff] is going to go down. Some fans will not like it, some fans will love it. We’re going to get movement on characters, and we’ll have some fairly character-centric stories. We’re going to develop an aspect of the Wraith, and we’re going to have this new wild-card race,” he said.
