V:TES to Cease Production
After 10 years back at White Wolf
Vampire: The Eternal Struggle® Trading Card Game to Cease Production
Atlanta, GA September 10, 2010--Vampire: The Eternal Struggle™, the
trading card game published since 2000 by White Wolf Publishing Inc.,
has survived the lifetimes of many Methuselahs, been a terrifying
vehicle for their manipulative ways and a true forum for the creation
of lifelong friends and bitter enemies since its launch in 1994.
White Wolf has been increasingly unable to continue serving the V:TES
community in the way that the game requires. After an exhaustive
search for possible alternatives to extend V:TES, one of the oldest
collectible card games will be returning to torpor once more. White
Wolf sought out many possible licensors to take over the franchise but
an accord could not be met. V:TES will finish the year strongly with
the North American Championship at The Grand Masquerade in New Orleans
and the European Championship in Paris and continue to support
tournaments for another year, even in the absence of new expansions or
reprints of old sets. The strength of V:TES has always been in its
devout following, and White Wolf trusts that while the game may
retreat from the light for the forseeable future, it will never suffer
a final death.

On a personal note: I've played V:TES for most of my life and have
worked with it for 100% of my personal career. My experience is filled
with unforgettable memories, unforgettable friends, and few but
unforgettable regrets. It is with a heavy heart that we came to the
decisions we did regarding V:TES. On the up side, it has been my
sincere pleasure to have met and worked with as many of you as I have
and I invite everyone that can make it to the Continental
Championships to do so I'd like to buy you a drink.
