haha that's awesome, Mako! :D

I know Patroclus, Chaotic, and other kind folks here expressed interest in higher res files, so I uploaded all of my custom cards to a dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/4yvgm1okhd4h21k/hxhdJ07zC3

There are 300 dpi .tiff files for each card and card back, as well as the Photoshop files with layers intact. All sizes are based on the custom card templates. For some reason, .tiff won't show preview in dropbox, but Photoshop files will show previews.

The Parley cards indicate how many to print for each, and how many are in the set (24). Also, three more spell groups in there that I've yet to share here :D

I also included the Gary Chalk image where I got the Spell card backs. I'm still working on trying to improve the quality of the Moon Spell card back, the other spell card backs are of similar not-so-great resolution :P

Feel free to share, print, or modify as you wish!

Is there another place or different upload format that would be preferred to post these?

You know, the moon image isn't really that complex. How about scaling it up, printing it out and tracing the image? Could even do a little actual water coloring! It'll be easy!

I’ve try to not change too much. I just draw the lines again for a clean look. I left the sky as it was because I think it looks nice and very retro.

I will also upload the pages for printing.

I know I am fast… These are the cards for A4 printing. If you want another type of pages you can tell me to do it, or a smaller or bigger resolution (these are 300dpi). It’s just a click for me, so it is not a problem.

*I've make them pdfs (other programs could put margins even if you don't choose to)

And this is how they look:

ps: I should remind you to not choose shrink to fit or any other option. And they should have exactly the same height and width as the originals. If they don’t just tell me. I won’t print them right now, I will do it tomorrow maybe.

*don't use mspaint, for the final print only try adobe with the following settings:

WOW! That linework is wonderful, Patroclus! You have the chops to be a historical restoration artist. With a bonus concentration in 80s fantasy art :)

I will definitely be using this version when I print the cards.

I'm loving the teamwork here at Ye Olde Inn |_P

Thanks, actually I like the old fantasy art and I try to paint like that. I also have to thank you for the cards, they are very balanced.

Caution: for those who already download the images from rapidshare, I have to tell you that if you try to print them from mspaint, even if you remove the margins for the printing, the result could have margins so the output is smaller than the original!
That’s why I have update my previous post with the images as pdfs this time, and by choosing “none” to the option “Page Scalling”, the output will be perfect.

About the Change Form spell, I think it should be used only against common monsters and not versus Mages, Bosses, Huge monsters as Ogres. For the basic system, I think only orcs, fimirs, skeletons, zombies, mummies, chaos warriors, gremlins, and dark elves should be vulnerable. If we change the text as “This spell may be cast on any common Monster” could be better?
