Here are my equipment cards. I remade the original cards, added some new ones, adapted from the US armoury.
I'll make an armoury card as well with these items on it for reference.

Comments are welcome!

in my opinion, the halberd needs a little twitching.

Mine costs 450 gold, but you can attack diagonally and vertically/horizontally over a distance of 2 squares.
Plus, because of the weapon's versatility, you can divide your 3 AD and attack 2 opponents who are adjacent if you want to.
That's basically one fast movement thrusting towards one opponent and then hacking sideways at the other.

The reason I made these changes is to differentiate it further from broadsword and longsword and to have a reason to up the price considerably
so that I don't have 3 heroes with halberds running around after 8 quests in the base game quest book.

Oh, and I don't see a shortbow for 2 AD...

well, the crossbow is already pretty affordable, so I don't see the need for a shortbow. The halberd is basically a cheaper longsword, with a no shield penalty.

Can anyone tell me who made this, and if there is still a high-res version available, preferably with layers intact (photoshop file .psd)? I believe it was Phoenix and Malechi. The resolution here is very low unfortunately...

I think I got this pdf from Vincent (Vincenzo), the guy who used to run the Do You HQ? site with Hero Quest Monopoly. Unfortunately he quit the site a year or two back. According to this post, he was in communication with drathe so that he could make his HQ Monopoly downloads available here (I haven't yet seen them). Maybe you could PM him at Old Scratch or get help from drathe.

Unfortunately, I can't get flickr to accept my pdf for image linking here. I also don't get how to make it an attachment. Maybe you can help me there. Also, I think I just have the same size image as you.

Well done, you two.
Exactly as I use it.

Nice card. I'd add something about line of sight. The NA crossbow mentions, "You may fire at any monster that you can "see." The Instruction Booklet goes into more detail for what a Hero can and can't see.

by the way, I like the alternative halberd.
