Re: RISE OF THE DREAD MOON discussion

I was about to start RotDM today on the companion app with a party of the Knight, Berserker (new character), Rogue, and Wizard. I was getting the treasure cards out of the box to mix in the treasure deck and noticed the cards from RotDM box are slightly larger then all the GS cards.

Has anyone else noticed or experienced this? The slight difference in size made them harder to shuffle, and the deck could be considered marked. The main set I use, the treasure cards have sleeves, but i didn’t have any sleeves handy at that time, so I was going to use the First Light deck instead when I noticed the size discrepancy.

Interesting. Which game system do you have (Haslab, retail 2021, retail slim box)?

I guess I sleeved mine right away so didn't notice any mismatches if there were any with my set...

by the way, with Wizards of Morcar remake will be featuring a Sir Ragnar sculpted mini, that could be something cool to add to your play through (though it won't be out for approximately 4 months).

I have all the haslab stuff, the mythic tier, and everything released since then. I don’t sleeve all my cards, just the ones that need to be shuffled frequently, so other cards from other things like character cards, skills, artifacts, etc. and they are all the same size. After the treasure card issue, I double checked the RotDM Knight and skill cards and they are also larger in size compared to everything else.

I can’t say if any newer expansions are this way for sure. I still have AtOH and JoD to go through eventually, but I have mixed in the character cards and skills for the newer Druids, and the Berserker Explorer heroes, and they match the older cards in size, so it seems only RotDM has slightly larger cards.

My treasure cards are already mixed, but I haven't noticed any size differentiation. It might just be your pack.

For those who felt the new Alchemy rules of this Rise of the Dread Moon expansion should have gone a further, and should have allowed the Heroes to craft more potions by their own from the new Alchemy cards, I designed with the help of Eudoxio, a dedicated fanmade mini-expansion, which you may find in the following thread:

viewtopic.php?f=58&t=7114

This work is also compatible with Jungles of Delthrak expansion and potions.
