Hi Ander,
I was wondering if you had made a PDF of the power cards for saric's Bard or Malcolm_n's Druid? For some reason, I can't seem to find them on your PDF or in your files. If its not too much trouble, could you post PDFs of those? I have two players who would love that. Thanks!

... I printed the ones I needed from Granpa's set, and they look great too. I can't wait to laminate them and hand them out to my players - they are going to be really, really happy, as they almost swooned at the prospect of writing down all the power text on their first 4E session
Nice. Glad they worked for ya.
JosiahKnight, those look awesome. Just thought I'd share!

I'm stunned at the work you've done, Grandpa! Stunned and delighted by it! Having printed so many of your cards already, I am thrilled that I can now print cards with pretty much everything that is worth having on a power card in the same style! Thank you! Now, please, have some rest!
And Hirahito - you're right - there really were columns for class and level in your mse set - they simply weren't displaying for me initially, and I failed my INT check to realize that I could add them myself. Sorry! It works fine!

Just a little tip for the finish: I didn't laminate the cards but got a set of card sleeves from the game store. For 3 Euro I have gained protection for 50 cards. And putting the cards in the sleeves takes much less time than lamiating them - at least with my cheap lamiation machine that is.

Not a problem! You scared me, though!

The new PDF is one file with every card in it, and is fully bookmarked.
All of the PHB cards are in one PPT file.
The tutorial has been updated to reflect the new changes.
Cards have been added for:
Roleplaying
Racial Traits
Class Traits
Class Features
Paragon Path Features
Epic Destiny Features
Skills
Feats
Normal Armor
Normal Weapons (built like Standard Action cards)
Other Gear
Conditions
Actions in Combat
Healing and Dying
Rituals
Another icon was made for the Adventuring chapter in the PHB (but isn't used).
Hope it helps your game.
This is an awesome set of work, Grandpa.
Funny, though, the version 4 of my cards is halfway done and the biggest change? The fact I was adding in cards for EVERYTHING, just like you were doing.
You came to the same conclusion I did; there simply is no such thing as too much information handed to the players in card form.
The trouble is, MSE isn't as nice as Power Point; I'm splitting mine out into separate files. So far I've got: Optional (ENWorld, SwordMage, etc), Magic Items, Powers, and Basic (Skills, etc.).
And I hope you don't mind, I'm stealing your icons for the magic items. They were the only ones out there and they're so nicely done I just couldn't resist.

I had the same thoughts. I saw the lines but never fooled with them. ATM I'm inputting my party's stats.
Hirahito, do you have an idea of when vs 4 will be out? With seven different designs / appearances I'd venture to say you might just unseat Ander00 as the leader on the MSE set front.

Well, I'm about half done. I have 3 of the designs completed and one almost complete.
I'm *not* releasing one of the designs (it just looks bad and I can't seem to fix it) and I've made an executive decision to NOT release two of the other designs YET. They were sideways designs specifically for the use of Monsters. I have not gotten a good layout for Monsters yet, so I've just decided to not do them with this release.
The main thing holding me back with this release is adding new cards and splitting them into separate 'bundles' so they are not so cumbersome for people to use. This version is going to have a HUGE number of added cards, including all of the standard magic items which a lot of people were asking for. Version 3 had 1057 cards and I'm way over that now without even trying hard.
Version 3, however, had everything kind of tumbled into one big MSE. I'm trying with this release to categorize everything using MSE's fields and to split them into 5 main MSE set's. One master file which has everything and 4 sub files which should be much easier to work with.
I've also been talking to the developer of MSE, Twan. I've found a few bugs in 3.6b of MSE and he's promised to fix them and release a new version of MSE soon.
If he can't get out a new version in time, I'm going to release v4 without the super-cool features I was going to add (*sigh*) and add them in a future release.
Probably way more info than you wanted to know, but there you go...
P.S. - It was not and never will be my intention to 'unseat' any of the Card developers. So far, all of us have been actively working to help each other out and to provide a good alternative to the users out there. Ander, for example, has a really clean landscape design. I've pretty much steered clear of a landscape design in deference to Ander's set until I started trying to add in Monsters. And there's just no freaking way I can get monsters to look good without a landscape design. Well, truthfully, I have one that looks semi-OK but I'm still not going to release it quite yet (too many other things to do). Not cursing you out, just clearing things up.
