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!

Nice. Glad they worked for ya.

JosiahKnight, those look awesome. Just thought I'd share!

OK, BIG update on my set of power cards:

I'm over 1500 hand-typed cards. I'm very tired.
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.

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.
