[QUOTE="Remathilis, post: 4401364, member: 7635"] Probably the same as character sheets. The GSL doesn't allow you to republish the actual info on a given class/power, just its name and relative calculations (in the form of npc stat blocks, for example). Since reprinting info on powers is taboo, no company can create power cards for profit. HOWEVER Much like how WotC sells a character sheet pack (abit a poor one) but allows modders to make their own PDF sheets for download (but not for profit) I'm sure PDFs of power cards made for download and profit will not be taken as an affront to WotC's power cards. Assuming their cards are decent (M:TG level) cardstock and nicely done, more than a few people will drop the cash on a deck or two. WotC has no real fear from people making these puppies on their PCs and printing them on cardstock with their inkjets. In fact, I'd wager a complete set of card would run about $10 per class if you printed your own on an inkjet anyway. So, making a PDF of all wizard powers? Probably not going to bother WotC. Making your own decks and selling them? Trouble. Same as character sheets. [/QUOTE]
