[QUOTE="Rils, post: 6971426, member: 78768"] These are great, nice work! I've been using MSE to make treasure cards for years. Usually I just use a simple full-text template, although on occasion I'll use a full art/text template or a standard MTG template. I'll often put the rules on the card, or at least a brief version of them, so the players can reference it without having to look it up elsewhere. (For what it's worth, I also made cards this way in 4e for my character's powers.) My personal preference would be to mark Attunement on the card by a simple graphic, like a little A somewhere in the corner, or on the middle info bar or something, that you can turn on or off as needed. I wouldn't probably worry about Sentience - it's so rarely used, and when it is, its more of a role-play thing. Regarding rarity, do you just enter it by hand on the middle bar, or is there a setting for that? When I do these using the MTG template, I just use the color-coded symbol to indicate rarity exactly like a MTG card - common is black, uncommon is silver, rare is gold, etc. Rather than entering it by hand, if there was a simpler way to either make it a drop-down or check-box field, or to just graphically show it by an icon (say, differently colored stars or something), that would be rad. Keep up the good work, I'll definitely be downloading this when you release it to the wild! [/QUOTE]
