Swashbuckling Cards RETURN!

[ColonelHardisson]

can you think of a more recent source ofr swashbuckling quotes? from the doccument, these were pulled from everywhere from Looney Tunes to Eroll Flynn.

Terry Gilliam's "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen" is a really good source.

These are pretty cool, thanks. They remind me of the ones put out by GWG/PEG.

Terry Gilliam's "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen" is a really good source.

Well, they allready used the princess bride to death in the original post, so guess what...

I always feel rejuvenated by a touch of adventure.
Play: Immediately after combat is resolved
Effect: You regain hit points as if you had just spent a full day resting under the watchful eye of a competent healer.

No, let me go! I've got tides to regulate! Comets to direct! I don't have time for flatulence and orgasms!
Play: At the beginning of any encounter
Effect: Target enemy or NPC suddenly remembers something very important they have to do. Far more vital than dealing with pesky adventurers.

Well, where's the fun in that?
Play: After an enemy spellcaster released any ranged spell at you
Effect: The enemy wants a better view of you getting destroyed, and moves towards the player.

They're inviting us to defeat them! We must oblige them!
Play: At the beginning of any combat where the party is outnumbered at least 2-1
Effect: All party members gain a +2 morale bonus to all attacks, damage, and saving throws for the duration of the combat.

Thanks once again!

I've been using the old lot for uh, a swashbuckling campaign, no less. Surprised? I am.

They've been great fun. I'll have a look at these, see which I prefer.

Cheers.

Hmm... okay, how do you distribute these cards among your players? Do you just print them out then hand out the deck and tell them to each take a turn drawing? or do you give them out as rewards?

RTFM. Instructions comprise the first page of the PDF.

Is it possible for us to suggest more swashbuckling cards?

I would say that not only is it possible, but that you have in fact already suggested them.

I have no plans at this time to make MORE cards. Of course anyone who wants to can produce their own -- and thanks to the joy that is the Creative Commons, you can include the existing set in your own and distribute them yourself!

Hrm... I wonder how well these would go with Iron Heroes... Or Spycraft... A few of them might need some very small adjustments.

 

[barsoomcore]

Not many, I shouldn't think, but I'm not very familiar with either of those systems. I'd be interested to hear what changes are necessary.
