Dear all! Can someone please provide a list of all Action Cards sorted into categories? This can be followed by discussions on the use of different Action Cards.

All the best,

Allavandrel

This might be considered too much of a spoiler?

hmmmm..... some people might like the excitement of opening up the core box and not knowing exactly what's in it? in that sense a spoiler, I meant.

These people can just skip this thread !

A list would be very useful for people considering to buy the game, but unsure about the whole action card thing.

Thanks in advance.

Regardless of whether you get a full list or not I think that it is important to note that there are action 'blanks' for whatever the players can come up with and that the GM agrees to. They have no renew cost so they can be done every turn. Like for instance if you wanted to swing from a chandalier, there's a way of dealing with that if you want.

And, even if you don't wish to use the blank cards I see no reason (freshly back from a great discussion about the game with Mr. Jay Little) that the player(s) and GM couldn't agree on what the action would be, the die results could be and the potential negative effects and what the difference between being catious and reckless might be as well.

The action cards are for wanting a little extra 'oomph' on a particular thing. You use the action cards to get the special stuff not so much to do the action itself. I forgot to mention that in the above post.

For instance, one action makes the task more difficult (adds a purple die) but pays off by allowing a melee combat to immediately follow a firearm attack. Like most of the game, anything and everything can be done, you just have to be willing to pay the price.

I guess most Action Cards such as Execution Shot have already been mentioned and/or discussed in other threads. For some of us who live in countries where the demo event didn't occur or who for some reason were unable to participate in the event, it is a bit frustrating not to have a clear overview of some of the main components in the game (such as Action Cards), and it makes it more difficult to follow the discussions about the use of certain cards in this forum.

It's a pretty big list of cards.
