Some random, new cards!

By The Envoy, in WFRP House Rules

Hey,

I used Strange Eons to create individual cards for my group and I would like to share them. :)

Mind that I took illustrations from the Interwebz to make the cards look cooler. :>

Barrage of Aqshy (Rank 2 Bright Order Spell):

I like the card Overwatch. But i would have named it. Where the hell you think your going?! or Don't leave me!

hehe

Thanks!

And yes, another name would fit better, but at least to my players, "overwatch" is a very common term from other games (i.e. the videogame "XCOM").

Just named it like that so that no further explanation is required. xD

Overwatch is a term for covering an area with ranged fire though. Which isn't a bad idea either.

Instead of it being a melee attack I would reccomend having it just be an ability to follow. Reaction cards that let you do extra attacks is very powerfull in this game as enemies can't take too many hits. Perhaps make the successes just have the player follow the person attempting to leave, where aditional successes, give Entangled effect, trip him up etc.

"Not so fast" is what I would have named it but I do like the idea of a reaction card to someone trying to break off from engagement.

Great Ideas, Thanks for sharing them

I will definitely use those, maybe with few minor changes to suit more me and my game style

Barrage of Aqshy - make it rank 3, difficulty increases by 1 purple for second attempt, also second attempt require additional 4 power. Add chaos star result - you are subject to your own spell.

Elvish Aethyric Control - to negate chaos star, it requires to suffer 4 stress - ignoring chaos star during spellcraft is very powerfull. Also limit this talent to elven mages (if you use house rules for them)

Overwatch - increase difficulty by 1 Purple, add chaos star effect - you may not use one of your active defences (GM choice) on your next turn. Recharge 5

Your End is Nigh - difficulty for green side - 2 black, for red side - 1 purple. Add chaos star effect - you droping your pistol, 2 chaos stars effect - your pistol is damaged, it cannot fire until repaired

Sure, you can add some difficulty to these cards if that suits your game style better. ^^

My group is rather "heroic" and therefore, the players are a bit more competent than the usual starting characters, which is also reflected by our custom cards. ;)

Are you able to adjust these cards yourself or do you want me to do it for you?

I'll do it myself. Thanks for asking.

Hi,

I really like your cards, but I can't find the base you used in Strange Eons. Would it be possible for you to send your card file, please ? ^^

Thanks in advance,

Thomas
