FFG card sleeves and WFR cards

By camelon75, in Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay

Just bought a bundle of FFG card sleeves yesterday and spent most of the afternoon putting the cards in them.

Thought it would help reduce wear and tear diuring regular play

Now they all slide all over the place,and refuse to stack properly, even when asked nicely!

So if you are considering this option you will have to ask yourself if the long term protection of the cards is better than the frustration of the slide effect.

For now I will leave them in the sleeves as I cannot be bothered to spend any more time removing them and think only the wounds, insanities and miscast need to be stacked during play so might only remove them.

ps. if anyone has any tips let me know

They do that while they are new. With time, you should be able to stack them normally. You can also divide those cards you have to stack during play (wounds, insanities) into two or three stacks each, to the point they don't slide apart anymore.

I just scanned all my cards, and professions.

Took me a while.

Now I plan to edit them, give them some handy form, add tracking numbers (to dispose the need of using tracking tokens), then print a few copies for my players.

It looks like hell of a ride, but when I finish, I should have no more problems with cards.

Original ones will be safely closed in the box, while my players will play with printed ones.

At least until FFG starts to sell card packs.

I use one of those plano style boxes (similar to the thing below) to sort all of my cards and counters during play.

I've got it facing my players and the lid has a reference sheet taped to the inside so when I flip it up, it doubles as a DM screen.

Cleanup is also super simple.

Hey Froo,

Could you provide a link to where you got those?

Cheers

This one, no idea where I got it from, it is one of the many storage solutions I've had sitting in my shed for some time now which I cannibalised for this game.

Those sort boxes can be found at any hardware or bait & tackle store.
