Templates Prepping Cards for the Remake

[Super Saiyan Musashi]

Per a request, I will supply the templates I've been using to make my intended expansion cards, both as textless images and as GIMP Projects you can edit. I can't promise an exact match, but I've been using the Verdana Bold font in most of my cards, with Garamond for the Hero descriptions.

Thanks for sharing!
And I can see you did pretty much what I did, which was to use the rubber stamp and marquee tools to "erase" the text and images that were there on the HQ remake website/blog. That works! Once you put your own stuff on there, it will look fine. Now to find the proper size. I'm inclined to guess it's going to be either the exact same size or US Game card size, but who knows, maybe they'll throw us a curve ball and make them poker size (MTG size?). I'm going to resist the urge to print any new cards until we know the precise measurements just in case!

Love it or hate it, I'm sure there will be some use for such assets at the end of this year when the remake comes out.

I use Paint.net these days and I am looking for a proper plugin to open GIMP files (I found one but it was glitchy), but once I do that I'm set! Just having the pngs and knowing the fonts is a great head-start.

In the cards they showed us, I see they've gotten rid of the superfluous "starting armor" thing, though I, and many others have created heroes that actually do start with armor.

I think I'd make those ever so slightly wider if they're intended to be poker-sized. You're not quite extending out the full 36px bleed, and you've made some assumptions about the shape of the corners. It's possible this will be quite fine, but it's actually another reason I sort of think a borderless design might be good.

I just had a look at the best picture I could get of the proposed artwork. I dunno. I don't dislike it (apparently some people do…) It's definitely digital artwork, but it's not BAD digital artwork. I kinda expected it to be.

I wonder if it's not going to be more the direction that we prep remakes for classic game integration.

I think replacing the hero boards with cards makes a LOT of sense, personally. Why make things more complex than they need to be?

Here's one (remake style) I've been using...

One can go both ways of course!
