Cut the Deck - Move Card final polish pass

Added 2023-09-24 21:30:23 +0000 UTC

Here's a little look at what I hope are the final designs for each Move card.

I'm currently going over everything in the game with a fine tooth comb - I'm going to share little bits and pieces as I do, so you know I'm working hard.

A player has access to:

2 Atttack! Cards - Use your Sword card to damage the opponent
2 Block! Cards - Negate an Attack from an opponent
2 Buff! Cards - Add a Buff token to your Hero
1 Cleave! Card - Spend all your Buff tokens to negate a Block card and deal Buffs as damage
1 Power Gambit! Card - Add 3 Buff tokens, but take double damage if you get hit this turn
1 Swap! Card - Swap your Hero or Sword card during combat
1 Remedy! Card - Heal your Hero or repair your Sword from damage/debuffs
1 Parry! Card - Negate an Attack and perform a counter Attack
1 End Them Rightly! Card - Throw your pommel at the enemy doing 1 damage, but only if they have 1 Health remaining

Silver banded cards can be played any number of ways, but you can only use one of the Gold banded cards during each Bout of combat (unless you're wielding Stabastian).

Like with the Tokens I shared earlier in the week, I'd like to do a set of printable Move Cards as well, with different art on them. Because these cards live in your hand and there are a set number of them, proxies are, in my opinion, totally okay.

I think it would also be great fun to make another set of Move Cards if we do an expansion next year... but let's just focus on wrapping up this version right now...
