Nov 01, 2010 21:32:07 I have searched and waited for the Players Handbook 3 and Psionic power cards to be released. Did I miss some sort of annoucement that they aren't going to be making them anymore? I'm currently playing two characters. A paladin and an ardent. I really prefer the pre printed ones I bought for my paladin then the print outs from the character builder for my ardent.

Nov 01, 2010 22:08:11 Another option is to take some of the blank power cards and scan them onto your computer, then use the text function of your Paint program (or GIMP, etc) to fill in the relevant information. I prefer to use those as opposed to the cards generated by the Character Builder, esp since when the CB describes a power with a lot of detail tends to be kinda small .

Hope this helps.

I don't think the PHB II power cards were as big of a hit as the PHB I cards were. What with PHB III presenting much more niche classes, I think WotC just decided to drop the whole endeavor.

A constant flow of errata made the power cards a lost cause.

Nov 04, 2010 23:44:24 OK, the power cards were kind of a cool idea but they HAD NO ARTWORK AT ALL and were just vanilla cards that my 2 yr old could draw on an index card. I mean really, the guys that make MAGIC THE GATHERING?????

Glad to see them go, besides they are already outdated.

Now if they would just snaz up the cards from the CBuilder...I would be happy.

I wanted artwork exactly like MTG stuff throughout the game... but they seem to be two separate arms of a big corp... with unrelated resources.
