Updated with suggested changes. I like both versions, but have a personal preference for the first version...

Wow, these right here are top notch!  Very nice job, indeed. 

AH_Anarchy, I printed out a set of yopur nice looking cards and realized a significant problem with them. I have a Cannon MP600 series printer (not cheap) but the white letters do not show well on such a busy background. You might want to lightened the background and/or change the print to black letters instead of white.

The card back looks nice, but I put my cards in a card sleeve protector. That way they can tap their origin encounter powers, like their alpha and omega cads. This allows the DM a quick and easy way to check the power left available to the group in case you want to do a running fight and really test their abilities.

CrazyKobold, I wouldn't suggest printing these on an inkjet. Printers are very inconsistent, especially when it comes to color. You are just not going to be able to match the vibrancy and color of a color laser with an inkjet. I took the pdf to Staples and it was well worth the $5 to print there. The text is very readable on the color laser output.

What weight paper did you use, and did they cut it or did you have to?

Hey Battles,

Did you ever finish your cards?

In this same vein, AH_Anarchy, do you think having a card for the origin itself, not just the powers would be cool as well? I'm tempted to deconstruct your cards and generate the actual origins as well (perhaps using the blue background one)...That would set this set as the de facto origin card set for me...

I'd echo this - I've got a really high-end inkjet, and a test print came out pretty passably. Another test on a lower-end one came out looking like dirt. So I will be doing the same as Anarchy - I think $5-$10 for a set of these at a professional printers will be well worth the money. Might even spring for the cardstock if its not too expensive, we'll see.

Mmm. I didn't ask for any special paper, so I think they used 22-30lb. I cut the cards out and shoved them in front of some spare CCG commons in sleeves. No back.

I saw some half-sheet origins, I think from Battles, and I was planning on using those. If you'd like, send me a PM with your email and I'll forward you some blank templates that you can use.

Just read through the thread and you'll find the links. It's about page 4 I think? It's page 2: community.wizards.com/go/thread/view/758...

The PDFs are linked in post #19 (thanks ExcalibursZone for the link!)

You can take them to an office supply store or Kinko's to get them printed on a color laser, then you cut them out and sleeve them.

Or you can edit them in Photoshop or GIMP and make them individual images. Then upload to a place like Artscow and have them make you a custom deck of playing cards. You'll want a card back, like one that was posted earlier.

I am lucky enough to have a color laser at home so I'll be printing these puppies out on cardstock with a back. And if AH_Anarchy is OK with it, I would like to let the Game Day players keep their origin cards as a gift.

Keep in mind that printing these on an Inkjet printer is not the best solution since the text may blur.

I would say: We don't. That way WotC won't get upset with us. Afterall, if we went and designed better cards and then started sharing them, why would people buy the boosters from WotC? I'd rather see new material come out instead of losing the line because they can't support it.

Kinkos did 3 copies on 90lb cardstock (which is a bit lighter than index card 110lb cardstock) in color for about $26 (so a bit over $8.50 a set) via the web and I just went in and picked them up.  Staples sounds like it was alot cheaper.  Did you just go in and hand them a memory stick and said I need X copies of this on paper?

Anyone tried putting this stuff into godeckyourself.com? while not nearly as nice as the ones I'm seeing up here (not by a longshot) it's pretty easy.

Yep. Gave them a flash drive and had them print it on whatever was in the tray (22-30lb). Was about $4 per set. I had some City of Heroes CCG cards, with a nice black border. Cut the GW cards, used a CCG card for stiffness and placed in a sleeve. About 1 hour work to get the set ready to play.

AH_Anarchy, great cards! I know its asinine to ask you to do more work after creating those, but would you think about creating something a little simpler in Black & White that we can print out from our home printers?

Your cards are formatted great and really fit Gamma World, but I'd love to just run off page from my inkjet whenever the need arises.

Black and White? Ehhh. I did a quick test and removed all the background textures, changed the text color to black. They're pretty plain, but should print without trouble on home printers.

Is this what you are looking for?

 

If that will work for you, let me know.

Anarchy, I'm not the original requester, but those really would work good for me. I try to save on my printing costs and ink whenever I can...

The B&W would be OK, but I prefer the color

You're not wrong Excaliburs, the Color does look much better, but I'm not going to spend the money on color and cardstock from Kinkos if I only play Gamma World once. I've cajoled my regular group into letting me run a session next week, but Sci-Fi people they aint, so these will be great as throwaways.

Thanks for pulling that together so quick Anarchy, great job!

Black and White card PDF is here:

www.zeroradiusgames.com/BGG_files/gw_pow...

 

Excellent as usual.  Thanks for the Black & White versions.  I can see making cards like these for the custom origins being developed in this forum.

Thanks again!

Thanks! They look great.

Something occurred to me this morning, what about an Ammo Card? Straight up when you have Ammo, tap it when you use it 1 in an Encounter, discard it when you go all out.

What do you guys think? 

I think Tallyrand already has something like that. take a look on the first or second page of the 4E Gamma World House Rules.

There is a nice ammo card as part of the Random Junk cards that MVincent made, found on my blog.

Has anybody thought to do critical hit cards?

Anarchy, the Custom Origins set of 20 origins is done now. There's a pdf up in the thread for you to take a look at, and I still definitely love it if you'd make a set of cards for those too

I'll check it out. Thanks for the heads up!

Picked up my GW box set over the weekend and am hoping to have my first chance to run it tonight, but I was immediately dissatisfied with the provided character sheets. They are far too small, do not have nearly enough space for skills and gear, and the colors, well, eww!   I really have to wonder if anyone at WotC actually tried playing a game with those things before they were approved and printed?

That being said, thank all of you for your efforts to provide a better solution!

AH_Anarchy's cards look freaking sweet, but it sounds like they don't do very well on inkjets, and I won't have time to get to a professional printer before game time. That being the case, I decided to try a combination of Oraibi's simple and elegant character sheets with Battles' origin half-sheets. It seems like those should cover everything the players need to know and track very well.

You guys are awesome, and I am looking foward to my first GW game much more now that I have some decent tools to make character management easier.

Anarchy: Great work!  Those cards will speed up the process so much when creating characters instead of passing around the singular book to have people write things down... plus they look amazing and are in a farmiliar format.

Battles: The link you posted has been down all day.  Donno if its a permanent thing with Mediafire, but just wanted to give you a heads up.

Thanksto all the work that you guys have put in to make the game that much better for the rest of us!

These sheets are absolutely invaluable.  Thanks a lot Anarchy and Battles I get the same issue as PacificDnD, not able to download as of yet.

I finally got around to rolling character with the kids and my nephew.  We have a Android Pyrokinetic, Empath Felinoid and an Empath Seismic.  I ended up Hypercognitive Human.

Is this the extent of the fluff for each origin? I was looking to create handouts for players (assuming my playtest of this on Saturday goes well) to give my players that has all the fluff they need (I was considering using Anarchy's cards so repeating the novice, utility and expert info wouldn't be necessary. Although if that's all the fluff available on each origin I may just hand those out to my players and e-mail them Anarchy's awesome cards).

Ideally my players will spend $0 on Gamma World (I'll be running DM decks only as a house-rule. Given some of the players I'll be playing with, building their own deck would only cause them to spend a lot of time pouring over all the options and trying to build the optimal and perfect deck. From what I've seen that would defeat the whole purpose of Gamma World. Character creation should take 10-15 mins MAX and if people are spending hours trying to build perfect decks, then that's a lot longer then the 10-15 mins). So if I can get all the rules into the players hands easily then that will make me very happy. I've been going through the excerpts and previews to jot down as many of the rules as I can find. My "Player's Guide to Gamma World" is currently 5 pages long. 1 cover page, 2 pages for setting fluff (with one of those pages being a "Map of the Known World") and then 2 pages of mechanics I've discovered so far.

No. Most origins also have an "Appearance" entry that gives some hints as to what your character would look like. In the end, I had to leave them off to save space.

Good call: In a system where a Seismic/Yeti could very well end up being declared as "Bobo the Dancing Bear" any sort of set appearance entry is really kind of silly.

... I played a Yeti / Gravity Controller named Bobo the Circus Bear. He juggled (ranged weapons), rolled around on a ball, wore a fez, and carried the door of his cage to hit people with.

He was an homage to Shelly Mazzanoble's Oso de la Fez.

If what you are asking is information on what each origin is about, looks like, or functions, then the answer is more or less "Yes, that is all." There IS an appearance entry, but all that really is is a general suggestion on what you probably look like. Gamma World is extremely fluff-light, and actively encourages players to make up things in terms of how their characters look and function.

As an example, to paraphrase a number of sidebars, origins like Rat Swarm could be interpreted in the following ways:

1. A swarm of tiny humanoid mutated rats, each armed with thier own armor/weapons.
2. A writhing mass of rodents crammed into a humanoid shape.
3. As #1, but could be say, cats, or birds, or anything else related to your other origin.
4. As #2, but again related to your other origin.

Thus, an Android Rat Swarm could be:
1. A swarm of robotic rats armed with micro lasers.
2. A mass of robot rats that transform Voltron-style into a single humanoid.
3. Replicators from Stargate, or something similar as a nanite.
4. A single giant robot rat that can fragment into smaller pieces.

Really, theres no need to include fluff for your players - let them make it up!

Thanks I've been talking to one of my players about the possibility of some Gamma World adventures (I want to play it myself first to see whether or not I like it, but based on what I've read I think its just the ticket for me). One of the things he mentioned was he didn't even know what some of the origins looked like. So I came looking for some more fluff for him, but I wanted to see if there was anything more then what the PDF had.

Thanks a lot to everyone for their hardwork here. Its certainly made my job easier

Probably, but I haven't picked up Famine yet, and won't until after Christmas (and it might be a little longer than that, we sorta blew through our gaming budget a couple times over this month).

Anarchy, if I had the money and I knew where you lived, I'd buy the expansion for you. :D (Sadly, the first is more limiting than the second, broke right now.)

Thanks for the kind thoughts, Oraibi... ^_^ Happy Holidays!

  Please tell me that you got Famine in Far-Go for Christmas.  I just played with the new character origins on Wednesday night and Ryder my Wheeled Electrokinetic motorcycle centaur who seems to think he's in an action movie is the greatest character I have ever played.
  I don't want to face the future in a world where your awesome character origin cards don't cover the new ones that come out.  You know what you've done, don't you?  You're created gamers dependent on your next creation.
  PS:

PS:  Is there any way to get links up on the Zero Radius Games page to your origin cards?  I've only found them because of links someone has sent to me.  Also, could you post the link to the back side of the cards?
  You have done an awesome job.
  Thank you.

PPS:  Is there a way for you to make fillable cards as pdf's?  I just ordered the Gamma World boxed set and Famine in Far-Go from Amazon (today was my final day to use my Amazon employee discount), so I'd be willing to type in the new powers in order to get them made...

Thanks for the kind comments. I traded for Famine in Far-Go and will be working on the new origin cards very soon.

In theory it's possible to release fillable cards, but I've never done it. 

Just create a PDF with form elements... though that would be limiting in text, you'd have your fillable cards...

  That's fantastic.  Really, your cards are the best thing I've seen for Gamma World yet.  They are so incredibly helpful during the game.  I'm surprised WotC hasn't offered you a job yet.

  - Rebis

AH_Anarchy, love your cards. Looking forward to the Famine ones. I printed out 2 sets and placed them in black card sleeves, then I hand out whatever cards go with each players origins.

They lay them out with their Alpha's (which I have in Green card sleeves). Omega Tech are in Purple sleeves.

AH Anarchy, I love your cards and would love to get a set of Famine in Fargo ones! Awesome.

I agree, Anarchy. I'm excited to see your FiFG origin cards. What a great help during a game.

Thanks for all the nice comments. Made my day! ^_^

Thanks to ExcalibursZone and privateer4hire (BGG) for major help. Please let me know if you find any errors or typos. Once these pass muster, I'll do the B&W versions, but it's a pain to maintain multiple versions, so I don't want to make those until these are certified as good. Cheers!

I agree though insulting the simian will not do wonders, unless you rolled a simian and a gelatinous in which case that would be correct

There has been no eratta for GW, as yet.  I can only assume that it's a mistake, though, otherwise it's absurd, there's just not reason for it (the Yeti's, at least, being encounter, as well as minor, made a little sense).  

I have decided to rule that all Novice powers are standard-action, at-wills, period.  Just think it works better that way.

Has anyone asked Wizards customer service? I thought they answered questions like this for previous versions of D&D... The cards will get updated if we can get an answer or some errata.

I'm pretty sure they answer questions by flipping a coin.  Either that or they get bored and give you off-the-wall answers to amuse themselves... 

...well, or people make up CS responses to post on the forum...

AH_Anarchy...

Your work has convinced me to start using Gamma World for my Saturday Night Games with my group. I had been looking into the game to see whether it was worth it, and after playing one game and seeing your work I am truly motivated to continue with it.

Thank You.

Awesome cards!
Are you going to upload the collection?

The Mutant Color version has novice powers colored green, utilities blue and experts purple. Encounter powers are marked with an atomic bomb.

The Alternative version has green at-wills and purple encounters. There is no blue.

You're my hero, thanks so much for making these!

These cards are awesome! My players are gonna love 'em!!!

I came to Gamma World late compared to the rest of you. I played it for the first time at DDXP during the DM's Challenge.

I want to throw my hat in the ring and thank AH-Anarchy for all his hard work and enjoy using the cards he made to introduce the game to my fellow local DnD players.

Umm I am having problems finding the power cards for Famine. Did I miss the link or is Anarchy still working on them?

Hey i love the origin and power cards!!! is anyone working on the Legion of Golds new origins and powers? Or maybe even the vocations!? Wishful thinking but i'd love to see monster cards sometime as well! Those would prolly have to be put on oversize cards though! Keep up the great work guys!

Hey Anarchy i was lookin through your cards last night and noticed a little error on Wheeled, in the flavor text you use "you" in a spot it doesnt really belong so it sounds wierd when you read it i'm not at my pc so i cant give you the exact line, but i think it is on the trait card. It isnt a big deal but i figured i would let you know. Thanks a TON for all your hard work. The cards are awesome they help me and my players keep track of when they use one during an encounter so we cant possibly use it twice i have them either twist the card sideways or flip it over.

Here are the Famine in Far-Go power cards:

Thanks to ExcalibursZone and privateer4hire (BGG) for major help. Please let me know if you find any errors or typos. Once these pass muster, I'll do the B&W versions, but it's a pain to maintain multiple versions, so I don't want to make those until these are certified as good. Cheers!

Anarchy, you are amazing - as before, I LOVE these cards.

I was wondering if you were going to release a set in the 3-color (green, purple, blue) color scheme that you had for the original origins set?  I find it much easier to visually distinguish my cards that way, and I'm hoping to pull together a set of the new origins to match my original set so I can just mix them all in

Also... have I mentioned that you are a ROCK star and that I wish I was half as talented in Illustrator as you are?

Realy, I have to thank you!

 this is the best thing going! I run a game at my FLGS, and for chacter creation I cut out all the cards and placed the powers behind the origins in individual plastic sleaves. Then I shuffeld them and had the players draw randomly...

 It works great, all the players are individuals since there is no chance of two characters having the same origin, and it moves things along fast.


I hope you do the legion box on day, but even if you dont, thanks!  

Hey, these are really great cards! Thanks a lot! What program did you use to create these? Would it be posible to get a copy of your original, editable, files for customization? Both the origin trait cards and the power cards?

Would love these!  If you don't own em, I'm sure an amazon wishlist or something might quickly be able to get them to you quickly...

Were the LoG cards ever created?  My 12 year old son is running the Gamma World game for myself and his twin 8 year old brothers and they are loving it.  The power cards really make things a lot easier for them to see what they have as powers and what they can still do (just flip over the Encounter power card when you use it).  I have printed off the original box set and the FiF cards already and was hoping the last box set will get the same awesome treatment.  Play aids like these make gaming so much easier and fun for the kids!

Norse, yes, the LoG cards were done. You can download them from here:

Wow, how did I miss these? They're perfect for my game. Thought you'd like to know that these are still getting used! (I feel like this thread needs to get stickied)

AH_Anarchy, great cards! I know its asinine to ask you to do more work after creating those, but would you think about creating something a little simpler in Black & White that we can print out from our home printers?

Your cards are formatted great and really fit Gamma World, but I'd love to just run off page from my inkjet whenever the need arises.

Thanks!

Black and White? Ehhh. I did a quick test and removed all the background textures, changed the text color to black. They're pretty plain, but should print without trouble on home printers.

Is this what you are looking for?

 

If that will work for you, let me know.

Was there ever a link to B&W Legion Origin Cards?

I'll take that as a "no".
