I am re-reading the rules right now after a long time away (since release) because we have a group that is going tobe playing a campaign starting Saturday. We plan right now to just use a GM deck for Alpha Mutations and Omega Tech but I would still like to know the following answer to my question in case we get any players that wish to use their own deck.
If players have their own decks when do they draw from the GM's deck as opposed to drawing from their own deck? The rulebook doesn't make this explicitly clear.
Thanks in advance!

I think that is more up to the DM than anything else.
When I run I don't even use a DM deck. I just give the players decks.
Though in the book I believe that there is something about rolling a die and the result tells you what deck to draw from. I can't remember because I never use the rule.

I don't remember seeing anything about rolling a die to determine the deck to choose from. I will have to browse through it again. I think that is more up to the DM than anything else.

I could be mistaken. I know for sure there is some way in the book to tell which deck to draw off of. It has just been awhile since I have read through it.

I heard WotC is supposed to release a Deck of Many Things for Gamma World in Dungeon this month. Have they done that yet? I'd subscribe again just to get it! I don't sub now because they haven't supported Gamma World in any way through their digital initiative and I don't play D&D any more.

I did notice it details for you to draw from the GM's deck when you suffer Alpha Flux. I could be mistaken. I know for sure there is some way in the book to tell which deck to draw off of. It has just been awhile since I have read through it.

Greetings.
In reference to alpha mutation decks, the only refference I have found at the moment is on page 67 of the main book. If you flux you draw from the game masters deck.
Omega tech cards
Page 69 of the main book under 1. Omega check. Says that if your gm says you found an omega tech Item You roll a d20, if its 10 or higher you can choose to draw from either the GM's deck or your own, On a 9 or lower you draw from the GM's deck.
I'm not sure how many people actually use that rule. Our Gm lets us draw from our own decks when we find something.
Hope this helps.

I was plan on just using the GM deck since the players donot have their own cards. Would you all suggest I simply make one deck each for Alpha Mutations and Omega Tech and have each player draw from them OR give each player their own personal deck of around 10 cards each to use from my deck during the game, only drawing from my main GM deck after that when Alpha Flux occurs/when finding a new piece of Omega Tech?

None of my players have cards so they draw from the GM deck. I like the extra randomness drawing from a big deck. I think it would get bland seeing the same cards being used every several sessions if the players had their own decks.

I think I agree with you, Feetz.
