I'm a big fan of stat cards in games like Malifaux or Warmachine. They save me time looking up stuff in books or on printed papers and they look great. One of the things I wanted for Frostgrave was to do some character cards. So after some fiddling around in Photoshop I came with the following design:
So a basic character card with all the info. You can mark health, new items or temporary stat (de)buffs with a dry erase marker and have everything close by.
Here's one I made for my Templar:
(I added a second row of 10 health boxes for extra health options due to items or spells)
All of the images are Creative Commons CC0, so can be freely used and modified. A nice thing, because I want to have them printed at Printer's Studio. The only image not under CC0 is the Frostgrave background, but this is easily changed if Osprey desires. No problem
I am planning on doing character cards for all the characters in the game and to share the .PSD files and blank templates, so others can use them too if they want.
Before I'm off doing a lot of cards...any tips, ideas or changes?
