Custom Weather Deck
 

I bought these laminated cards off ebay several years ago and don't see them on here anywhere, so I thought I'd share this interesting custom weather deck and make it available for reprinting.

I haven’t yet experimented with them much to this day, but I think the best implementation would be to choose specific cards out of the deck for your game.
Some of the rules on the cards are ambiguous and I’m unsure in what order weather is started, but perhaps some clarifications and rulings can be made.

These are amazing! Are these all pixelated cause they were photos you took? Any way to get them as scans or something a little "cleaner" This would be great to print off of scenario/campaign games or just a way to spice up a "normal" game.

Re: Custom Weather Deck
 

Yea, this is the best I could do with my phone camera. Ill see what I can do to get better images. My actual camera may work, or there’s a scanner I might be able to use.
The stat switching seems like it could be a lot to track of, but being able to take certain cards out should definitely help!

Re: Custom Weather Deck
 

How do these look @Sir Heroscape ?
Some of the pixel effect seems to be from them being laminated.
The colors look better and images sharper.. but I'm not sure I should have increased brightness any on a few of them.
I'll update them selectively by the ones that are lacking and can photoshop out unwanted marks.

Re: Custom Weather Deck
 

Interesting. Kind of weird as the duration is quite variable, could be a turn or a round or a whole game.
Really needs rules for how they activate.
This could really be expanded.

C3G has Weather Glyphs if anyone is looking for more inspiration.

Re: Custom Weather Deck
 

I really like this idea. It looks fun.

I glanced through and noticed misspellings of "bonuses" and "descends." Five spaces from any water tile is a *huge* reach for Tsunami. You also might want to offer thematic protection to ice & snow based units in the Blizzard card, as you did elsewhere for other units.

Thanks for sharing!

Re: Custom Weather Deck
 

It's a really neat idea that could probably use some streamlining and balancing! :-)

Re: Custom Weather Deck
 

Whoaaa, these are cool

Re: Custom Weather Deck
 

Was thinking the same when looking at the 1 turn stuff. (Tsunami specifically with its OM removal). I'm guessing that its intended as shorter activating weather, and that you'd continue to draw after each round. Though I really don't like the OM removal if that's the case, at the very start of the round. And not sure why Magical Atmosphere isn't just 1 round.

I'll have to check that out. Could help refine a few things here!

Thanks, for catching those. I'll see if I can correct them in photoshop. I'm not the creator of these cards, I bought these almost 5 years ago online.

Tsunami definitely worries me the most and both parties should be aware if it is being used in the deck. I would only personally use it if it were played on an ocean styled map with a lot of bordering water since it doesn't make sense to me with smaller amounts of water or ponds/rivers. What range do you think might be more fair?.. 4 or 3? I could see a snow movement exemption for snow moving figures. Will try and put that in.

Definitely.
Hopefully, with some community feedback, these can be refined into something better!

Re: Custom Weather Deck
 

Just found this thread...These are great.
Some are a little strange though. Gloomy Day and Sunny Day both last for one round and do...apparently nothing. Which I understand having a nothing or normal weather card (and the deck should probably be half nothing or normal cards) but it seems a waste to have two types of nothing.

But!!! The thought behind these is fantastic.

Re: Custom Weather Deck
 

These look really fun. Would like to see something like this tested and worked into a game mode or something. Great work.

They are made by James Hopkins. Just want to make sure he gets some credit for them. He is still selling them.
