<p>I've been using item cards for my own PC, equipping cards as the DM gives out treasure or as I purchase them, and I really love using the cards.</p>
<p>I bought a few booster packs to see how well they fit in with the non-random decks, and I thought they worked great. I got more of what I expected to get.</p>
<p>I showed off my cards to the other players and my DM, and they were kinda "hmmm" about it, until I showed them the five pages of cards I have in my character folio. I keep the cards in some 3-ring baseball card sheets. When they say everything from my character sheet on one card or another, they really liked the cards.</p>DeadDMWalking wrote:So this is a non-random deck?
