OK,
I really like the gear cards and we use them in our home game for all the players. (Even for normal equipment) But I would like to see some of the more common stuff that is used by EVERY player get put in a little more frequently. I just spent the last hour searching for a rope card and realized out of the four binders of cards I have that I have ONE rope card. I also only have one saddle bag card.
Almost every player makes a character with a backpack, rope, torches/lantern, clothing outfits, rations, waterskin, other misc food or drink (Ale, Wine, Meat, Cheese, Bread, Nuts, Etc) and a horse or other mount (and it's gear). Most of these cards are in the total collection... but only one or two cards.
I also stated in a past post that a dech dedicated to companions would be interesting. (Familiars, mounts, animal companions, etc.)
Overall I would like to see the packs or boxes have slightly less potions/scrolls/wands and add in more normal gear that repeats in variation over sets.
Overall I am happy with the product, I would jsut like a little more options.

I have good news and I have bad news.
The good news is that that's exactly why we created the Adventure Gear deck—each player can get one copy, and be good with most of the common starting gear.
The bad news is that that's exactly what everyone did, and so it's currently out of print. (Adventure Gear 2 is still available, but the items therein are a bit less ubiquitous; you want one of those for maybe every two or three characters.)
LOL. Yup. I have bought every box... and two of some... that has come out once I discovered the product... plus a couple dozen of the packs. But the very first run of cards was out of print by then so I missed that one.
OK, well if you can get another run of the out of print one in the future that would be great. If not then please keep the card addicts that missed the first set in mind when making some new cards for future products.
Same problem here, I own each and every deck, but there is only 1!!! reeal backpack in the adventure gear 1. Besides that tehre are only some bags and packs....but a backpack is owned by all characters around the table.
