[4 Winds Fantasy Gaming] Monster Knowledge Cards II


Product Discussion


Today we have started to publish the second volume of Monster Knowledge Cards. This set of cards is actual cards (Poker-sized).

The first batch contains monsters from Achaierai to Centipede, Titan.

Available now

More to follow if the first part of the set is viable.

Are you doing the "physical" product with the first set of cards too.. from Bestiary 1?

I am confused as to why this was done as actual cards instead of PDF's? The PDF is SO much more useful as it could be carried around on my tablet. Instead now I have to lug the cards around and to be honest it is going to be a pain to do a search for a particular creature.

I am disappointed. I am glad you are FINALLY coming out with these after so many many months of you guys (4 Winds Fantasy) promising to come out with these "soon" only to wait another year :(

The cards as a physical product saddens and disappoints me to say they least. Transport, storage and search the actual product is going to be such a pain!!

PLEASE COME OUT WITH A PDF too!!!!!!!!!


So if I understand you, you are saddened and disappointed that our Monster Knowledge Cards are cards.

Your sarcasm aside. I am disappointed that it is a PHYSICAL product only!!!! It should not be just cards.. but a PDF too!!

So no.. you did not understand me.

Also. Are you planning on doing the physical cards for the first set of Monster Knowledge cards... that were NOT cards but a PDF only??

You have two different products one is a PDF for the first bestiary and for the second you decided to go with actual cards INSTEAD of a PDF and that is what I was confused about. Hopefully that clarifies it for you sir.

So I guess I am looking for consistency in your product line for the bestiaries and right now you are not doing that.


It is our intention to publish the Monster Knowledge Cards as cards as this was the original intent of the series. The original monster knowledge cards were not published as cards because it was not possible to do so at the time.

Once all the cards for Bestiary II are done as cards we will examine the possible of publishing them in a print-at-home PDF format. But for now, the intention is for card products to be card products as we will be able to use them as promotional items at conventions and other venues.

What about the Bestiary 1 then?? Is that going to become physical cards too?

I am not understanding why you can't do both the physical AND the PDF at the same time? Since most of what you had done in the past is PDF's along side the physical product? We wait for 2+ years and do not get a PDF option should we choose to do so? If given the choice I would actually BUY them both and that is what frustrates me about your choice to do it as a physical product only.

Paizo knows this and creates PDF's for all their product now as they know they could actually make MORE money by doing so??

As far as you examining the possibility of doing the PDF.. based on how long these took to come out... well, I guess I will continue to be frustrated.

Thank you sir for clearing that up for me :)


Not a problem. Sorry we got off on the wrong foot (totally my fault).
