Using the Card Creator to print updated Class Deck cards?


Pathfinder Adventure Card Game General Discussion

I think it's awesom that we'll be able to buy errata decks for RotR.

I'm wondering if we can get permission to use the images of cards in the Class Decks (or S&S) that have errata, so that we can use the Card Creator to order corrected copies.

Barring that, maybe we can buy updated copies of the cards directly from DriveThru at the Card Creator price?

We will likely create errata packages for Class Decks and for S&S in a couple of months, after we've had time to get player feedback on S&S 6.

On a related question, a friend and I were discussing the issue of multiple groups playing through an Adventure Path more or less simultaneously, and the issues this creates with regard to Loot. Where does or could the Card Creator fit into addressing the problem of multiple groups but unique Loot cards?

You shouldn't be keeping your decks built if you are playing with a different party, so that loot should be freely available just sitting in the loot slot of the box.

We are, so it's not.

Also, I'm not sure why, other than the loot issue, that would be the case.


You're shortchanging your parties because they can't use the boons which are in the other parties' decks.

Say there are three Cures in the box and one party has all three of them. The other parties just have to go without? This seems problematic.

I have two different games going on right now.

1) S&S OP
2) Home game

Essentially, we either take a picture with our phone or iPad before dismantling our home game character decks and going to OP. Is it inconvenient? A little. It basically just requires 10-15 minutes of extra set up ahead of time. Not too big of a deal in my opinion. Pictures definitely help though.

The printable character sheets on this site make it the easiest thing in the world Kolasi, I highly recommend you print them off. You just check off which cards you had (sorted neatly by type then alphabetically).

Shisumo, if that's what your doing, then I really wouldn't consider that a problem for DriveThru to "fix". As Elcoder mentioned, you're short changing your parties by locking them out of cards they should have access to. That's a personal choice and that's fine, but I wouldn't expect Paizo to allow print on demand options for game cards for things like that.

Plus, if you won't let them have access to other cards from the character decks that aren't playing, why should they get access to the Loot the other people hold anyways?

Mostly it doesn't come up - between the Add-on Deck and the class decks, we haven't had anything like the problems you're describing. Loot, though, doesn't duplicate like that, and it's also often the only reward a scenario offers. It's a rather different situation.


I also take photos. We used to use the printable character sheets, which were nice, but ended up being a lot of crossing out and scribbling after a few games. Photos are quicker too. And we use permanent marker on the card sleeves to keep track of skill/power feats, so if someone in another group wants to be the same character, we just swap sleeves :)

If I may throw my two cents in on the Loot question, it seems like it's a problem of your own making. The easy way to fix it is to record the character decks between groups. It pertains not just to loot, but any unique card. Say a character in one group has, say, Father Zantus, and you keep your decks. Then it's impossible for Father Zantus to appear in the other group. You're changing the mechanics of the game.
