Delta Deck: cards for playing G40 Delta house rules

[CWO Marc]

@Young:

Still looking for a better “Commonwealth Aid” image.

Here are two possibilities, with a third to be posted right afterwards.

[CWO Marc]

This one is anachronistic in origin, but not obviously so in terms of its appearance.

[Young Grasshopper]

these are great options, the first being the front runner, the second feels very American but the art work might win me over, the third has no WW2 vibe to it.

[CWO Marc]

Here’s a suggestion for Kamizaze Honor and one for Modernized Shipyards.

The text of your shipyard card, by the way, says “Subsmarines”.

Also, here’s a link to some nice aircraft paintings:

If you end up liking both, you could use the second one for War Time Production.

[Imperious Leader]

Yep perfect!!!

I hope this is the start of something good. I would begin to create AA50 cards and Milton Bradley ( random event deck)

[CWO Marc]

Two Russian Winter suggestions.

[CWO Marc]

Tankograd and Airborne Assault.

I’m absolutly in love with the other images as is, the only ones I’m looking to improve on are…

Commonwealth Aid
Blitzkreig Tactics
Trans-Siberian Railway

here are a couple possibilities for commonwealth aid going in the direction of merchant shipping escorts from Canada…

[CWO Marc]

Vive la France.

I prefer the first one.  The one showing an escort ship ramming a U-boat doesn’t really convey the concept of cheaper industrial production.

Agreed, it’s just that it’s so dark and gray… I think I’m gonna use one of the pics you found, maybe the tanks.

Gotta say, I’m having lots of fun with this.

The 1st image is for the “War Time Production” advantage, and the 2nd image is for the “Commonwealth Aid” advantage (cards have been updated on page #1).

[Young Grasshopper]

FOUND IT!!!… I’M SOOO HAPPY!

Blitzkrieg Tactics advantage card has been updated on page 1 of this thread, I even put it through the filter to sharpen the image a little and it looks perfect.

YG,
Thanks for cluing me in on how you plan to use the Airborne Assault, War Time Production, Long Range Aircraft and Modernized Shipyards cards. Placing each card out with the country roundels on them is a really great idea.
Also, I didn’t take into account cards for the Strategic Objectives. Really great that you managed to make it exactly 54 to make use of a full Artcow deck.
The pictures you are using are looking great. I can’t wait until you get these finished so I can get a deck for myself.

Nice… definitely the right one there.

Did you happen to see the new “around the clock bombing” image?

[LHoffman]

@Young:

Yeah, I made a point to go back and look at that one. Excellent choice! I think these cards are really, really nice and your choice of images is perfect. I particularly like the artistic style and believe it fits perfectly with the game.

I am excited to see these in print and would love to get a deck of my own.

Question:  What kind of finish do you anticipate having on the cards? My personal opinion is that I would not do glossy (I am imagining a deck of playing cards). Just seems like it wouldn’t have the right feel. Though I don’t know what options you have with Artscow.

Still finishing details in illustrator, than I gotta separate and convert each card into their own PDF file, than I’ll work in artscow but unsure right now as to different finishing coats they offer. I’m hoping to have the deck available to order from artscow 2 weeks from today, that’s the deadline I’m giving myself, do you think your Global group will try Delta if they have their own deck?
