Gen Con is almost over! :-(

I've talked to so many people here at Gen Con and there has been some great feedback on Character Cards 2.0.  I know that  a lot of you are watching the project right now and may join in over the next few days as you return home.

A couple cards that I'll be adding soon for "free", meaning that no stretch goal will be needed to unlock these.

First is a generic card. This will include spell tracking, HP, AC, and other trackable items found in every character regardless of class. This will allow you to take the card to any game and play any character. It will still include a rolling tray, dice pool, and tablet slot.

Second are cards specific to a general class, but without subclass. This will allow you to track any specific class, but not the subclass specific things in that class.

These features will give their users a little more flexibility in using the cards. But don't worry, all of the sub class cards will also be available; I'm not taking any away, just adding some that will give you all another options.

In other news.....Hrothgar is one tired old warrior right now.  Gen Con has been absolutely crazy. I don't know what the attendance numbers are, but it feels like they must be close to being back at the peak numbers of 2018-19. It really feels like conventions are getting back to 'normal'. The energy is high, everyone is excited about getting back together in person, and traffic is virtually non-stop. While I'm not glad that it'll be over tomorrow,  I'm in dire need of a couple days of rest.

I'll be back in touch Monday. If you can, take a second to share the project and help spread the word.

Coming to you from Gen Con

Hello everyone and thank you for backing this newest project. I'm at GenCon this weekend promoting the new Character Cards, so if you are here, stop by booth 2820 and take a look at the cards first hand.

One question I've received already is whether there would be a more "generic" card available. The short answer is yes. I will work on a design when I return home, so expect that by the end of next week.

They are about to open the doors here, so I gotta take off, but I wanted to let you know where I am. I'll be checking in throughout the day, so be sure to leave a message in the comments section with any questions you might have.

Thanks!

John
