Hi all
Here are some links to some card templates I’ve created that I thought I would share as they may be useful to people, the templates are PowerPoint files and work for PowerPoint 2007 and above
The general idea was to create a set of fairly generic cards that players could use to create a deck that could be easily adapted for different games.
There are 2 templates that I’ve created and each one shares some settings,
Each slide has 3 cards on it, the cards are designed to be printed out on A4 paper and when cut out and folded should fit into a standard card sleeves (like the ones the cool kids use for playing games like magic the gathering)
Template 1 -
DonnyBrook Cards template v2
This has the 3 default cards (end turn, reload, event) plus 4 sets of templates which cover 4 different armies, I want to play Donnybrook using some great Northern War figures so I very done those first, plus I’ve included templates for British and French armies as well.
Each card has the army name, a coat of arms (stolen from Wikipedia) and a generic unit name (like unit 1, unit 2 etc) all of this info can be changed to match your own armies
Template 2 -
DonnyBrook unit cards
Is an alternative to the roster sheet and contains the info on a single character or unit and uses the same naming convention as I have on the activation cards, which means when the Swedish Unit 1 card is turned over the Swedish player knows that Unit 1 is the Musketeer unit with the attached standard bearer
As these fit in card sleeves you can write on them using a dry marker and it will wipe off after a game.
below is a link to an example card deck I’ve put together for a game, so you can see how to edit the cards

And finally here’s a picture of some sample cards
I hope these are useful
Cheers
