Kickstarter - 5e Critical Hit Decks for Players and GMs

Ah, cards for RPGs. Never thought I would like something like this, let alone use them, but I've been enjoying the various monster, dungeon, NPC and other card decks I've picked up over the last year or so. Heck, my 5e monster cards just arrived yesterday.

I find cards real handy both at the gaming table as well as for inspiration away from the table. So, here I sit, at my desk, looking at the 5e Critical Hit Decks for Players and GMs has me thinking about using this in my StarSlinger setting for White Star. Because if there is one thing White Box gaming needs is more lethality :)

Nord Games does some good work and I suspect I could use these cards with Swords & Wizardry without much effort. Heck, when I get around to running a 5e session, these would be fun to add some extra bit of fun (because as I've said elsewhere, 5e lacks some of the lethality of the eralier editions)

Add some new flavor to your combat! Sure, double damage is pretty awesome when you score a critical hit, but what if your players got double damage and cleaved the orc's arm off?! What if you could impose lingering effects to your players?! What if game sessions could become more action-packed?! Well, good news! These card decks add a ton of new outcomes, both to the exciting 20 and the dreaded 1!

When your monsters score a critical hit, draw a random card from the deck for additional flavor and effects! These include lingering damage (bleeds), temporary and permanent roleplaying cues, temporary conditions, attribute and skill modifications, extra attacks and, of course, additional damage!
