I put in an entry for these in Portfolio52, but I did so under "Camp Cards" as that is what D&D are calling them. I didn't realize that Bradley Mountain were also selling them.

If anyone feels this should be changed or "Adventure Cards" added to the title, let me know or edit away... ;)

For the longest time, I thought the Bruce Lee deck was the worst deck D&D ever sold. I think these Camp cards took the title of worst deck from the BL deck. Incredibly weak, repeating courts. Almost makes me miss Brad Fulton. Almost. Anyways, the twins couldn't even wait one month after the release of the Camp cards before liquidating them off on Touch of Modern. If you have to have this deck (and I really hope you don't), they're available on ToM for the next 5 days. Check out the ToM sticky, Vasta updated the thread with all the D&D decks currently available on sale.

I think they are, now.

Wow, repeating courts, how lame. How come none of these design firms can figure out how to design a deck of cards? They all turn out like most of the Deckstarter decks. And why D&D and Art of Play keeps selling stuff like this I don't know. Personally I think if you are going to put in the effort to design a deck, then go the whole way and don't just design 3 court cards and a joker.

Well, I can easily see why a Design Firm created Deck would have repeating Courts. My day job is at a small, but extremely busy, Design Firm (http://www.motivemktg.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;). If a client came to us and said they had even a moderate $10k-$15k design budget to create a fully-custom Deck that included 12 unique Court Cards, my boss would laugh them out the door! That wouldn't come close to paying the amount of billable hours it takes to do something of that scale in an Agency environment. The sad truth is a fully-custom Deck is mostly suited for the solo Artist/Designer doing it on the side. Which is perfectly fine!!

Thanks, Randy

Yes because it was just screaming for a color change, oh wait the backs didn't even change color, just the tucks and faces. If anything you would think a deck like this would be in an outdoorsy green color or something. Pass
